Ravana after listening to the awful
news of death of five chief army personnel and huge army of mighty warriors
looked at his son Akshakumara who was seated before him. The mighty prince Akshakumara wielded with
golden bow immediately rose from the seat like a blazing fire rose from the
sacrificial fire at the time offering oblation, initiated by prominent Brahmins. Akshakumara, chief of the demons who has the splendor
of rising son, with protective armor made of gold, mounted on a grand gem
studded chariot decked in gold, banners and flags, drawn by excellent eight
horses, that was obtained after severe penances and has the capability to
travel at the speed of his mind and preceded to the war field. This grand chariot is unconquerable by the
celestials or demons, it can move without any hindrance, it has the brilliance
of Lord Aditya, it can move all over the sky, it was well constructed with
armaments. Askhakumara who has the
prowess equivalent to celestials mounted on the grand chariot had the
resemblances of Lord Aditya and Lord Chandra.
The Earth and sky was resounded with noises of mighty warriors, horses,
elephants and chariots approached the valorous Hanuman who was settled on the
arch way. Akshakumara looked at Hanuman
who is enthusiastic to destroy his opponents like blazing fire, with high
esteem. The mighty prince after
witnessing the prowess of Hanuman, began to increase his size and stood before
him like the rising sun unfreezing the clouds,
he was aware of the might of Hanuman which is unconquerable and steadfast,
eventually Ashakumara regained serenity of mind, released three arrows against
Hanuman who was staring at Ashakumara who was adorned in various jewels on his
body, with great enthusiasm. Further, Akshakumara approached Hanuman with great
energy; celestials witnessed the unrivaled battle between the two in wonder. The Earth quivered, Lord Aditya and Lord Vayu
forgot to perform their task, mountain shuddered, and a great commotion rose
from the ocean, hue and cries reverberated on the sky. Akshakumara, who is well focused and aware of
his target, hurled three arrows which has the resemblance of venomous serpent
aimed at the head of Hanuman whose eyes were bathed in blood, resembled like
Lord Aditya. Hanuman, excellent counselor
in the assembly of Sugriva, was rejoiced and his inclination to fight against
Akshakumara grew rapidly after seeing the usage of marvelous weapons by him. Hanuman, who has great prowess, has the
resemblance of Lord Aditya on Mount Mandhara, exasperatingly released blaze
from his eyes; eventually it burnt Akshakumara and his mighty warriors along with
their auxiliaries. Akshakumara, who has spontaneous
valor, released numerous arrows on Hanuman like a downpour on the colossal
mountain, Hanuman roared with joy appreciating the vitality of Akshakumara and
move effortlessly like a cloud in the sky.
Akshakumara, arrogant of his valor, eyes were redden with anger in a
childish manner approached Hanuman who is unconquerable in the battle, like an
elephant approaching well covered with heap of straws. Akshakumara, foremost among the demons,
excellent chariot fighter, discharged numerous arrows upon Hanuman who assumed
a giant form stretching out his arms and legs and took a giant leap on the
sky. Akshakumara continued to shower
arrows upon Hanuman like hailstorm on a mountain, Hanuman who is unassailable,
has the speed of swiftness of mind, thoughtfully moved through the arrows of
Akshakumara. Hanuman was cherished the
valor and capabilities of Akshakumara, who packed the sky with excellent arrows.
The mighty Hanuman who is well aware of
how to act on atypical circumstances, let out a loud roar at the piercing on
his chest by Akshakumara, that was the reflection of prowess of his opponent in
the battle. Hanuman who is well capable
to study the swiftness and course of action of opponent, excellent in
determining the course of his action required for the appropriate moment, became
considerate. “ The mighty prince Akshakumara has the
brilliance of Lord Aditya, excellent in war tactics and matured youth,
intelligent and profound knowledge of armaments, he is well composed and highly
tolerant in battle field, he is adored by the sages, Nagas, and Yakshas for his
virtues, therefore my intellect does not allow to kill him. He is fearless and has the courage to look
straight into my eyes, he is very confident with his prowess and enthusiasm. His swift movements create trepidations in
the mind of celestials and demons. If I
spare him, he will definitely overthrow me, his prowess is getting amplified in
the battle, and it’s not sensible to ignore a blistering fire, I have to kill
him right now.” The illustrious Hanuman,
son of Lord Vayu encountered Akshakumara
with a powerful blow of his palm; eight horses were fleeing into different
directions, grand chariot with its marvelous interior decorations was smashed
into pieces, eventually the horses fallen dead on the Earth. At last, Akshakumara discarded his grand
chariot, marvelous bow and arrow, with the immense Yogic powers obtained from
severe austerities, he proceeded to heaven. Hanuman, who has the swiftness equal to wind
and prowess like his father Lord Vayu, followed Akshakumara in the sky, like
Garuda and grasped his feet. The
excellent among Vanara, Hanuman hold Akshakumara like an eagle holds its prey venomous
serpent, hurled down on the ground, every part of his limbs were shattered, and
soaked in blood, Akshakumara was killed instantly. In this way, Hanuman created huge trepidation in Ravana. The Maharishis, Sages, Pannagas,
Suras, celestials, Yakshas and Lord Indra, Lord of celestials assembled were witnessed
the destruction of Akshakumara by Hanuman in great astonishment. Hanuman after killing Akshakumara, possessing
the luster equivalent to Jayantha, son of Lord Indra, Lord of celestials with
the eyes resembling to blood, settled on the arch way, like Lord Yama, Lord of
death waiting for the precise moment for the life of mortals.
