Dussehra is the festival of righteousness and truth emerging as victorious.
*Dussehra- Dus (दस) Hara (हारा). If we combine the two words, it means दस हारा.*
Pride has a fall, a proven fact. We are reminded of this every time we witness the powerful fire which burns the effigy of Ravana.
Inspite of being a powerful ruler, Ravana's immoral values cost him his life.
It is believed that he had ten heads. A correct thought process in the ten heads could have made so much of a difference towards bringing in prosperity and happiness. It instead, brought in complete destruction of Ravana.
Our mind-set and our thought-process are behind our success and failure which has to be self-analysed.
Greed could grip us but the purity of our heart and mind control our emotions. Self-satisfaction has to be the biggest asset of our lives. Self-satisfaction is the path to salvation.
Self-correction is also a must.
Arrogance kills our souls and being humble enlightens our souls.
Sensible thinking should be practised, else the repercussions and effects can be really harmful. Truth shall always emerge victorious in the end.
The path of truthfulness might be difficult to lead in today's world. There could be many hurdles too, to cross and to overcome. There could also be multiple difficulties which we may have to face. The respite in all this is that these troubles and tribulations make us more stronger and courageous than before. Our approach and aim should be a focused one with purity in our hearts. We surely shall emerge victorious.
The Divine Grace guides us, teaches us and gives us a chance. A chance to change our outlook and our perspective towards our betterment and growth.
A change in our individual lives could even change the collective national outlook at a macro level.
Therefore, let us learn and adopt the in-depth lessons hidden in every festival we celebrate in our incredible India.
