Sriamayana in tweets: 1



I have got an idea just now. To compose Tweets, which tell SrIRamayana. From now on with numbers, I'll go. Let me check how I can go.

SR1: Emotion is the root for great literature. Maharshi Valmiki's grief resulted in a Sloka. That was the starting point of SriRamayana

SR2: The story of SriRama was first told by Narada maharshi to Valmiki, when he inquired about an ideal man.

SR3: So, SriRamayana is the story of an ideal man.

SR4: What are the criteria for being an ideal Man according to Maharshi Valmiki? In his own words...

SR4/1: The most accomplished, learned, powerful, noble minded, truthful, and grateful. The man with a flawless character.

SR4/2: The man who engages himself looking after the genuine welfare of all living entities. Clever, most handsome, and most pleasant

SR5: After his interview with Maharshi Narada, Maharshi Valmiki went with his disciple, Bharadwaja, to the banks of River Tamasa.

SR6: There, while he was meditating on the words of Maharshi Narada, an incident occurred which lead to the writing of SriRamayana

SR7: A Nishada, killed the male Krouncha bird, while it was in deep love-making with it's beloved. Maharshi Valmiki's anger knew no bounds

SR7/1: Krouncha, a sort of bird, according to some sources, it is a crane. Nishada, a hunter-man race. Here a man from hunting race

SR8: Upon watching the tragic end of the Krounchas, which were previously ecstatic in love-making, Valmiki cursed the Nishada

SR9: Soon after, Maharshi Valmiki struck with grief. Not only for the tragic end of the Krounchas, but also for his uncontrollable anger.

SR10: But to his surprise, his disciple, Bharadwaja pointed to him that his words while cursing the Nishada, came out in a rhythmic form.

SR11: Valmiki surprised with the words of his disciple, and thought about it. Unfortunately, even this surprise helped him overcome his grief

SR12: At that time, Lord Brahma manifested before him. He consoled the Maharshi, and explained him that all this was choreographed by him.

SR13: Lord Brahma: "The curse came from your mouth constitute a spectacular poetic meter. Anushtup. Using this, write the story of SriRama."

SR14: Lord Brahma: "All this had happened for greater good. With my blessings, even minute details of SriRama Charita will be known to you."

SR14/my words: Thus started the Greatest Epic known to human race, SriRamayana.
