Is that a festival? heehe
I'm curious to know about the burning of Ravana. My late husband was from The Bahamas. They had a holiday where they celebrated by burning an effigy of a man named Guy Fawkes. Evidently he was a traitor. I am from USA and I remember when my husband first told me about the tradition, I thought: "WOW! They really do not like this guy!"
I'm sorry about your husband. In our Indian culture, we celebrate Ravana Dahan before the Dewali festival. Ravana was a very bad man, he was evil. And he kidnapped Goddess Sita that's why Ram who was Sita's husband Killed Ravana. The ambition of Ram's birth was especially to kill Ravana.
Thanks. I understand now. Bad people should never be given a place of honor. People should never forget the wrongs that have been and should be reminded so that they don't repeat the deeds. Be safe when you celebrate.
Yeah, you are saying right. We have no place in our hearts for bad people.
