Who was the brother of Ravan who was against his bad deeds but fought for Ravan with Lord Sh. Ram?

Answer 1

Kumbhakarna (Sanskrit: कुम्भकर्ण, kumbhakarNa), in theHindu epic Ramayana, was a Rakshasa and brother of Ravana. He was said to be 420,000 metres tall. His size could have made him invincible, but when he asked for a boon from Brahma, his tongue was tied by a goddess, and all he managed to say was that he wanted to sleep (Some sources say that this not a boon but a curse by Brahma). His request was granted, as Kumbhakarna slept for six months at a time and woke for only one day before returning to sleep. However, when he woke up, he ate everything in the vicinity including men.

During the war, Ravana went into battle and was humiliated by Rama and his army. He decided he needed the help of his brother Kumbhakarna, who was awakened with great difficulty. When he was informed of the circumstances of Ravana's war with Rama, he tried to convince Ravana that what he was doing was wrong. However, he chose to fight in the battle due to his loyalty to his brother. After becoming drunk, Kumbhakarna went into battle. He devastated Rama's army, heavily injured Hanumana, and knocks out Sugriva and takes him as a prisoner. When Sugriva wakes up in Lanka, he rips off Kumbhakarna's ears and nose and flies back to Rama. Kumbhakarna again runs off to battle bloody and berserk and kills Rakshasas and Vanaras indiscriminately. Rama eventually cuts him to pieces. When Ravana hears of his brother's death he faints and proclaims that he is truly doomed.

Kumbhakarna had two sons, Kumbha and Nikumbha, who too fought in the war against Rama and were killed.

Rama went with his army to the shore of the Indian ocean at the southern most tip of India and waited for the see god (Samudra Rajan) to appear and offer his help. But the ocean remained unmoved so after three days Rama stood up and put Brahmastra in his bow and was about to invoke the deity which will suck up the ocean and leave it bare to cross over. Samudra rajan seeing the danger came out and prostrated to Rama and offered his help by the way of holding the stone bridge to be build accross to Lanka. Rama excused him and commanded the engineers Nal and neela to start building the bridge. The vanaras (monkeys ) brough huge boulders and dropped it into the ocean Nala and Neela wrote the name of Rama on them. The stones were floating in alignement and soon the bridge was ready.Rama crossed over with his army to Lanka. authority Srmad valmiki and all other ramayanas. A Bridge is called "Sethu" in sanskrit. Even today the devout Hindus go to the edge of the place from wher the Bridge was commenced and worship there.

Answer 5

Vibishana

Vibhishana (Sanskrit: विभीषण, vibhīshaṇa) is a Hindu mythological character in the epic Ramayana. He is portrayed as the brother of Ravana. He was of a noble character and advised Ravana, who kidnapped and abducted Sita, to return her to Rama. When his brother did not listen to his adivce, Vibishana went over to Rama 's side and joined him. Later, when Rama defeated Ravana, Rama coronated Vibishana as the king of Lanka.

Vibhishana was an individual, who possessed Sattvic Guna. Since his early childhood, he spent all his time meditating on the name of the Lord. When Vibhishana was in penance, Brahma appeared and offered him any boon he wanted. Vibhishana, in turn, said that the only thing he wanted was to have his mind fixed at the lotus feet of the Lord. He prayed that he be given the strength by which he will always be at the feet of the Lord. Because Vibhishana had a sattvic mind and a sattvic heart, he could reach Rama. Vibhishana gave up all his wealth and family, joining Rama.

Vibhishana is considered to be an example of full self-surrender. Ravana had a gang of courtiers and ministers who catered to his whims and flattered his vanity. While each of them advised him to challenge Rama in open war and keep Sita for himself, only Vibhishana, his brother, chastised him for his wilfulness and lust and urged him to save himself, his kingdom and his kith and kin by restoring Sita unharmed to her Lord. When Vibhishana went over to Rama, Rama knew that he had a pure heart that could not survive in the poisonous atmosphere of Lanka. So He took care of him and saved him.

Vibishana sacrificed all his wealth and belongings in front of the Grace of Ramachandra.

Vibhishan is the youngest son of Sage Vishrava, who is the son of Sage Pulatsya, one of the Heavenly Guardians. He is therefore, the younger brother of the Lord of Lanka, Ravana and King of Sleep, Kumbakarna.

Vibhishan was one of the extraordinary people among the Rakshasas. Even though he was born in a demon race, he was alert and considered himself a Brahmin, since his father was one. He was very pious and when Lord Brahma was going to grant him a boon, he asked that he gets the darshan of Lord Vishnu and always stay on the path of Dharma.

Due to his differences with Ravana and since he was against the act of kidnapping Sita, Ravana exiled him from Lanka and by the orders of his mother, Kaikasi, he went to serve Shri Rama. Because of this act, Lord Rama, anointed him the Lord of Lanka after Ravana's death.

In the Lanka War, Vibhishan helped Shri Rama a lot and divulged many important secrets which were unknown to anyone else except someone from Lanka. He was also the person who gave the secret path to the temple of Mata Nikumbala, the family deity of the Pulatsya Clan.

Even though Vibhishan was from a demon clan, he, is used as a symbol to represent devotion to Shri Rama, showing the fact, that the Lord does not distinguish between his followers, like Prahlada with the Narasimha incarnation. When he attained the position of the King of Lanka, he turned his subjects from the path of evil to the path of good and Dharma. His wife, Queen Sarma also aided him in this effort.
