Today was beautiful contrast of Ram and Ravan. Once again a beautiful path crossing. Ravan he decides to fight from sky while his opponent is on the ground. This is where misuse of power happens. Also this is where a person fails in dealing with power.

The way CVs showed Ram-Ravan contrast is the way in real life also , when you deal with power. You will have all the caliber, but if you don't have the equivalent power then you will not be able to defeat the person with power. The only difference with the power on the dharma side is that it is acquired through your actions or the actions of your parents or even grand parents. But the power of adharma is snatched.

This is where the interesting contrast comes. Ram's journey starts because of the boon Dasrath gave to Kaikeyi when she protected him during Devasur war. It was the misuse of those boons that gave Ram Vanvass. So Ram's suffering was the bad karma of his parents.

But the good karma they acquired by supporting Devas in the war, at the end of Ram's journey of Vanvass that good karma comes to him in the form of divine chariot given by Lord Indra. Life is always circle. You will end where you started but always with a different perspective. Beautifully shown in the screenplay.

Another thing they showed was the way Ram accepting Indra's help. Indra tells the reason why he is helping Ram that is the support Dasrath gave to Devas. Even here you see Ram observing maryada. He knows you give support because you always have a personal gain if the concerned person wins. And at times you have to return the favour also. So if someone suddenly comes and helps you with great power unless you know the motive don't accept it. Else you will end up like Karna. Obligations will force you to follow the path of adharma.

If you know the reason why help is offered accept it graciously. Don't be too self-righteous not to take it . it is idiotic if you do that thinking you will be laughed at the way Ravan laughs at Ram. Ram gives the answer too. Yudh happens between equals. I asked you to come down. Since you didn't come I have come up. It was beautiful and symbolic . Will put an individual post for this line.

Now another interesting aspect. Defense of Prakriti. Yes if you follow dharma defense of Prakriti , power of Prakriti will come. But it wont be seen easily. You will have to put effort and only at the most oppourtune moment only it will come. So never stop putting effort. Trust nature. It will be there for you when you need most, just like the chariot came for Ram.

@ayushi thanks dear. If you look the images of Sanathana Dharma none frightens you, it only evokes respect.

It is the only religion that doesn't use " Don't" or else. It only says results are based on actions and the choice of doing action it gives to you.

Do read my fiction ayushi. Would like to know comments. When I feel readers who have reading it suddenly disappearing I feel did they lose connect with the story. It is not only positive comments I am expecting always, if someone tells something is not right as a writer it gives me an option to introspect and do course correction also.
