as retold by William Buck
and read by Ram Dass
The Ramayana is many stories wrapped into one. It's a classic of Indian
literature, an epic battle of gods and humans and demons ... it's a tale
of good and evil, of the perfect king confronting a desire-mad demon
warrior ... and it's a transcendent tale of the Soul's anguish at its
separation from God and of the bliss of reunion.
This saga, first told by the Indian poet Valmiki more than two thousand
years ago, is brought to life for Western audiences in this wonderful
retelling by William Buck. Ram Dass brings to his reading of the story
both a profound appreciation of its spiritual wisdom and a story-teller's
delight in its rich tapestry of characters and its thrilling plot.
