    JAGADGURU SRI SANKARACARYA SWAMIGAL OF KANCHI

    The RAM AYAN A and the M AHABHARATA are two of the w orld's greatest epics.
    The protagonists in both exem plify the code of conduct that people m ust endeavour
    to follow. Though both epics were com posed in Sanskrit, they have been translated
    into alm ost all the regional languages of our country, and also into several foreign
    languages.

    K am ban, the em peror of poets, hailing from Therazhundur of Thanjavur district,


    brought the Ram ayana to the people of Tamil N adu in Tamil verse, enabling everyone
    to understand it.

    Dr H Venkataram ana H ande has now rendered K am ban s w ork into English prose,
    to m ake it accessible to people all over the world and to arouse their interest in the
    epic. We are happy that the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, w hich has published several
    good books, has com e forward to publish this one, too.

    M ay the w riter of this book as well as those w ho read it, receive the grace of Lord
    Rama.

    N arayanasm riti.
