HAIKU RAMAYANA
 |
|
||||||
Senior haiku writer Radhey Shiam ji has written 'Ramkatha' in the form of 'Haiku'. It is a difficult task to write the entire Ramkatha in 'Haiku'. 'Haiku' is the smallest poem in the world in terms of size, a poem of only seventeen letters and the word 'Ram' is even smaller in term of size, only two letters. (Ra+m), but the scope of Ramkatha is so wide that any one language, any one genre becomes small to describe it. Radhey Shiam ji has done the important work of writing 'Ramkatha' in Haiku by considering it as 'verse'. From this point of view his work is a little different. -Dr. Jagdish Vyom- https://youtu.be/Mtwrgrdqeik https://www.dainiktribuneonline.com/news/sahitya/the-fragrance-of-a-big-mind-in-a-small-haiku/ Some independent haikus of Radhey Shiam ji were also included in the first representative haiku collection in Hindi, 'Haiku-1989'. It is obvious that when such an accomplished haiku writer would have been overwhelmed by Tulsi's 'mind', he would not have been able to stop himself from writing 'Haiku Ramayana'. The story of Ram is such that it drives anyone crazy. But it might not have been that easy. Because Radhey Shiam ji has written these haikus in the Awadhi language in which Tulsi had written Ramcharit manas. –Kamlesh Bhatt Kamal- Radhey Shiam ji has made an innovative experiment not only in Hindi but in the entire Indian literature by writing the entire Ramkatha in Haiku verses in two parts. From the point of view of imagination, style, craft and nobility, it contains all the characteristics of an extended treatise. The language of the work is Sanskrit and Awadhi. In the beginning, Ram, Ganesha, Shiva, Saraswati, Guru, Ganga, etc. were worshiped under Mangalacharan. In re-singing the Ramkatha written by the great poet Tulsidas, the poet has displayed humility by accepting it as 'leavings'.
