"Rammay - An emotional poetic journey steeped in Ramatva"

Rammay, a collection of poems written by Mumbai's sensitive and talented poet Poojashree, is a very beautiful effort to connect Indian spirituality and devotional poetry tradition with modern sensibility. This book is not only dedicated to Ram, but is dedicated to the broad shadow of Ramatva which is the foundation of love, sacrifice, dignity and compassion.

This book has been published by the country's prestigious literary institution Syahi Prakashan, which is known for providing a strong platform to Hindi literature in the present times. The quality and selection vision of Syahi Prakashan can be experienced in every page of this book.

Language and craft
Poojashree's language is simple, impressive and emotional. She has avoided complexity in her poems and adopted such a style that easily touches the heart of the common reader. In her verses, a beautiful balance of the sweetness of the folk language and the depth of Sanskrit words can be seen. Each poem creates a different scene—sometimes it is the innocence of Bal Ram, sometimes the pain of going to the forest; sometimes it is the Ram-bhaavna of the friends of Janakpuri, sometimes the silent sad melody of Bharat's penance.

Main theme
The main element of Rammay is that "Ram" is not a personality, but an element—this feeling has been continuously expressed in the entire collection. The author has portrayed Ram as an ideal human consciousness, not just a king or an incarnation. The poems of this book seem like a new link in the tradition of Tulsidas, Kabir and modern devotional poetry.

In many poems, various dimensions of the Ram-Katha have been highlighted through the characters of Sita, Hanuman, Shabari, Laxman, Urmila etc. Especially the poems written on Urmila, who is generally considered a neglected character, shake the reader to the core.

What is special

Emotional depth: There is a soulful dialogue in every poem, which inspires the reader to introspect.

Female perspective: Poojashree has seen the Ramkatha from the point of view of a woman, which gives it a new dimension.

Contemporary context: By not limiting Ramtva to a mythical story, the author has linked it to today's society and the life of an individual - which makes this work relevant for today's era.

Conclusion
Ramamay is such a poetry collection that gives the experience of bathing in the confluence of religious faith, poetic essence and philosophy. Published by Syahi Prakashan, this book is an invaluable gift for all those readers who are interested in Indian culture, devotion and literature.
