He was also popularly referred to as \u003ci\u003e'Rashtra Kavi'\u003c\/i\u003e i.e., National Poet. The poem Rashmirathi was first published in 1952 and is considered one of the finest examples of Hindi literature. The poem is a dramatic monologue delivered by Karn as well as a few other central characters of the Indian \u003ci\u003eItihasa\u003c\/i\u003e epic \u003ci\u003eMahabharat\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs I grew up, Rashmi Rathi became one of the greatest sources of inspiration for me over time.\u003cbr\u003eIt is interesting to see how the poem \u003ci\u003e'Rashmirathi'\u003c\/i\u003e goes beyond being just a piece of poetry and contains a deep philosophical aspect. This poem serves as a reminder of the valuable teachings of the Indic knowledge systems that are still relevant in today's world.\u003cp\u003eTherefore, I have made my best effort to translate and render the meaning of the Hindi poem into its truest sense in English, with some changes to keep the proper flow of poetry. I wish that this timeless message and teachings of Rashmirathi and Mahabharat can reach a broader readership in India as well as beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Akshay Raghav\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8399084735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798399084732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/20\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.11d","brand":"Akshay Raghav","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44717397377279,"sku":"9798399084732","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fd0045d7-e97c-47b2-b95c-01b545ac763e.jpg?v=1705688071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/karn-akshay-raghav-9798399084732","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
