SRIMADVALMIKI RAMAYANAM-BALAKANDAM (Sanskrit)

The author of this book, Mr T N Ramakrishnan, an undergraduate in Mathematics from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, served for forty years in various important positions in Neyveli Lignite Corporation, Neyveli, Tamil Nadu and retired as Financial Controller in 2001. Due to pressure of work in important assignments during his service, he could not pay much attention to reading Valmiki Ramayanam in his daily morning prayers. On retirement, he tried to make good the lost spiritual pursuit during his service.by reading Valmiki Ramayanam during his prayers. But the eight volumes of Ramayanam books that were being used by his father and mother from god old days became unusable. The aim now is to digitize the series of all the six kandams of Valmiki Ramayanam so that it may be useful to all interested readers. The original was edited by Late P S Krishnaswamy Iyar from old manuscripts. The same has been recompiled by the author with some corrections wherever necessary.
