It was throughout my tenure on the firm that I had a want to write the Ramayana on palm leaves however my lengthy working hours and schedule made it unfeasible. I made a decision to pursue my ardour after my retirement. Over the course of about 4 years, I transcribed Valmiki’s seven kandas of the Ramayana into a contemporary, understandable rendition that might be simply understood by at this time’s technology. Presently, I’m contemplating presenting these Talapatras on the Bhadrachala Sri Sitaramachandra Swami’s Devasthanam throughout this yr’s Sri Ramanavami celebrations.
