Vibheeshana Gita: An Enunciation on the Chariot of Dharma

Vibheeshana Gita is found in the Lanka Kanda of Sri Ramacharitamanas. Sri Rama and Ravana were facing each other on the battlefield. Vibheeshana approaches Sri Rama with concern in his heart. During that time Bhagavan Sri Rama teaches Vibheeshana the essence of Dharma with a metaphor of a chariot. Equipped with this chariot we can fight against the various enemies of our life like anger, jealousy, pride, ignorance etc, and win over them very easily.
