Mahatma Ravan (महात्मा रावण) is a Marathi book written by Dr. V.B. Kolate. It was published by Sugava Prakashan in 2011. The book is a critical analysis of the character of Ravana in the Hindu epic Ramayana. Kolate argues that Ravana was a misunderstood hero who was actually a great devotee of Lord Shiva. He was also a powerful and wise ruler who was responsible for the development of the kingdom of Lanka. Kolate also debunks the myths about Ravana's cruelty and his abduction of Sita. The book is a well-researched and well-argued work that provides a new perspective on the character of Ravana. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the Ramayana or in Indian history and culture. Here are some of the key points that Kolate makes in his book: * Ravana was a great devotee of Lord Shiva. He was always willing to help others and was always ready to fight for what he believed in. * Ravana was a powerful and wise ruler. He was responsible for the development of the kingdom of Lanka and for the prosperity of its people. * Ravana's abduction of Sita was not motivated by lust. He actually wanted to protect her from the evil intentions of Rama. * Ravana was a victim of circumstances. He was born in a family of rakshasas and was therefore forced to fight against the gods. Kolate's book is a valuable contribution to the understanding of the Ramayana and of Indian history and culture. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in these subjects.
