DUSSEHRA / VIJAYADASHMI


The Dussehra is an important Hindu festival. The significance of the Dussehra festival lies in its religious values. 

According to the great Hindu epic Ramayana, Lord Ram killed Ravana on the tenth day of Navaratri that is Dussehra. It is called as triumph of virtue over sin or immorality.




The nine days of Navaratri are classified as per the three basic qualities of tamas, rajas and sattva. The first three days are tamas, where the goddess is fierce, loke Durga and Kali. The next three days are Lakshmi related- gentle but materially oriented goddness. The last three days are dedicated to Saraswati, which is sattva. It is related to knowledge and enlignment. 


After Navaratri, the tenth day and the final day is Vijayadashmi- that means you have conquered all of these qualities. You did not give into any of them, you saw through every one of them. You participated in every one of them, but did not invest in any one of them. You won over them. That is Vijyadashmi, the day of victory. This brings home the message of how being in reverence and gratitude towards everything that matters in our lives leads to success and victory.
