Ravan Raja Rakshsancha [paperback] Sharad Tandale [Jan 01, 2018] …
In 'Ravan Raja Rakshsancha,' Sharad Tandale weaves a riveting tale that subverts the conventional depiction of Ravana, the sovereign of Lanka, as delineated in the illustrious Ramayana. This Marathi masterpiece plunges deep into the essence of a formidable, scholarly, and pious monarch who has long been unjustly labeled a malefactor. Tandale embarks on a quest to unveil Ravana’s pivotal contributions to the realms of literature, music, and scientific thought, showcasing his illustrious works such as the Ravana Samhita, Kumara Tantra, and the revered Shiva Tandava Stotra. The author provocatively interrogates the rationale behind casting such an astute polymath in the role of a nemesis. This intellectually stimulating narrative delves into the intricate psyche of the formidable Rakshasa ruler who bested deities, unified disparate tribes, and metamorphosed Lanka into a thriving realm of splendor. 'Ravan Raja Rakshsancha' extends an intricate lens on a multifaceted historical persona, urging audiences to reassess their perceptions of one of Indian mythology’s most notorious figures.
