Hanuman was listening to Trijata and Sita’s conversation from the tree-top. When Trijata left, Hanuman instantly sprang to a lower branch. He dropped Ram’s ring in front of Mother Sita. Sita was very surprised to see the ring. She looked around anxiously. Holding the ring in her hand, she murmured, ‘Is this true or am […]
After Ravan had left Ashok Vatika, Hanuman could perceive that Mother Sita was in deep anguish. He began worshipping Lord Ram to grant him the strength to save Sita from Ravan’s clutches. One of Sita’s female demon guards, Trijata, was a faithful devotee of Lord Ram. She disclosed the details of a dream that she
Vibheeshan had provided Hanuman with all the details regarding Sita’s whereabouts in Lanka. He also advised him to be very careful while entering Ashok Vatika, as it was well guarded by many female demons who were loyal to Ravan. Hanuman thanked Vibheeshan and left. He reduced his size and leapt swiftly from tree to tree
When Hanuman realised Vibheeshan was a devotee of Lord Ram, he revealed his true identity. He then told him about the actual purpose of his visit. “My brother Ravan had abducted Sita from Panchvati. I had warned him that such action could destroy him as well as his clan. But he ignored me. I even
With Lankini’s assistance, Hanuman set foot in Lanka. He had made himself small enough to avoid being spotted and started walking and chanting ‘Jai Shri Ram’ all the way. Now, Hanuman was feeling quite hungry. As he was religious by nature, he could not eat whatever the demons ate. While passing by a palatial building,
Hanuman did not want to create a scene and become the centre of attraction. Or else, his mission of finding Mother Sita would be in jeopardy! “I assure you that I am here just to roam about for a while and then I will be gone!” Hanuman tried to tell Lankini. But instead of listening

After his encounter with Sursa, Hanuman resumed his journey to Lanka. Suddenly, he felt himself being pulled down! ‘Lord Ram! What is happening now? Who is dragging me down?’ he wondered. Puzzled, Hanuman looked around and realised that his shadow had been trapped in the ocean. He suddenly remembered Sugreev’s forewarning about a demoness named
Hanuman proceeded to complete his task. He was zooming over the sea, when suddenly Sursa, the huge snake demoness, obstructed his path. Sursa thundered, “O monkey! The gods must have sent you to satisfy my hunger. So, get into my mouth!” Hanuman politely requested her to allow him to complete his mission first. “When it
Motivated by Jambvan’s talk, Hanuman addressed the group. “Brothers, Lord Ram has bestowed me with special powers. I am now confident of crossing the ocean in a single leap!” he said. Everybody was overjoyed and shouted, “May you succeed in your mission! Jai Shri Ram!” Hanuman then turned himself into a gigantic size and soared
Jambvan, who was assisting the vanars along with his army of bears, suddenly realised that Hanuman was the only person who could cross the ocean successfully. He told Hanuman about the curse that had made him unaware of his powers. “O Hanuman! You are blessed with so many virtuous qualities. Nothing is beyond your capabilities.
Sampati was blessed with a sharp vision, by which he could see faraway lands and objects. He gazed across the vast ocean and gave Hanuman several valuable inputs about Lanka. He told them that Lanka was a city on Mount Trikoota by the seashore. “The city is full of lovely parks and gardens. Mother Sita
Sampati was shocked to learn about his brother Jatayu’s death. After some time, he approached Hanuman and introduced himself. “I am Sampati, Jatayu’s elder brother. I overheard you talking about him.
