RAVANA  DAHAN....A SHAMEFULL ACT.......

FRIENDS DONT MIND....

TODAY  IS DASHEHRA...RAVANA  IS BURNT AGAIN...

AGAIN A DAY OF SHAME HAS BEEN CELEBRATED, WHICH HURTS

ME IN DEPTH.

WHETHER RAVANA DESERVES THIS PUNISHMENT EVERY YEAR?

WE BELIEVE RAM IS MARYADA PURUSHOTTAM ?

BUT RAVANA... WHAT WAS HE?

IF WE COMPARE THE PAERSONALITIES  OF RAMA AND RAVANA

WE FIND-------

1. RAVANA  WASA GREAT SCHOLAR,MATHEMATICIAN,PHILOSOPHER AND ASTROLOGIER, HIS RESEARCH AND CREATION "RAVANA SAMHITA" IS STILL IN PRACTICE AND MATCHLESS.

RAM WAS A PRINCE AND WAS IN THE FOREST UNDER FAMILY CONSPIRACY

2.RAVANA WAS A SELFMADE EMPEROR MADE HIS KINGDOM WITH HIS OWN SKILL AND EFFORTS, RAM GOT IT READYMADE.

3.RAVANA WAS A MAN OF PRINCIPLES.EVEN KNOWING THAT RAMA WAS CONSTRUCTING BRIDGE TO LANKA TO FIGHT WITH HIM..HE DID NOT DISTURBED AS  THE WAR WAS NOT DECLARED.ON INVITATION HE CONDUCTED THE PUJA OF LORD SHIVA FOR RAMA AS A PRIEST.EVEN DURING WAR HE FOLLOWED THE CODE OF CONDUCT OF WAR.RAMA TOOK THE SERVICES OF HIS RAJ VAIDAY SUKHEN ,HE NEVER OBJECTED.

BUT RAM BREACHED CODE OF CONDUCT OF WAR WHILE KILLING BAALI.RAVANA NEVER PLACED SUCH A DIRTY EXAMPLE

4.RAVANA KIDNAPPED "SITA"..IN ADRAMATIC MANNER TO TAKE REVENGE OF HIS ONLY LOVING SISTER CHANDDRANAKHA,WHOSE  EAR AND NOSE WAS CUT BY LAKSHMAN WITH CRUELTY.BECAUSE, SHE HAD PROPOSED TO MARRY WITH ANY OF THEM.THIS WAS TRADITION OF THE TIME ,NOT A CRIME.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME RAVANA DID NOT CUT ANY PART OF THE BODY OF SITA WHAT LAKSHMAN DID (WHO WAS DEVIL?)

RAVANA GAVE FULL HONOUR TO SITA.KEPT HER IN A SEPERATE PALACE IN ASHOK VATIKA WITH ALL FACILITIES.HE NEVER ABUSED HER,NOR TOUCHED HER.HE ONLY PROPOSED HER TO MARRY HIM WITH FULL DIGNITY

5.RAVANA WAS A SOCIAL REFORMER,DEVELOPED THE CONCEPT OF VILLAGE AND CULTIVATION. HE WAS AN ECONOMIST AND SCIENTIST TOO. HE HAD DEVELOPED SEVERAL FIREARMS ,MISSILES ,WAR TRICKS AND AIR CRAFT "PUSHPAK"

6.RAM SENT HIS PREGNANT WIFE TO THE JUNGLE ON HER FATE..TO THE WILD ANIMALS...,WHILE RAVANA RESPECTED HER IN HER PRISONMENT ALSO (WHO IS DEVIL?)

7.RAVANA WAS THE BRAVEST EMPEROR OF THE AGE AND CONQUIRED THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE KNOWN AT THAT TIME.

BECAUSE RAMA IS BELIEVED AS GOD , IN GREED OF WEALTH AND HEAVEN  WE HAVE LOST OUR MORAL.

WE ARE PROUD OF RAMA,

WE SHOULD BE PROUD OF RAVANA ,TOO.

I AM HURT EVERY  YEAR WHEN I SEE HIM BURNING...IT SHAKES ME.     TEARS COME IN MY EYES....

IN WAR ANY BODY HAS TO LOOSE.HE LOST.WE SHOULD RESPECT BOTH RAMA AND RAVANA.

IT IS SAD, PEOPLE  OF PRESENT SOCIETY,WHO RAPE INFANTS AND EAT THEIR FLESH.,KILL THE GIRLS IN THE  UTERINE........................ARE BURNING THE ONE OF THE GREATEST,BRAVEST AND PROUD PERSONALITY  OF HUMAN HISTORY..

.SHAME...SHAME...SHAME..
