Ram's Own Signature
Every dusk, the Ramcharitmanas opens in homes across the subcontinent.
Five Centuries of Grace, The Saint Who Gave India Its Most Beloved Scripture Every morning, ten million voices rise with the Hanuman Chalisa. Every dusk, the Ramcharitmanas opens in homes across the subcontinent. Yet the saint behind these words, Goswami Tulsidas, remains a mystery to most who love him. Ram's Own Signature changes that. This is not a distant scholarly biography.
Read the full description
It is an entry into a living tradition, written from inside the devotion that has kept Tulsidas alive for five hundred years. Part of the BrickHut Sanctuary: Sacred Lives series, this book traces the poet-saint of Varanasi from his earliest sorrow to his final surrender, a life so thoroughly given to Ram that biography and theology became the same thing. If you recite the Hanuman Chalisa daily, if the Ramcharitmanas has ever steadied you in grief or guided you through darkness, you owe yourself the story of the man Ram used to write it.
