"Sundarakanda - Talk 01 / 09" - Talk in English by Swami Aparajitananda, Chinmaya Mission Mangaluru.

Hari Om!
For nine days starting today, Swami Aparajitanandaji takes us through the most beautiful canto of Tulasi Ramayana, Sundara Kanda. The sweetness of Avadhi language, the devotional beauty of Tulasidasji's composition and the divine melody in Swamiji's voice blend together to melt our hearts in devotion for the Lord.
As the talks proceed, the deeper Vedantic meaning behind each incident is unfolded and every thought, word and action analysed to unveil the intricacies of the mind and intellect and to guide us on how to live spirituality in our day to day life.
Today's talk also addresses:
• How to handle obstacles on the spiritual path?
• Three beautiful invocation verses prostrating to Shri Rama, Tulasidas ji and Hanuman ji.
• Why is Ramayana so unique and ageless?
• Which is the best text to develop devotion for the Lord and sharanāgati?
• How does Tulasi Ramayana differ from Valmiki Ramayana?
• What is Sundara Kanda all about?
• What is Sundara about this canto?
• Why is Hanuman called the ruler of all vānaras?
• What would be a true devotee's prayer?
• Why did Hanuman accept a limited task even though he was capable of much more?
• What is Hanuman's attitude towards Shri Rama and His work?
• Qualities of Hanuman
• Why is Hanuman compared to Shri Rama's arrow?
• What are the three obstacles Hanuman meets on the way to Lanka?
• Which qualities of Hanuman become visible as he meets those obstacles?
Let us revel in the glory of Bhagavan, His Bhaktas and Bhakti Mata (Sita)!
