श्रीमद्वाल्मीकि-रामायण-नवाह-उदयास्तमन-पारायणम्
(प्रसङ्ग-प्रकथन-सहितम्)

Navaaha-Udayastamana-Parayana of Srimad-Valmiki-Ramayana (Incident-wise short English description)

Srimad-Valmiki-Ramayana, often simply called Ramayana, is the first Bharata Itihasa attributed to the sage Valmiki. It consists of 24,000 verses across seven Kanda-s. Parayana (complete recitation) of Ramayana is believed to grant all worldly benefits and punya. Elders recommend completing Parayana of Ramayana in 9 days (Navaaha) for the best results. Accordingly, by SriRama's grace, Vyoma is conducting a 9-day parayana for world peace and prosperity. Each day the parayana begins at sunrise and ends at sunset, hence called Udayaastamana Parayana. Along with Parayana, there would be brief and simple English explanations for each incident to make the experience of listening more devotional, meaningful and blissful.

About the Teacher

Know More about the Course

The Srimad Valmiki Ramayana is the Adi-kavya that narrates the life of Bhagavan Rama. Composed by Adi-kavi Valmiki, it spans seven kanda-s and tells the story of Rama's exile, the abduction of his wife Sita by the demon king Ravana, and Rama's quest to rescue her with the help of his loyal allies, including Hanuman. The epic explores themes of dharma (righteousness) and presents moral teachings. It culminates in Rama's victorious return to Ayodhya and coronation of SriRama as the king of Ayodhya. In the Skanda-purana, it is said that -
"रामायणपरा ये तु रामनामपरायणाः ॥
त एव कृतकृत्याश्च घोरे कलियुगे द्विजाः ।" 
Those who are inclined towards Ramayana and who are always doing the japa of Rama-nama accrue a lot of punya in this Kaliyuga. 
Skānda-purāṇam, Uttara-khaṇḍaḥ, Nārada-sanatkumāra-saṃvādaḥ, Rāmāyaṇa-māhātmyam, 5th Chapter, 49th and 50th verses.
