A long teaching from sage Vasistha to Rama on mind, illusion and liberation.

Each link leaves this site for a public edition. Translations and recensions vary. Nothing here replaces a teacher in your tradition.
Educational orientation only — not a canonical edition, a priest’s ruling, or medical or legal advice.
A philosophical companion to the Rama story rather than a war narrative. Editions are abridged in different ways; this public English reader is one doorway.
