There was a few hours left for
early dawn, Hanuman meticulously observed the entire garden which has abundance
of flower, suddenly he could listen to the Vedic chants of Brahma Rakshasas who
are well versed in Veda and scriptures and performance of fire sacrifices. The King of demons, mighty Ravana who has
powerful arms, woke up with flower garlands around neck, listening to the
pleasing divine music instruments at the early hours of dawn. Instantly Ravana who was tortured by the
cupid arrows of Lord Manmatha, thought of Sita and he could not control the
desire for her. He attired in grand
royal garments and decked in precious ornaments, prepared to leave to Ashokavatika,
the glorious garden full of flowers and fruits, marvelous lakes resounded with
the chirping of birds. Ravana entered into the magnificent garden with
golden portico, embellished with various precious ornaments, attractive animals
and deer and the ground packed with flowers and fruits. He was followed by hundreds of women and men,
like Lord Indra followed by celestial Gandharvas and Apsaras, some of the women
were carrying golden lamps, marvelous platter and fans made of Palmyra leaves,
some of the women were holding beautiful golden vessels of water, luxurious
pillows etc… one of the women who was standing right next to Ravana was holding
a gem studded vessel full of intoxicated drinks, another woman was holding an majestic
umbrella of golden handle and it has the radiance of full moon. The best women of Ravana was following him
with sleepy eyes, like the cloud following the lightening, they had displaced necklaces
and armlets on their bodies, perspiring faces with the fragrance of sandal
paste, disheveled hair with flower garlands, murmuring due to the state of
intoxication and sleepiness and they sincerely followed their husband out of
love and respect, the mighty Ravana who was completely surrendered to lust,
dull witted shone in the middle of those women. Soon Hanuman, son of Lord Vayu could hear
the sounds of waist bands and anklets of these beautiful women; he saw Ravana
of matchless prowess and might at the entrance of that area, he was completely soaked in the fragrant oil,
brilliantly shone at the light of the golden lamps in all directions, he was
tormented by lust, in a state of intoxication, his eyes were red and wide like
the passionate Lord Manmatha with his bow at a distance, he was mischievously rectifying
the grand upper garment and armlets, Hanuman who was under the cluster of
leaves thoroughly observed Ravana who was marching towards the tree. Hanuman, best among the Vanaras observed the unrivaled
beauty of the best women of Ravana and the King of demons who is son of
Vishravass, has boundless glory and fame was in a state of intoxication shone
like Lord Chandra among the cluster of stars in the middle of gorgeous women,
he was embellished in grand attire and precious ornaments, entered the garden
resounded with birds and animals. The
best among the Vanara, son of Lord Vayu, Hanuman guessed that it must be Ravana
who has powerful arms and instantly concealed himself under the cluster of
leaves. Ravana with intense desire
approached Sita who has beautiful appearances, long hair and stunning physique.
Jai Sriman Narayana !!
