CHAKRAVARTI RAJAGOPALACHARI, popularly known as "Rajaji"
or "C.R" was a great patriot, astute politician, incisive thinker, great
visionary and one of the greatest statesmen of all time. He was a close
associate of Mahatma Gandhi, hailed as conscious-keeper of the Mahatma. As
an ardent freedom-fighter, as Chief Minister of Madras, as Governor of
West Bengal, as Home Minister of India and as the first Indian
Governor-General of India, he rendered yeoman service to the nation and
left an indelible impress on our contemporary life.
Rajaji was closely associated with Kulapati Munshiji and he was among the
distinguished founder members of the Bhavan. The Bhavan had the privilege
of publishing 18 books by him so far, the copyright of which he gifted to
the Bhavan.
All of Rajaji's works, especially on MarcusAurelius, the Bhagavad Gita and
Upanishads are popular. In . Mahabharata, he has displayed his inimitable
flair for story-telling and applying the moral of stories to the needs of
modern times. In the present book Ramayana, Rajaji captures for us the
pathos and beauty of Valmiki's magic in an inimitable manner. Written in
homely style, the work is striking in its originality and beauty of
expression. A fitting successor to Mahabharata.
Rajaji passed away in 1972 at the age of 94.
