Ravana wielded on ten bows on each pair of hands, showered arrows that flew like serpents on the air, soon the arrows crammed on the Earth, and the eight quarters leaving no space to run for the Vanaras and bears who were cried in panic “Oh ! Prabho, Sri Ramachandra, Oh! Karunasindhu, Oh! Raghuveera, Oh! Arththabandhu, Oh! Janarakshaka, Oh! Hare,” listening to the pathetic cries of Vanaras and bears, Lakshman wielded on bow and arrow bowed his head to Lord Rama, and hurried in extreme fury to the battlefield. Lakshman shrieked at Ravana “Oh! Wicked demon, you are aiming at the Vanaras and bears, look at me I am your death standing before your eyes.” Ravana yelled back “Oh! Hermit, I was looking for you all days, slayer of my son, today I will pacify my heart by killing you.” Thus, Ravana showered arrows on Lakshman was cut into several pieces with the powerful arrows. Soon Ravana hurled several thousands of vicious weapons on Lakshman was torn into pieces exactly the size of sesame seeds. Lakshman aimed at the Ravana’s charioteer and the chariot and crushed them into pieces, and each of the ten heads of Ravana was transfixed with hundreds of arrows, resembled the serpents darting to their way back to mountains. Lakshman shot hundreds of arrows on the chest of Ravana, which toppled him on the ground with a large thud and lost consciousness. Soon, Ravana regained consciousness and hurled the Asthra bestowed by Lord Bhrama.
