Ram Durbar

 
     Hindu Mythology has hundreds of Gods and similar number of tales around them. The Ramayana is one of the major epics about Lord Rama. He was considered the ideal ruler. Rama's rule or 'Ram Rajya' is considered a synonym for good governance. This is a picture of 'Ram Durbar' or 'Rama's Court' depicting Ram, his wife Sita, his three younger brothers and the Monkey God Hanuman. This epic is very long and interesting and those of you interested in knowing more can click on this link.

    Such paintings are always very very difficult. Even attempting it is a great job in itself. Recently I read a book called 'Book of Ram' by Devdutt Pattnaik. It was really a great book presented with a superb perspective on the epic.
