*Ramcharitmanas* is an epic poem written in Awadhi, a dialect of Hindi, by the 16th-century poet Tulsidas. It narrates the story of Lord Rama, based on the Sanskrit *Ramayana* by Valmiki. The *Ramcharitmanas* is divided into seven *Kands* (books), which are as follows:
1. **Baal Kand**: It describes the birth of Lord Rama, his childhood, and his marriage to Sita.
2. **Ayodhya Kand**: It narrates the events that lead to Lord Rama's exile into the forest.
3. **Aranya Kand**: This book focuses on the events of Lord Rama's exile in the forest and the abduction of Sita by Ravana.
4. **Kishkindha Kand**: It tells the story of Lord Rama's encounter with Sugriva and Hanuman and the search for Sita.
5. **Sundar Kand**: It focuses on Hanuman's journey to Lanka and his role in finding Sita.
6. **Lanka Kand (Yuddha Kand)**: This book describes the battle between Lord Rama and Ravana, the rescue of Sita, and the defeat of evil.
7. **Uttar Kand**: The final section narrates Lord Rama's return to Ayodhya, his coronation, and events that occur later in his life.
The *Ramcharitmanas* is deeply revered in Hinduism and is often recited during religious occasions. It is praised for its devotion to Lord Rama and its teachings on righteousness, duty, and devotion.
