India history and geography
Source: Wikipedia: India HistoryTulsidas was a Vaishnava Hindu saint and poet, renowned for his devotion to the deity Rama. He is best known as the author of the Hanuman Chalisa and of the epic Ramcharitmanas, a retelling of the Sanskrit Ramayana, based on Rama's life, in the vernacular Awadhi language. [...] He is believed by many to be a reincarnation of Valmiki. In the Hindu scripture Bhavishyottar Purana, the god Shiva tells his wife Parvati how Valmiki, who received a boon from Hanuman to sing the glory of Rama in vernacular language, will incarnate in future in the Kali Yuga (the present and last yuga or epoch within a cycle of four yugas). Nabhadas (a contemporary of Tulsidas) writes in his Bhaktamal (literally, the Garland of Bhakta or devotee) that Tulsidas was the re-incarnation of Valmiki in the Kali Yuga.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
