This presentation was created for the Yogafox teacher training program, where every student is assigned a deity to study and do a project or presentation on. I was given the god Rama, and I teamed up with my fellow teacher in training Margit Hamilton who was given the goddess Sita, who is Rama's wife in the great epic story The Ramayana. Together we created this presentation, using our own version of the Rama & Sita story after reading about the many variations of the story's  specifics.  This was orignally a Powerpoint presentation and converted to an online presentation using SlideRocket's web app software.  Thanks to Margit, Keith & Kelly, Google Images,  and Nina Paley for her amazing movie Sita Sings the Blues. Enjoy,  Namaste, and all that jazz.     :)
