to
write
this
epic
4.
Ramcharitmanas,
says
that
the
war
between
asuras
and
vanaras
lasted
for
87
days,
and
the
Ram-Ravan
war
went
on
for
32

setu
took

Lord
Ram
's
stay
in
Lanka
was

days,

days.
During
Sitas
stay
in
Ashoka
Vana,
It
was
Sarama,
Vibheeshanas
wife
who
took
care
of
her.
5.
Ravana
killed
Vidyujjihva
who
was
the
husband
of
his
sister
Shurpanakha
She
later
cursed
Ravana
that
he
should
die
because
of
a
woman.
6.
Kuber,
just
like
Ravana,
was
also
a
devotee
of
Shiva;
Shiva
gave
him
Lanka,
which
Ravana
confiscated
from
Kuber.
Ravana
during
one
of
his
tapasyas,
severed
his
own
head
in
the
yagnya
and
presented
it
to
Lord
Shiva.
Pleased
with
his
devotion,
Lord
Shiva
gave
him
10
heads
and
called
him
Dashanan
(the
one
with
ten
heads).
7.
As
per
Ramcharitmanas,
Rama
had
an
elder
sister
by
name
Shanta
who
was
an
adopted
daughter
of
Dasharatha.
8.
Meghnad,
Ravan's
Son,
was
born
with
a
boon
that
he
should
be
killed
only
at
the
hands
of
the
person
who
had
not
slept
for
14
years.
Lakshman
fit
this
bill
perfectly
and
hence
was
able
to
kill
him.
9.
Tulsidas
has
hinted
in
many
works
that
he
had
a
vision
of
Hanuman,
Rama
Lakshmana
and
Shiva
Parvathi.
After
seeing
Hanuman,
he
also
had
a
vision
of
Rama
whom
unfortunately
Tulsi
Das
was
not
able
to
recognise.
