GREETINGS

Swamiji:

Q. what is the difference between athmya ramayam and uthara Ramayanam
Ans: the Adyathma Ramayan is basically a dialog between Siva & Parvathi. Capturing the life of Rama as the devine incarnation came down to provide Moksha to all. In this form every character is shown divine and spiritual
The Uthara Ramayana is the story of after Rama pattabhishekam and about Sita getting swallowed by mother earth and Rama ruling the kingdom without Sita for 11000 years and story of Lav and Kush.

Q. should we have to read both on karkiddam why people never reads uthara Ramayanam
Ans: The great aacharyas defines the purpose of our birth or the purushartha (the goal) is to attain Moksha. For this Uthara Ramayana does not contribute anything. Moreover, it is considered auspicious to worship Lord Ram along with Sita as divine concert. The reason being a father along with mother is more benevolent then just Father. So Sita together with Rama is considered to be benevolent than just Ram. Hence people would not try to think of that state.

Q. why it’s telling we should not read yutha kandam I reads all
Ans: the Yudha Kandam has many hidden things that need to be properly understood. We worship Lord. Ram and Lord Lakshmana as divine incarnation. But we see them suffering in the hands of Indrajit etc. And being helped by LordHanuman etc. If that is the case we can get confused Lord Hanuman is better than Lord Ram etc. This entire Yudha kanda is mere a play of the Lord. Hanuman being a devotee of Lord, Lord Ram wanted his devotee’s glory excel himself. Hence he allowed many things to happen and it is not his incapability. We may not understand this and get confused and move away from Lord. That is the reason this needs to be read with Aacharya’s guidance.

HariOm!
