 Ravana was a demon as well as a Mahapandit . In front of their knowledge, 

even big  gods bowed their heads. Ravana was a great devotee of Lord Shiva. He offered all his ten Head to Lord Shiva. Because of this knowledge And sacrifice , Lord Shiva also gave a boon to Ravana. Ravana asked for immortality, which Lord Shiva refused to give, but gave him the celestial nectar of immortality.which was stored inside his belly,

REVENGE V/S FORGIVENESS

All of us in life are sad sometimes.When we are sad, there is a reason for this.It is wrong to hold others responsible for it, but we do the same.Sometimes it happens that someone hurts us by mistake.And sometimes it happens that someone deliberately hurts us.And we are not able to control ourselves and have a sense of revenge. And sometimes it is good or sometimes bad.Sometimes it is completely our fault.But still we give ourselves a clean chit.And give all the blame either to God or to luck. It is very easy to forgive yourself but.very difficult to others.That is why it is said that forgiveness is bravery or the work of brave people.

Sometimes when we cannot take revenge on someone, we curse him.But never thinking what would be gained by doing this.Some great men say THAT "Forgiveness is a True Penance " Forgiveness is a very good thing that we have been taught since childhood and according to Shrimad Bhagvat Geeta :-Revenge is the purest emotion.These two sentences are not against each other.There is a Similarity  Between the two.We just need to understand carefully.

 

Revenge is The Purest Emotion:-

According to Lord krishna :Revenge is a good lesson for those who are sinful ,egoistic and And those who always live in criminal behavior. And it is  very good example for the coming generation.If we forgive someone, then it depends on the other person how he understands it.May be he owes us a favor and does not make such a mistake again.And maybe they consider us weak and cheat again.
 There is a similar story in Ramayana Too ,When king Bali was dying He asked lord ram:-You are a very great warrior and I have no enmity with you, yet you hit me and that too from behind.Is it fair for a warrior and a great king. Bali's crime was not worth pardoning and it was not possible to kill him in front of him.That's why Ram had to do it. Just like we say "loha lohe ko katta hai ." aur we can say "tit for tat"

Forgiveness Is True Penence:-

When we forgive someone, we also get the benefit.Because Feeling of revenge is a big burden. 

And this burden crushes the peoples very badly.Burning in the fire of revenge destroys the wisdom of man.If someone's wisdom is destroyed, then think what his life will be like, his life is sure to be destroyed.In our society, most crimes are caused by revenge.Can a person be happy after taking revenge.Man cannot be happy after taking revenge.He too will have to bear the consequences of his actions.Don't forget "An Eye To Eye Make Whole World Blind ".Then it is better to take the path of Forgiveness.But it is a very big job to forgive.And we should think that somewhere we ourselves are responsible for this.And we should think that to take revenge on a thief, we should not become thieves ourselves.If the one in front is a sinner, then should we also become sinners.No, not at all its not a wisdom .The feeling of forgivenes is very cool .It will give you a lot of rest
