Happy-Dussehra



 According to the Hindu calendar, the holy festival of Vijayadashami is observed on the tenth day of Shukla Paksha of Ashwin month. This festival is celebrated as the victory of truth over falsehood as Lord Ram defeated Ravana and his army in a long battle. It is believed that burning the effigy of Ravana, Meghnad and Kumbhakaran on this day destroys all evils.

On the other hand, according to another mythology, there was a demon named Mahishasura, who was a great devotee of Brahma. He had pleased Brahmaji with his hard penance and obtained a boon that no deity or any human living on earth could kill him. After receiving the boon, he became extremely ruthless and arrogant and started creating terror in the universe. He started attacking the gods and defeated them in battle and started capturing their territory.


Disturbed by the terror of Mahishasura, all the gods and goddesses came to the shelter of Brahma, Vishnu and Lord Shiva. Seeing all the gods and goddesses in trouble, Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh gave birth to Goddess Bhagwati with their brilliance. And all the gods together equipped Maa Durga with all kinds of weapons. There was a fierce battle between Maa Durga and Mahishasura for ten days and on the tenth day Goddess Durga killed Mahishasura. This day is celebrated as the victory of truth over falsehood.

Celebrate the victory of the forces of good over Evil. Let us celebrate an auspicious day to begin new things in life.
