Synopsis

The Rama-Yama is I believe widely regarded as part of the pantheon of ancient Vedic Holy writing, like the Mahabartha with which you classify it and which includes the most well-known Indian scripture, the Bhagavad Gita, the book of Krsna. It it is a narrative perhaps in the same category as the story of Abraham and Sarah and their family in the book of Genesis and should perhaps be regarded as having similar levels of allegorical and metaphysical significance
