The Yoga Vasistha Ramayana- Translated into English From The Original Sanskrit Text (An Old and Rare Book) By D. N. Bose

The Yoga Vasishtha Ramayana is one of the most outstanding works in Sanskrit on the Adwaita philosophy, which has since taken deep root in India. The volume is much valued on account of the thorough and systematic treatment of the subject matter, specially for citation of numerous illustrations from lives of high- souled persons to elucidate the issues under discussion.

The book was composed to illumine Sree Ramachandra of venerable memory when in the prime of youth he experienced a strong sense of detachment towards worldly affairs in view of the chain of thoughts running through his mind relating to the transitoriness of the worldly things and the hollowness of desires and attachment. The instructions imparted to him on that occasion by the great sage Vasishtha, that ultimately dispelled the doubts that lurked in his mind, are chronicled in the volume.
