- In an enlightening interview with Devdutt Pattanaik, the author, and mythologist offered his insights on the revered Hindu epic, the Ramayana. Patnaik discussed the central theme of Dharma that the Ramayana successfully disseminates across India, and made poignant remarks about the values symbolized by Lord Ram. On being asked about the reinterpretations of the epic in the 20th century, he expressed his dismay at these being largely driven by politics.
Devdutt also dispelled the common misconception about Sita being seen as a tragic victim and underlined the wisdom she inherited from her father, Raja Janak. His gripping remark, 'Justice is not a fact, It's a belief', added a telling perspective about the relevance of the Ramayana, even for skeptics and atheists. #DevduttPatnaik #Ramayana #Sita #Ayodhya #rammandirayodhya #ayodhya #rammandirnews #rammandirinauguration #pmmodi #yogiadityanath #ayodhyanews #modi #narendramodi #pmmodinews #pranpratishtha #indiatoday #indiatodaylive #indiatodaylivestream #yogiadityanath #rammandirlive #rajdeepsardesai #seshadarichari

devdutt.. as brilliant as always.!!
It is nice to see Rajdeep helpless.😄
it is no enough, he should cry in front of Ram temple.
Simply superb!!
Ignoring, Devdutt calling himself a mythologist - it is still nice to see Devdutt has matured over the years. I used to find his earlier interpretations problematic. But now he speaks with real nuanced insights and clarity. Time for a real nuanced Ramayana movie to replace Adipurush from someone like GV Iyer.
Devdutt is a snake, never trust him.
Absolutely fabulous!
Devdutt is "Sweet Poison" in this entire interview
what an appropriate description, sweet poison, i cannot stop smiliing, brilliant brilliant Mr. Deep !
Beautiful
How lovely was this. Could listen to Devdutt forever ❤
Finally if this may change Rajdeep's thoughts a bit.
2 foreigners talking about India 😂😂
Brilliant 💯⭕
Thank you so much for this wonderful conversation. Really appreciate
Mesmerising!!
Awesome Dev
It seems Devdutt Patnaik has disheartened the anchor who was trying to mislead Devdutt in the pretext of Gandhi's Ramrajya which is misinterpreted to defend the pseudo-secularism advocated by the anchor and his friends who see no value in ideas being spoken by Devdutt.
Great..
So deep analysis
Nice explanation..
DEV DUTT DID A GOOD JOB HERE
I would like to know from Mr patnaiķ about the historicity of the Ramayan and the mahabharata
Both communists marxists trying to teach hinduism lol . Ramayana is a story lol...
How would you convince that Ramayana is not a story/myth but a historical fact?
Then what it is ??
The poetry written by Valmiki conveys a story though, right?
I mean we all know its not all 'imaginary' but based on King Dasharatha, Prince Rama of Ikshvaku dynasty., but its a poetry at the end of the day.
@@ViswaMitrann The stories of other kings/rulers of Ikshvaku dynasty weren't really penned or probably lost. In fact there is a fair consensus that Uttarkand (the 7th chapter) which talks about Luv/Kush was not part of original Ramayan and just squeezed in. You can find lot of interesting topics on why so?
Master class in creative writing and ways to inculcate cognitive biases.
Imagine Ravan ruling his Kingdom in the name of Ram
Cools
Great interpretation. Devdutt Pattnaik is the best mythologist in India.
no. he is a hidden commie. These people dont know sanskrit or sangam tamil. and yet write on hinduism. He sees it as Myth, and we see it as ancient history. There lies the difference.
Its not mythology.. Its history.. So we should say he is the best Historian! Myth is something thats not true. But I understand your feelings. Namaskar!!
🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️@@maheshkandhadai75
Devdutt is a Anti-Hindu hater, he openly spits on Lord Ram and Worships Ravana.
@@maheshkandhadai75sir how it is history did Hanuman really ate the sun ?
Yes the context of action is very important. Savarkar 's mafi namas needs to be interpreted by Congress..
Have you visited the prison in Andamans. Please visit once to understand the tyranny of white sahebs. A cell is 4 ft by 4 ft by 4 ft .. one cannot lie down, stand fully.. humans had to extract oil from oilseeds..
Devdatta is anti Hindu by his training in USA. He is simply talking superficial and settled things to malign the Dhatma. Condemn him.
Ramayana is a story ??? What garbage. How can you concoct the celestial formations in that epic? The geography etc
There are puranas and there are itihaasas there is significant difference.
The poetry written by Valmiki conveys a story though, right?
I mean we all know its not all 'imaginary' but based on King Dasharatha, Prince Rama etc.., but its a poetry at the end of the day.
huh? lol wut?
Spiderman swings around New York.
Newy york is real hence Spiderman is real
🐕🐕🐕 Dog Dutt , what about the historic places in India from Ayodhya to srilanka. Are these places also imaginary
Rajdeep bad summary. Please, you don't have to have the last word - it's beyond your ability when it come to these kind of things.
Story?????
It's itihaasa.
Parigter has shown that the ikshavukus of ayodha were a dravidian kingdom
Frog Rajdeep😮😮
People with anti everthing- disucssing topics which majority of the single community in the country agree. Give us a break
It's funny to hear rajdeep trying to make it simplistic and somehow condemn BJP, buts a gets a comment for being pedestrian. He is good journalist but bias sometimes makes him look low
If possible Rajdip wants to interogate RAM again and again, however his behaviour is contrasting at times when he blames gov of changing Aurangazeb road he doesnt dare asking Islamic scholars about how good son Aurangazeb was or good brother he was.
You have problem with different interpretations, actually there may be many many interpretations but core is same.
Rajdip is always going for trees instead of forest.
Rajidp is blind about fallacies of other relgions or other icons.
Rajip Cong should award you Rajasabha, its high time now
Did they really happen and if so when
I don't believe that ravan ẁas a Brahman as caste was not established yet
Brahman is not a caste (jati) it's a Varn which is work centric
ye jugad MDC jinada hai? har din subhe subhe khaarahe ho kya aap ka foster maa baapPollok aur doniger ka seecihttoooo...jee bhar khaalo babaaaaaaaaaa
windie maa wind jab pass karega toh lungs bhar ke lelo...wah hi yoga hai
commies acting hindu. lol
Shameless journalism
Mr Patnaik: Ramayana is not a story, it is Itihas. Do not spread the falsehood. The stories are attached to the historical truth to make it relevant to various times.
it is a story - katha. It is Itihaasa. It is not a Myth.
Do u really believe Hanuman ate Sun or he lifted Mountain comeon use your mind
One should read a bit more about Ikshvaku dynasty to get the historical perspective.
@@MJ-fh4mf What are you using ? 😂😂 Super human beings behaved in a way that defied all logic.
@@MJ-fh4mfif Mohammed can fly on donkey then why not can lord Hanuman eat sun?
ramayana is mythology, what about the one who shouldn't be named?
Empty vessels.
Are bhai tujko samajme nahi ayega. Parvatiji, Garudji ko bhi samanya manav lagte the.
Both are woke ….. This anchor again did something which you should not have done …… calling a woke
What a shame on Hindus. Rajdeep has found this Shit to speak on Bhagwan Ram !!!
😂
To make you understand of all people wickedness like what you did to pm modi in godhra riots was wrong and come to to terms with this cleanse your soul remove your ego maya philosophical but ego the worst rajdeep and guide sagarose that as well no matter what beauty we are experiencing you and this station push hate with so much
गोदी मीडिया
Sorry - but Devsutt Patnaik is a light weight on this subject and his highly Westernized thought process is problematic.
