The Big King In Sri Lanka(RAVANA)


        First let's look at what we have sources that tell us the story of Ravana. He was the son of a Brahmin named 'Vishrava and a princess named' Kaikesi '. When Kaikesi of age to marry, "Sumali 'to his father the king of the Daityas, wished to marry the most powerful and noble man in the world.
He refused a large number of tenders submitted by a series of prices and went to Vishrava place. She agreed to marry Kaikesi. However, he said Kaikesi approached her at the wrong time, and children would be born of them bent toward evil.

        Ravana was the eldest of the children they had. He was named "Dasagriva" or "Dashanana" as it is believed that he had ten heads. But this may be because he had the power and the strength of ten men. Some say the ten heads were due to the reflections of a crystal necklace gifted to him by his father at the time of his birth, or had the mental strength of 10 people. Ravana had two brothers, Vibhishana and Kumbhakarna and a sister, Meenakshi (later called Shoorpanakha).

            During the time of Ravana, the kingdom "Lanka" was divided between the three rulers of the Queen Mandratha. Ie Tharaka, who ruled from a place near the present Kelaniya day Surapadma, who ruled from the south near Tissamaharama. The third Sinha, - Mukha not have a city to govern from. So asked the greatest architect and engineer of all time, Asura Maya (known by some as "Vishwakarma" for him to build the city "Lankapura." (The legend says that this is the same Atlantis)

        But soon, the Surapadma king had a dispute with a foreign king and takes him into custody and takes him to Lanka. This triggers an event that shapes the country's history. A prince named Kathira (later renamed "Mahasena" because they carry a great army), try Lanka (The place was their armies is now known as "Katharagama" - Kathira - Range broken-) and the prince rescues kidnapped Surapadma for killing. Unfortunately, during this time, and Sinha Tharaka Mukha-out of their strongholds and flee the country. The country is in the hands of a king named Kuvera (also known as Kubera), also known as a son of Vishrava. (The father of Ravana)

      It is then, Ravana and Kuvera overthrows the attacker ensures the country and most importantly, the "Pushpaka" the flying machine. Kuvera not have known to use it, but Ravana, who had much knowledge that he gave his father and his studies of the Vedas could have had an idea of ​​how to fly the thing. Of the stories told about Queen Devayani (mentioned below) showing the combat capabilities of the Pushpaka, Ravana could have imagined it would be a great advantage of having a trade.

    He led the country into a period of maximum prosperity. It is rumored that the poorest households in the country had pots of gold for food. People did not know the meaning of hunger. This culture is thriving, he decided to branch off, and it all happened because of a single female. (Still do not know if this story is true kidnapping) We believe it was an incident of any kind tragedic.

    Lastreferences Ravana are in the war he had with Rama. He was a great opponent of Rama. Given the fact that his knowledge of the tactics of science and the warrior, Rama was no match for him. But help in Rama Vibhishana received seems to have worked for him. If not for that, the story is told in a different way.

     Some argue that the story of abduction is done by setting himself Ravana Vibhishana to topple their empire. The states of the Ramayana that Rama even win his queen in a war, Sita did not trust to be pure. But Sita was pure and showed that this also says that Ravana did not even touch a woman when she was in Lanka. Why kidnapped and then continue until she says "Yes" when you can always do what you want by force. This is a serious question that we seek answers. We have seen the salacious political news all our lives and all countries, need to know to be bad politicians when they want power. Perhaps Vibhishana was overtaken by his lust for empire to force him to such action.
