The Hindu belief that this story best illustrates is the belief in?

The differences and similarities between human and divine are a major theme in the Ramayana. Rama himself is the incarnation of a god, but much of his goodness is the result of his own personal choices rather than this divine heritage. Rama has been born into the world because an enormously powerful rakshasa, Ravana, cannot be killed by any deity or supernatural creature; the gods themselves are unable to defeat them. In some ways, some human beings and vanaras (magical monkeys) are superior to the gods in their virtuous conduct. However, the gods still have the power to offer boons to mortals, such as weapons and invincibility.
