'Ravana was not killed by Rama' -- Mandodari, the queen of Ravana

[Guest guest]

On the death of Ravana, Mandodari, the queen of Ravana came to the battle field.

She said " How could this have happened, my lord? I am told that Rama, a mere

man, has been able to kill you! How could it have happened? I am not able to

believe this. It is not possible for a man to kill my lord. This Rama is not a

man. He is someone Divine. I know who Rama is? He is the Lord of all the three

worlds. He is lord Narayana. The greatest of yogis, the Paramatman, the

Ancient, the one Truth which has no beginning and no end nor any middle. He is

the lord of all the three worlds. Once upon a time, my lord, you performed tapas

with all your senses under perfect control and now, strangely enough, it was

these very senses which have proved to be your undoing. "

 

Mandodari, the court queen of Ravana lamented " " You were not defeated

in the war by Rama. It was your sinfulness which killed you. "

 

I request you to listen to Srimad Valmiki Ramayana when Mandodari lamented.
