About the Book

This book is # 2 of the series "THE ESSENCE: A Collection of Short Stories from the Ancient Scriptures of India". It has 28 brief stories that the reader can utilize to learn from, pause and reflect on, and discover solutions to problems. It is a compilation of brief tales drawn mostly from the Ramayana by Valmiki and the Ram Charita Manas by Goswami Tulsi Das.
This collection is a gentle reminder of the wisdom that has been passed down through generations, illuminating the paths of righteousness, compassion, and self-realization. Each story carries the essence of ancient truths, transcending time, and space to touch hearts throughout the ages. The Ramayana's teachings have had a tremendous impact on humans, directing their behavior and offering a moral foundation for living a virtuous and fulfilling life. The ageless wisdom of the epic continues to inspire and appeal to people across religious and cultural barriers.

To keep the volume from becoming too long, the topics are divided into stories, characters, and philosophical approaches from beginning to end. This is my genuine attempt to keep the text as simple, focused, and authentic as possible. The main points of the stories, however, are included here. This book is especially useful for readers who are unfamiliar with the stories but would like to learn them. However, it is also useful for readers who already know the stories-or at least some of them-because this volume will refresh their memories and teach them many new ones.
Above all, it is a valuable resource for children. May the timeless stories contained in this book inspire readers to worship the Supreme Being.
According to Goswami Tulsidas, everyone talks about worshiping Lord Ram and having love, devotion, faith, and dedication to the Lord, but few people actually do it. Only when one is extremely fortunate does love and devotion for Sri Lord Ram germinate or arise in one's heart. Tulsidas means that it is simple to preach about having faith in Lord Ram and having devotion and love for him, but it is difficult to put it into practice. It is only when a person's accumulated good deeds begin to bear fruit that he is inspired and motivated to worship the Lord and have devotion to him. If it does happen, that man is extremely fortunate.
A person who becomes eligible to receive rewards for his meritorious deeds in life would usually prefer worldly things and material welfare that would highlight his success in the world, satisfy his ego, and fulfill his aspirations in this physical world, but rarely would one wish to have the grand spiritual reward of having love and happiness.
There is a popular verse in Hindu scriptures that conveys the idea of the chanting of Lord Rama's name being more powerful than Lord Rama Himself. This verse is found in the Ramayana, specifically in the Uttara Kanda. The verse is as follows: "Rama nama hi parama dhama, Rama nama hi taraka nama Rama nama hi vimala karma, Rama nama hi parama dharma "
This verse translates to: "The name of Rama is the supreme abode, the name of Rama is the liberating mantra,
The name of Rama is pure action, the name of Rama is the ultimate righteousness."
This verse highlights the belief that chanting the sacred name of Lord Rama holds great power and significance. It is considered to be a potent mantra that can bestow liberation and purity to the devotee. The verse emphasizes that the divine name of Lord Rama encompasses His divine qualities and is itself an embodiment of supreme spiritual energy.
