Description

Applauding Bhagiratha, Brahma urges him to gratify the souls of his departed great grand-uncles by offering them the water of the Ganga, and after doing his bidding, Bhagiratha returns to his capital; the glory of hearing and reading the story of Ganga's descent on earth.

This podcast includes an authentic Sanskrit recitation and the reading of a genuine translation in English by Gita Press, Gorakhpur, India. This is not a western translation of the Valmiki Ramayana, nor a re-telling in any form. It is translated by Hindus from within the tradition, and it is thereby recommended as the most authentic recitation and English reading available. The Ramayana recitation by Sriram-ghanapaathi HariSitaramamurti-ghanapathi is taken from archive.org. The reading is from the English version of Srimad Valmiki Ramayan translation by Gita Press, Gorakhpur, India.
