Question about the Southern Recension of Ramayana

[Balasubramanian Ramakrishnan]

Dear List members,

I have been using the sundarakANDam (SK) published by the Vani Vilas Press (1973) for a long time. As it has started going to pieces, I wanted to replace it. So I looked at the Gita Press book, but it seems to have some differences, as well as missing shlokas here and there. I thought that the Gita Press also used the Southern recension. As an aside, it seems some of the chants of the SK available in CDs and on platforms like spotify also use the Gita Press edition. I have the CD of the SK by Pandit V. Raghavendra Sharma and like that (also available on spotify).  

The Vani Vilas Press SK printing basically seems to be the same as the one printed by T. R. Krishnamacharya in Kumbakonam (1911). See:

https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.467625/mode/2up

Is there any recent printed version of the SK, or even the entire rAmAyaNa, which follows this edition available? I can always get my old SK book rebound as the last option. But I was wondering if the members of this list know of any good publications which follow this edition.

Thank you.

Ramakrishnan

Have you looked at the ramayanam text published by webolim (Shri Ranganji son of Shri Krishna Premi) 

I was told their edition was based on a hand written version of the ramayanam preserved over many generations 

Not sure whether this answers your question but Shri Rangan ji is someone who has done extensive research in ramayanam and that's published out of that

Thank you Harissh-ji. Is this what you are referring to: https://webolimramayanashlokamala.wordpress.com/ ? 

It seems to be a very selected downsampled subset of the rAmAyaNam - only 119 shloka-s.

Definitely not 

They have a book for every kaanda along with english translation for every shloka

Thanks.

I have a 3-volume Valmiki Ramayan with Govindarajiya, Maheshvara Tirtha, Ramanujiya Tanishloki commentaries printed and published by the well known Venkateshvara Press, Kalyan [Devanagari]. Although the book is silent in the matter of which rescension it follows, my failing memory says that it follows Southern Rescension. Others could support or contradict.

Thanks and regards,

Murthy
