    Description

    Reaching Ayodhya, the counsellors of Janaka tell Dasharatha how Sri Rama broke the bow of Lord Shiva in Janaka's custody and won the hand of his daughter, and convey to him their master's invitation for the wedding, on which Dasharatha makes up his mind in consultation with Vasishta to depart for Mithila at an early date.

    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.
