Dying Ravana had told Lakshman 3 things that changed his fate, you should also know:

News India Live, Digital Desk: In Hindu religion, every character of Ramayana definitely teaches us some lesson. Ravana, who is often seen as a symbol of evil, was not only a powerful king but also a great scholar, a scholar and a great devotee of Shiva. When Ravana was counting his last breaths during the war between Lord Ram and Ravana, Ram had sent his younger brother Lakshman to him to seek knowledge. This is such an incident, which probably surprises everyone that one can learn a lesson even from an enemy!

Dying Ravana gave 3 invaluable knowledge to Lakshman:

1. Never postpone auspicious work, do inauspicious work immediately:
   Ravana said to Lakshman, “Lakshman, auspicious works should always be completed as soon as possible, they should never be postponed. Whereas, if any bad or inauspicious work has to be done, then it should be postponed as much as possible.” Giving his own example, Ravana said that he did the auspicious task of recognizing Lord Rama and seeking his refuge late, and did the inauspicious task of taking enmity with Lord Rama immediately, the result of which was that today he is lying on his death bed. This wisdom teaches that delaying a good work is always harmful.
2. Don’t tell your secrets to anyone:
   Ravana’s second wisdom was, “Never tell any secret of your life to your enemy or even to people whom you do not completely trust.” Ravana said that the secret of his death was known to Vibhishana (his own brother), who told it to Lord Rama and due to this he met his end. This lesson means that one should hide one’s weakest points or strategies from anyone who might abuse them.
3. Never underestimate anyone, even the enemy:
   Ravana said, “Never underestimate anyone, especially your enemy.” He admitted that he thought of Shri Ram as just a prince and an ordinary human being, whereas he was the incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He said that this was his biggest mistake. This wisdom tells us that one should leave aside the ego and take every person or situation seriously, no matter how small or ordinary it may seem.

These last words of Ravana show that no matter how bad someone is, there can still be pearls of wisdom hidden in him. Lord Rama sending Lakshmana to Ravana was not just a moral lesson, but it teaches us that we should always seek knowledge, no matter where it comes from. These lessons are as relevant today as they were thousands of years ago.
