Chapter – 163– Sri Ramacharitha Manas –
Bala Kanda – The hermit’s close association with the demon Kalakethu
The hermit continued “Oh! Rajan, I will be
in your palace in the guise of your family priest, will make sure to recollect
all those conversations that took place between us.” Thus, the King went to sleep,
and the Sage did not move an inch from his seat, was restless and anxious. King
Prathapbhanu was so tired of a long journey in the dense wood, hence easily
slipped off to deep sleep, but the mendicant could not get peace of mind, as he
was disturbed by the cluster of thoughts, planning, and plotting, etc. Soon, the
demon Kalakethu who was a great companion of the Sage, has possessed great
skills in illusionary powers, had assumed the form of a wild boar and appeared
before King Prathapbhanu, and led him into the dense forest, was present before
the Sage and stood before him obediently. The demon Kalakethu has hundreds of
sons and ten brothers of equivalent might, who were possessed great illusionary
powers, harassed the deities and holy men. These are the Kshatriyas who fought
against King Prathapbhanu, took birth as demons who were already killed on a
battlefield by King Prathpbhanu, to put an end to their atrocities against
the twice-born, deities, and saints, further they have attained the form of
demons for their wickedness. The hermit achieved great association with these
haughty demons, was waiting for an opportunity to retaliate against King
Prathapbhanu who was fast asleep in his hermitage.
