"Ramayana": The Ramayana is an ancient Indian epic attributed to the sage Valmiki. It narrates the story of Prince Rama and his quest to rescue his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana. The epic explores themes of dharma (righteousness), devotion, loyalty, and the battle between good and evil. Romesh Chunder Dutt's translation of the Ramayana aimed to convey the essence of this epic to English-speaking readers, allowing them to appreciate its cultural and spiritual significance."Mahabharata": The Mahabharata is another ancient Indian epic, traditionally attributed to the sage Vyasa. It is much larger than the Ramayana and covers a wide range of themes, including the Kurukshetra War, family relationships, dharma, philosophy, and moral dilemmas. Within the Mahabharata is the Bhagavad Gita, a revered spiritual text that is often studied independently. Romesh Chunder Dutt's translation of the Mahabharata sought to make this extensive epic accessible to English readers, capturing the grand narrative and its philosophical depth.
