Is Ravan a Asura? Why he got 10 heads? Kindly clear my doubts. Hari Om.
Posted by GJNNAIR on September 20, 2011
Dear Nairji,
An Asura is the One who immersed himself in sensual and worldly pleasures.
So, Ravana was an Asura.
His ten heads indicate “DasaMugha” personality, that means, his mastery in so many fields – as a musician, scholar in Vedantam, warrior, administrator etc. He was a multifaceted personality.
HariOm!
