Hanuman offered salutation to
Sita who was settled under the Shimshupa tree; he delightfully uttered “Happy to
see you safe and sound.” Subsequently He
prepared to leave; Sita affectionately spoke to Hanuman “Oh!
Paraviragna/destroyer of enemies, you are enthusiastic and you have possessed
immense prowess and capable to complete the task single handedly. It would be appropriate for Rama to release
me after annihilating his enemies and destroy the city of Lanka with his
powerful arrows. Therefore, you work for
the virtuous Rama who is valiant in battle to exhibit his prowess.” Hanuman after listening to the meaningful
words, replied “ Kakustha/Rama, who is accompanied by multitudes of Vanaras and
bears will arrive shortly and defeat his
enemies in the battle, and release you from grief.” Hanuman prepared to leave,
offered salutation to Sita with utmost reverence. Hanuman, foremost among the Vanara, with an
intense desire to meet his Lord ascended on the prominent Mount Arishta the highest
peak close to the clouds, which was covered in lush green, dwelling place of
elephants with red spot on their skin, flourished land of rich minerals gave
out excellent appearance in the sun light that has the resemblance of the precision
of reciting scriptures like the stream of water, in a loud voice. It seemed quivering with the sounds of bamboo
trees by the breeze, it was hissing like venomous serpents, it has various
peaks, caves and enriched with the trees of Salavruksham, Palmyrah, Karna and
Bamboo. The mountain was embellished
with various creepers and flowers; it was the dwelling place of great sages,
Yakshas, Gandharvas, Kinnaras, Nagas and deities. It has magnificent caves which are the
dwelling places of wild animals like lions and tigers; it is enriched with
fruits and tubers. Hanuman, son of Lord
Vayu happily ascended on the peak with a desire to meet Rama, immediately the
mountain was crushed under his feet and fallen in to different places, Hanuman
with great vigor enlarged his body and preceded from southern to northern
direction in the pace of wind, saw the vast ocean inhibited with deadly aquatic
creatures, the moment Hanuman pressed the mountain with its living creatures
and woods crushed underneath the Earth, huge trees were thrashed with his
thighs and it fell down with a thunderous noise, lions of great prowess were
let out boisterous cries, females of Vidhyadharas rushed out of the peak with
misplaced ornaments on their bodies, giant sized venomous serpents were crushed
to death, Kinnaras, Yakshas, Gandharvas, Nagas and Vidhyadharas were abruptly
left their dwelling places and moved to sky, eventually the magnificent
mountain with a width of ten Yojana and the height of thirty Yojanas, and its peaks, woods were crushed underneath
the Earth. Hanuman took a giant leap to
the sky, crossing the vast ocean crammed with its huge waves.
Jai Anjaneya !!
