RamaayaN by Valmiki -11 ,But how?


RamaayaN by Valmiki 11


MadanMohan Tarun


But how?


Hanuman, the winged mountain, descended on the other side of the ocean where his all fellow colleagues like Jamvan, Angad, Neel and others were waiting for him eagerly, from the day he had left for Lanka. Hanuman roared in thrilling voice of victory.
Bear Jamvant, the senior most among all, announced –‘Hanuman has done the job he had gone for. The way he roared declares his success.’ A thrilling glitter ran over the faces of monkeys hearing these words of Jamvan. Their tails rose automatically and they all ran leaping to Hanuman and surrounded with curiosity.
After Hanuman narrated the whole story about what happened in Lanka, monkeys jumped with boundless joy, but felt sad when Hanuman narrated how Sita lives there among horrible ogresses. Many..many huge monkeys like elephants and aggressive bulls raised their tails out of anger and were ready to go to Lanka to kill Ravan.
With great difficulty they were stopped and they all proceeded to give the result of their search to the king Sugreeva and shri Ram.
Till Hanuman was back from Lanka, monkeys had forgotten their hunger and thirst. They were worried about the result. Now they were comfortable and full of joy which knew no boundaries. Before reaching to the palace of Sugreeva, they all were allowed by Angad to fill their stomach up to their content in the Madhuvan, the royal garden known for its tastiest fruits of varieties. Monkeys entered into the garden and started leaping from tree to tree and eating fruits freely. They did not listen to guards when they tried to stop them. Guards ran to Sugreeva and informed him about what monkeys were doing under the leadership of prince Angad. Hearing this face of Sugreeva started glowing with pleasure. His huge tail raised high and he spoke out loudly- ‘they are back with positive result …’in no time they all came to Sugreeva and Hanuman gave him full details of what had happened in Lanka. Sugreeva hugged Hanuman with great pleasure and satisfaction and they all left to meet shri Ram.
Ram and Laxman greeted Hanuman with high regard .Ram eagerly wanted to know about Sita. How is she there? ‘O gallant monkey, O tiger among all, O performer of impossible … tell me...tell me how is Sita there!’Hanuman narrated the whole story about what had happened in Lanka and he told him about Sita-‘I saw Sita in the Ashoka grove, thin of fasts with matted hair locks, emaciated and stained with dust. Her face reflected deep pain of sufferings. She is always, surrounded by horrific ogresses, who keep watch on her.
I saw her turning into violent flames of fire when Ravan came to her and asked to change her mind. However, Ravan could not dare to face the flame – like lady longer. He left soon, threatening her o kill if she does not change within thirty days from then.’
Hearing this, eyes of Ram went filled with tears, his voice choked and he hugged Hanuman tightly and said ‘when I see your eyes, I feel her presence here. I can hear the voice of her deep self calling me for her rescue. Now I cannot wait any longer in Kiskindha. We all must cross the ocean and finish the story of Ravan forever without any further delay.’
But how?
