Chapter – 7 – Sundara
Kandam
Hanuman produced a deafening
voice that shattered the fetus of the female demons; he took a giant leap
across that vast ocean and reached on the other side of the ocean. The army of
Vanaras, Angadha, and Jambadha recognized the energetic voice of Hanuman, they
enthusiastically rushed to him, and they appreciated him and produced loud
gibbering sounds in extreme happiness. They felt that they have attained
re-birth, watching the most pleasing and effulgence physique of Hanuman, guessed
that he has returned after accomplishing the task of Ramachandra, they all
felt extremely cheerful like the fishes take pleasure in the freshwaters of
the rain, that was out of water in muddy lands. Thus, they have happily
proceeded to Mount Prashravana to inform Ramachandra about the situation of
Devi Sita. In the meantime, they took great pleasure in the Madhuvana, the
pleasure garden of Sugriva was taken care of by his Mathula/father-in-law. They entered into that beautiful garden and
took jubilation in the consumption of nectar-like fruits, and destroyed the
trees and plants, the guides who were in charge of the garden surrounded
Angadha and his army was beaten and wounded badly. They informed Sugriva about
the pathetic state of the Madhuvana, and the atrocities of the army led by
crown prince Angada. Sugriva was highly pleased to listen to the return of the army of
Angadha, he guessed they must have fulfilled the task of Prabhu, otherwise, they
won’t return to Kingdom or show courage to destroy the pleasure garden.
The army led by Angadha,
with Hanumana and Jambavan, arrived to meet Sugriva, they prostrated before the
Vanararaja, he received them affectionately and enquired about their welfare,
Angadha spoke “Oh! Rajan, we are pleased to present before you, all the events
took place appropriately with the grace of Lord Rama, Oh! Natha, Hanuman
performed a huge task and protected all the Vanaras.” Sugriva embraced them
and took them to meet Raghava. Rama was extremely happy to watch Vanaras and
Vanararaja understood they must have accomplished the task. The two brothers
were seated on the crystal rock; all those Vanaras prostrated before Rama and
Lakshmana and took a seat before them obediently. He embraced all the Vanaras and
enquired their welfare was replied “Oh! Prabho, We are happy to take shelter
at your lotus feet.”
Jambavan spoke “Oh! Prabho,
listen to me, whoever attains your grace and compassion, are extremely fortunate ones and happy, all
the deities, Devatas, Manushya, and Rishis get highly pleased on them, he would
remain successful, virtuous and humble, his fame would spread in the three
worlds. Oh! Prabho, everything worked the way you have desired, with your
grace. We have attained fruitfulness of our lives; the fortune of Vayuputhra is
indescribable, even with the thousand tongues.” Jambavan described the various
amusements of Hanuman in the city of Lanka.
The Supreme Lord, who is
Kripanidhi embraced Hanuman again and again with extreme happiness and spoke
“Oh! Dear one, Oh! Thatha, how is Janaki? How did she protect her Prana?” Hanuman
spoke “Oh! Prabho, your sacred names protecting Devi Janaki during the day and
night, the mediation upon you are the safe doors to protect her, she has fixed
her gaze on her feet, she has not found any way to protect herself. Devi gave me
Choodamani/hair ornament while I was returning.” Hanuman offered that marvelous
Choodamani to Raghava, he kept it close to his chest and shed tears, Hanuman
conveyed the message of Devi Janaki “Oh! Prabho, Oh! Pranatharththihari, who
removes the grief and sufferings of the people surrendered at your lotus feet,
I have devoted to your feet with words, mind, and actions. Oh! Prabho why did
you abandon me? I have not left the Prana the moment I got separated from you;
it was my sin, Oh! Prabho, it was the problems of my eyes, it blocked my Prana.
The pain of separation from you torturing me like burning fire, and my breaths
are like Vayu that enhances the flame, my body is like the cotton between that
fire and air, and my eyes are constantly shedding tears of separation from you,
and it protecting this body not to burn alive.” Hanuman spoke “Oh! Prabho, Oh!
Deenadhayalo, it is fair not to describe the pain of separation of Devi
Sita, Oh! Karunanidhi, she is feeling every second as Yuga, therefore Oh!
Prabho, kindly leave to Lanka with the army of multitudes of Vanaras, show your
prowess to the wicked enemies and protect Devi Sita.”
Prabhu who is supreme
bliss, the lotus-like his eyes filled in tears of separation from Devi Sita and
her sufferings in Lanka, he spoke “Oh! Vayuputhra, do you think that the people
who have taken shelter at me, with their deeds, mind, and action, will undergo
afflictions?” Hanuman replied “Oh! Prabho, there are no afflictions horrendous
than forgetting you and not contemplating or shelter in you. Those demons are
not at all a threat to you, and you will definitely destroy the entire clan of
demons and protect Devi Sita.” Rama spoke “Oh! Hanuman, there is no one
promising as you in the deities, humans, Munishwaras, how did I express my
gratitude to you. Oh! Thatha, I cannot pay off for the afflictions and
struggles you have gone through to locate Devi Sita.” The protector of deities kept looking at Hanuman in extreme compassion and shed tears of joy. Hanuman
looked at that Prabhu, and transported to the state of ecstasy and sincerely
prayed “Oh! Bhagavan kindly protects me from ‘Ahamkara’ and ‘Mamakara’” and
falls at the feet of Lord Ramachandra. He did not rise from the feet of
Prabhu, even though Prabhu made all efforts to raise him from the feet. Hanuman
was in a deep state of devotion, Prabhu rested his hands on his head.
Eventually, Gaureesha transported to the supreme state of bliss remembering
those moments, became emotional, shortly he regained the normal state and
continued to narrate the legend of Rama.
