Rahwana

Rahwana

In Hindu mythology, Ravana ', Prabhu Dasa, Prabhu Dasamuka (Devanagari: रावण, IAST Rāvaṇa, sometimes dialihaksarakan as Raavana and Ravan or Revana) are the main opposing figures against Rama in Hindu Literature, Ramayana. In the story, he is King of Alengka, as well as Rakshasa or the devil, thousands of years ago.
Rawana is depicted in art with ten heads, indicating that he has knowledge in the Vedas and literature. Having ten heads he was given the name "Dasamukha" (दशमुख, tenfold), "Dasagriva" (दशग्रीव, ten necked) and "Dasakanta" (दशकण्ठ, ten thorn). He also has twenty hands, showing infinite pride and willpower. He is also said to be a great knight.
