    EP: 30 Why Do Some People Worship Raavan?

    अधर्म पर धर्म की जीत का पर्व, विजयादशमी की अनंत शुभकामनाएँ! Namaste! Welcome to Did you know? Series with Amish Tripathi. Today on this Dussehra, let’s learn a little more about Raavan and not only see him as the demon king, but as a complex figure that he was—respected in some temples for his knowledge, music, and devotion to Lord Shiva. Travel across India, from Rajasthan to Tamil Nadu, and find Raavan’s story told with not just one shade but many—not always as a villain, but as a scholar, ruler, and tragic hero. His brilliance brought wealth to Lanka, but his pride and flaws led to his fall. Even in defeat, his last moments gave us lessons on wisdom and humility. Raavan’s journey reminds us: arrogance undoes greatness, and often our real enemy is within. His story is a mirror for all—can we master ourselves before judging others?

Your fingers are more than just tools—they carry centuries of wisdom, symbols of philosophy, and spiritual teachings from our ancestors. Join Amish as he unravels the meaning behind each finger: Thumb (Angushtha): The commander, representing Agni (fire), willpower, and divine consciousness. See how the thumb’s energy leads your hand and your intentions. Index Finger (Tarjani): The instructor, symbolizing Vayu (air) and our individual ego. Discover why this finger has always pointed the way for consciousness and expression. Middle Finger (Madhyama): The middle path, connected to Akasha (space). Its subtle energy expands the mind and brings harmony in spiritual gestures. Ring Finger (Anamika): The nameless one, rooted in Prithvi (earth). This finger binds us to traditions, grounding us with love and permanence and hence we wear our wedding rings here. Little Finger (Kanishtha): The expressive youngest, channeling Jal (water), emotions, and adaptability. Don’t underestimate its power; ancient promises (like the pinky swear!) echo its emotional resonance. Explore how these fingers form powerful mudras in yoga, balancing your body and mind, and how every gesture holds a spiritual lesson.
