Reading Diary A Week 5

I found the character Agastya to be very interested in Buck's version of Ramayana. 

  • He is a small man
  • Rama, Lakshmana and Sita come to Agata'shermitage
  • He is famous for lowering the heights of Vindhya hills
  • He is also the sage who put a stop to the two demon brothers Vatapi and Ilwala. 
  • He warned Rama about the Dandaka forest dangers
  • He knows so much about the forest and is extremely knowledgeable 
  • He tries to prepare Rama for his travels
  • He gave Rama a better bow
  •  There is no one else like Agastya
