Chapter - 89– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Lanka Kanda – Ravana adopted illusionary powers on the battlefield

 

The warriors of Vanaras and bears crushed the huge army of demons with the grace of Lord Sri Ramachandra, several demons were put to sleep permanently with the arrows of the Lord, the battlefield crammed with the lifeless bodies, and river of blood, headless bodies running all over the field, and the body less heads screaming “Victory! Victory!”. Ravana thought “most of my army got destroyed, I have left alone on the battlefield, but the Vanaras and bears are numerous, I have no other way to survive other than adopt the illusionary powers to keep me alive.” The deities saw the supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra stood gigantically on the battlefield, they felt troubled at heart, soon Indra delivered his grand chariot driven by the charioteer Mathali, thus the King of Kosala gladly mounted on the magnificent chariot of Lord Indra. The chariot of Indra was drawn by four highly enthusiastic horses that are youthful, stunning, imperishable and it has the speed of mind. The Vanaras and bears got extremely thrilled to watch Lord of Raghu on the magnificent chariot, they were fully charged, Ravana found the Vanaras are too annoying, began to adopt illusionary tricks on them. None of the illusionary powers struck Rama, but the Vanaras and Lakshman got influenced by it, the Varanas perceived several Ramas and Lakshmans on the battlefield and got frightened.
