Chapter - 73– Sri Ramacharitha Manas –
Lanka Kanda – The vicious battle between Lord Rama and Indhrajeeth
Meghanatha mounted on a magnificent chariot,
wielded in various weapons, arrived on the battlefield, gave out a loud roar
and deafening laugh revealing his presence, which struck terror among the
Vanaras and bears. Meghanatha hurled several vicious weapons which were difficult
to name against the Vanaras and bears, and the entire battlefield crammed
with the powerful arrows from his bow, resembled the heavy rain cloud in the
month of Bhadrapada, the battlefield reverberated with the shrieks and cries
of ‘seize him! Kill him!’, but no one knew what was happening amidst the
darkness, the Vanaras hurled huge mountains and rocks on the battleground and
flew on the air. In the meantime, Meghanatha used his illusionary powers and
packed the valleys, mountains, and pathways crammed with the arrows. The Vanaras
were confused without the knowledge of where to run, the multitudes of arrows
on the pathways resembled a prison, the mighty Vanaras, Angadha, Hanuman, Nala,
and Neela startled at the sight of the pathways. Indhrajeeth showered arrows on
Lakshman, Sugrivah, and Vibheeshana that pierced their bodies, then he
confronted Lord of Raghu, the arrows released by Indrajeeth were turned into serpents
and attacked Rama. The Supreme Lord who is absolute Bhramam, omnipresent,
omnipotent, and omniscient, free from impurities, impenetrable, unconquerable,
was besieged with the Nagapasha. The Supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra performed a
role of an ordinary human, in order to reveal the glory of Asthrashathra, the
Lord allowed himself to be bound by the Nagapasha/snare of serpents, the
deities were startled watching the Almighty Lord Sri Ramachandra’s amiability.
