Reading Notes: Ramayana Part C



My hero Hanuman 

Hanuman is the man per usual and is saving Sita. At first, she thinks it might be one of Ravana's tricks but it is indeed Hanuman. The piece turns into a beautiful poem. Hanuman declaring he's come to rescue her on Rama's behalf. Then Sita goes into a flurry of powerful statements of Rama her love. I'm a sucker for a good poem and this was so beautiful. Hanuman may be Sita's hero but he's also mine.

Hanuman Captured
Hanuman finds Sita and rescues her but is still furious that someone dares touch his mistress. He goes about destroying the dwelling when Ravana finds out. Ravana sends Jambumali to kill Hanuman but is not successful, he merely wounds Hanuman who then crushes him. Prince Aksha and his rakshasas also attempted to stop Hanuman and met their deaths swiftly. Next up in the ring was the deadly Indrajit. Indrajit tried and tried but missed every shot, knowing he couldn't kill the monkey he decided to ensnare him, he shot a  Brahma shaft at Hanuman who fell captured. The silly rakshasas grabbed him and bound him a second time not knowing that the Brahma would be broken if bounded over by another. This story illustrates Hanuman's strength and cunning

Introduction to 24

Well, my name is David Czovek and I am 24. You're probably thinking "that's a tad old for an undergrad" and you'd be right but that's what makes this all the more fun. I am from a city in Connecticut called Bristol and graduated in the spring of 2014 from Bristol Central high school. On a normal track, I should've finished my undergrad in the spring of 2018. While in high school, I applied to 8 schools and got into all of them. I decided upon Baylor University. I had never been to Texas and was excited to get away from home and go somewhere warmer. I enrolled as a General Engineering major and by the end of my freshman year, I realized it was not for me. Typical freshman who didn't know and was trying different things. I did a business internship which I loved so I thought maybe become a business student. One semester later and... yep, you guessed it business was also not for me. I went to my counselor and she had me take tests to figure out what caree

Week 9 Story: Diary: River flows in Me

Diary: River flows in Me March 3rd, 5565BC Dear Diary,  Today another group of pilgrims came. They were dispersing the ashes of their loved ones in my river. My heart is heavy and full all at the same time for those who lose loved ones before the proper time. I blessed them for paying their respects to their loved ones so that they may reach moksha. - Ganga ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 12th, 5565BC Dear Diary,  Today I was blessing travelers and animals as they came to my river to rest and drink when up in the sky I saw eight vasus' crying and flailing about. They came to me and said, "We have been cursed oh goddess, one year from today when the sun rises we will be born one by one as humans to live out humans' lives with no recollection of our divinity." Their story shocked me so I agreed to help. I told them that I would have them and upon their birth, I shall destro
