Ahiravan

Ahiravan

In the Ramayana Ahiravan [Brother of Ravana] was a demon who secretly carried away Rama and his brother Lakshmana to the nether-world, and consulted his friends and decided to sacrifice the life of the two divine brothers at the altar of his chosen deity with due ceremony. But Hanuman saved their life by killing Ahiravan and his army [ [http://www.telusplanet.net/public/swamiji/ashramprayerbk/sankatamochana.htm SankaTamochana ] ] .
