Everyone knows the story of the end of Ravana, Meghnad and Kumbhakarna in Ramayana, but one question still arouses curiosity, what happened to Ravana’s sister Shurpanakha after his death?

Did she stay in Lanka, or is her end also hidden in some unknown story? Before knowing the answer to this question, it is necessary to mention a mysterious character, Prabha herself.

Swayam Prabha: The Elf of the Elusive Garden

According to legends, Prabha herself was a yogini with extraordinary powers, who resided in a divine illusionary grove. His life was full of penance, meditation and compassion. It is said that Shurpanakha took advantage of this compassion. Through deceit and deceit he himself made Prabha his captive.

Through a mysterious tantric experiment, she took away their powers and became the mistress of that illusory garden. Burning with power and vengeance, Surpanakha used the energy of that garden to take revenge on Ram and Lakshman.

Arrival of Hanuman and end of illusion

When Hanuman, Angad and Jamwant set out towards the south in search of Mother Sita, destiny took them to the same elusive garden. There he himself freed Prabha from bondage. As soon as she became free, Prabha herself captured Shurpanakha in the same illusion. It is mentioned that he was not killed, but was imprisoned as a punishment, this decision was taken on the advice of Hanuman. Prabha herself led Hanuman and his group to the seashore through an illusory route, saving them several weeks of travel.

Got a punishment that was worse than death

It is narrated in the stories that Prabha herself cursed Shurpanakha, “You will see with your own eyes the destruction of your brother by Hanuman and then you will see the union of Ram with his life partner Princess Sita.” This punishment was not only physical but also full of mental pain, seeing the destruction of one’s clan and the victory of religion.

what happened in the end?

According to some stories, many years after the Lankan War, Shurpanakha and her half-sister Kumbini were found dead on the beach. Although this incident is not described equally in all the texts, yet this story is prevalent in folklore. Thus, the story of Shurpanakha is not just one of vengeance, but also of karma and consequences where abuse of power ultimately leads to destruction.
