Dusshera: Celebration Of Victory Of Truth

History

Vijayadashami is also known as Dussehra. In Hindu tradition, it is a victory on the evil of truth. It is celebrated at the end of Navratri in the month of October. In the southern, eastern and northeastern states of India, Vijayadashami marks the end of Durga Puja, remembering goddess Durga’s victory over the buffalo demon Mahishasura to restore and protect dharma. Ravana was ten-headed demon king of Sri Lanka who had kidnapped the wife of Lord Rama, Seeta to take revenge of his sister, Suparnakha. From then, the day Lord Rama killed Ravana was started celebrating as the Dussehra festival.
