Coup On Indian Epics – 06 [To Degrade Harischandra]

That’s why only, the coup makers had concentrated on the epics at their maximum level. I start my discussion on this coup with Sri Ramayanam.

As per Sri Ramayanam, Sri Rama belonged to Surya Vamsam i.e. race. His fore fathers were Ikswaku, Manuvu and Satya HarithsChandra etc great kings. They were the followers of Dharma, truth and sincerity. Regarding Satya HarithsChandra, as I discussed in the beginning of this topic, some jokes were made and popularized until the anti spirit or until the idea of ‘if we tell truth, we have to suffer like anything’ up to the roots of all sections of the public.

Hence, a great story, a great fact, a great episode that was able to motive people to tell truth, which was able to inspirit people to practice the morals, was deleted from society. This is because; the story of Satya Harithschandra had motivated Bapu to tell truth. It made a normal man in to strong soul i.e. Mahatma.

That is the main reason to demolish that story from the public life. The ‘Surabhi’ poetic Drama Company and other art societies, which were exhibiting the real story of Satya HarithsChandra and other epic stories as dramas with Telugu poems and dialogues, had strategically made to collapse by the coup makers.

In fact, in the story of Satya HarithsChandra, his wife Chandra Mati Devi, being queen, she left all the wealth, kingdom and followed her husband to forest, to Kasi city in the part of following the truth and Dharma. Whenever HarithsChandra lost courage and fell in depression, she motivated him to follow the righteous way.

His son Lohithasya also, being child, he followed his parents. The poems of such characters, though the lyric is classical with Grammatik values, villagers could understand the high level of language. Now such capacity is lapsed in city people and in villagers.


Thus, total family was stubborn to follow moral values and truth. It leads people to support their family members with unity whenever they fell in troubles. With the memories of such stories, wives could remember their responsibility to support their husbands in difficulties.

On such story, satires, jokes, critics had made. Wantedly media didn’t give space to the voice of scholars, righteous people, and intellectuals like Usha Sri, Viswanadha Satya Narayana and others, the then responsible people who tried to support the story.

Strategically the media including News paper, weeklies, periodicals, movies, conferences, discussions and with government officials indirect support [this they managed with corruption] had given full space to the voice of people like Ranganayakamma who criticized the story.
