Ramayan: These weapons of Ramayana were more dangerous than bombs, rockets and missiles

Ramayan: Among the characters of Ramayana, some were heroes and some were villains. Many wars were fought during Ramayana period for Dharma and truth, in which weapons were used. Even in those times, there were weapons which were more dangerous than the bombs, rockets and missiles of modern times.

There are many references to war in texts like Mahabharat and Ramayana. Sometimes to defeat untruth, sometimes for the victory of truth, sometimes to protect religion, sometimes to protect women and sometimes to protect the clan. There were always wars. There were many characters who were blessed with immortality and were not defeated in any war.

But who can go against the laws of nature? Let us know about such major weapons of Ramayana period, which are compared to today’s powerful and destructive nuclear weapons, rockets and missiles.

Brahmastra: It is described in many places that Brahmastra was used in Ramayana period or Treta Yuga. It was such a weapon that could be used only once in life. Brahmastra is compared to today’s Brahmos missile and nuclear bomb. In Treta Yuga, this weapon was with Vibhishana and Lakshman. Whereas in Dwapar or Mahabharata, Brahmastra was with Acharya Dronacharya, Ashwatthama, Krishna, Kuvalashva, Karna and Arjun.

Gandharva clothing: Gandharvastra was used to kill 14 thousand demons. Only Ravana knew about Gandharvastra. But Lord Rama neutralized this weapon. Due to this weapon, the demons started seeing only Ram everywhere and they started killing each other.

Prasavana: This weapon was used by Lord Rama to kill Ravana. Because Ravana had the boon of immortality and he could not die due to Amrit. Ramji used the Prasvana weapon to uproot this Amrit so that Ravana could be killed. Vibhishan had instructed Ramji about this weapon.

Manavastra: Lord Ram uses the Manavastra weapon on Marich. Let us tell you that Marich had taken the form of a golden deer and helped Ravana in kidnapping Sita.
