Adhyatma Ramayana is an ancient
Sanskrit work extolling the spiritual virtues of the story of Ramayana. It comprises around 4200 verses, is embedded in
Brahmānda Purana and is considered to be authored by Ved
Vyasa. Literally meaning Spiritual Ramayana, Adhyatma Ramayana is considered a treatise of Vedantic philosophy and study of Advait (non-dualistic) philosophy. It is supposed to have provided
Tulsidas (1511-1637 AD), the inspiration to write his seminal work
Ramcharitmanas. It also inspired several later versions of the story of
Rama like in Oriya, Bengali and Malayalam.
