Rama is the name of the greatest Vedic ruler of ancient India. It is said about Rama, "In the reign of Rama, suffering belonged to no one." The entire history of the reign of Rama is recorded in the Vedic literature, in the branch called Itihasa (i.e. History) in a seven volume account entitled the "Ramayana." The original Ramayana is attributed to the great Vedic sage Valmiki.
Valmiki's real name was Ratnakara. He was a hunter / robber by profession/practice. Later as adivised by Rishi Narada, he gave up as hunter/robber and started chanting and meditating the holy name of Rama. He continued to meditate for a long time in the forest with out realising that an anthill (Valmika in Sankrit) was formed around his body, thereafter he attained complete awareness (Jnanodaya). Thus his name became Valmiki.
