Raamleela

(9 November 1950)

(Ayodhya)

The Mosair revolutionaries have destroyed Babri Masjid, and put several cases in the Supreme Court for Ram Mandir, Krishna Mandir that was destroyed and Gyanwapi Masjid was built upon it, and several other Masjids that were built on the top of the temples.

Their goal is to restore Islam's respect by restoring the temples and shifting the Masjids to some other place.

And they want a new Masjid in Indian architectural style like in Cheraman mosque, the first mosque in India that was built by traders instead of invaders, during a time when Hindus believed that they shouldn't go outside of the country, to be built near Ram Mandir in exchange of Babri Masjid.

Anyway, the case of Ram Mandir will take atleast 5-6 years. The Archaeological survey that was done on the start of the case clearly showed that the Masjid was built upon a temple. Whether it was Ram Mandir or not isn't clear yet, so it will take time.

Anyway, today is Diwali, and throughout the country, people are celebrating.

In Ayodhya, a SuperCity, an airport was started being built as soon as BJS made the government, along with in every SuperCity.

While it will take several years for the Ram International Airport to be complete, one airstrip was complete along with a small terminus for security checks.

India is a country where most of the religions originated, and when Christianity and Islam didn't reach the orher countries, they reached India.

So, India wants to use such a huge advantage for tourism and diplomacy.

Diwali and Holi are the best festival to promote tourism, and diplomacy. Many guests will be invited in Cheraman mosque in Thissur for Eid, Golden Temple for Vaishakhi, St. Thomas Church in Payaloor for Chritmas, Bodh Gaya for Vesak, etc.

Today is Diwali, or Deepavali in Sanskrit, and ambassadors of all countries having diplomatic relations were invited, along with the king of Thailand, and many country's foreign ministers as well.

All Arab countries' leaders were also invited through US, along with Iran's caretaker leader Jaberi, but not one of them arrived, citing internal instability in their country. And it was true only for Iran.

Egypt is the only Muslim majority country aside from Indonesia that received the invitation well, and sent its foreign minister to finally establish diplomatic relations as India is supporting Egypt for a free Seuz Canal under the country it is in.

Moreover, since countries like Guyana, Suriname, South Africa, and many countries have huge Indian dispora, their main Indian or African freedom fighters were also invited and brought by TATA airlines free of cost.

Diwali is a symbol of the victory of good over evil, and the start of an era of Ramrajya. So they were invited to put more pressure on the colonial governments to get out of their countries. It isn't only beneficial for their freedom struggle, but also for India as well, because having good relations with them will mean ease in trade with the resource rich countries.

In Ayodhya, over a total of 103 foreign guests arrived, including the foreign ministers of PRC and USA, who don't have any diplomatic relationship so they will use this as an excuse to have a meeting.

In the newly built Ramleela Theater, which was beautifully decorated with huge rangolis, Diwali lights, and a huge Diya with eternal fire which was covered by a fireproof glass to prevent any accidents, everyone was surprised by how great it looked.

Inside the theater, Ramleela started, which was prepared under Satyajeet Ray's direction.

For those who didn't understand Hindi, which was most, a projector was playing Indic subtitles, which can as well be called Indian English with a lot more words and good spellings and pronunciation, in the subtitle area beneath the stage.

It was something new, something that no one has thought about until now.

Everyone was enjoying the show, when it reached the most important part, an indimating music started playing as the lights went off.

"So you have arrived, Ram."

A bone chilling voice said, as a large white theater screen was down in the stage, and a pair of eyes stared through the souls of the people.

"Aaaaah!"

Most of the people were terrified, some even screamed.

The Ani scene changed to Shri Ram facing Rawan who was sitting arrogantly on his throne.

Their hairs blew with the wind as they stared at each other.

Rawan approached Ram arrogantly as Ram shooted his arrow, which Rawan caught and crushed easily.

"I have Shivji's blessing. Normal arrows won't do anything."

And then, an epic fight scene started. Rawan started chasing Ram, as Ram coated the arrows with his chakra, which took some time for each arrow, and then shot them.

Rawan dodged many, laughing at Ram's aim, but he failed to realise that the arrows he dodged were to lead him into the place Ram wanted.

Rawan monologued, 'Wait! Something isn't right. I have never heard of Ram missing a shot...'

And then, Rawan's eyes widened in surprise as he saw Ram preparing Brahmastra, which will take some time.

But Rawan smirked, now that he knew Ram's strategy. But, even with his genius mind, even with his battle experience more than anyone else, he still had to dodge the incoming arrows in the position Ram wanted, or he will get hurt.

Ram is an avatar of Vishnu, the only one who can hurt Shiv. So, he didn't want to take any chances and be shot with any arrow infused with Ram's chakra.

Finally, Brahmastra was ready, and as Ram was about to shoot it, Rawan decided that it is better to be hit by a normal chakra infused arrow than Brahmastra.

People started cheering at how cool the Brahmastra was looking, and as Ram shot it, Rawan took a hit from an arrow but went out of Brahmastra's trajectory.

But, Brahmastra's trajectory changed mid-flight, and pierced Rawan's head, who was greatly shocked.

Rawan, with brahmastra piercing his head, and blood dripping out, said, "This is the first time someone was able to hurt me."

Before he dropped on the ground.

Everyone in the theater cheered as Ram decided to search for Sita.

But when everyone was cheering, Rawan's chilling voice came.

"Did you think this is the end?"

As if talking to audience itself.

Ram looked back in shock, as Rawan started standing up. He cut off his head, and a new head grew in its place. And not only that, eight more heads grew side by side.

"Hahahaha! Hahahaha! You are the first person who was able to hurt me. But you have revealed all your cards now.

As a sign of respect, I will also reveal my card. Not only I have gotten Shiv ji's blessing, but I also have drunk Amrit. You can't do anything to me! I am immortal!

Hahahaha! Hahahaha! "

This time, Rawan started ignoring all the arrows that were stuck on him and making him bleed, and attacked ram with his fist.

Ram dodged Rawan's attacks since he had unimaginable physical power, and kept firing off arrows while dodging.

Rawan was continuously laughing, and intending to finish Ram.

Suddenly, Ram found himself surrounded by an ominous fire shot from behind.

Surrounded by the fire, Ram saw the one who shot the fire.

It was another Rawan, who still had a hole in his head due to Brahmastra.

"So you have Ten heads."

"Yes. And don't even try to escape from this fire. No matter who you are, the fire will burn anything."

The holed head Rawan walked to the Nine-Headed Rawan, and the combined to form the Ten-Headed Rawan.

Rawan threw the Brahmastra beside Ram.

"Go on. I will give you one last try before I kill you. But, you can only kill one of my heads, and until even one head is alive, I can control every head! I am invincible! Hahaha! Hahaha!"

Ram picked up the Brahmastra, and smiled at Rawan.

He said a mantra, which held the meaning that arrogance leads to one's demise.

The Brahmastra disappeared from Ram's hands, and Ram a new arrow appeared in his hand.

The weight of the arrow itself made the ground beneath Ram crack. The arrow was as heavy as several mountains of heaven, and if not for Ram lifting it, it would have gone all the way to Patal-lok.

The arrow was made by Brahma himself, and even Vishnu and Shiv couldn't master it. No one but Ram capable of using it.

Rawan reacognised the arrow. As soon as he saw it, he started running away.

Shri Ram shot the inflammable arrow, which even took some of Rawan's fire on its tip.

Ram then came out from the hole created, and rapidly shot more than a hundred arrows. Rawan was changing the directions in which he was running, and unlike Ram's special Brahmastra, it didn't have the ability to hit the target on its own.

Ram's other arrows hit the special arrow, and changed its trajectory towards Rawan.

Rawan showed fear for the first time as he saw the arrow heading to his navel, where Amrit was. And the arrow was unavoidable.

The arrow hit him in the navel, and his own fire burnt his Amrit, removing his immortality.

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Rawan fell down on the ground, and in his final breaths, saw Ram's face, who didn't have a hint of arrogance even after killing him, unlike himself, who was driven by his arrogance.

"Not Brahmastra, but Ramban killed me huh."

Rawan contemplated, and closed his eyes satisfied.

"Jai Shri Ram..."

Rawan muttered in acceptance of his wrongdoings, and in his last moment, became a bhakt of Shri Ram before dying, calling the one who killed him by not just Ram, but Shri Ram.

The animated fight came to an end, and Shri Ram was finally reunited with Sita Maa, and they returned to Ayodhya.

Inside the theater, Diwali lights lighted up the whole theater, giving the people an experience of Shri Ram arriving as the lights started brightening the whole atmosphere from the tense battle scene.

The actors who were performing Ramleela arrived on the stage again, where they were welcomed with Diyas.

With Deepavali, Ramrajya has arrived.
