Ramayana.Ravana Real, Existed Study

I have been posting on the historicity of Lord Rama and am planning to write on the Birth date od Lord Krishna.

While I was 'Story telling' my grand son, 4, he asked me whether Ravana was real or a story.

That struck me.

I have been going after facts on Lord Rama, the route taken by Him, His Birth Date and never for a moment it struck me to go after Ravana.

If Lord Rama is real, so should Ravana Be, as the whole Ramayana minus Ravana is Zero!

I did some checks and this Post.

A Study by Tharaka Devinda Gunasekera, a Sri Lankan( what better source could there be!) attempts to prove Ravana was real.

The author has sifted Facts from Myths and has done a good interpretation.

His proof consists of Three facts.

In the days of Wealth, Wine , Women and Match fixing Sachin Tendulkar stands in his sterling character.

More than the Cricketer,' the Man behind shines through.

DOING A PENANCE: Sachin Tendulkar does "go puja" at end of the two-day "sarpa santharpane" at Kukke Subrahmanya temple in Dakshina Kannada .
