Ramcharitmanas Ramayana Bala Kanda: Many mythological stories related to Sanatan culture. The scriptures are Vedas and Puranas. One of these is ‘Shri Ramcharitmanas’ which is the holy book of Hindu religion. This is called Adikavya. It serves as the foundation for the interesting journey of the epic Ramayana. The first canto in Balakanda of Valmiki Ramayana is known as ‘Mularamayana’. 77 cantos and 2280 verses are found in Balkand.
In the first canto of Balkand, the description of Ramayana, the composition of Ramayana and the Luv Kush incident is found. Along with this, Dasharatha’s yagya, birth of sons (Ram, Lakshman, Bharat and Shatrughan), education of Ram-Lakshman, killing of demons, marriage of Ram-Sita have been described in detail.
What are the benefits of reading Balkand?
Balkande tu sarganam sahya saptasaptatih.
Slokaanaan Dve Sahastre Cha Saashiti Shatakdvayam.
The outline of the entire story of Ramayana begins from here. From the religious point of view, the childhood incident of Ramayana is very important. According to Brihaddharma Purana, reciting Balkand provides relief from drought, great pain and planetary pain. That means all sorrows, faults and pains become free. That is why the tradition of Balkand is popular.
Balkand contains details of the entire events from the birth of Lord Shri Ram to his marriage. But couplets 203-205 of Balkand especially depict the childhood exploits of Lord Shri Ram. Here we will know which incidents have been described about Lord Shri Ram in Balkand 203 to 205 of Ramcharitmanas.
