Ramayana teaches to the discerning and the not so discerning the path of virtue
Ramayana is the Hindu epic wherein the incarnation of Lord Vishnu as a normal human being is portrayed.
Even to the not so very discerning the sage Valmiki whose text is read with reverence all over India it is apparent that this epic deals with a human being endowed with the following qualities: A person full of virtues, possessed of prowess, knows what is right, conscious of services done, truthful of speech, firm of resolve, possessed of right conduct, friendly to all living beings, man of knowledge, lovable appearance, powerful, conquered anger, possessed of splendor, and is above fault finding.
Therefore reading such an epic confers on the reader clarity of thought leading to attainment of eminence in eloquence.
The story of Lord Rama is a story in which compounds, the conjunction of letters and the combination of root words with their suffixes figure in their proper places and which is made up of expressions of uniform beauty, sweet to hear and marked with perspicuity.
