Apart from this, Ravan was responsible for Marich’s death. He told Marich to either help him kidnap Sita, or he will be killed. Considering his options, Marich decided to die by Ram’s hand. And during the kidnapping, Jatayu had gone to help Sita, even he was mercilessly killed by Ravan. But Ravan was a Shiv devotee. Does being a Shiv devotee mean that his crimes of murder become nullified?
Some people claim that Ravan was a Brahmin. That Brahmins are brought up with good values. But what kind of values teach one to dishonor women like so. Why are some people look at the identity of people to judge whether they are good or bad, rather than by their actions?
Since a person is from their tribe, from their faith, they worship the same deity, it automatically makes them a good person. They don’t care if that person murdered someone or did something wrong. All they see is their identity. Think about this.
Other atrocities committed by Ravan have been written about in Uttarkand, an epilogue to Ramayan. You might think that Ramayan ends when when Ram, Sita, and Lakshman return to Ayodhya. But in some books, you’ll find another chapter Uttarkand. In this, 2 significant accusations are levied on Ram.
