In Ramayana, Raavan paid the price for not listening to Mandodari, even in Kalyug, husbands are making the same mistake


The bond of marriage is a very beautiful relationship, two people start a new life by taking vows to live and die with each other. Therefore, along with respecting each other, we are also taught to respect each other’s thoughts and understanding. There should be absolutely no place for ego and arrogance in a relationship. Ravana did not understand this at all.

In Ramayana, King Dasharath listened to Kaikeyi, even though Lord Rama had to be sent to exile, Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram also listened to Sita and went after the deer, but Ravana, out of arrogance, made fun of Mandodari’s advice. That is why he/she has to suffer till date, the same mistake is made by husbands of today, who should understand the reason behind their wife’s words. That is why we are talking about Ravana’s mistake and the lesson learnt from it.

Ravana did not stop at Mandodari’s behest

When Ravana kidnapped Sita and brought her to Lanka, Mandodari tried to stop him/her from doing so. She explained that kidnapping a woman of another person like this was against religion. Despite this, Ravana did not listen and took Mandodari’s words lightly. The result was that Hanuman came to Lanka as Ram’s messenger. he/she not only found Sita but also burnt the golden Lanka.

Raavan was punished for not following his/her advice

After Hanuman returned from Lanka, Mandodari put her spies all over Lanka. Then the people of Lanka started talking about different things. Everyone was saying that the one whose messenger came and killed so many demons alone, burnt Lanka. If he/she himself comes here to fight, then who will save us.

On knowing the fear of the people, she again explained to Ravana that it is not right to be hostile towards Ram, it is good for Lanka to return Sita. But Ravana did not pay any attention to Mandodari’s words, out of arrogance he/she said that you are afraid before a good deed is done. In the end Ravana was killed after fighting with Ram.

Even in Kaliyug, no matter how much the times have changed, even today the wife cares a lot for her husband. Along with trying to get rid of bad habits, she is also engaged in making life happy. But in a male dominated country, the husband does not accept to listen to the woman, he/she does not understand that almost all things are for the good of both.

The way Raavan ignored Mandodari’s advice, this mistake is indeed a lesson for all husbands. No matter how powerful and intelligent you are, giving importance to your life partner’s words can save you from many problems. Every person should include the advice of their life partner in the important decisions of their life. Decisions taken one-sidedly or out of stubbornness always lead to ruin.

Just like our parents stop us from doing certain things for our own good, similarly if the wife is refusing to do something, there are many reasons behind it. Therefore, the husband should understand the reason for the refusal as well as her fear. Because a wife’s fear is not for anyone else but she is afraid for you.
