राम रावण युद्ध

Hanuman dwara Sita ka pata lag jaane ke baad Shri Ram ne Lanka par aakraman karne ka nirnay liya. Parantu sabse badi samasya thi — vishal samudra ko paar karna. Ram ne teen din tak samudra se marg maanga, parantu samudra ne koi uttar nahi diya. Tab krodhit Ram ne dhanush uthaya, jisse bhayabhit hokar Samudradev prakat hue aur unhone bataya ki vanar sena mein Nal aur Neel namak do vanar hain jinke sparsh se patthar tairne lagte hain. Is prakar Ramsetu ka nirman hua aur sampoorn vanar sena ne samudra paar kiya.

Lanka mein Ravan ke chhote bhai Vibhishan ne Ravan ko samjhane ka prayas kiya ki Sita ko sammanpoorvak lauta den, parantu Ravan ne krodh mein Vibhishan ko Lanka se nikal diya. Vibhishan Ram ki sharan mein aaye aur Ram ne unhe Lanka ka raja banane ka vachan diya. Vibhishan ne Ram ko Lanka ki sampoorn ranneetik jaankari pradan ki.

Yuddh ka shankhnaad hua. Vanar sena aur rakshass sena ke beech atyant bhishan sangram aarambh hua. Angad, Nal, Neel, Sugreev, Jambavan aur anya vanar veeron ne adbhut shaurya dikhaya. Rakshass sena ke anek maharathi — Atikaya, Kumbhakarna, Prahast — ek-ek karke veergati ko prapt hue.

Kumbhakarna ka yuddh mein aagman sarvadhik bhayavah tha. Woh chhah maas sone ke baad jaga aur uska vishalkay shareer dekhkar vanar sena mein bhay vyaapt ho gaya. Kumbhakarna ne akele hi hazaron vanaron ka samhar kiya. Antatah Ram ne apne divya baanon se Kumbhakarna ke bhujaon aur sir ko kaat diya. Kumbhakarna ke patan se Ravan ka hriday vidirna ho gaya.

Meghanad (Indrajeet) Ravan ka sabse shaktishali putra tha. Usne Brahmastra aur Nagpash jaise divyastron ka prayog kiya. Nagpash se Ram aur Laxman donon bandh gaye, parantu Garud ne aakar unhe mukt kiya. Meghanad ne Shakti astra se Laxman ko moorchhit kar diya. Vaidya Sushen ne bataya ki Sanjeevani Booti se hi Laxman ke praan bach sakte hain. Hanuman ne Dronagiri parvat par jakar, jab Sanjeevani Booti ki pehchaan nahi ho pai, to sampoorn parvat hi uthakar le aaye. Sanjeevani se Laxman swasth hue aur unhone bhishan yuddh ke baad Meghanad ka vadh kiya.

Ab Ravan swayam yuddhbhoomi mein utara. Das sir aur bees bhujaon wala Ravan atyant bhayankar dikhai de raha tha. Uske paas Brahma se prapt anek divyastra the. Ram aur Ravan ke beech ka yuddh atyant bhishan aur lamba tha. Ravan ke sir kaatne par punah naye sir ug aate. Donon ne ek-doosre par anek divyastron ka prayog kiya. Aakash kaampne laga, prithvi dolne lagi, aur devta bhayabhit hokar dekhte rahe.

Antatah Agastya Muni ne Ram ko "Aditya Hridayam" stotra ka updesh diya — Surya Bhagwan ki stuti, jiske paath se divya shakti prapt hoti hai. Ram ne teen baar Aditya Hridayam ka paath kiya. Iske baad Ram ne Vibhishan se Ravan ki mrityu ka rahasya jaana — Ravan ki naabhi mein amrit tha. Ram ne Brahmastra par abhimantrit kiya aur Ravan ki naabhi mein maara. Brahmastra ne Ravan ki naabhi ka amrit sukha diya aur Lankapati Ravan dharashaayi ho gaya.

Ravan ke vadh ke baad Vibhishan ko Lanka ka raja banaya gaya. Sita agni pariksha se guzarkar apni pavitrata siddh kar lautin. Agnidev ne swayam Sita ki shuddhta ki gawaahi di. Ram, Sita, Laxman aur sampoorn vanar sena Pushpak Viman se Ayodhya laute. Chaudah varsh ka vanvas poorn ho chuka tha.

Ayodhya mein Bharat aur samast praja ne deepak jalakar Ram ka swagat kiya. Sampoorn Ayodhya deepon ki roshni se jagmaga uthi — yahi Deepawali ka utsav hai jo aaj bhi prativarsh manaya jaata hai. Shri Ram ka rajyabhishek hua aur "Ramrajya" ki sthapna hui — ek aisa aadarsh rajya jahan nyay, dharma aur praja ka kalyan sarvopari tha.
