Lord Rama being the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is fully replete with six opulences and the reservoir of all auspiciousness and thus reading, speaking about or hearing about Lord Rama elevates ones consciousness and cause one to return back home, back to Godhead. We find that throughout the history of Bharat varsha (India), people would gather to discuss and hear about Ramayana and derive great knowledge on dharma, culture and spiritual bliss from its narrations. Indeed the impact of the teachings and pastimes of Lord Rama were felt as far as Southeast Asia where countries such as Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Malaysia have local editions of Ramayana that narrate the epic in traditional dramas, songs and stories in their own language.
