'' Since its inception in 1923, Gita Press has published more than 45.45 crore copies of various books, including 8.10 crore copies of the Bhagwad Gita and 7.5 crore copies of Ram Charit Manas - the rendition of the Ramayan by 16th century poet Tulsidas. However, Ram Charita Manas has become the best-selling title of the Press with a surge in demand, especially from Non-Resident Indians. It accounts for 35 per cent of total sales, while the Bhagwad Gita 20-25 per cent.
Every year, Ram Charit Manas copies worth Rs 3-4 lakh are sent to the US as there is strong demand for them from NRIs, Agarwal(OWNER OF GITA PRESS GORAKHPUR ) said. -[news by PTI}
** but we Indian do not read RAM CHARIT MANAS and look after America .
'' Dharamu na doosar satya samaana | Aagam nigam puraan bakhaana ||
Param dharm shruti bidit ahinsa | Par ninda sama agha na gareesa ||''
There is no virtue equal to truthfulness |
so declare the Agamas, Vedas and Purans ||
A vow of non-violence is the highest religious merit known to the vedas |
and there is no sin as heinous (horrible, evil, hateful) as speaking ill of others||
The Priciples written in RAM CHARIT MANAS were followed by Mahatma Gandhi throughout in his life and action . we respect and revere Gandhi but do not read RAM CHARIT MANAS .
