TULSIDAS' RAMAYANA
RAM CHARIT MANAS
Tulsidas (1574) tells the story of Ram, the prince of Ayodhya, in Awadhi, a dialect of Hindi spoken in Awadh in Uttar Pradesh. The work consists of about a thousand stanzas, each about 12 to 18 lines, set in elegant rhyme. Every village and town in the Hindi heartland has a troupe that gives a theatrical performance, called Ramlila, based on Tulsidas' work. Ramlila is enacted as part of the Vijaya Dashami celebrations.
Ram Charit Manas or Ram Charit Manas Ramayana, Tulsidas’ Ramayana was written by the great Awadhi poet Goswami Tulsidas in Kaliyuga. This version was written in Awadhi, a dialect of Hindi spoken in Uttar Pradesh. Composed in the 15th century. Ram Charit Manas comprises of 3 words – Ram, Charit which means good deeds, and Manas which means lake. Thus, it translates to ‘the lake of Ram’s good deeds’.

Having acknowledged the Valmiki Ramayana, Ram Charit Manas Ramayana is a retelling of the Ramayana. There are very subtle differences between Valmiki Ramayana and Ram Charit Manas such as Lord Hanuman is depicted as a human in the former and as a monkey in the latter. In this version, Ram is depicted as a supreme being, the incarnation of God. He is shown to have a divine touch to his deeds. His actions are described as God’s righteous ways to remove evils and establish Dharma. Tulsidas’ Ramayana also ends with the birth of Ram and Sita’s twin sons – Kusha and Lava.
