Soorpanakha meets Ravana

After Kharas assasination,Soorpanakha went to Lanka.Ravana was in full swing.He was enjoying and fully fledged with royal pleasures.Ravan did never care for devathas.Once ,he went to Bhogavathi,a cityand defeated Vasuki .He brought Thakshakas wjfe.Another time,he  went to Kaailash and defeated Kubera and brought his pushapaka viamnam.He even destroyed Kuberas chaithraradhavanam,pushkarini,Indras nandanavanam.He was very ferocious.He had strength to stop even Sun and Moon from taking their natural paths.He would spoil yagnas and yagas.He was an enemy of sages.He did thapa and prayed Brahma by cutting his own heads and keeping them before Brahma.There were marks of Vajrayudham and Iravathams tusks on his chest.He had halo around him.He sat in his golden throne.His ministers were attending on him.

Soorpanakha started to talk to her brother in a fearless manner.She was belittling him.She was not happy with his behaviour.He was fully drowned in lustful pleasures.He was unable to realise the danger he was in.hE WAS AS GOOD AS BURIAL GROUND.No one would respect such a king.A king who is not alert is bound to lose kingdom in no time.He was gloomy like a mountain immersed in a sea.He was inconsistent.It seemed he did not have any agents to tell him about things that happen around  him and in his country.He was a fool.Actually kings would be so alert that he has verything in order.He would know what is happening in distant countries aroung his kingdom also.But Ravana was unable to find out what was happening in his country itself.It seems his ministers were also waste fellows.

If he did not already know,she would tell her brother now.Rama killed Khara,dooshana and fourteen thousand demons single handedly.He protected sages in Dandakaaranya by killing all the demons there.While Ravana was indulging himself in lust At Lanka.If a king was ruthless,dull,arrogant,then in times of danger ,his own people would leave him or kill him.

King should be alert and see that every thing was in order.Otherwise he was sure to lose his kingdom.Anything like dry wood,soil  or meaningless things would even have such importance at one time or another,but a king who is deprived of his kingdom does not value even a dime.
It seems that Ravana did not have a single trait of a succesfull king.So it was sure that in no time he is sure to lose his kingdom.
Ravana heard Soorpanakhas words.hE LOST HIS TEMPER.hE STARTED ASKING HER QUESTIONS.Who was Rama?What were his main traits?Why did he come to Dandakaaranya?Did he really kill Khara and Dooshana?
