Ramcharitmanas

Rāmcharitmānas is an epic poem in Awadhi language, composed by the 16th-century Indian bhakti poet Tulsidas (c. 1497–1623). The word Ramcharitmanas literally means "Lake of the deeds of Rama". It is considered one of the greatest works of Hindu literature. Quotes It is sinful to even see the face of a man who does not feel his friend's pain. Treat your own mountain-like pain as though it were a speck. Treat your friend's speck-like pain as though it were a mountain. "जे न मित्र दुख होहिं दुखारी। तिन्हहि बिलोकत पातक भारी॥ निज दुख गिरि सम रज करि जाना। मित्रक दुख रज मेरु समाना॥" Je na mitra dukh hohi dukhari, Tinhi bilokat patak bhari ॥ Nij dukh giri sam raj kari jana, Mitrak dukh raj meru samana ॥ Ramcharitmanas:Kishkindhakand (रामचरितमानस:किष्किन्धाकाण्ड) in Wikisource External links Category:Hindu texts Category:Epic poetry
