Shri Nama Ramayanam
Introduction
Shri Nama Ramayanam (literally meaning "The Ramayana of Holy Names") is a sublime 108-name devotional hymn composed by Sage Lakshmanacharya.
What makes the Nama Ramayanam unique and revered across India is that its 108 names summarize the entire 24,000 verses of Valmiki Ramayana in strict chronological order across the 6 Kandas (Bala Kanda, Ayodhya Kanda, Aranya Kanda, Kishkindha Kanda, Sundara Kanda, Yuddha Kanda).
Reciting Nama Ramayanam gives the full spiritual merit of reading the entire Valmiki Ramayana. Each name ends with the ecstatic refrain "Rāma" or "Śrī Rāma", creating a sweet, rhythmic flow ideal for daily chanting and singing.
