Ramayana - A Philosophical View.

Post by sriharisreeram » Fri Aug 19, 2016 5:09 pm

A worth while sharing:

The Interpretation of Ramayana as a Philosophy of Life...
"Ra" means light, "Ma" means within me.  In my heart.  so, Rama means the Light within Me.

Rama was born to Dasharath & Kousalya.

Dasharath means "Ten Chariots".  The ten chariots symbolise the five sense organs & five organs of action.

Kousalya means "Skill".  The skilful rider of the Ten chariots can give birth to RAM.

When the ten chariots are used skillfully,  Radiance is born within.

Rama was born in Ayodhya.  Ayodhya means "a place where no War can happen".

When there is no conflict in our mind, then the Radiance can Dawn.

The Ramayana is not just a story which happened long ago.  It has philosophical, spiritual significance and a deep truth in it..

It is said that the Ramayana is happening in our own Body.

Our
Soul is Rama,
Mind is Sita,
Breath or Life-force(Prana) is Hanuman,
Awareness is Laxmana
and
Ego is Ravana.

When the SOUL (Rama) cannot reach the Nind (Sita) on its own... it has to take the help of the Breath - the Prana (Hanuman) by being in Awareness (Laxmana).

With the help of the Prana (Hanuman) & Awareness (Laxmana), the Mind (Sita) got re-united with the Soul (Rama) and the Ego (Ravana) vanished.

In reality Ramayana is an eternal Phenomenon happening all the time...
