Dussehra, also called Vijayadashami,
in Hinduism, holiday marking the triumph of Rama, an avatar of Vishnu, over the
10-headed demon king Ravana, who abducted Rama’s wife, Sita. The festival’s
name is derived from the Sanskrit words dasha (“ten”) and hara (“defeat”).
Symbolizing the victory of good over evil, Dussehra is celebrated on the 10th
day of the month of Ashvina (September–October), the seventh month of the Hindu
calendar, with the appearance of the full moon, an event called the “bright
fortnight” (shukla paksha). Dussehra coincides with the culmination of the
nine-day Navratri festival.
In North India, Dussehra festival is
celebrated as the day when Lord Rama killed the demon king Ravana at Lanka.
According to Hindu mythology, it is said that Ravana kidnapped Lord Rama's wife
Sita. Ravana also got a boon from Lord Brahma for being indestructible. Lord
Rama is considered as the seventh reincarnation of Lord Vishnu and in the
battle; Lord Rama managed to shoot an arrow in the belly of Ravana and killed
him. That is why, Dussehra festival is celebrated as a victory of good over
evil.
There are several mythological
stories behind this festival. This day in some parts of India signifies the day
on which Goddess Durga killed the demon Mahishasur. That is why all the nine
avatars of Goddess Durga are worshipped on the Navaratri. It is also said that
Goddess Durga immersed in water with the devotees who signifies the departure
of Goddess Durga from the material world after maintaining Dharma. In South
India, Dussehra festival mainly, in Mysore, Karnataka is celebrated as the day
when Chamundeshwari, another avatar of Goddess Durga killed demon Mahishasur.
Do you know that the entire city is illuminated with colourful lights and
decorated beautifully? In fact parades of elephants which carry processions of
Goddess Chamundeshwari were also carried throughout the city.
