Chapter – 20– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Aranya Kanda– Khara, Dhooshana, Thrishirass, and the multitudes of the army of demons got killed in the battle with Rama

 

The jackals and vultures sprang all around the battlefield, the spirits, Boothagans, Yogini danced in merriment taking pleasure in the blood seeping through the bodies and heads, Ramabana tore the bodies of enemies into pieces, the warrior gathered courage again and again cried to seize Rama, and fought against Rama in vain. The vultures flew away with their piece of meat all over the field, the lifeless bodies spread all over the battlefield. Thus, most of the army of demons of Khara, Dhooshana, and Thrishiras were killed on the battlefield, finding the army in distress, the leaders rushed to fight against Rama. The demons hurled various weapons like spears, daggers, swords, arrows, clubs on Rama were destroyed in the blink of eyes, and in return showered arrows upon the enemies that ripped off their chest, they fell on the ground with a large thud and again rose on their feet, in this way, the demons played several illusionary tricks on Rama. The deities were alarmed to watch the fierce battle that took place with the Lord of Raghu, Rama alone fought against the fourteen thousand demons. The compassionate Lord of Maya, Mayapathi found the deities and Sages are frightened, soon he performed a miracle, the demons perceived each other as Rama, and fought between themselves fiercely and killed, thus the entire army of demons was destroyed.
