I created this video with the YouTube Slideshow Creator (http://www.youtube.com/upload) Thousands of residents witnessed the triumph of good over evil, with Lord Rama burning the effigies of Ravan, Meghnath, and Kumbhkaran This hugely popular festival falls on the 10th day of the waxing moon during the Hindu month of Ashvin (3 rd October ). On this day, Rama, the god-king and hero of the great Hindu epic, Ramayana, killed the unrighteous Ravana, the 10-headed demon king of Lanka who had abducted Rama wife, Sita. It is believed that Lord Ram brother Lakshmana, along with an army of monkeys, fought a colossal battle that lasted 10 days. Rama, who was a devout believer of Durga, the Goddess of War, prayed to her for the first nine days of battle and killed the evil Ravana on the 10th day. He shot Ravana with a bow that pierced his navel. Out flowed the nectar of immortality that was stored in a pot in his navel, thus destroying his invincibility. Ravans own brother Vibhishana (being the sensible one, he had switched sides) had divulged this secret to Rama. Rama also slew Ravana brother Kumbhkarna Lakshmana killed Ravana son, Meghnath. and Dussehra is the festival that commemorates this triumph of Good over Evil.
