Life and Teachings of Maharishi Valmiki

Born as Ratnakara, Maharishi Valmiki’s journey from a notorious highway robber to a revered sage is nothing short of extraordinary. Legend has it that one day, while attempting to rob the great sage Narada, Ratnakara was confronted with a profound question: “Who will bear the burden of your sins?” This question struck a chord within him, leading Ratnakara to renounce his life of crime and seek redemption.

Under the guidance of Sage Narada, Ratnakara immersed himself in deep meditation and underwent a transformative spiritual journey. Renamed as Valmiki, meaning “one who was born out of an anthill,” he dedicated his life to penance and self-realization. It was during this period that Valmiki composed the epic Ramayana, which narrates the life and adventures of Lord Rama, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
