Dusshera or Vijaya Dashami

Dussehra (also known as Vijaya Dashami) is a prominent Hindu festival observed on the tenth day of Navaratri. It commemorates the triumph of Lord Rama over the demon king Ravana, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. The festivities commonly include the ritualistic burning of effigies representing Ravana, reminding people of the need to conquer their internal enemies, such as lust and other vices, and embrace virtues in their lives. Dussehra holds a profound spiritual significance, inspiring devotees to seek righteousness and dispel negativity from their hearts, thus fostering a path of virtue and inner transformation.
