Description

Extolling the virtues of Sri Rama and showing him undeserving of exile, the Emperor endeavours to dissuade Kaikeyi from her pertinacity in sending Sri Rama into exile. Quoting the examples of Harischandra and others, Kaikeyi, however, redoubles her insistence. The Emperor for his part rebukes her in harsh words and goes to the length of falling at her feet in order to bring her round but in vain.

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.
