This book is a collection of short stories which fictionalizes history - the 16th to the19th century of Spanish rule and Christianity in Philippines - as a means to explore religious faith and cultural difference and tells the stories of different characters during the Spanish era of colonial rule far from the mother country ruled by the Governor Generals appointed by the King of Spain to represent the state and the Bishop representing the Friars who originally help bring the natives into the fold and a constant battle between church and state kept the country under siege most of the time.

The volume contains thirty contributions to the theme of the classical Indian epic Ramayana. These are revised and occasionally enlarged versions of papers read at the International Ramanaya Conference, held at the University of Leuven in July 1991 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Sanskrit and Indological studies in Leuven and in Belgium. The annotated papers, in English, have been grouped in three chapters: 1. Valmiki's Ramayana and Sanskrit epic literature; 2. International impact: translations and adaptations, reception of Sanskrit language and literature in the scholarly world; 3. Universal human values in Ramayana. The index of names, titles and key words will prove useful for reference and occasional cross-reference.
