The Ramayana (Rama’s journey) is one of the great ancient Indian Hindu epics believed to have originated as far back as 400 BC. It centres around the adventures of it’s main hero, Rama. The epic is more than an adventure story, it is a highly moralistic tale full of allusion that can be interpreted as instruction for what is right and wrong behaviour. The words and deeds of the gods and characters in the Ramayana represent the classic battle between good and evil, where good triumphs in the end.

The Ramayana reminds me of Homer’s Western literature epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey. Like the Ramayana, the Iliad and Odyssey are hero centred around the main character, Odysseus. Homer’s epics recount Odysseus’ journey, his trials with the gods, demons, monsters and eventual return home to reclaim his kingdom in Ithaca.

The Ramayana beings with King Dasaratha who ruled his kingdom from the capital, Ayodhya. He had three wives but no son and heir to carry on his dynasty. After many years of prayer and sacrifice and desparate to have a son, his wives give birth to four sons! Kausalya gave birth to Rama, being the eldest was destined to be first in line for the throne. Kaikeyi gave birth to Bharata then Sumitra gave birth to the twins, Lakshman and Satrughna.

Rama and Lakshman were the closest and grew up together as inseparable companions. Both were highly skilled in the military arts, especially that of the bow which has relevance in the Ramayana. Rama and Lakshman are represented on the reverse side of these coins with their bow and arrow.

Rama married Sita and they lived at Ayodhya. Now aged, Dasaratha choose Rama to succeed him as king but his second wife Kaikeyi, through intrigue and deceit, compromised the king and had him promise to make her son Bharata become king instead. She also demanded that Rama be banished to the forests for fourteen years. Rama believed he was morally bound to this state of affairs and left for the forests. Sita was asked to stay but insisted that she accompany Rama as did his companion and half-brother, Lakshman. Within a week of Rama’s departure king Dasaratha had ‘conveniently’ died.

During these events Bharata was away and shocked to learn of what happened but reluctantly acceded to the situation. Immediately, Bharata left for the forests to seek out Rama to beg for him to return and accept his rightful throne. Having found him, Rama refused saying he was honour-bound to remain and complete his fourteen year exile. So Bharata returned and promised to rule Ayodhya as regent until Rama’s return, learning from the advice Rama gave him.

Much of Rama’s exile involves adventure, intrigue, battles and victories over those gods and demons hostile to him. At the same time he had met other friendly gods who understood Rama’s greatness so they remained as loyal allies.

A turning point in the saga comes when Rama, Sita and Lakshman were tricked by cunning and guile with the purpose of abducting Sita. Sita was taken to Lanka (Sri Lanka) and held captive by the 10-headed demon-king Ravana where he tried to persuade her to become his wife. Sita remained faithful to Rama.

Rama with Lakshman decided to seek out Ravana’s kingdom and recover his wife. On their journey they met the monkey-king, Sugriva and understanding each other’s situation formed an alliance. King Sugriva sought Rama’s and Lakshman’s help to recover his kingdom from his half-brother, Bali and in return would assist Rama to recapture Sita and defeat Ravana. Bali was killed and king Sugriva recovered his kingdom. True to his word, Sugriva raised a mighty army of monkeys then led Rama and Lakshman onwards to Lanka. Hanuman, an ambassador of Sugriva found out where Sita was being held captive and told her of Rama's plans. Sita became convinced when Hanuman gave her the signet ring presented by Rama. Hanuman eventually made his way back after causing much chaos in Lanka and informed Rama of everything.

A bridge was built and Rama with the monkey army crossed over to Lanka. Ravana’s army led by his sons had met in battle. Both sides suffered hugh losses. Eventually, Ravana’s sons were killed and their army defeated. So it came down to single combat between Ravana and Rama. After a long and fierce combat Ravana was killed, there was great rejoicing throughout the land having being delivered from his tyrannical rule.

Thereafter, the saga takes another turn after Rama and Sita are reunited. Their marriage was tested by doubt. Rama believed, or that others would believe, his wife Sita may have been unfaithful with Ravana during her long captivity. Sita felt publicily humiliated by this cruel rejection and was determined to prove herself innocent of Rama’s accusations so underwent the fire ordeal. If pure and innocent as she claimed the fire god Agni would protect her, Lakshman prepared the pyre. To everyone’s horror, including Rama’s, Sita threw herself onto the fl

From Lowly Esteemed - to Highly Favoured

What does God the Father see,
When He looks at you, looks at me?
Man, Woman, Child, Labourer,
Brother, Sister, Friend or Mother?
Or does He see the unfulfilled potential,
Of a life waiting to be lived in Him?
For each sinner is only too well aware,
That Christ crucified, has erased all of our sins.
For this same God has defined our lives
Before conception, birth, life and through to death
The same mighty God who fashioned the universe;
Naming all the stars one by one
Omnificient, Holy Lord,
Awesome in both deeds and words.
A God who gives purpose,
To each life that seeks His favour.
For even when King David failed
The love of God's heart did not waiver;
And so He poured out His blessings
So that all generations should know,
That He is the God of the ages
Whose steadfast love is both faithful and true.
The Bible recalls the names and events
From Geneses to the end.
And though there are painful footsteps
In the places where our Lord once trod
Moses, Job, Elijah, Priests and Kings,
All seemed to somehow get through
By lovingly offering up, their all, back unto God.
For although God is 'Father',
He knows the hearts of every mother
Where all their pains are felt by Him.
For there is no love like the love of a mother?
Only surpassing this, is the wonderful unchanging love of God our Father.
For all through our years, our silence our tears;
In our pondering over the joys and sorrows of life and living,
The King of Heaven stays close to those
Who have made their lives the centre of His Grace and Forgiving.
Much emphasis is given to God's manservant, Job,
Concerning his love, courage and humility.
But a maidservant was of equal courage
As in the Bible we read;
In 'Ruth', we hear Naomi's lamenting,
Being bitterly 'afflicted by God's hand',
For she went away with plenty,
But returned as just ONE.

One, that is, from her own blood,
For she had lost her husband, and both sons;
And were no l
