LAKSHMANA

-Lakshmana (Sanskrit: ललललललल, IAST: lakṣmaṇa, lit. he who has the


signs of fortune), also spelled as Laxman or Lakhan, is the younger
brother of Rama and his aide in the Hindu epic, the Ramayana.
-This is how Urmila slept night and day during the 14 year exile while
Lakshmana could serve Ram and Sita attentively. Ravana's son
Meghnath was very mighty and powerful. In fact, nobody could ever
defeat him in any sort of war but only a man who had not slept for years.
-Lakshmana is the twin brother of Shatrughna. According to the Valmiki
Ramayana, Lakshmana is one quarter (25%) component of the
manifestation of Lord Vishnu and is considered to be an avatar
of Vishnu.[2] However some puranas of later times regard him as the avatar
of Shesha, the thousand-headed serpent associated with Lord Vishnu.
