Today I was walking alone through the Campus and was thinking about the Storry of Ramayana... I will explain the meaning later. Why Ramayana? I had to study this and watched on Youtube a kids movie about it. Than I checked the symbolic meaning from Art of living. And yes, again I think it makes so much sense for me. We need to control our mind to find happiness within and salvation of sorrow. It seems difficult for me arround all the people here to get this kind of feeling. Too many thoughts about other things and other people come into my mind. I can not become quite. Maybe that is why I should not have so many people around me here... I am totaly sure, really every little thing what happens in our life makes sense and I am learning to understand more and more about it. Nature seems to be so perfect. ...What is it, what makes it so perfect? How is every plant, every organism so perfect constructed? And why do we not pay more attention to it in our invironment? I became so happy, just observing the different Flowers and Trees and the little Animals at our Campus. :o) ... When I don`t give attention to all my differnent thoughts in my mind, and I look just at the Nature as it is, I see only God. This thoughts made me today very calm and happy. All worries become so small... Let`s go on and and work on the combining of our Mind and sould with the help of our Breath. My practise: Asanas, Pranayama and Meditation in combination. (Ramayana symbolic below) What is Ramayana?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: http://www.artofliving.org/worshiping-gods It is said that the Ramayana is happening in your own body. Your soul is Rama, your mind is Sita, your breath or life-force is Hanuman, your awareness is Laxmana and your ego is Ravana. When the mind was stolen by Ravana (the ego) then the soul got restless. Now the soul cannot reach the mind on its own, it has to take the help of the breath - the prana. With the help of the prana, the mind got reunited with the soul, and the ego vanished. This is the spiritual significance of the story. Otherwise Hanuman was a monkey, and in those days the monkeys were also very intelligent and very devoted. Devotees are much more powerful than the master himself. This is a fact. Real devotees are much more powerful than God. For the term being used to be well understood, the meaning of Ramayana is that a soul (Ram) enters (Ayana) into play the activities of human form. It is Uttarayana when the Sun enters the zodiac/rasi of Capricorn/ Makara called as Makar sankranti. Thus there is philosophical and astrological significance attached to the characters of Ramayana: Dashratha as Purusha is the vehicle of human body consisting of ten senses of perception and action. His three wives Kaushalaya, Sumitra and Kakayee denotes Nature (Prakriti) consisting of three qualities of Sattvic (Harmony), Rajastic (Movement) and Tamsic (Inertia).

There are two preceptors (Gurus) namely Vasishta and Vishwamitra which represents two kinds of knowledge. Vashishta is deductive method of knowledge from general instance to particular instance.
