Ravana - still alive!

No wonder Lord Rama made sure that the arrow has teared past the Ravana BUT the ten heads of Ravana symbolising:                                                                                        

  1. Kama vasana (Lust)             
  2. Krodha (Anger)
  3. Moha (Delusion)
  4. Lobha (Greed)
  5. Mada (Over Pride)
  6. Matsara (Jealousy)
  7. Manas (Mind)
  8. Buddhi (Intellect)
  9. Chitta (Will)
  10. Ahankara (Ego)    
 are still pervading in our society.
 Not a new news that India is oscillating in the clocks of corruption, pollution,poverty, starvation and the pendulum seems unstoppable!
Instead of pasting "kuch nahin hone waala India ka" in our minds and blame  it on, we better look at ourselves and TRY and control the 10 OVERPOWERING THINGS in our life.
Sounds tough, does it?

YES! we need to celebrate Dussehra all over again and again because we tend to forget the reason why we burnt the effigy of Ravana, Kumbhkaran and Meghnad an year ago. Funny!(No wonder we always went to see the show for the 'aloo tikkis' 'gol-gappas'and other 'mela stuff' ha!).

We need to burn the Ravana living inside us. Just identify which of its head is trying overpower your head...might be lust, might be anger, might be ego.....! Identify and start working. This small excercise who knows might turn us into good citizens and good human beings.
Have a Happy Dussehra! :)
