Dussehra: Devotional Rings, Pendants and Frames for Vijayadashami

Dussehra significance and tradition

Dussehra, or Vijayadashami, follows the nine nights of Navratri. In many parts of India it marks Lord Rama's victory over Ravana, and effigies of Ravana are burned. In others it marks Goddess Durga's victory over Mahishasura.

Customs vary by region and family. Some households hold a puja at home, and others visit a temple. Many families also light a diya and say prayers. Follow your own tradition.
