Thus, the parampara (tradition) of Manas is as follows: Sage Sanakadi ji, after recieving it from Bhardwaj ji, incarnated as Swami Narharidas ji in this Kaliyuga and taught it to Goswami Tulsidas ji. Kakbhushundi ji then passed it on to sage Yagyavalkya ji, who in turn sang it to sage Bhardwaj ji. Although Lord Shiva then told it to Mata Parvati, but it was Kakbhushundi ji who received it through the proper Guru-Shishya (teacher-disciple) parampara. The conversations happen between Shiva and Parvati, Sages Bharadwaj and Yajnavalkya and finally Kakbhushundi and the king of birds, Garuda. Ramcharitmanas is structured around three separate conversations.

Chopai and Prasang in Shri Ramcharitmanas It is customary of the Indian tradition of writing that the author begins a new book with invocation to the Gods to ensure that the sankalpa is finished unhindered.

Tulsidas compared the seven Kāndas of the epic to seven steps leading into the holy waters of Lake Manasarovar “which purifies the body and the soul at once”. Ramcharitmanas consists of seven Kand (literally “books” or “episodes”, cognate with cantos).

Then he narrated the story and named it Ramcharitmanas as Shiva himself called it. His guru graciously repeated it again and again so that he could understand and remember it. Some understand this passage of the Ramcharitmanas to mean that Tulsidas at first could not grasp the story fully as he was a naïve young boy. Tulsidas claims to have received the story through his guru, Narharidas.Tulsidas was a naive (Acheta) child and the story was stored in his mind (Mānasa) for long before he wrote it down as Ramcharitmanas. He was relieved of his pain after this composition. He then composed the Hanuman Bahuk, where he describes his bodily pain and suffering in several stanzas. Around Vikram 1664 (1607 CE), Tulsidas was afflicted by acute pain all over his body, especially in his arms. He composed the epic over two years, seven months and twenty-six days, and completed the work in Vikram 1633 (1577 CE) on the Vivaha Panchami day (fifth day of the bright half of the Margashirsha month, which commenrates the wedding of Rama and his wife Sita). Tulsidas himself attests this date in the Ramcharitmanas. In the year Vikram 1631 (1575 CE), Tulsidas started composing the Ramcharitmanas in Ayodhya on Tuesday, Ramnavami day (ninth day of the bright half of the Chaitra month, which is the birthday of Rama). This also makes Tulsidas a contemporary of William Shakespeare. India was under the reign of Mughal emperor Akbar (1556-1605 CE) during this period. The Ramcharitmanas is written in vernacular Awadhi language and was composed at Ayodhya, Varanasi and Chitrakoot. The exact date is stated within the poem as being the ninth day of the month of Chaitra, which is the birthday of Rama, Rama Navami. Sant Tulsidas began writing the Ramcharitmanas in Ayodhya in Vikram Samvat 1631 (1574 CE).
