The 7th Incarnation
Rom, a relationship manager by profession, lives a regular life with his roommate in city of aspirations, Delhi. Known as the philosophical guru among his circles, he maintains a rational outlook towards life searching for answers, of questions those are forbidden to ask or mention.
But his regular life changes one weekend, when a get together is organized by his roommate. There a debate emerges among them over Ram of Ramayan. Did he even exist, whether he deserved to be worshiped or not as some of his acts were put on dock.
Rom decides to clear the air and narrates the saga in order to remove the grudges or delusions one by one with their respective occurrences those are flooded in the minds of rest characters. He also showcases the real picture of Dharm that is apart from religion. The clarifications he made are fairly placed discussions supported by apposite rationales.
Slowly, as the epic unfolds, the rest of characters realize the real story that was lost behind the modern reasoning, one-sided layered with egotism. The true character of Ram and other characters of the epic that was inscribed by the contemporary sage, Valmiki, stand out tall and this time, in actual.

Today the trend in mythology is to fictionalize original stories to make them relevant today but in the process the sanctity of some characters is destroyed.. sometimes even intentionally by authors who want to create a name for themselves by creating controversy. This book takes you through the Ramayan as it was written - The ORIGINAL version of Valmiki told in a modern setting to a modern audience. Wish the author best for the upcoming issues of this Adi Kavya

The 7th incarnation, Book 1 of the Ram Janki series, answers many questions that you may have regarding the legend of Ramayana. The book unfolds a conversational and storytelling approach while revealing the saga—the mythology.
The research is indeed well done, the book is well thought, but it is not executed up to the mark. There are typographical and grammatical errors which may irk a reader like me.
Apart from that,that the book serves great content, is grippy and you won't regret buying it at all. Appreciable efforts by the author!
