Ravana king! He was a greatest king in sri lankan history. Ravana king is describes in hindu epic ramayana as the great king of sri lanka. His father was vishrava and his mother was kaikesi. Ravana was born to great sage vishrava and his wife,the daitiya princess kaikeshi. People of bisrakh village in uttar pradesh claim that the name of the village named after the birth of vishrava and ravana.



But according hela historical soures and folklore ravana was born in sri lanka where he later bacame king. Ravana had six brothers and two sisters. Ravana is describes having been as a follower of shiva, a great scholar,a capable rluer and a mastroe of veena,but someone who wish to overpowered the devas. His ten heads represent his knowledge of the six shastras and four vedas. According to ramayana ravana kidnaps sita to take the revenge from rama and lakshmana.the reason for this vengeance was the sister of ravana shurpankha's nose was cut off.


Some villages in india worship ravana because his geart power. There are some temples for ravana. People worship ravana as a god. Ravana travelled to places where he wanted to go by a aircraft named dadumonara. Historical resources says it was built by himself.


Ravana had a great power of healing. If he get wound he can heal it in such a short time period like in seconds. I think ravana is the greatest in king in sri lankan history.
