Shubha Vilas on "Making Ramayana Relevant to life" In Conversation with Priyanka Sharma

On 27th Nov 5.00 pm - 5.40 pm

“The research work for this book was pure nectar. I enjoyed studying our scriptures. I immersed myself in them. I observe, meditate and learn teachings of the great wisdom of our seers and sages. I object to the word Mythology as it suggests a fiction in which something never happens. For us, these scriptures should be “Itihasa”, i.e. History. I heard Ramayana from my grandmother and my teachers, which was part of my growing. So I got attracted to Ramayana. I read much western literature as a child, but I was looking for something Indian. I thought to write the book and put it on the shelf, but it succeeded tremendously. The role of Hanumanji is to help you with stress, and that’s why people go to Hanumanji. There is a lot of learning from these scriptures relevant to us today. Children have the best question in the world. Out of the box question!! I didn’t struggle to write any of my books due to meditation and my love for the scriptures. My elders blessed me sufficiently to complete this task of writing books. If the first book is very good people expect more from the second. Ramayan has amazing stories to share.”
