Maharishi Valmiki
Maharishi Valmiki is the honorific name of the sage credited with the Ramayana, Sanskrit's founding epic of Rama, Sita, and the forest years. The abridged pairing with the Mahabharata on this list is a reader's door into two Indian oceans of story. The title Maharishi marks the teacher, not a second man. What remains is the poem: exile, loyalty, and a verse line that taught later India how an epic should sound.
