Book Description  
This book discusses the the character of Bharata in the Ramayana.Bharata is offered an opportunity to enjoy the power and wealth which comes from being king of Ayodhya. His heart, however,is filled with a deep sense of righteousness and he will not accept any gain which comes to him through unjust means. Bharata's sense of justice is matched only by his love for Rama. The author shows how Bharata stands as a powerful symbol of inspiration and resistance to the temptations of power.
