King Rawana of Sri Lanka

King Rawana of Sri Lanka Rawana is a fascinating character from the Hindu mythology of Ramayana (topics - pictures). He is the king of prosperous island of Sri Lanka, a dedicated devotee of Lord Shiva (article - pictures), and a man of great character. We see that Rawana is demonized in much of the Indian literature to glorify Ramachandra (an avatar of Lord Vishnu), but many South Indian poets have taken a more objective view in depicting Rawana. He is depicted as brother to the ever sleepy Kumbhakarna, the diplomat Vibhishana who never dies (see Men Who Do Not Die),and the humiliated Shurpanakhi. He is a faithful husband to Mandodari, and a proud father to Meghadoot. This week, we unweil a potpourri of pictures of Rawana. Some show him in nude, some show him with twenty hands, and some yet show him with just one head. Work-Safe-URLs I learnt a new word today - Work-Safe-URL. Obviously it refers to the address of a webpage that can be surfed to from your place of work without getting into trouble. IMO, all of the links on this website/weblog are work-safe; even those that feature naked bodies and contain explicitly erotic language! Beacuse ours is an educational website. Remember?
