In our previous episode, we witnessed Hanuman’s triumphant return from Lanka with news of Sita’s steadfast virtue, and how that news galvanized Ram’s army of Vanars, bears, and sages. Hanuman had returned to Mount Mahendra after his extraordinary journey to Lanka. He had seen Sita with his own eyes. He had spoken to her. He had reassured her that Ram would come. And now, he had returned with that sacred message of hope.
Today, we turn the page to Yuddha Kanda, the climactic sixth book of the Ramayan—The Book of War. Yuddha Kanda is a profound meditation on duty, courage, and the moral stakes of righteous conflict. Here, the serene devotion of Sundara Kanda gives way to the drumbeat of battle: alliances are forged, strategies are laid, and every hero prepares to stand firm in defense of truth and justice. As Yuddha Kanda unfolds, we will see the Vanars host led by Sugreev marshal its might; the divine architect Nal commence construction of the glorious Ram Setu bridge; and Ram himself seek counsel from venerated elders like Vibhishan and the celestial sages. Together, they prepare not only for the clash of arms but for the triumph of dharmic order over adharm’s shadow.
In this episode, we will explore how devotion transforms into determination, how faith galvanizes strategy, and how every act of planning becomes a prayer. From the sacred rituals purifying the war council to the thunderous chants that echo across the ocean, witness how a righteous cause marshals divine forces for the battle that will decide the fate of worlds. Let us now step onto the shores of purpose and preparation, where gods and mortals unite under the banner of Dharm.
