I salute this learned Professor and his wife for taking up this arduous task and successfully completing it. Ramayana is in our blood. I have read short versions in my mother tongue (Tamil), watched it played out in Plays on stage, read the English versions, and consulted (though not fully read) the Sanskrit original text. Each has its own flavor. Then there is the highly popular TV serials that keep propping up and are watched by millions.
not 2500 years old, valmiki ramayana is written more than 9 lac years ago. I appreciate Berkeley professor Robert and Sally goldman's hard work. Jai Shri Ram to both of you and your team🙏🙏🙏
Ramayana is not just a poetry. Its the essence of human greatness and behaviours of ideal society. Who ever reads and understands will automatically fall under gods protection. It will protect you in even in other life as well. Whoever contributed to the work of Ramayana will be blessed till his soul reaches god. Ramayan is the dearest to Lord Shiva himself and he chants name Ram in his meditation. Ram name has great cosmic powers to it. we can see it many other religions names starting with Ram (Ramon, Ramsey, Ramadan.. etc)
Dear Prof Goldman, Though I have not gone thru your work on Ramayana, I wish to submit an essay on Cultural Habits mentioned in Valmiki Ramayan. If you have any project on Ramayan studies or Work shop I would like to submit Thank you for your great effort.
With due respect, I want to inform you that, prof goldman sometimes seems to not have been familiar with the meaning of some basic words like 'kritgya', sometimes he seems to mistranslate. here is a video th-cam.com/video/ZKZvYvFORjQ/w-d-xo.html
@@vinsin328 2500 years back was Maurya Dynasty. Obviously faar faar before that. Valmiki wrote Ramayan before Ram was born. So obviously around 10000 years back.

Listen to rajiv malhotra he will make dharshan of what these people publish is very far reality. These dont have adhikar for any these translations and commentries. Any dharmic will never read these so called translations.
Nonsense. Ramayana has been interpreted and reinterpreted in a number of ways. It is written in different languages. Rajaji wrote a short version in English and Tamil. Much earlier than that Kamban wrote his own version. One guy by name Ashok Banker wrote a 8 volume Ramayana as a "thriller"! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versions_of_Ramayana One more version is welcome. IT seems well researched.

The Ramayana is not a poem . It is history of Indians.
No bro it's actually a poem originally
@@prathameshbhonkhade7801 It's history. Ramayana and Mahabharata are real
It's the History written in Poem Form
@@prathameshbhonkhade7801 As per the ancient times any happening in that time was written in poetic forms i.e in the form of shlokas or poems.
@Darkness Don't accept. No one cares whether you accept it or not.
Yay! Glad to see this video is live!
It's the greatest literary work in the history.

Watch this.

Respect from India. You could also take a look at Mahabharata which is more modern and complex than Ramayana.
@Milin Patel I think the Ramayana was written down first and he meant literature-wise
Dear Prof Goldman,
Though I have not gone thru your work on Ramayana, I wish to submit an essay on Cultural Habits mentioned in Valmiki Ramayan. If you have any project on Ramayan studies or Work shop I would like to submit
Thank you for your great effort.
jai sri ram
Ramayana is the oldest oral Epic as well one of the longest ones on Hindu culture as well as life of Sri Rama.
Thank you,Sir..
That's why we believe in reincarnation. That urge to learn Indian culture didn't come randomly
Go read Vivek Debroy critical edition English translation of the Valmiki Ramayana. One of the most accurate translation.
Thanku sir ❤️
Thank you!
Just amazing ❤
Amazing stuff - great job by these two.
Shocking that you are supporting an ignorant white man whose translation is floored. Have you not heard of the Gita press?
@@2006minesh I heard a little bit. Please tell me more.
"Robert Goldman vs. Gita Press" - Nityanand Misra & Rajiv Malhotra .watch this th-cam.com/video/5c9NiN1i_N8/w-d-xo.html
It is not a story it is a history of india
Looks like poor translation after watching Nityanand Mishra criticism.
Why is thet total set no longer available in hardcover?
VALMIKI HAS WRITTEN 6 KANDAS, BUT GOLDMAN WRITES 7TH KANDA!
Nope. Please provide evidence, file a court case and show the research paper for your claims.
I am sorry but your translation if very very wrong. Each and every verse has mistake. Why don't you read Gita Press edition
They do not publish Ramayana. You can file a case. Also, Gita Press is not a university.
How to buy that Ramayana ?
Great job sir
Thanks sir for your efforts...
Just a constructive criticism
But i dont think its true traslation...
Plz sir can u make it more clear
❤ from India
If translation of Ramayana is over, now try Mahabharat with 1 million shlokas ir verses
Would like to buy but they are so expensive. What gives Berkeley?
Try Bibek debroy's translation
Now the history of ramayna tv serial also available in english.ramanand sagar ramayan in english serial.
That is not based on Valmiki Ramayana. It was for entertainment purposes.
It is not an epic. This is India's history.
Evidence? History is history, nothing is called India's history. India is part of the planet earth.
And also shree krishna serial
Not epic in the ramyana first in a ramyana best ram and sita best in 1 ramyana super
Many many thanks for your effort into this issue
Also refer Hinduism
Not hindu!
Watch this.

Wtf?
Ramayana was not written 2500 years back.
So when was it written?
@@vinsin328
2500 years back was Maurya Dynasty. Obviously faar faar before that.
Valmiki wrote Ramayan before Ram was born. So obviously around 10000 years back.
THE CHARACTERS NAMES OF RAMAYAN ARE STOLEN FROM DASARATH JATAKA.
One can't write on Ramayan unless one does Sadhna!
And what is Sadhna?
What do you think the "work" of translation was ? Can you think of a better sadhna ?
40 years of Purusharth is not sadhna than what is ? If u can’t see good in anything than I m sorry my friend you have no value to add by criticizing.
Best Version of Ramayana Is From Geeta Press
And what is that? They are not writing Ramayana. Translating into English.
First of all its not written 2500 years ago and second it's not poem
So when was it written? If it is not written in the poem then what form is it written in.

You can always provide the evidence if you have it. It is Indians who call Ramayana Mythology, not Westerns. I doubt your schooling.
