All those Vanaras arrived in a well
flourished Mount Prasravanam, keeping Angadha and elderly Vanaras at forefront;
they offered sincere salutation with their heads bow down to Rama, Lakshmana
and Sugriva respectively. They narrated
the distressed state of Sita who was surrounded by dreadful demons, her
persistent thoughts about her beloved husband Rama and the verdict of wicked
Ravana, to Rama. After receiving nectar
like message about Sita, Rama replied “Where is Devi Sita? How is she? Oh!
Vanaras, explain more about Vaidhehi.”
All the Vanaras urged Hanuman who was well aware of the state of affairs
to speak about Sita, shortly Hanuman, son of Lord Vayu bowed his head towards
the direction of Devi Sita with utmost reverence, and began to speak “Oh! Rama,
I have crossed the ocean of hundred Yojana wide and arrived at the southern
shore where the abode of wicked Ravana , City of Lanka located. I have resumed
my journey with an intense desire to search for Sita, daughter of King
Janaka. I have located virtuous Sita in
the abode of Ravana, she was immersed in the thought of you. I have witnessed her in the middle of
Pramadhavanam, surrounded by dreadful female demons; she was guarded by these
horrific demons, constantly threatened by them.
Oh! Vira, Devi Sita who deserved to live happily with you, is emaciated
with extreme grief. Oh! Rama, I have
witnessed her in a wretched state, with a single plait of hair, she was miserable, immersed in the thought of
you, settled on the ground, she has discolored limbs like lotus flower withered
in the winter, rejecting all the pleas of wicked Ravana and she is determined
to give up her life. Oh! Anagha, Rama, I
have gained her confidence after describing the glories of Ikshvaku dynasty. I have described the reason of my arrival in
the abode of Ravana, she was happy to hear about the alliance between you and
Sugriva, Devi Sita is virtuous and highly devoted you. Oh! Purusharshaba, I have found the
illustrious Mahabhaga Janakanandhini enriched with devotion and dedication to
you. Oh! Raghava,/Mahaprajja, she has
given me a sign of remembrance and narrated the incident of a crow took place
in the Mount Chithrakooda, and Janaki spoke the following words to me.” “Oh! Vayusootha, inform Rama that all you
have witnessed here. Kindly offer the
precious ornament, Choodamani which was well protected to Rama, while Sugriva
listening to your words. This divine
ornament was well guarded by me; describe the incident that Rama had painted my
cheek with the vermillion, when the former mark was vanished. This divine ornament has the origin from the
sea is sending to Rama, which was enthused me during my hardships, as if I am
witnessing Rama. Oh! Dhasharathmaja, I
cannot survive more than a month.” Sita
who has the power of severe austerities, emaciated with utter desolation,
retained in the Ashokavatika, keeping her eyes wide open like a dove, continued
“ Oh! Raghava, I have described the whole incident, let a bridge be constructed
across the vast ocean.” The two princes
were extremely delightful and confident after obtaining the Choodamani, in this
way Hanuman pacified Rama and Lakshmana and conveyed all those messages of Devi
Sita.
Jai Sriman Narayana !!
