@Spectatorkhan A: How many versions of the Ramayana exist?
A: Countless, and there are more all the time. It is a story always being retold. Even what we call Valmiki's Ramayana was a fluid text that existed in multiple versions.
AK Ramanujan began a famous essay on the Ramayana thus: "How many Ramayanas? Three hundred? Three thousand? At the end of some Ramayanas, a question is sometimes asked: How many Ramayans have there been? And there are stories that answer the question. Here is one."
It's a horrible travesty of justice that the courts are discussing a land dispute case instead of trying to ensure that the terrorists are punished. The successful deviation from the real majoritarian violence to the imaginary communal conflict is the biggest fiasco in all of this, and it's not just the right wing that's to be blamed.
I know it's late, but it's Friday and with the #Ayodhyaverdict coming down tomorrow, let's do a quick round of questions.
