What is Sundarkand Path?
Sundarkand Path is the recitation of the Sundara Kanda of the Ramayana — Hanuman’s leap to Lanka, his meeting with Sita and the burning of Lanka — sung from Tulsidas’s Ramcharitmanas or read from Valmiki’s Ramayana, for courage, success and the removal of obstacles.

Telugu families read Valmiki’s Sundarakanda parayanam, often in 68 sargas over several days.
Pandits follow the Telugu Smarta and Vaishnava traditions: mantras are chanted in Sanskrit, and the sankalpam and explanations are given in Telugu. Muhurthams follow the Telugu panchangam (Chandramana calendar).
