A historic statue from the Ramakien (Ramayana) epic
A historic statue from the Ramakien epic in Thailands National museum in Bangkok. The Ramakien is the Thai version of the Ramayana. The Ramayana is not just an ordinary story. It contains the teachings of the very ancient Hindu sages and presents them through allegory in narrative and the interspersion of the philosophical and the devotional. The characters of Rama Sita Lakshmana Bharata Hanuman and Ravana the villain of the piece are all fundamental to the cultural consciousness of India.
