Episode 73 – Raavan clashes with Ram

The Ramayan – Stories of Dharm and Devotion ·

2025/09/30

In our previous episode, the tide of battle surged with new force. The great generals of Lanka, Dhumraksha, Vajradamshtra, Akampana, and Prahasta, each roared into war with fire and fury in their hearts. And yet, each fell. One to Hanuman’s unstoppable strength. One to Angad’s blazing wrath. One to the unshaken might of Hanuman again. And last Prahasta, the lion of Lanka was shattered by the fearless Neel in a battle that shook the earth itself. Raavan had sent forth his pillars. One by one, they

Around them, the Vanar Sena stood stronger, wiser. New strategies were forged. Vibhishan revealed the secrets of sorcery in Lanka. Hanuman and Jambavan prepared to dispel illusions.

Episode 71 – The war resumes

2025/09/01

In our previous episode, night had fallen, and with it, the hopes of the Vanar Sena seemed to be dim. Indrajit, cloaked in illusion, struck like a phantom and brought Ram and Lakshman down with a web of deadly, enchanted arrows. Two warriors who had lit the battlefield like blazing suns now lay still, silent, wounded, unmoving. Fear swept across the Vanar ranks. Sugreev stood numb. Hanuman trembled, fists clenched. Jambavan’s voice faltered. Even the earth seemed to hold its breath. Indrajit

2025/08/20

In our previous episode, we stood at the edge of battle, where pride clashed with wisdom and truth walked boldly into the court of deceit. We saw how Raavan, desperate to shake Sita’s resolve, conjured a cruel illusion—Ram’s severed head and broken bow—crafted by the sorcerer Vidyujjuh to pierce the heart of faith itself. But Sita did not waver. Her soul, bound to Ram, saw through the trick—and faith rose where illusion failed. And then came Angad, son of Bali—Ram’s final messenger. He walked alone

In our previous episodes, we saw Ram display the perfect balance of compassion and might. When the spies of Lanka were captured, he released them unharmed, offering a lesson in honor and fearlessness. And when the Vanars built the mighty bridge across the ocean, Ram did not need to boast. A single, silent arrow—fiery and divine—was enough to shake the city of Lanka and send a message louder than words. That arrow did not destroy, but it warned. It did not roar, but it thundered. Raavan felt its

In our previous episode, the silence of the sea finally broke. Ram’s fury—fierce and righteous—shook the heavens, not out of rage, but to awaken dharm from its slumber. As the ocean rose with folded hands, it revealed its hidden path, and the Vanar Sena marched forward, their hearts ablaze with devotion. In today’s episode, we stand at the threshold of war. Portents stir the skies—wild omens ripple through nature, and Ram, with the eyes of a seer and the soul of a king, explains their meaning to

2025/06/30

In our previous episode, the winds shifted, and the shores of destiny stirred. Vibhishan, once a prince of Lanka, chose truth over loyalty, dharm over fear. Cast out by his own brother, mocked by a court drunk on pride, he soared across the ocean and stood before Ram—not to plead for shelter, but to offer his unwavering allegiance. What followed was a masterclass in leadership—where Ram, with clarity and compassion, welcomed the one who had walked away from adharm. Trust was tested, courage was

Episode 66: Ram’s alliance with Vibhishan

2025/06/16

In our previous episode, the halls of Lanka trembled—not from battle, but from the words exchanged between brothers. Vibhishan, noble in spirit and clear in conscience, stood alone in a court deafened by arrogance. His pleas for righteousness were mocked, his loyalty questioned, and his warnings dismissed. And so, with sorrow in his heart and truth as his only armor, Vibhishan rose into the sky—leaving behind the golden city he once called home. Now, he crosses the ocean—not as a prince in exile,
