Reading Notes: Ramayana Part A


PDE Ramayana: Rama: Avatar of Vishnu. Source. Indian Myth and Legend by Donald A. Mackenzie (1913).

Lord Vishnu, was very determined and helpful to anyone who came to ask for help. When Indra and other gods went to heaven to talk about how the Rakshasas were in Lanka and were making trouble,
he was ready to help. Vishnu right away said ‘don’t worry, I will take care of Rakshasas that are causing trouble'. He choose to go as four parts, so he divided himself which I believe was a really good idea because he could be in 4 different places at the same time. Out of the four avatars of Vishnu, Rama was considered the most beautiful for everyone. He was pretty much the main one and one that his father was attached to the most because brahmin said that Rama had the traits of Lord Vishnu.

There are many ways I could retell the story but one way I think would be really nice is if I kept the Brave Rama the same, with the same characteristics and show him in the modern life. Putting him in the current life situations and seeing how he would help others, I think that would be really interesting and fun. The way Lord Vishnu has avatars such as Rama, Vishnu is the main person while Rama is the ‘undercover’. I would create a story like that where Rama would be working undercover and when someone needs help he would be there to help. I would make him similar to Spiderman where his talent and helpful powers, such as killing demons would be hidden. I would also make Rama the most loved in the community because he was always so kind and caring, no one knows who he really is because he will always have his face hidden in order for him to live a normal, average person life.

                                    Rama will have the ability to help like Spiderman. Source.

Introduction: A little about me

Hello everyone, my major is Psychology. I want to do my masters in Speech-Language Pathology. After I finish with college, I want to be a Speech Therapist. I also want to move to Texas in the future, I know what you are thinking, boo Texas, but I will still always be a Sooner. I am currently a senior, this will be my 4th year in the University of Oklahoma. My biggest accomplishment last year was figuring out what exactly I wanted to do after I graduate and what I am passionate about which had been a constant struggle for me. This summer I took a trip to Chicago with my sister, it was great exploring a new city. I really enjoy traveling and going to different places. My goal is to visit all 50 states one day, I am almost half way there which is exciting. My favorite  T.V.  show is Friends, just like every other person out there. I enjoy all types of movies but comedy would probably be my favorite. Bollywood movies are also my favorite, they are very different from American movi...

Week 9, Kunti's wishes

Image
There once was a little girl, Kunti, who was extremely sad. She was sad because she never got anything she wanted even after working so hard for it. She prayed and prayed each night hoping to get her wishes fulfilled but not with an honest heart. She was asking out of greed.  One night she is laying in bed next to her sister and just thinking about why she can’t get a job even after she had applied to so many places.  Kunti closes her eyes and prays “ God, why do you put me through so much even after I do good deeds?”  God replies, “ I am only teaching you things that will help you in your future. I am not punishing you my child. Just wait a little more time and your wishes will come true”  Kunti thought to herself “this gives me hope. I have been waiting so long for a job so I can life properly with my sister”  Kunti and her sister have been on there own for the past five years due to the loss of their parents in a car accident. At th...
