3. Kakshi Padalam  Chapter on seeing Sita.
(Hanuman     enters at last   that garden and sees Sita there and hides  on a tree .AT that time Trijata was  consoling Sita who was  crying and telling her about her    dreams which indicated the coming an emissary from  Rama, Her  getting freedom    and Vibheeshana becoming the king  .At that  time Ravana   accompanied  by a bevy  of ladies    comes  three. He requests Sita to be merciful and accept  his love. She shouts at him   and assures   him that Rama will kill him . Ravana gets angry   and wants to kill her  but  later decides not to.  He gives Sita   a time of two months   and entrusts the Rakshasis to threaten her. Trijata consoles Sita.     In Valmiki Ramayana Trijata   tells about her dream to the Rakshasis who were threatening Sita.  A  lady who is   the wife of Ravana dissuades him from killing her.)

5069.  “If I reach that garden  in which pretty    flowers    stand erect and search for Lady Sita,My sorrow will vanish   and if   I am not  able to see her there  then,I would destroy the city of Lanka   and then I would die  ,And I do not think there   is any other   thing left for me to do”  Thought Hanuman.

5070. And afterwards   the emissary of Rama   went inside   that garden ,And at that time   the devas  showered   flowers   on him   and became happy.Thinking  now  “Hanuman would tell    the present condition of  SitaWho has hair like darkness who   has   been imprisoned   by Ravana  who holds   the sword .”

5071. Like   the medicinal  herb which grew near a rock   and has not even seen a drop of water ,Sita    who has been tortured by the  cruel, Rakshasis   with thick hips  ,Had lost both  her mental and physical health   and looked    greatly faded,And all her body was     thin like   her   thin waist  and  was   there in that  garden.

5072. That   Sita   who had   stopped   shutting   eyes   for sleep   and opening eyes,When she is awake  was like a lamp   placed before the Sun  and  had lost her luster,And   she who had the  look of peacock , had  voice of Koel ,  was like a young female   deer,Caught   in the   cruel  assembly of tigers  ,  who all had    sharp teeth.

5073. Falling on the ground  , sobbing  ,  getting heat on her body  , getting scared ,Getting up  , getting worried , crying  ,  saluting thinking   of Rama  ,Getting tired , getting trembling sensation, taking   deep  breaths   due to sorrow  ,And wailing    were the only acts she did  as she did not know anything to do.

5074. That Sita  who had waist thinner   than a strand of thread   was looking as if,Her long eyes had sunken down  and crossing the    golden colour of love sickness  ,And her eyes were called    rainy eyes   as she was continuously shedding   stream of tears.

5075. That Lady Sita   who was sick with love   was the   personification   of   the ,Sorrow   of parting  , for  one whom she  loved as a matter of right  and One who has matchless  love for her  and    since  pretty cloud, Kajal,And black leaves   which had dark   black colour reminded her   of Rama  ,She shed      tears   which were  coming from her like   the sea  as she was upset.

5076. When she thought of Rama   who had legs and arms  made  like pearl  ,And who was like the rain bearing cloud  , her long eyes were drenched with tears  ,And she got in to incurable sorrow  and   painful breaths    and ,She   was wearing   a  thin  cloth dried due to heat  and was not stable.

5077. She  got scared   thinking that escaping from the prison   or defeating the strength   of fate  ,Was impossible and due to her confidence that   Rama the lord of the Vedas   would come  ,To wipe  away the insult  meted out to his sun God clan  , she was  examining  ,Thoroughly  all  directions   expecting    the arrival of Rama.

5078.  A part   of the heavy hair of  Sita   who had    great patience  ,Which used   to get  attached   to   both   her pretty cheeks   and fall on the ground  ,Was   matted  and had become a single bundle   like the sharp teeth of Rahu  ,Who used to put the    pure   moon in his    mouth and then chew.

5079. Without    having any other cloth which was like   the  pretty  milk  cream ,Other than what she was wearing  , having  a body not taken bath   in clear   water,Which was blue  like the feathers  of peacock   , she   was like a  picture ,Drawn by   the god of love   with nectar  which came  out of the cold ocean,Which  appeared to have   been swallowed   by smoke.

5080. Thinking  “Perhaps Lakshmana who went   in search  of  Rama was not able to find him?Perhaps they did not know    that Ravana   who gives sorrow to the  whole world   has    stolen her ?Even if they   had known  , perhaps    they did not know    the City of Lanka    ,Was situated   in the middle of the tumultuous   sea ?” like this she became sad  ,And felt  pain as if the  burning fire has entered   in to a raw wound?

5081. ” The  king of Hawks Jatayu   had died and reached the heaven  and who else  ,Would have been able to tell my present    state   to   Rama, and it   would ,Be very  difficult    for me to  see Rama and Lakshmana  in this birth”Thinking like this Sita   became sad  , became disconsolate  and ,Became   tired   as if burning   fire   entered    her again and again.

5082.  “ Hearing the improper  words uttered  by  me   who has done the sinful act Of  not  bothering about Lakshmana, perhaps  Rama   thought  ,That  I am ignorant   and decided   to leave me ? Has the  old Karma  ,Decided   to give  me  sorrow  ?”  like this   she went on saying,Several things in order  , again and again  , got her toungue dried,Became very emotional  and     would   be sad , due to pain of the  soul.

5083. That lady Sita who would  not rise   and go away from the place    even if   ,The land she was sitting was attacked by white ants and an anthill rises   there,Would became sad thinking  “Who will serve Rama the tender dish  ,Made by   leafy vegetable  , for him to eat? What an amount of sorrow,Rama  must have felt on seeing guests?”  and  she will sob  ,And  get greatly worried   and    would get   depressed thinking,“Is there  any  medicine   for illness which  I myself  has caused   to me  ?”

5084.  That lady  who did   not know any difference   between night  and day,Thought  that “Perhaps   Rama has  discontinued  searching for   me ,Thing that   these cruel and cheating  Rakshasas would not have  kept her alive ,Till now but would   have eaten her. What   can I do now?”  or otherwise  ,Perhaps he thought   the patience observed    by his clan members  ,Is a   very   great    burden to him   and became peaceful .”

5085.  She thought  “Perhaps   the mother  who gave him birth    and his younger brother ,Must have come to the forest again   and must have taken back the victorious Rama  , Back to Ayodhya “    and thought  “Rama would not return  to Ayodhya   from the    forest  ,As per the word given till fourteen years are over “ and then thinking   ,That   the sorrow of Rama was indeed great  , become depressed   and greatly sorrowed.

5086.  She  who had witnessed    the fighting   of RAma with Khara  got worried   that, These Rakshasas   who like Mura   who fought    in earlier    days   with Lord Vishnu,Would be experts in getting many boons, in fighting with illusion  ,And cheating    and the war   with them would be matchless.

5087. She would suffer due to sorrow thinking about how  the daughter of king of Kekaya ,Told that   the very valorous   and broad   kingdom of  Kosala  belongs to your brother,And Rama became three  times more lustrous   and   was like a lion who is liked by  all.

5088. She would  remember the face of Rama   which was  like   the  drawingIn the wall of  the fully opened Lotus flower when Dasaratha   asked him,To assume the kingship   as well as when Kaikeyi  told him  ,To sacrifice the   kingship and    go away   to the   forest.

5089.  She   became sad in her mind recollecting   the  Shoulders of Rama,At the time  when she  was worried whether   he would be able to bend the bow  ,And he   bent  and broke in to two the  Meru mountain  like  bow of  Lord ShivaWho carried  the ganges  on his head   and who had   reddish eyes.

5090. She   praised    the great bow  of Rama    recollecting  the time,When he killed fourteen thousand   strong army  , who caused  .Trouble to the king of heaven Indra within a    short  period,Of time using that   bow  by bending on two ends  and became sad.

5091. She became sad   recollecting the feeling of Brother hood of Rama,Who addressing the poor hunter Guha   after he took them across ,The deep ganges and said, “My younger  brother Lakshmana  ,Is now your younger   brother ,you are my brother  .And this   Sita   is your sister  in law.”

5092. She recollected how   when her father   who had   fully realized God,Wanted to catch Rama’s feet   and extended  his hands , he  prevented   him ,And how when he was asked to catch her feet and   she tried to move away her feet,Rama  caught her pretty feet and kept  it on Durba grass  during marriage ceremonies.

5093. She would   become sad   recollecting Bharata   who not wearing  ,The best of the flowers and the crown that was his on his head,Came with matted hair   and   became sad for the turn of    fate.
5094. She cried   recollected the  time when the wealth  of his ancestors  ,Were taken away from him   and his   giving away hoards   of cows,To Trijata an avaricious  Brahmin  who did not have limit  ,To the ocean of desires in his mind   which made   Rama smile.

5095. She    suffered   thinking of the greatness   of Rama  who took over,Lord Parasurama who killed all kings for twenty one generations  using ,His axe which was bathed in their blood  , along with his penance  ,Strength   as   well as   his very huge   bow.

5096. She    remembered    and celebrated   the valour of Rama ,Who by just one arrow attacked the   son of Indra .In the form of a crow  , and took away    one of his eyes,And made   all the crows of the world lose  one eye  .

5097. Thinking about how  he  took away the   great sins of Viradha,Who has done evil acts   and removed    his curse  ,Which could not be removed   by any one  , She  lost,The stability  of her mind and soul  and became   famished.

5098. When Sita was like this except   Trijata  a Rakshasi  ,Who was an expert in telling very sweet words ,  all the  others,Who were  guarding Sita   slept  as it was  past midnight  ,And  became  one with     the alcohol    of sleep.

5099. Sita then looked at   Trijata who   was sweeter   than mother  ,In love   and told ,”You who are pure  , please hear,You are my friend “and then she started telling  her  ,Matchless   words   that  would describe her experience .

5100. ”Oh Trijata   who had  golden waist  which is like   ,The hand  held small drum, the right  eye and eye brows  ,Are not throbbing and does it mean  happiness   is throbbing ,To reach me  ?Is there more sorrow   that is coming towards  meDue to cruelty of bad fate  ?  I  am existing without analyzing the future.”

5101. When Rama     came to the    city of Mithila    along   with ,Sage Viswaithra, my faultless   eye brows  , shoulders   and  eye,Throbbed  to show the arrival of pleasure and even  at this time  ,They are throbbing like that   without  stopping  ,Please   think about deeply and tell me the reason.”

5102. I forgot to tell you something   and  so please hear that also,When my  lord of the soul   left all the earth that   was his  ,And  gave it to his brother and we came   to the forest  ,Leaving all that   again my right side throbbed.

5103. ”Oh lady who reassures  me with mercy,  on the day  the poison like Ravana  ,Reached Panchavati   to cheat me   , even then also all my right throbbed,These throbbing tell me    the truth  and now   my faultless organs  on left are also throbbing,What   is the good thing that is likely to happen to me.

5104. As  soon as   Sita  told like this, That Trijata    who had a very loving heart  said,“Let auspicious things happen to you. You would now definitely    rejoin  ,With your Lord   who is your protector   and besides ,Please hear    what  I am going to say.” And   she started   telling.

5105. ”Oh lady  with a good colour    who has luster , for the sake  ,Of change of your colour of separation   and for  your life   becoming great,One bee with a golden colour   slowly came to your side  ,And sang sweetly into your ears with love  for your betterment.”

5106.  “If we think about it deeply   , that bee  had told you,That an emissary  of your soul like lord   would   come and meet you.The coming of bad  things    to the cruel people   is certain ,And to reassure that  please hear what happened to me” and started telling.

5107. “You never sleep   and   therefore   you are not able to see any dreams,When I closed my sharp spear like eyes  , I happened to see a dream .In this country which  starts all evil  , what I saw  where all faultless,They were  purified by culture   and more   true   than Sun God, Please hear.”

5108. ”Oh Lady who has faultless   chastity , Ravana who holds the best of spears,Applying oil on all his ten   heads  , wearing red cloth   was riding on  ,An evil big chariot drawn by   donkeys   as well as ghosts,Without knowing    where  he goes and reached  the southern direction.”

5109. “The sons and relatives of Ravana   and all other Rakshasas  also,Reached that southern   direction   and did not return back .I saw this without any confusion  and   please   hear  ,Other scenes of the dream which   would cause   bad tidings to Ravana.”

5110. ”The fire raised   by that masculine   Ravana   did not grow ,And in that   fireplace   crowds   of  white ants   were generated,That lustrous old palace   with  lamps having wicks that   need not be  pushed up,Was broken at dawn  due   to great    thunder falls.”

5111. ”The rut water   started flowing for female elephants and the huge  drums,Without any body beating them gave  rise    to sounds like thunder ,Without clouds and lightning   the clear sky  started shaking  ,As if the entire globe is breaking   and all stars started   falling down.”

5112. “ Even without   day time with light , The sun would   shine  ,Removing all darkness   as if it is day time  , The divine garland ,Made of Karpaga flowers    worn by  Valorous heroes  ,With huge shoulders fighting with wrestlers   would give out scent of meat.”

5113. “ The city of Lanka as well as its   walls    spun and  caught  fire,On all its sides.In all places    the private parts of the ladies would be seen ,Auspicious  pots would break and the darkness  which would swallow even lamps  would multiply.”

5114. “The pillars    used for decoration of the   city broke  , The elephants,Wearing the masks  started  shivering  and their long tusks   broke  ,And The water of Poorna Kumbha installed   by Brahmins knowing Vedas  ,Ebbed  out of    the   pot like   toddy.”

5115. ”The stars in the sky  pierced  the moon   and  went  up,To th clouds which cover the sky  and  would shower blood from unhealed   wounds,The staff  , wheel  , sword , bow    and  other    weapons  ,Would start fighting with each other making the ocean  tumultuous.”

5116. ”The auspicious  Mangala Suthra of  the Rakshasis   with out,Any one cutting them  got   cut themselves   and fell on their chest,And please also further hear   the surprising events that  ,Happened     in the city   of Lanka   , in my dream.”

5117. “The  braids  of the  chief queen of Ravana   , who is the daughter of Maya  ,Loosened   by itself   and fell on the ground  and that hair , due to the fire,That cannot be approached near   gave out evil smell  ,And what is the meaning of this ? It only says more   sorrow to Ravana,”

5118. After telling this she told, “Now please  hear about ,A different dream of mine  . Today  , here at this time  ,Two strong  lions which support each other  along ,With a crowd of tigers   had come to Lanka    from the mountain.”

5119. ”That forest without restrictions  in which     elephants   in rut live  ,Was surrounded by    lions with a view   to destroy it   and  waged war  ,And then  they killed    all those there   and corpses piled up in the forest  ,And from there   one peacock went out from there    to reach its  town.”

5120. ”Oh Lady Sita    who talks softly  , one lady with    red colour ,Carrying a composite lamp  consisting of one  thousand lamps  ,Which  threw  light for  a long distance ,  left   the palace of Ravana  ,And reached   the   temple like   home of Vibheeshana.”

5121. ”At that  matchless  time when she    reached  the palace of Vibheeshana,You woke me up   and so that  dream did not  come    to an end  ,” Sita said,Oh mother like lady  , you please see the remaining part of the dream,” and  so please sleep again.”

3122. At that time  , Hanuman, the emissary of war sent by lord Rama,Who was like the very able bull  , examined with difficulty   that garden,Reached   that place where Sita was there and saw,The greatly sorrowing    Sita     , sitting and doing penance.

5123. ,At that time all those Rakshasis who were sleeping  awoke,From their sleep  and said  , “Alas  The sleep which is not proper  ,For us in this place   has spoiled us.”  And they all got up on all sides ,Holding the cruel spear  , axe  , staff  , and trident   and,With  very cruel hands   approached  Lady Sita.

5124. Those Rakshasis were having mouth in their stomach  , had eyes,On the forehead that   was bending forward , had cruel looks,And   in between their teeth  elephants, Yali   and ghosts  ,Were sleeping and they had a mouth like  a cruel  mountain cave.

5125. ,Some of them had  ten hands   and one head ,Some had   twenty heads    and only two hands  ,andAll of them had fearsome looks  , had  funny  looks  ,And were hanging on them more than two very heavy   breasts.

5126. Their hands   knew how to use  trident , sword  , wheel ,Goad  , iron pestles and  death like  spears and Kappanas  ,They had body like poison   and were   trained hands  ,And had the nature which made  even Lord Shiva with the axe get scared of them.

5127. They   were having faces like elephant  , horses  , tiger  , huge bear  .Yali  , ghost  , Lion , jackal   and dog according to their innate nature ,And this was placed on their back, they had three   eyes.They had   adopted   cruelty   as  per their liking,And they had a mouth from which smoke came  out.

5128. They were    having  immeasurable strength of mind ,They had  a   form which cannot   be   measured by the eyes,They were   wandering all over calling themselves   as ladies,And making those who see   them shiver   , they got up   from sleep,And started   going round and round    the Lady Sita,

5129. There   Sita   who was the wife of pretty Rama  , not able to speak,Was looking at the fire like face   of the Rakshasis  and was getting upset,And  the emissary of  Rama   speedily came   and reached  ,The top of the tree    below which lady Sita  was  sitting.

5130. Those Rakshasis carrying    spear and other weapons  ,After   getting up from the sleep and   were standing in a crowd,And Hanuman   speedily examined   the   reason for that   and  stared  at them.

5131. He saw Lady Sita who was  like a  magnet   drawing out  the spear of parting,Which had pierced the chest of Rama   who was matchless  , best and lustrous,Like the cloud and was like the  Lord of the eon    , like a streak  of lightning  ,Among the black coloured Rakshasis   who were  like a broad   cloud.

5132. In the middle  of the  lake   which had fallen from her    eyes ,Like a big ocean, She  was like a matchless  swan   who,Was caught in between those Rakshasis whom she cannot cross,And that   Sita who was like    a   tender  creeper was  also a female.

5133. ,Since   her   faultless divine   body had  all the best features ,She was not different  from the specifications  made by Rama  ,And so  he concluded that it was Sita and thought  “what a cruel act ,Has   been done by the cheating and cruel Ravana   by hiding  here,The  soul   of Rama    who had eyes  like   lotus flower.”

5134. The  cruelty  of putting  Sita   in prison   was an act  of Lord Vishnu,For stealing the life of Ravana   who made all the three   worlds ,Err   from   their good nature  . Is it fitting  and proper?And this  is the  goddess   who came  away   from sleep    on the  ,Snake   bed of Rama   and she is Goddess Lakshmi   sitting  on lotus flower.”

5135. Hanuman after drinking the honey of   joy exclaimed  , “Dharma  has not died,I  would not die as I who has been searching for Sita    has found her    out  ,She definitely is Lady Sita “ and then    sang  and danced,And    ran , walked and jumped     here   and there.”

5136. Hanuman thought  “Sita  is like a gem covered   with dirt  and she has,Lost her luster  like   the jaded   moon   which is hidden by  harsh rays of sun,IN this  lady who had   hair covered with dirt , the chastity    and love ,Towards   Rama  has not reduced   even a bit, Can Dharma   die?”

5137. Hanuman thought  “Shall I  praise , the  pretty  shoulders of Rama,Or shall I praise  the greatness of the mind  of  Sita who is the  best among ladiesOr shall I praise   the clan of Janaka who has become great by charity?”

5138. Hanuman further   thought  , “Devas have not  done any mistake,The Brahmins who are like God have  not done any mistake ,My work as a slave  has also been faultless   and so Dharma would not die.”

5139. ”Even if the mental balance   of that   matchless  lady  is affected even a little,  I thought   that  the ocean like anger of  Rama who holds the wheel  would rise up and ebb.And would lead   the end of the eons  , From now on  , let the world forever live with comfort.”

5140. ”Is the  mental    penance done by ladies   , who were  born in a good clan,And who have  attained   greatness in family life  , is very easy  , like we  say?
Where   are   those people    who take bath in five  cruel fires  ,Who control all their senses  and who have left  off food and water   before these ladies?”

5141. ”Due to the   birth  of Sita  , the birth in great clans   had done great penance ,To  be  respected by others. Like the nature of women   their shyness  ,Also has done penance and became   great  but in this   city   of Lanka,Sita   has done great penance of chastity  and that  complete culture   is all due to  that Rama.

5142. ”Except   lady Sita who does  only sweet things   , she does not have any support.Those Rakshasis who have  gone away from proper   way   are those   who get   angry with her.In this state her solitude   and peaceful nature and the penance of chastity  ,Perhaps makes   us think that   all the greatness of Dharma were made for women.”

5143. ”Was  It protected by Dharma? Was it protected    by   good   fate  ,And good Karma of Janaka ? Was it protected by chastity  ?It is rare   and great  ,Who  can do penance like this   as    this penance has matchless   greatness,And can people   like us     tell some thing about it?”

5144. ”Both   at night  and day   Devas  would be doing    service of  slaves.Their wealth was like this  and cruelty done by the   Rakshasas   was like this Is it proper   for any one ?would bad Karma    win over    Dharma  ?And   from now onwards    where   is sorrow    to this world?”

5145. Hauman   was thinking such thoughts   ,And entered in to the  big  bush  of  trees which were pretty    , tall  ,Made of Gold  and well grown  and stood there  hiding himself .What happened   there was , in the   flower decked   entrance  ,Of that  Garden  , Ravana  made   his appearance  .

5146. ,   Just like all prosperous mountains   have joined together   at one place,Wearing fish like armlets, diamond ear globes shining   near  his strong   shoulders,Resembling  the sun God reflected   in the ocean   dug out by  Sagaras,With different type   of crowns   spreading   luster, Ravana came making the night  appear like day.

5147. With Urvasi carrying his sword and following him  , with Menaka  ,Standing near and  offering him betel leaves , Thilothama   carrying his foot wear,With deva ladies surrounding him from all directions  ,With sandal paste   mixed with camphor   and kumkum  spreading  likable scent Making  the  tusks  mountain like elephants of direction   resembling his nose Ravana came.

5148.   With eight crore   ladies  holding   the lamp of ghee   and musk  in their hands,And the ornaments worn by those   ladies  with their luster   swallowing all darkness ,With several type of ladies following him like   the crowd   of white swans  .Wearing sound making anklets and   waist belts , Ravana   came.

5149.  Indra and  all other devas  who do not blink their eyes  understanding  that,Evil has entered in to the mind of Ravana  because he had    got up from sleep ,Due to great anger  and were wondering   “what was the sorrow , that came in Lanka?And whether   this will be limited  to the cool scented garden  where  Sita  ,With moon like face    and who is similar  to Lady Arundathi  ?Or would it  turn to destroy other people   “   thinking like this ,They all   got greatly scared     and preferred   to keep silent.

5150. With wearing costly    white silk , wearing silk upper  cloth, and looking like  ,A blue mountain   which is tall having a   white stream    from top to bottom,With   the great gems  of his golden garland   giving out    great luster.Which was  like the yellow early sun light   and with the white scared thread  ,Worn over the chest   moving here   and there  like  ,The streak of lightning    that divides   the black water   rich clouds , Ravana came.

5151. With the great luster  of the  fish shaped armlets  which are diamond studded ,Which he wears    on all his shoulders  controlling the   stars   and planets ,Which  daily move round the sky   which is the vehicle  of sound,And with the  greatly lustrous heroic anklets     that he wore on all his legs  ,Going through all the world  , Ravana  who lights    the darkness  , with his smileOn his face  which was like the silvery moon light   came .

5152. With the   golden colour silk dress which was in    contrast   with his black   colour,Dressed   properly  with proper folds  making him look pretty , being similar   to  ,The young yellow sun light  on the slopes   of the black mountain .With wearing  fresh bangles of the colour of lightning  embedded   with  .Gem stones    with very great luster , Ravana came like  Karpaga    forest.

5153. With  white  pearl garland of victory having a dollar  called Channaveeram ,Which was  like   the stars and planets   getting attached   to the golden Meru mountain,Shining  like  streak of lightning among  the other   ornaments  ,With his  shining ten crowns similar to the    twelve  forms of Sun,Appearing on the top of the mountain of sun rise  ,With   two forms    of Sun removing   and  giving    very great   luster  ,  Ravana    arrived.

5154. With  the big elephants   guarding    the directions having immense flow of rut,Bearing ,great   insult from the world  , due to their two tusks which were at    the of their teethGetting broken   , crowding  together   like the Kailasa  mountain,Having     felt  by   touching  the foot marks of Lord Narasimha  ,with very sharp teeth,Who came  or   destroying  Hiranya who had    huge powerful shoulders   as   well as the power  ,Of many great   boons, getting greatly scared    Ravana   came.

With  the arrows  of God of love   shooting sharp arrows ,With an aim to wound a person   and create heat and  like spear  entering,That   wound that has been created , the rays of full moon  spread  in to those wounds And also the breeze  was  wafting     and collecting water   from all flowers,And made the  rain shower   of drops of honey    as well was water   drops ,Hitting   the body  of Ravana like  melted    copper  , Ravana   came.

5160 . With ladies  with thread like  waist   which made us fear it may break  ,With two  pretty   erect breasts   which were  on both sides like  containers,Giving light  , and the upper   cloth    hiding them  , with lotus  like face ,Wearing    ear globes  , who bent and saw,  with smile, with  mouth ,Like red lily flowers   and  with  cloud like    eyes,    which had red ends  ,Fighting on his     chest   as well as  shoulders   Ravana    came.

5162.  The great  city of Lanka   which had    the ocean itself as its moat ,Built on a mountain  , went down when    Ravana  kept   his  step downwards  ,While walking  making   the water  and tides in the   ocean  tumultuous,And used   to jump  and go to all   the directions  made   Adhi sesha ,Who had poisonous teeth    open mouth, and unapproachable   totter, And also   the goddess   earth who wore  the ocean as   her dress,Had to bent   her back as     well   as   to rotate.

5163. ,  The  Rakshasa   ladies    who  were two times    stronger   than Thadaga  ,Who were capable   of carrying  a  well formed   big mountains  by  hands wearing bangles ,And who were capable   of killing   their enemies     in battle    walked,  carrying  ,All weapons like Shield  , axe  , pestle  ,   spear  , goad  , iron mace with thorns  ,Kidugas(A type of shield) ),  golden swords  , trident  s bows  ,   Vajrayudha  , on their heads .

5164.  That   great gardens   were full of trees open new   leaves  , flowers , branches  ,Leaves  , base   ,  roots  and all other parts   made   by gems as well   as gold Were spitting     fire which made    all directions burn   and become black  ,And with his deep    tortured    breath   spreading    forward,And though he knew the   direction where  Sita    was sitting  ,Due to tottering mind   he   was wandering  like  a snake ,With several heads   which was searching   for matchless   gem , it  had lost .

5165.  The matchless  Hanuman who was      the son of Anjana  saw  ,Ravana who was the chief   of Rakshasas, who came there  in a matchless   way,And  after   examining   him thinking  that   he would be able    to find out  ,The cheating nature  , his  actions and the    future results  of such actions,And   started telling   the fame   of Rama   who was   wearing hero anklets,But   continued   to remain   in hiding.

5166. At that place   when   the  group of deva  maidens   and  the  group,Of all other ladies  moving   separately   and reached   the place ,Where Sita who was the  lamp among ladies was sitting ,And there   she got greatly scared  and trembled  like  ,One who was about to lose  her soul   and was like a female   deer  belonging   to a male deer ,Seeing   a  very strong   angry  tiger    with lines  and dots   and  eyes with smoke  ,Which is coming    to eat her   and she    wailed.

5167..  Hanuman saw Lady Sita who was nauseated   and  was  greatly   upset,And Ravana   who was    destroying his   good conduct   due  to passion,With his two eyes  as witness  and was upset  and  became  very worried.

5168. “Long  live daughter of Janaka  , Long live Lord Rama,Long live the four Vedas  , Long live  Brahmins  , Long live  good dharma  .”Greeted Hanuman   whose fame  becomes  newer  in all   ages.

5169. That Rakshasa   who was desiring   the harsh poison as  nectar  ,Came there   and reached   that spot   and said to Sita,“Oh lady who is like a koel and whose  waist  is sorrowing  ,Please   tell me when you are   going to shower your grace on me.”

5170.  That Ravana who had  a heart   which will not lose  its pride  or strengthEven if   the person who comes  against    him is Lord Shiva Due to   his passion   and shyness   became   sad  ,And becoming very small  told   the following words.

5171. ”Oh  very cruel  lady whose  red eyes   touches the ear globes ,Today is dead   and  many days  are already dead  ,Does the mercy  that   you are   going to show me  ,Consist   of joining   me    after   I am dead.”

5172. ”Oh best among ladies , Have you seen any fault  in my rule  ,Which is spread   all over the   three worlds   together ,Which has limitless   wealth   except  in the war  ,With God  of love    , only because   of you.”

5173. ”Oh golden lady   who has  long hair decorated by flowers,You have insulted   the fame of  my wealth ,Would not your  soul like husband  ,Not killed   by me  and  after he crosses  the forests,And reaches Ayodhya  , gets back that kingdom  ,Live  like a very ordinary   man there .”

5174. ”Oh lady whose breasts   cannot be controlled   by a tied  up cloth,If we  examine deeply   the benefit    which can be got by ,Those who do penance  and   those who examine deeply  philosophies ,It is   accepting  my orders  like   the devas with crown   that  would give joy.”

5175. “Oh lady   who speaks in a lisping tone  making   children  ,Yaazh   and   Naganavai   birds   dejected , did Lord Brahma  ,Create  you making   your heart scarce  of  mercy ,As well as with  a waist   like streak of lightning  .

5176. ”In this world   , youth    and life    are  things which do not return,They have    the property of slowly getting changed   in to a different form,Would you drown yourself in sorrow     and    worry over ,If the your  youth which  others    desire   gets   destroyed.”

5177.  “Oh lady who has a face adorned by ear globes,   due to the change  of your mind ,Even if destruction  comes to me    and my soul  , I would  not be sorry about it  ,But after my death  who can  ever  be born   in this world   with passion and beauty , Which is permanent   like   me    to suit    you?”

5178. ”Oh lady of the   house of Janaka  , feminine quality   , beauty   and  ,Faultless   strength of mind   are considered   as very great qualities,Please tell me   when you have   all these   best qualities   in you,What is the reason that  you do not show   mercy  and the nature  of giving ?”

5179. ”Oh lady who is like a   parrot , even after   Mareecha  has killed Rama,And you have heard his wail ,  are you still waiting    to see  Rama?When  the result of good Dharma   is trying to  properly establish you,And  trying to present you great things  , why are   you insulting it?”

5180. ”If my great soul is destroyed    by you , my death less  great wealth  ,Also would be destroyed  . Instead   of  this world    saying that  , “This lanka   has become    greater by the arrival of a matchless   one like you  “It would say  “Due to Sita Lanka was destroyed”. Would you take this bad name?”

5181. ”Oh lady who wears matchless  ornaments, the  lord ship of the three  worlds,Which is a matchless   position and which would make   devas and deva maidens  ,Salute your feet  has come to you  . You have rejected it , who can be more ignorant than you?”

5182. Ravana   who was not bothered  about the bad name    coming to him  ,Said  “ Please accept me who has won over  all the three  worlds  ,And am ruling all its citizens   and  make    me your slave  “And  joining in salute his hand over his head  , fell on the ground to salute her feet.

5183. Even before these words  which were  hot like iron bars   heated  in fire  ,Left  the mouth of Ravana   and reached   Sita  , her    ears   became   extremely hot,Her  mind went away from mercy, blood started    flowing    in to her eyes ,Without   bothering for her soul  , she started    replying him   with these  words ,Which are not feminine and which are   very hot.

5184. “Oh person who is like a twig,  has the mind of lady   which   has  friendship with rock,Thought   anything   greater   than chastity? Your words   are not suitable   to be told,To a lady of good birth  because   they are  harsh . Please hear  these words from my mind .”Said she  and with great anger   and she told   words   which could  change  ,The mind of Ravana who  had high shoulders   which could defeat wrestlers.

5185. “Oh ignorant one ,  the arrow   of Rama   if it wishes   has the capacity  ,To put a  hole in Meru mountain  or split the sky   or  even destroy   ,All  the fourteen worlds   if it desires and  even after knowing this  ,By talking irrelevant things   would you allow   your ten heads   to fall down?”

5186. ”Because   you were   scared of him   that day   when Rama was  tired ,You sent a deer   which is personification of cheating   and came  ,Using   a false  illusory  garb. If you want to escape and live, release me now,Because    at the time of  war would your eye  be ableTo see Rama  who is poison to your  entire   clan?’

5187. ”At that time did you not  fall   fall down on earth    due to Jatayu?Is not your ten heads    and twenty shoulders   a picture made  ,So that   they are suitable   for  carrying out a  play  by Lord Rama?You do not have    the strength to face   Rama in war”

5188. ”At that time  you lost to a bird but  won over him using the sword  ,Of Lord Shiva  who carries    the  proud    river Ganges   on his head,If you did not have sword  , you would have been dead on that itself,The penance you did  , your life span   and the boons    that you got ,If properly thought can prevent God  of death from coming ,But would not be able    to the   stop the arrows of heroic Rama.”

5189. “The sword that you got , the strength that   you got by your birth  ,And all other things that you have   as well  the words   given to you,By Lord Brahma sitting on the lotus flower  would all be swept away,As soon as Rama  places his arrow on his bow   , would lose their power .And would get destroyed. This is true .How can darkness stand  before  light of a lamp?”

5190. “At the time when you  uprooted     the Kailasa  mountain  ,That Shiva who controlled  you by the pressing of his    thumb,Had bent the  great Meru mountain in to a    bow and destroyed   the three cities,And   have you not heard  the sound    of breaking of that bow,When my husband who is a support    for me  broke  it, which  was not a match to his strength.” 

5191. ”You who say that you uprooted    the Kailasa   mountain  and broke,The determination of    the eight elephants   of directions  ,Did not come when Lakshmana     was protecting me ,Are only carrying your heads   only to salute the ladies?”

5192. ”Oh ignorant one,  the city   of Lanka    is your place   of hiding  ,And when my lord Rama knows about it  , sea as  well  as the city,Would get destroyed   and would it end   at that?Would he get peace     after    destroying you  ,And  he would even burn the fire    at deluge?”

5193. ”I am afraid that  on that day   whether  he would stop  ,With killing of   the Rakshasas    who are   greatly angry  ,Because that  Lord due to your    cheating   may destroy,The entire faultless   world . The books of Dharma are  the witness to my thought.”

5194. “Oh Cruel person who is living making    the  pretty earth    as well as heaven scared,Leave this silly pursuit of yours and follow    what   I say  because  , your  arethinking that my Lord Rama That he is  as  simple as Lord Vishnu with red eyes, Brahma with four heads and Lord Shiva , is due to  your ignorance.”

5195. If you think that     these  Rama and Lakshmana are  after all men,Then it is   wrong , if Karthaveeryarjuna who is greater  than a forest  ,And taller   than the mountain got killed   by a mere man Parasurama .You can guess   about the prowess   and strength    of lord Rama.

5196. ”Oh Ravana who is going to lose your  matchless wealth   and then die,It is not proper for you  to  be  with ill feeling tell that they are  just two  people Is not that Lord Shiva   the lord of the deluge  who is   going to destroy the world,Just one person    and you would realize the truth of this when the time comes.”

5197. “Even when Hiranya   , his brother   and other asuras who   are all warriors,Who   had    shoulders    like    the strings of bows and other cruel people ,Forsook the good Dharma   which is praised   by very wise people  , They never    abducted   the wife of others  but  went away  ,When they saw      the wife   of other people.”

5198. ”Oh ignorant one  , if you properly realize  ,  did not    all devas , with Lord Brahma AS their chief   and   who  control their five senses  and who did  not go in the wrong path  and   all  Asuras   who  are  those who have moved away from bad fate have all the wealth,But which made  them  your  slaves. If you have wealth   ,Is it due to sins you did, or due to Dharma you did ?Please think about it.”

5199. , “Oh ignorant one , The great  lord Shiva who gave you all this big wealth Is always immersed in penance  and is earning    the great spiritual wealth , is it not?When it is like that you are moving away from Dharma  which     would make,This  matchless   wealth move away from you  and you along with your ,Relations would get destroyed .Would you not desire to follow Dharma?”

5200. ”Even though  one is greatly strong ,   he  does not go away from valour   and never gets defeated,He would also die but those   who move away from Dharma   and who do   not show  mercy,On others  also die .But  only those   who get detached   from desires and loseThe  three  types of enmity are the ones who escape   from the circle  of birth and death ,Are   there   any one else     who do that  , please tell.”

5201. ”Oh king   , All the sages who have moved away from evil  , including Agasthya  ,Who wrote grammar  of sweet tamil  were not able to manage   with the Rakshasas,And told us who had entered the forest   that  “ we are not able to do penance  and so in truth  ,Please destroy all those asuras   and help us.” And I  also heard that.,And you who do not   know about that   and are  doing evil as per their words.”

5202. ”Those sages  told us  your leadership  , your strength , your  great life span,And the power   of  your great army    and even after knowing that  ,we cut off  ,The nose of your sister   as well as    cut in to   piecesThe shoulders and legs  of your brothers . Would you not   think about it ?”

5203. ”Oh silly fellow   who do  not know  norms of justice   ,  have you not heard  ,About defeat  of Parasurama   who cut off the diamond shoulders  of,Karthaveeryarjuna   who with his one thousand hands   caught   your twenty hands ,Hit you in such a way that  blood came out of your mouths and put you in a great prison.”

5204. ”Even the snake which is used to biting   would become  calm by chants,But there is no one here   who can tell you who is very proud  that.“This can be done” and “this should not be done” with old examples ,And pointing out the wisdom to you. The people    in your council,,Are   those   who honour your opinions   and they are really destroying you,And when things are like    , what can you expect   except destruction.” Sita said

 5205. When  Sita told    these concepts of Dharma  , Ravana heard    that,And all his twenty eyes   resembled   the lightning   coming out of the clouds,And his mouth which gave away heat   shouted as if  mountains can be broken.How to describe his anger? It was  more than the power  of passion which he  had.

5206. He stood   up with erect legs   and   with his  shoulders he hid   all the directions  ,And with his eyes   spitting out fire in anger said, “I will  cut this lady and eat her.”And with   the bursting anger   and  the controlled passion  alternatively,Fighting with each other  , he started to go but   stood.

5207. At that time  Hanuman  decided   firmly in his enraged mind,“Before this Ravana , who spoke ill of the  Arundathi  like wife of Rama   ,Who is having me as her   slave  , touches her  , I would kick him by my legs  ,Grind him by my hands   and kill him and later  do my good  job.”

5208. He further thought,  “I who am alone would    stand up    , shatter ,All his ten heads   ,  drown  to the bottom , this    city of Lanka inside    the cool sea Carry   the pure lady of great penance   and go away    with great  joy,”And grinding one palm with another    was awaiting    for the  proper time.

5209. At that time  the cruel Ravana   With his mature anger   which was burning,Like at the fire at deluge  urging him  to destroy the entire world,Being doused   by the   flood  of passion , decided  not to kill Sita ,And with his   matchless   passion for   her   started   talking like    this.

5210. ”In great anger  I told I will kill you  but   I will not kill    you.I want to reply   to each of    the criticisms   made   on me  , there  are sufficient words,This is something   which I am capable of doing   but    are there   anything  that  is,Not within my power    which would make me say  I cannot do it.In previous times     winning   and losing    happened   as if it was a play.”

5211. ”Please  hear one  word from me  .Had I killed   Rama  , who was  like your soul  .And who belonged to you and  then brought  you here  , suppose   you  leave your life,Then  my  precious soul also would    go away . After   examining this truth carefully  ,I carried   out this cheating  , Are  there   anybody  equal   to me.”

5212. “Oh lady   who speaks sweet words  which are sweeter    than honey  ,Those men  who had gone  behind   that  Rakshasa thinking it is a deer  ,If they come to know  that I have abducted   you  , would not come to Lanka.If you  think that   they would come    it is ignorance   because  , even if they are   devas,Once they understand that I have done it  , they  would become  dejected and would not come  here.

5213. “Oh lady  with thin shoulders , when there   are  people  like Vali who have won over me,And there   the  trinity   who are   above everyone   and devas   who are supposed to have no death,Since long time  Indra is acting as my slave  and I am ruling over  all three worlds  together  ,And  I am the only matchless one  ,Is it necessary to tell   any other  reason ?’

5214. ”Oh  lady who is like a doll  who speaks   sweet words.I would not kill those  men,Who are like cows  and of great penance ,  so that  I would   get a bad name because of you   by making ,The  complete  victory that I had by making    the trinity  as well as devas  weak.I would call   them here   and employ them to do  my work. You please see that.”

5215. “Oh lady who does not have  any fault  , I would  not get fully matured   anger  ,With  valour  , on men  who have less culture  , less strength   and   do   lowly    jobs.In spite of that   this day   at this time  I can catch both of them ,And  bring them here. You can now witness    my very great   strength  .

5216. ”Oh lady   who wears  newly  made bangles, though they are  men who are  like grass,Thinking of the help done by them of   giving   you to me  , they   are not fit to be killed , but,You desire   that   they should be destroyed and if you  consent    to my trick,And if  killing is a better deed, I would   carry out    that job immediately.”

5217. ”Oh lady with a lesser  life span  , I am capable of reaching  Ayodhya   surrounded by moat  ,Kill all those who are   there  including Bharata   and from there travel like   a fire at deluge,Kill all those people  living in Mithila   with great prosperity  and easily   return back,And kill you also here  . Perhaps   you have not understood  me properly.

5218. After Ravana   told these words  he became   greatly furious   and looking  at ,The sword  in his hand  told  her, “This sword   would  destroy your soul.Only two months is left    in the time given to you by me earlier,Till then you   suffer  this sorrow  “  Then keeping   that lady  who had  .Eyes like the bees   in the lotus flower in his mind  , he chided her  and went away.

5219.  While   going    he instructed   the Rakshasis    who have a   smile less  face  ,Great   anger and open mouth ,” to  make  Sita who was    more tender  ,Than a Vanchi climber  scared   by some trick or by some other trick  ,Make her  very wise   but confused  mind , clear  and  make her ,Get attracted   to him.” He told   them to come and meet him afterwards,And if they do not do it he told  , “I would be like   poison to you .”

5220. After   Ravana returned back  , those   Rakshasis    who were   expert in doing evil,Surrounded   peacock like Sita  who was like   the clear moon   spit   by Rahu after   swallowing him Shouted her  , insulted her   , chastised her  and did all  that they wanted and started  speaking fiercely.

5221. Some Rakshasis who were standing in front of Sita  , with fire coming out of   their eyes,Speedily approached her   , lifted their shining    spear and sword .Above their heads shouted “Kill her, kill her.  Make   her in to pieces  ,And eat   those as much as you like   and fill up your belly.” Shouted they.

5222. Some other  Rakshasis    looked at Sita   and told,” Ravana who wins in his acts  ,Is   the son of sage Pulasthya     who is the   son of Lord    Brahma  who created the world  ,He is a matchless leader. He knows   one thousand Vedas and he is very wise .His keeping   true  love   towards   you, in what   way is he  insulting you?”

5223. Some other Rakshasis told , “Oh bad one among ladies, by your cruel words ,Similar to introducing arrows in a wound   you  caused   the evil Rama and Lakshmana,And  created   the  disease   by which  , they  and their relations have   died.Do not see   everyone in an equal manner   but   observe  the truth.”

5224. Some other  Rakshasis   told  “Oh lady without feeling   You have   sown burning fire  ,To the clan of the family of yoyr husband   as well as the clan of    your father ,And have  come here. You are already destroyed   and  all  ,The crowd of your own people   would  not be  able    to live further. we have told  firmly.”

5225. That Sita   who never gets depressed  by   any sorrow  , saw    the  nature of Rakshasis,Who were approaching   to kill her   , Others saying , our Lord    would definitely win  ,So  let us eat her  and thought   in mind their extremely fat  body  ,Their cruel words   and    the orders  of the cruel Ravana  ,And with her   both eyes     full of tears     started   laughing.

5226. When  such misfortunes occurred    to Sita  , Trijata   who  was ,In between the Rakshasis and Sita ,   addressing Sita   told  ,“Oh mother   , I have already told you    about   the end of my dream.In spite of it suppose you get dejected  , that   is a crime.” She said.Then Sita said, “Oh mother     what you   told is right  “ and then,She got consoled and composed    and this made Rakshasis  calmed town.

5227. Trijata   who was like   those   who knew about past , present  and future,Those words   and those  Rakshasis  who never left Sita   anywhere ,And those Rakshassis  who never left     the side of Ravana, brought an end their anger ,And  stayed calm and that lady   who was innocent and had   curled  black hair   ,Kept quiet   and was successful  in  keeping her  composure.
