(11) Nārada’s curse was also one of the causes for Rāvaṇa’s death. Rāvaṇa once requested Nārada to explain to him the meaning of ‘Om’, and when Nārada refused to oblige him he threatened to cut Nārada’s tongue. Nārada in return cursed that the ten heads of Rāvaṇa would be cut. (Kamba Rāmāyaṇa, Yuddha Kāṇḍa).
