Ramayana exists at various levels:
Firstly it has the religious connotation but goes much beyond it.
Next, it is mega entertainment. The story was told to groups of people in the family, village and in satsangs. It was also performed on the stage with drama, music and dance.
Then it was a kind of instructional material that sets moral standards for human behaviour at different strata of the society under varying circumstances, and demonstrates ideal relationships within the family.
Fourthly it integrates Rama’s entourage with the animal kingdom in the form of an army of monkeys under that eternal loyalist Bhakta Hanuman, who assumes superman proportions.
Ramayana is a link for Hindus all over the world. Even the poor indentured labour sent to Mauritius and Fiji carried something of the Ramayana with them, while they had no other worldly possession to take with them.
It has permanence—it is relevant at all times, in all places and in all ages.

The fruit from the Ramayana
The Ramayana is the source of many stories told to adults and children.
It teaches:

importance of duty
correct behaviour
parental reverence
piety
friendship
justice
governance
peaceful co-existence between all God’s creatures
the respect and need to preserve the ecological balance and natural order of things.
The epic’s appeal lies in the human frailties it explores.
It is finally the victory of good over evil.
It is the viability of the utopian concept of ‘Rama Rajya’, in which Rama, the perfect and just
king ruled over a happy kingdom, free from want and war.

Ramayana: ramayan is one of the two greatest Indian Epics which teaches Humanity about the science of living!
How one must interact with another, relationships between different beings, respect one must pay to Parents and Gurus, all the while fulfilling the desires of the Lord (upholding Dharma at each and every stage) … Is the message conveyed!!
Nothing can be more pious and sacred than reading or hearing Ramayana! Bhagavad Gita and Upanishads (with deeper meaning) can not be understood by a common man but ramayana, in the dialect of a common man can be easily assimilated by all!

Origins of the Ramayana
The Ramayana is a Sanskrit kavya (poetry) and is part of the smritis.
It consists of 24,000 couplets and is believed to have been first written around the third century BC.
The incidents it narrates are said to have occurred in the Treta Yuga.
The epic tells the story of Rama, the seventh incarnation of Vishnu, who was born on earth to liberate mankind from the demon king Ravana of Lanka, and to re-establish righteousness in the world.
Along with Mahabharata and Bhagavat Gita, it has had a decisive influence in shaping the nature of Indian civilization.

Meaning of a Swastika :-
The word “swastika” comes from the Sanskrit svastika – “su” meaning “good,” “asti” meaning “to be,” and “ka” as a suffix. Until the Nazis used this symbol, the swastika was used by many cultures throughout the past 3,000 years to represent life, sun, power, strength, and good luck.

The History of the Swastika
The swastika is an extremely powerful symbol. The Nazis used it to murder millions of people, but for centuries it had positive meanings. What is the history of the swastika? Does it now represent good or evil?During the following thousand years, the image of the swastika was used by many cultures around the world, including in China, Japan, India, and southern Europe. By the Middle Ages, the swastika was a well known, if not commonly used, symbol but was called by many different names:
China :- wan
England :- fylfot
Germany :- Hakenkreuz
Greece :- tetraskelion and gammadion
India :- swastika
Though it is not known for exactly how long, Native Americans also have long used the symbol of the swastika.

Dharma is the practical experience of God. When a dumb man tastes candy, he experiences its sweetness, but he is incapable of describing it. Similarly, someone who has the divine experience forgets himself totally and is silent – this state of silence is ‘dharma’. So, dharma is the experience of the Self which is within each one of us. Swami Vivekananda said, “Religion means realisation”. When people preserve this experience in their lives, it is dharma. In other words, dharma is not book-knowledge but the practical experience of the Self and this experience is called atma-gyan or self-realisation. Real dharma is self-realisation.
So self-realisation is the soul of dharma. It is the basis of all religions.

Nind apni bhula ke sulaya humko,
Aansu apne gira ke hasaya humko,
Dard kabhi na dena uss khuda ki tasvir ko,
Zamana ma-bap kehta hai jinko.

.’.’.’ MAA ‘.’.’.
WOH is tarha mery gunaho ko dho deti hey,
MAA buhat ghusse mai ho to roo deti hy,
Labbo pe uske kabhi baddua nahi hoti,
Bus ek MAA hy jo mujhse khafa nahi hoti,
Jab bhi kashti meri manjhdar mai ajati hy,
MAA DUA karte huey khuwab me aa jati hy..

Nind apni bhula ke sulaya humko,
Aansu apne gira ke hasaya humko,
Dard kabhi na dena uss khuda ki tasvir ko,
Zamana ma-bap kehta hai jinko.
