This festival was started by Emperor Ashoka.\nBecame the king of all India. From one side there was a state refuge. But\nChaitra, the king of Kalinga, did not find refuge to the king of Ashoka.\nTherefore, there was a war between them.

\nAt the\nsame time, Bhante Negrodh was leaving for the Charike. At that time, Ashoka says\nthe Bhantes, \u201dBless me, I am now Emperor\u201d. But the Bhante’s made Ashoka feel\nguilty for the sense of sin. How could an emperor, who was the cause of millions of people\nkiller? Made such a question. You have committed many life-threatening sins.\nThere is no public interest in it, it is brutal cruelty. Who will call you\nEmperor? Bhante Negrodh advised the king on the principle (Tathagatha) of\nfriendship, emotion and non-violence. Ashoka agree it and He laid down his sword and vowed that I\nwould not take up arms. \u201dI will become a Dharmsheel\u201d,\u201dI really won today\u201d,\nAshok said to Bhante and that day would be the Shudhya<\/strong> (pure) Dashami<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nEmperor Ashoka made a declaration\ntitled Dussehra with his royal seal and urged the people of his kingdom to\ncelebrate the Ashoka Vijayadasami\nDussehra<\/strong> i.e Dussehra festival<\/strong>. He\nprovided royal patronage in the Buddhist Dhamma. Many caves, columns erected. His\ndaughter Sanghmitra and son Mahendra were made monks and sent to Sri Lanka for\npropagation and expansion of Buddhism. He spend his money for Dhamma(charity).\nThey built 84000 columns.

Wherever they went, they built columns, stupas, and Vihars.        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Violence, Animals will not be killed in religious\nplaces and programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Theft, fraud, robbery, etc. Not to (forbear)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nSuch was the declaration of ten articles. And this is called dussehra<\/strong>. His second word became conservative. By honoring Emperor Ashoka’s Dharma work and by symbolizing this day. Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar decided to liberate the untouchables, Dalits from the old tradition, caste, superstition. For this, he decided that Dussehra was a day and, on October 14, 1956, against the Hindu religious tradition, he was freed from inhuman, mental slavery. By initiating one million people at a time, <\/em><\/strong>he made Dhammakranti<\/strong> like that\u00a0 na bhooto na bhavishyati. On the same day that Emperor Ashoka turned the Dhammachakra, Babasaheb accelerated the Dhammachakra. This is a unique, almost never-to-be-forgotten phenomenon with the eyes of Buddhists. Therefore, every year in Ashwani Pure Dasami is celebrated as Dharma chakra launch day. This festival is the last revolution in Babasaheb’s life. This revolution does not break in the world. Therefore, Ashoka Vijayadasami – Dussehra<\/strong> is a great festival of Buddhists. It\u2019s the red-letter day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
