RAMAYAN

Whenever we hear the name of the greatest epic of the Indian history, a few things come in our mind.

Sita's wait for her husband, Shri Ram's love for his wife, Laxman's duty and love towards his brother and sister in law, kaikeyi's curse, kaushalya's years of wait, Maharaj Dhashrath's pain, Urmila's sacrifice, Mandavi's and Shrutkirti's silent tears, bharat's agony, Shatrughan's helplessness, Sumitra's order to her son, Hanuman's devotion, Vibhishan's righteousness, Ravan's evilness and plight of the people of Ayodhya.

There are many other things that also come in mind. 

But something that never crosses our mind is there was a flame of righteousness burning in the dark evil palace of Lanka. 


There was a woman who was loved by Ravan but who failed to erase the evilness.

The woman who's chastity and purity got her a place as the panchkanya - The women who destroy sins.

She, who lost her husband, sons,brother in laws, family and people. She, who always stood by her husband.
She, who for her people and kingdom, sacrificed and remarried her brother in law to save her kingdom.

She, the forgotten queen of Lanka. 



Mandodari, 



The Bygone Empress.

The Inseparable Princes by Ramayana_lover
120 parts Complete
Ramayana. An Indian epic that has lived through the centuries and has only grown even more in the process. An epic that shows ideal characters, many of whom we worship, and other characters from whom we learn what we shouldn't be at any cost. But one thing that has been a constant for many centuries now is the examples we give, referring to the epic. One of the most popular ones being "Be a brother like Rama." Not only is the Ramayana an enchanting tale of love and devotion, but it's also an equally magical example of brotherhood and affection. Brothers who stood with each other through thick and thin. Brothers who would readily sacrifice their life for the other. Brothers who would love the other, and support him when nobody else did. This book brings to you the Ramayana, but this time, the limelight is on the inseparable brothers. *** Disclaimer: Please do not read this book if you do not like humanization of deities. However, I can assure you that ALL relationships in this book are shown the way they're meant to be - no non-canon shipping. I can also assure you, that since I myself am a devotee of Shri Rama, that you will never have me intentionally writing anything against him, his real nature - the same goes for the others - Sita, Lakshmana, Urmila, Bharata, Mandavi, Shatrughna, Shrutakeerti, Dasharatha, the mothers... All of them will always get their due respect in this book. Secondly, I've followed the Valmiki Ramayana throughout. Some incidents may be revelations, as quite a few things are contrary to popular perception and other versions. Thank you! Fantastic cover designed by @Mochis4lifeq52627 <3

Two elements. Land and water. The sunshine of love binds them together. A prodigious family, love and happiness blooming all times. The five Princes arouse as the greatest power shielded by the care and affection of their wives. However, the recipe of life is never satisfied with one flavor. Thoughts, indifferences and greed under the umbrella of fate play their games, transforming the wonderland into a misery! Presenting to you, a tale of selflessness. "It is often said that life is nothing more than a sacrifice. An offer than a reward. A loss than a gain. A realization than a possession. Following the same ideals, I am prepared for this journey." A tale of true love. "The depth of the sky's blue is as our love, that only over the years to we notice the strength of the hue. Up close it is as clear as pure water, yet when we see the miles it is the blue of fairytale dreams." A tale of trust. "No matter how many days it takes, he would keep up his word. He would definitely come for me if not today then tomorrow. After all, trust is the basis of our relationship." A tale of conspiracies. "Will we not find one idea to shatter the bond? According to her, life is a mirage, filled with illusions and no reality. Will this not make things easy for us?" A tale of betrayals. "What hides behind the lies are truths that failed to get to the light. What lies behind your betrayal may have been honest at first sight. What concealed my pain is what keeps reminding me of you every night. I am confused but I believe everything will come out when the time is right." A tale of a righteous family in the golden pages of the epic of Mahabharata! A tale of the Pandavas and their wives! A fictional perspective of a famous story! Not every story is a fairytale, but every story has it's own tale. || This story was written by an amateur and childish person.
