| | In the Hindu epic Ramayana, Vali was the monkey-King of Kishkindha, a son of Indra and the elder brother of Sugriva. | | | Sugriva had thought that Vali was dead, and so had ruled in his stead, but though he'd tried to explain the situation to Vali, Vali would not listen, and had him driven out of the kingdom. | | | Vali had been known as a good and pious monkey-king, but had been too arrogant to listen to Sugriva after his brother had accidentally sealed the entrance to a cave in which Vali was fighting a demon. |

| | The Hindu : Perennial appeal of the epic |
| | The Ramayana is not just an epic delineating the life of Rama but a work embodying the eternal wisdom of the scriptures which has perennial appeal. | | | When Sugriva met Rama and Lakshmana, he intuited rightly that Rama was not an ordinary human being and forgave Vali for his predicament because it was due to suffering at his hands that he was able to meet Rama and seek refuge in Him. | | | The name Ramacharitamanasa chosen by Goswami Tulasidas for his Ramayana gives an insight into the purpose of this work - that a dip into this divine lake will make man immortal. |
