Okay, let me tell you some Ramayana characters in several languages as far as I know.ĭasharatta : Dhasarata, Dosoroto (Indonesian, Javanese), Dasarata (Malay), Dasarath (Khmer), Dasagiri (Burmese), Thotsorot (Thai), Thotarot (Lao) In Indonesia itself, Ramayana is famous in Sendratari Ramayana (Javanese) and Ramayana version in Bali. Indo-China countries are mostly Buddhist, Malaysia-Indonesia are mostly Muslim while most of The Philippines adhere Christianity (except several predominately Muslim ethnic groups), Ramayana is survived and developed among them. In Burma its drama is called Yama Zatdaw, Ramakien in Thailand, Phra Lak Phra Lam in Laos, Reamker in Kampuchea, Hikayat Seri Rama in Malaysia, Kakawin Ramayana in Indonesia (especially Javanese and Balinese), and Maharadia Lawana (Maranao, The Philippines). It has been spread from India until South-East Asia and having got its own versions in various countries…especially in India itself, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Kampuchea, Malaysia, Indonesia as well as The Philippines (Maranao version).
Rama, with Sita, Lakshman, and his entire army, returned on the night of the new moon. The triumphant restoration of Lord Rama to his own kingdom is celebrated during the famous festival of lights, Divali. During his reign everyone was freed from misery. Eventually Rama killed Ravana, was reunited with Sita, and returned to his capital, Ayodhya. Rama’s army managed to gain the upper hand and many of Ravana’s sons were slain. The two armies met outside the city gates. Miraculously they floated, and the monkey warriors constructed a floating bridge to Lanka. Thereafter, Rama ordered his army to throw boulders in the ocean. Their general, Hanuman, eventually found Sita on the isle of Lanka. He eventually formed an alliance with a race of Varnaras (monkey-like people). Rama was beside himself with grief, but resolved to rescue his wife. Ravana, king of the Rakshasa race (man-eaters), heard of Sita’s beauty and kidnapped her. Despite the hardships, Rama actually enjoyed forest life, for it allowed him to keep company with the many sages and saints who lived there. His wife, Sita, and brother, Lakshmana, chose to go with him. The story tells of how Rama was cheated out of his throne and unfairly banished to the forest.
They set fire to his tail, but he escaped and burned down much of the city. Ravana’s men subsequently captured Hanuman. Brief summary of the storyĪ painting of Hanuman shortly after finding Sita. The Ramayana is the subject of many art forms, particularly drama, and is increasingly well known outside the Hindu community. Tulsidas’s version is extremely popular, but is shorter than Valmiki’s, excluding the final chapter about Sita’s banishment, the birth of her twin sons, and her disappearance. There are two principal vernacular versions the Hindi Ramcharitmanas by Tulsidas and a Tamil version by Kambha. Some date him back to the Treta-Yuga, whereas others consider him far more recent. Though academics consider the Ramayana a mythical account, Hindus consider Rama a historical figure, and an avatar of Vishnu. Indian scholars date Valmiki to the third millennium BCE. Scholars say that it received its present shape perhaps as late as the second century CE, but that it contains much older material. The Ramayana, “the Journey of Rama,” is a Sanskrit epic compiled by the poet-sage Valmiki. Rama goes to catch the deer and Ravana kidnaps Sita. Sita becomes enchanted by a magician diguised as a deer.
