After the holy and pleasant days of Shardiya Navratri, it is now time for the auspicious beginning of Hindu festivals. In Sanatan Dharma, all the major festivals begin after the celebration of Dussehra. Dussehra is celebrated on the Dashami Tithi of Shukla Paksha in the month of Ashwin. Dussehra symbolizes the happy victory of Lord Ram and Maa Durga over evil. The whole of India celebrates this grand and divine festival together. Two days from today, effigies of Ravana, Meghnad, and Kumbhakaran will be burnt in India's main corners and streets. Paras Parivaar wishes you a very Happy Dussehra. Every year, this festival gives the message of victory of good over evil to the people.

Dussehra is celebrated all over the country, and the ways of celebrating it are different in every state. The enthusiasm for festivals remains throughout the Country as well as outside India at this time. In India, this festival is celebrated with full enthusiasm, zeal, and positive energy. This is the time when the whole country is immersed in full devotion and enthusiasm. The ways of celebrating this festival are also different in every part of the country. Some parts of the country celebrate this evening as the victory of Lord Shri Ram, and at some places as the Victory of Maa Durga.

Festival of Maa Durga:

It is also necessary to discuss two different dimensions of celebrating Dussehra. According to Shri Paras Bhai ji and study of mythology shows that when Mahishasur, due to the boon of the Tridev, created havoc in the world and the Devlok with his terror, Devas Didn't find any solution and they reached the Tridev. After hearing this, Tridev created the great power in the form of Maa Durga from Their anger. Maa Navdurga, dedicated to Women's Power, fought a fierce battle with Mahishasur for nine days, after which on the tenth day Maa Durga killed Mahishasur. This day is celebrated as Dussehra across the Country, where the Maa freed all the Devas from fear by destroying the demon powers. In West Bengal, these nine forms of Maa Durga are happily worshiped in huge Pandals, and Maa Durga is immersed on the day of Vijayadashami. 

In the form of Shri Ram’s Victory.

In the Northern parts of India, Ramlila is organized in the nine days of worship of Maa Durga. This Ramlila is concluded with Ravana Dahan on the evening of Vijayadashami. According to the Ideology of Hindu Dharma scriptures, during the 14 years of exile of Shri Ram, Lankapati Ravana abducted Shri Ram's wife Janaki Mata Sita. To bring back his wife safely and destroy Ravana's unrighteousness and cruelty, Shri Ram killed Ravana after a tough penance and war. 

After all this, the message of the victory of Dharma over Adharma is being expended throughout the World.
