Journal of Global Economy, 2025, vol. 21, issue 1, 3-9
Abstract:
Both the grand form of Itihasa and a unique prosody pattern for the epic literary genre of the Ramayana were first crafted by Rishi Valmiki. Presently, days go ahead, people are living under frustration, tension, different diseases, mentally and physically, a lack of brotherhood, a lack of practising religious culture, a lack of love for nature and creatures, lack of ethical and moral values. Objectives: The study aims to seek the relevance of Ramayana in our daily life in the regard of the present Situation. Methods: This study is descriptive by nature based on secondary data in its design and has utilized a qualitative approach. Results and Discussion: Some important lessons of Ramayana are discussed and shown the consequences of Dharma in our life. How to live as a true person, how to fulfill the right duty and accountability in a society, etc. are learned. Findings: In modern times, the old epics like The Mahabharata and The Ramayana have the unflinching relevance to transform the computerized life of the modern people. Conclusion: The Ramayana does, in fact, offer deep lessons that we can apply to our daily lives without any kind of cooperation. These answers are applicable to all circumstances, including those involving the individual, the family, and more extensive aspects of social and professional ambiguities.
