VALMIKI RAMAYANA NOUN

vrm.1.1 b, a Rama" met the vanara Hanuma on the banks of Lake Pampa, and upon the word of Hanuma Rama indeed befriended Sugreeva.
vrm.1.1 "That highly dynamic Rama detailed to Sugreeva, and even to Hanuma, all that has happened from the beginning in general, and the abduction of Seetha, in particular.
vrm.1.1 "Then, upon the word of Sampati, the eagle and elder brother of Jatayu, the efficacious Hanuma leaped forth the salty ocean, which breadth wise is in a hundred Yojana s.
vrm.1.1 "On reaching the city Lanka ruled by Ravana, Hanuma has seen Seetha, where she is lodged in Ashoka gardens and meditating on Rama alone.
vrm.1.1 Hanuma" on presenting the remembrancer, an emblematic ring of Rama to Seetha, also on delineating the sad disposition of Rama to her, thus on solacing Vaidehi, he started to smash the welcome arch of that beautiful Ashoka gardens.
vrm.1.1 "On wiping out five army chiefs, seven sons of ministers, and on kneading down a gallant Rakshasa named Aksha Kumara, Hanuma had to enter into the captivity of a powerful weapon darted by Indrajit, the son of Ravana.
vrm.1.1 "Though the release from the weapon s captivity is known to him by the boon of Brahma, and though he is valiant enough to pulverise all the Rakshasas, but to see and talk to Ravana, thus to gauge the strength of enemy, Hanuma is intentionally tolerant of the Rakshasas and their making Monkey of him when they fastened him with ropes and dragged him to Ravana s court.
vrm.1.1 After an audience with Ravana Hanuma burnt that city Lanka, except where Seetha, the princess of Mithila is stationed, and then to narrate the pleasant news of locating Seetha, he again got back to Rama, for he is a great Vanara.
vrm.1.1 "That inestimable intellectual Hanuma on approaching that great souled Rama, and on performing circumambulation around him in reverence, subtly submitted that, Seen.
vrm.1.1 Rama", the truth valiant, has gone to the hermitage of Sage Bharadwaja en route, and he has also sent Hanuma to the near of Bharata beforehand.
vrm.1.3 Rama s seeing Shabari, a hermetic lady and eating fruits and tubers given by her in utmost adoration Rama s bemoaning for Seetha his sighting Hanuma at Lake Pampa.
vrm.1.3 Rama s giving his ring to Hanuma as a token for Seetha s recognition.
vrm.1.3 Hanuma s climbing Mountain Mahendra to leap over the ocean, and on the advice of the Ocean, Mountain Mainaka s coming up from under waters to give rest to Hanuma, and Hanuma s seeing that mountain are depicted.
vrm.1.3 Hanuma s killing the Rakshasi Surasa, and his seeing of Simhika, a rapacious creature of gigantic origin, which captures its prey by the shadow, and Hanuma s killing that Simhika, and his seeing the mountain of Lanka, called Mountain Trikuta, on which the state of Lanka is built, Valmiki described them all.
vrm.1.3 In night Hanuma s entry into Lanka, for being lonely his thinking over the course to search for Seetha, and his going to the liquor consumption place, and also his seeing the palace chambers of Ravana.
vrm.1.3 Hanuma s seeing Ravana, and also his seeing Pushpaka, the divine Aircraft, and in Ashoka gardens, his seeing Seetha also.
vrm.1.3 Seetha s giving her bejeweled hairslide to be shown to Rama, Hanuma s uprooting of the trees of that beautiful Ashoka gardens, thereby the Rakshasi s fleeing in scare, his killing the guards of that garden.
vrm.1.3 The capture of Hanuma, the son of Vayu, by the magical missile of Indrajit, son of Ravana, and also Hanuma s burning down Lanka, and his blaring at the Rakshasas, also his return flight from Lanka.
vrm.1.3 and on his way back Hanuma s seeing a honey garden, and the appropriation of honey.
vrm.1.3 Hanuma s action in presenting the jewel sent by Seetha solaces Raghava, and thus the meeting of Rama with the Ocean, and Nala s building the bridge on ocean.
vrm.1.3 Sending Hanuma to meet Bharata, for he avowed to self immolate if Rama were not to come in time the coronation festival of Rama disbandment of all military troops of Vanaras Rama s ruling his kingdom to the delight of his subjects, and the desolation of Vaidehi too.
vrm.1.17 The direct son of Vayu is the marvellous and adventurous Hanuma with an indestructible body, and one identical in the speed of lady Vinata s son, namely Garuda, the divine eagle vehicle of Vishnu, and among all Vanara chiefs he is the intelligent and the indefatigable one too.
vrm.1.17 b, a All of the Vanaras stood by the brothers, namely the son of Indra Vali, and the son of sun Sugreeva, and even with the Vanara generals like Nala, Neela and Hanuma et
vrm.4.2 Then Hanuma, the ablest sentence maker, said this sentence to Sugreeva who is dismayed with fear doubting Vali s mischief.
vrm.4.2 So said Hanuma to Sugreeva.
vrm.4.2 Sugreeva thus hearing entirely to all the propitious words of Hanuma spoke to Hanuma this opportune sentence, positively.
vrm.4.2 Sugreeva thus spoke to Hanuma.
vrm.4.2 Begone to them oh, Vanara Hanuma, in a commoner’s form, for your Vanara hood is distinguishable by Vali s agents, and know the intentions of those two by their conduct, by their semblance, and by their conversation, as well.
vrm.4.2 oh, best of Vanaras, Hanuma, set their face towards me alone in a compassionate manner, and you inquire about the reason of their entering this forest alone.
vrm.4.2 Thus Sugreeva said to Hanuma.
vrm.4.2 Thus this way ordered by Sugreeva, the king of Vanaras, Hanuma, the son of Vayu made up his mind to go there, where Rama and Lakshmana are.
vrm.4.2 That marvellous Vanara Hanuma agreeing for the words of that inaccessible and very much frightened Sugreeva, and on respectfully replying him saying that, ‘I will do accordingly.
vrm.4.3 Mindful of the words of noble souled Sugreeva, Hanuma took his flight from Mountain Rishyamuka to where Raghava s are
vrm.4.3 Casting off his Vanara s semblance Vayu s son Hanuma attained the persona of an ascetic, for that Vanara is incredulous in mind about Raghava s.
vrm.4.3 Then on nearing Raghava s that Hanuma voicing softly and well pleasingly like an obedient one, that best Vanara befittingly hailed, greeted and praised those two valiant ones.
vrm.4.3 The best Vanara Hanuma spoke soft wordily, as desired by Sugreeva, to those candidly resolute ones, on making reverent obeisance to both of them.
vrm.4.3 Delegated by that great soul and the king of important Vanaras Sugreeva, I have come here and by name I am Hanuma, another Vanara.
vrm.4.3 Hanuma said so to those brothers.
vrm.4.3 Hearing all those words said by Hanuma, that illustrious Rama is well pleased facially, spoke to his brother Lakshmana who is standing at his side.
vrm.4.3 Soumitri, with this minister of Sugreeva, the knower of sententiousness and a pleasant worded one, and one with friendliness you exchange pleasantries with that enemy destroyer Hanuma.
vrm.4.3 When said thus by Rama, wise worded Lakshmana spoke to that Vanara and the minister of Sugreeva, namely Hanuma, the son of Vayu, who is equally a wise worded one.
vrm.4.3 As you communicated the words of Sugreeva, oh, gentle Hanuma, by them and by your words we indeed wish to do accordingly.
vrm.4.3 On observing that operative sentence of Lakshmana the Vanara Hanuma is gladdened, as seen from his composure, and kept his mind at ease at the prospective victory, and then he wished to materialise the pact of friendship between Rama and Sugreeva, at the earliest.
vrm.4.4 Then that Hanuma, who has good deeds for his credit, on hearing the words of Lakshmana, and even knowing that they are finely meaningful, he
vrm.4.4 thus thought Hanuma.
vrm.4.4 Then Hanuma, the ablest flyer is thus very gladdened.
vrm.4.4 What for you have come into these perilous forests hemming in Pampa Lake along with your brother, for these are impenetrable forests abounding with many a serpent and animal? Thus Hanuma asked Rama.
vrm.4.4 On hearing the words of Hanuma, Lakshmana motivated by Rama, narrated about the great soul Rama, the son of Dasharatha.
vrm.4.4 With his wife Seetha following him, oh, highly fortunate Hanuma, this self controlled and highly resplendent Rama came to forests like the Sun followed by his consort Prabha, who vanishes when the day is abated.
vrm.4.4 With his wife Seetha following him, oh, highly fortunate Hanuma, this self controlled and highly resplendent Rama came to forests like sun with
vrm.4.4 Lakshmana said thus to Hanuma.
vrm.4.4 Hanuma when said thus virtuous Lakshmana adored him customarily in the way befitting to an envoy, and spoke this to Rama.
vrm.4.4 needless is telling untruths to such a valiant son of Vayu, Hanuma, isn’t it! So said Lakshmana to Rama Then he that very intelligent son of Vayu Hanuma, took those two valorous Raghava s to go to the king of Vanaras Sugreeva.
vrm.4.4 On discarding the ascetic s semblance that estimable Vanara Hanuma obtained his own Vanara s form, and mounting those two valiant ones onto his back he proceeded towards Sugreeva.
vrm.4.4 Hanuma, the extensively renowned heroic son of Vayu with pious mind and highly audacious nature, is then gladdened like the one whose difficult deed is just accomplished, thus he gladly travelled to that mountain where Sugreeva is abiding, along with Rama and Lakshmana.
vrm.4.5 Hanuma on going from Mountain Rishyamuka to Mountain Malaya, has reported to the king of Vanaras Sugreeva, about the two valiant Raghava s.
vrm.4.5 Hanuma thus advised Sugreeva.
vrm.4.5 On hearing Hanuma s words Sugreeva, the chief of Vanaras has become presentable and gladly spoke to Rama.
vrm.4.5 "You are a trained one in treading righteous path, best by your scruples, and a kindlier one to all, so said Vayu s son Hanuma to me about your attributes, in subtlety.
vrm.4.5 a Then the destroyer of enemies Hanuma discarding the guise of ascetic assumed his original Vanara form, and on producing fire with two sticks then made it to glow.
vrm.4.5 b, a Then Hanuma the son of Vayu, gladly gave a well flowered branch of sandalwood tree to Lakshmana.
vrm.4.6 Then Sugreeva who is gladdened again spoke to Rama of Raghu s dynasty, "My best minister and this servant of yours Hanuma informed me of the reason for which you have come to uninhabited forests along with your brother Lakshmana, and that while living in the forest, and when you and this courageous Lakshmana are not her alongside a Rakshasa stole your wife Maithili, the daughter of Janaka, wailing as she was.
vrm.4.8 On seeing those two sitting on a branch then Hanuma also broke a branch of sala tree for the modest Lakshmana and seated Lakshmana on it.
vrm.4.8 "Though I am engulfed in tribulations I still bear my lives even today due to these important Vanaras like Hanuma and others, who are the only helping hands of mine.
vrm.4.11 "I am moving about these forests along with earnest ministers like Hanuma and other significant ones, only because I am disconcerted and sceptical of him.
vrm.4.12 Raghava also came to that forest, along with his brother Lakshmana and along with Hanuma, where that Vanara Sugreeva fled.
vrm.4.13 The brave Hanuma, dauntless Nala and Neela, and the captain of Vanara s captains Tara of great energy followed them rearward.
vrm.4.21 Hanuma, the leader of Vanaras, then neared and slowly consoled Tara who has fallen to ground like a star from sky.
vrm.4.21 Thus spoke Hanuma to Tara.
vrm.4.21 On hearing Hanuma s words she who is tormented by the plight of her husband, that Tara replied Hanuma who is standing nearby.
vrm.4.21 "Who am I either for conducting the Vanaras kingdom or to anoint Angada when Angada s paternal uncle Sugreeva is close at hand? Hanuma", this thinking of yours that Angada is to be crowned is really untenable, oh, best Vanara, father is the real defender of a son, but not the mother.
vrm.4.26 Hanuma, the son of Vayu, whose sheen is like that of the golden mountain Meru, and whose visage is like that of the tender sun in its glint, then spoke this sentence reverently adjoining his palms.
vrm.4.26 Hanuma appealed Rama in this way.
vrm.4.26 a When Hanuma said so, Rama the destroyer of valiant foes, an intellectual and an enunciator replied Hanuma in this way.
vrm.4.26 "As a conformist to the directives of my father, oh, gentle Hanuma, I am not supposed to enter either a village or a city.
vrm.4.26 b, a Replying Hanuma thus, that knower of the etiquette Rama, also spoke to Sugreeva, who is rich in politesse and an imposing one by his might and valour.
vrm.4.26 Then, Vanara s like Gaja, Gavaksha, Gavaya, Sharabha, Gandhamadana, Mainda, Dvivida, also thus Hanuma, Jambavanta have started pouring pure water on Sugreeva, which the best vanara s have collected from the rivers flowing to east, as well as to west, from each of the sacred declivity of rivers, from every ocean, and stored in golden flasks.
vrm.4.29 On observing clear sky on which back clouds and electric charges have disappeared, on which Saarasa Birds are vibrantly bustling and delightful moonshine is coated, and even on observing him whose riches are abundant, who has slowed down in accumulating probity and prosperity from the viewpoint of rectitude, highly engrossed in the course of unvirtuous profligates, whose heart is given to undisturbed privacy, and the one who on achieving his goals and dearest longings has turned away from other pursuits, who regained his choicest wife, and gained highly covetable Lady Tara, thus, who is always indulged in females, merrymaking day in and day out on a par with Indra, which Indra will be sporting with the cohorts of Gandharva and Apsara females, thereby he who is making much of his fortune on getting rid of other problems, besides, he who reposed the activity of kingdom in his ministers, yet, who does not make eyes at those ministers as he is doubtless of the kingdom which was once disrupted from his control, because, that kingdom is looked after well by the very same ministers, as such he is wallowing in promiscuity, such as he is, seeking the presence of such a Sugreeva, king of Vanaras and an explicator, and even on winning his grace, he who is forthright regarding norms of ethics, an exceptional knower of subtleties of transactions and the rubrics of duty and time, that golden tongued Hanuma, the son of Vayu, spoke sweet words that are reasonable, heart pleasing,
vrm.4.29 pragmatic, profitable, impressive, immaculate, imperative, and impartial, and which words are also inclusive of care and concern of Hanuma, on making a determination with a belief that Sugreeva will pay heed to his words.
vrm.4.29 Thus Hanuma appealed to Sugreeva.
vrm.4.29 On hearing the words of Hanuma that are validly demonstrated on time, Sugreeva whose soldiery is substantial, took a noble decision.
vrm.4.32 On hearing the words of Angada along with those of his ministers, namely Hanuma, Plaksha, and Prabhava et al, also on knowing that Lakshmana is angered, that sensible Sugreeva stirred from seat.
vrm.4.32 While Sugreeva is saying that way, the eminent Vanara Hanuma spoke with a dint of his own expediency, from among the Vanara ministers.
vrm.4.32 Thus Hanuma spoke to Sugreeva.
vrm.4.33 On the kings way Lakshmana has seen the exquisite mansion of Angada, likewise the lavish mansions of distinction pertaining to the other vanara chiefs, namely Dvivida, Gavaya, Gavaksha, Gaja, and Sharabha, Vidyunmali, Sampati, Suuryaaksha, Hanuma, and that of the noble souled Nala, and even those of Virabahu, Subaahu, Kumuda, Sushena, Lt.
vrm.4.37 When the great souled Lakshmana spoke to Sugreeva in this way, Sugreeva spoke this word to Hanuma who is available at his side.
vrm.4.37 Oh, Hanuma, you quickly summon all of the topmost speeded vanara s by employing concessions, conciliations and the like procedures.
vrm.4.37 Sugreeva ordered Hanuma that way.
vrm.4.37 On hearing the order of Sugreeva, the king of vanara s, Hanuma, the son of Vayu has started to dispatch valorous Vanaras in all directions.
vrm.4.39 Honourable Kesari, the father of Hanuma, with his bodily gleam like that of the fibrils of lotuses and visage glittering in the gleam of nascent sun, and who is an intellectual, graceful and prominent vanara among all the vanara s, then came into view associated with thousands and thousands of armies of vanara s.
vrm.4.39 Then Hanuma appeared with a thousand crore vanara s encompassing him who in shape are like the summits of Mountain Kailasa and whose bravery is formidable.
vrm.4.41 Sugreeva, the well informed and brave lord of Vanara troops, then beckoned Angada and the other prominent vanara s who are valorous ones with full fledged dash and dare, like the son of Agni Neela, and the exceptional vanara Hanuma, the highly vigorous son of Grandparent Brahma, namely Jambavanta, also others like Suhotra, Sharaari, Sharagulma Gaja, Gavaksha, Gavaya, Sushena, Vrishabha, Mainda, Dvivida, Sushena, Gandhamadana, and the two sons of Ritual fire called Ulkaamukha, Ananga.
vrm.4.44 Sugreeva expressly broached the topic of searching Seetha with Hanuma, as Sugreeva is decidedly determined about Hanuma, because that best one among Vanaras, namely Hanuma, alone is decidedly the achiever of purpose.
vrm.4.44 The king of all the residents of forest Sugreeva is well pleased to pick and choose Hanuma for the purpose, and spoke to the venturesome son of Vayu, Hanuma.
vrm.4.44 "Oh, foremost Vanara, Hanuma, I do not foresee any impediment in your transit on land where homogenous enemies will usually obstruct one another, or in high skies where there is no foothold, thus only Birds and clouds hover there, or in the wild blue yonder where celestial bodies alone gravitate at random, nor in waters where there is no underwater movement for earthly beings, nor in the heaven, the abodes of immortals, where those immortals will not allow mortals like us to meander as we like.
vrm.4.44 "Oh, Hanuma, in you alone there are brawniness, astuteness and venturesomeness, and oh, ethicist, you conduct yourself in abidance with time, place and ethicality.
vrm.4.44 Thus Sugreeva said to Hanuma.
vrm.4.44 Raghava started pondaration when he is cognisant of the entrustment of the task to Hanuma and on cognising Hanuma as an efficient cause.
vrm.4.44 "This king of Vanaras, Sugreeva, is anywise definitive in his resolve reposed in Hanuma, and Hanuma is definitely resolute in achieving the task.
vrm.4.44 "By that reason Hanuma must have good track record of the tasks he accomplished earlier, besides, he is specifically chosen by his king.
vrm.4.44 As such, this Hanuma will certainly bring task to fruition.
vrm.4.44 Or On perusing Hanuma who is the ablest one in his endeavours, the highly resplendent Rama is immensely delighted, and his heart and senses are elated as if his purpose has been achieved.
vrm.4.44 Then that enemy inflamer Rama happily gave his ring that is shining forth with his own name engraved as sign to Hanuma, as a remembrancer for princess Seetha.
vrm.4.44 Thus, Rama spoke to Hanuma while giving his ring.
vrm.4.44 On taking the ring that foremost Vanara Hanuma kept it on his own head, and making palm fold he reverenced the feet of Rama, and then that noteworthy Vanara started off.
vrm.4.44 "Oh, highly powerful Hanuma, I rely upon your vivacity, being the best venturesome Vanara, oh, son of Vayu, showing your adventures that are not inconsequential you make happen as to how access can be gained to Janaka s daughter, Seetha.
vrm.4.44 Thus, Rama shouted at Hanuma flying in the sky.
vrm.4.45 b, a The Vanara troop commander Vinata journeyed towards the eastern direction, and the fly jumper, leader of Vanaras and Vayu s son Hanuma travelled towards southerly quarter that is once trodden by Sage Agastya, along with Lt.
vrm.4.46 "Even at Himalayas, Mountain Meru, like that at the Northern Ocean, Vali drove me back, and when the clemency from Vali, or a shelter, or even a foothold on earth was indeterminable, then Hanuma, whose prosperity is his wisdom, said a word to me.
vrm.4.46 Thus Hanuma spoke to me.
vrm.4.47 Hanuma" is high born and exceptionally mighty, oh, Sugreeva, the king of vanara s, he will ascertain about Maithili, because the son of Vayu, Hanuma, resorted to the direction in which Seetha is taken away.
vrm.4.48 Hanuma, the Vanara, quickly started along with Angada, Lt.
vrm.4.48 Arriving at a remote place with all of those powerful Vanaras, then Hanuma searched the caves and forests of Vindhya Mountains, and on their mountaintops, at impassable places, at rivers and lakes, and in stands of trees with beamy trees, also on diverse mountains, forests and trees.
vrm.4.49 Again making Mountain Vindhya as the starting point of search, those best fly jumpers, namely Hanuma and the other chieftains of vanara s, have searched all over the southern direction for Seetha.
vrm.4.50 Tara and others, the Vanara Hanuma searched the caves and thick forests of Vindhya Range.
vrm.4.50 Hanuma has searched in the caves of that kingly Mountain Vindhya, which are jammed in with Lions and Tigers, and even at the towering rapids.
vrm.4.50 Though that extensive province is indeed an unsearchable one with its impenetrable caves and forests, yet Hanuma, the son of Vayu, searched everywhere on that mountain.
vrm.4.50 b, Without pressing one another closely, yet not distancing from one another largely, Gaja, Gavaksha, Gavaya, Sharabha, Gandhamadana, also thus Mainda, Dvivida, and Hanuma, and even Jambavanta, crown prince Angada, also the forest mover Lt.
vrm.4.50 b, a The son of Vayu Hanuma whose glossiness is like that of a mountaintop and who is a mastermind in scrutinising every inscrutable forest, then spoke to all of the formidable Vanara s.
vrm.4.50 Thus Hanuma spoke to all Vanaras.
vrm.4.50 When Hanuma spoke to them thus as a kind of assurance, all those Vanaras entered the cavity and found it as a sunless or moonless cavity, enfolded in hair raising darkness.
vrm.4.50 b, a In wonderment the Vanaras stood still all over, and in the matter of her identity Hanuma asked her, "Who are you? Whose cavity is this, either? b, c Then Hanuma whose shine is similar to that of a mountain making palm fold and reverencing that aged lady asked, "Who are you? Whose is this cavity, or the mansion or these jewels? Please speak.
vrm.4.51 Thus, Hanuma on saying therein that subject, again spoke to that most reverential and sainted lady who is dressed in black Deerskin and conducting herself in probity.
vrm.4.51 Thus Hanuma is speaking to her.
vrm.4.51 Thus Hanuma requested that sainted lady.
vrm.4.51 b, a Thus when Hanuma addressed her, that sainted lady, and a blissful one in the well being of all the beings, she replied Hanuma.
vrm.4.52 Hanuma, the son of Vayu, sincerely started to narrate their episode in its pithiness on hearing her words.
vrm.4.52 Thus Hanuma spoke to that sainted lady.
vrm.4.52 When Hanuma is said that blessed word by that sainted lady in that way, that which is agreeable to propriety, then Hanuma said this sentence to her who is with an unreprovable discernment.
vrm.4.52 Thus Hanuma spoke to her.
vrm.4.52 a When Hanuma said thus that sainted lady said sentence, "I believe outgoing is impracticable for the incomers in aliveness from this cavity.
vrm.4.54 When Lt Tara whose resplendence is similar to moonshine has spoken that way, then Hanuma deemed that Angada is laying siege to that kingdom of Vanara s.
vrm.4.54 Hanuma considered Vali s son Angada indeed as having eightfold intelligence, fourfold tactics, fourteen traits.
vrm.4.54 Then Hanuma who is the scholar in all scriptures started to confederate the confidence of Angada with the present regime of Sugreeva.
vrm.4.54 Hanuma then rhetorically started to the schismatic secession of all those vanara s, who are desirous of avoiding Sugreeva and desiring a hideout, exemplifying the third ideation, namely the partition, among the four political ideations, viz.
vrm.4.54 When Hanuma made all of the vanara s to defect from Angada s idea of defecting Sugreeva, then Hanuma further overawed Angada with diverse and awesome orations containing the fourth ideation, namely the persecutory measures, employable by Sugreeva on defectors.
vrm.4.54 Thus Hanuma started to address Angada.
vrm.4.55 On hearing the polite and righteous words of Hanuma, which are just yeomanly towards Hanuma s lord, namely Sugreeva, Angada said these sentences.
vrm.4.56 On hearing the words of that gormandising bird, Angada became highly breathless and then spoke to Hanuma.
vrm.4.64 Who can capably consolidate that army of Vanaras, other than Vali s son Angada, or, other than Hanuma? None.
vrm.4.65 Then Jambavanta, the outstanding one among Vanaras started to motivate the exceptional fly jumper, and a marvellous one among all the Vanaras, and who by now is comfortably sitting abiding a lonely place, namely Hanuma.
vrm.4.66 hundreds and thousands of soldiers, then Jambavanta sad this way to Hanuma.
vrm.4.66 Oh, valiant one in the world of vanara s, being an erudite scholar among all the scriptural scholars, Hanuma, why do not you mumble something, why do you resort to a calmly loneliness.
vrm.4.66 By your brilliance and brawn, oh, Hanuma, you match up to
vrm.4.66 She who is distinguished for her unparalleled mien in the three worlds, oh, dear boy Hanuma, had to take a rebirth on earth as a Vanara who can change her form by her wish, owing to a curse.
vrm.4.66 Oh, arcane Vanara Hanuma, when Vayu said so to her, oh, ambidextrous one, your mother is gratified, and then, oh, bullish fly jumpers, your mother very well divined you in a cave.
vrm.4.66 On scrutinising that you are unhurt even after hit by Thunderbolt, oh, ablest Hanuma, the Thousand eyed Indra kind heartedly gave you a choicest boon saying that your death occurs only by your own volition.
vrm.4.66 Thereby oh, vanquisher Hanuma, you give a jump start to leap the ocean.
vrm.4.66 Hanuma, your escape velocity is indeed unalike that of all the other beings.
vrm.4.66 Oh, Hanuma, all these Vanaras are dispirited.
vrm.4.66 Thus Jambavanta persuaded Hanuma to get ready for action.
vrm.4.66 Thereafter, when the best Vanara among Vanaras, namely Jambavanta, the king of Rikshas has motivated, then that son of Vaayu, Hanuma, whose speed is familiar coupled with his irresistible enterprise, enormously increased his physique as though to gladded the army of Vanaras.
vrm.4.67 On seeing that best Vanara Hanuma, who is burgeoning to cross over the hundred Yojana ocean and who is also quickly, progressively, and stupendously maximising his body, the other Vanaras instantly shunning off their sadness, raved and rhapsodized over that staggeringly mighty Vanara, Hanuma.
vrm.4.67 and utterly astounded, and as with the people who have enthusiastically seen Narayana when He maximised His physique to tread the triad of worlds in His Trivikrama incarnation, these Vanaras too are looking at Hanuma who is now maximising his body.
vrm.4.67 Hanuma who is already an outmatching Vanara by way of his energy, has now accrued added energy obtained through the gladness derived by the way of extolment from other Vanaras, and then he impetuously lashed his tail and oversized himself.
vrm.4.67 Hanuma, the lineal son of Vayu, is now prancing about as with a lion prancing around a wide open den of a mountain.
vrm.4.67 While he is inflating the face of that clever Hanuma shone forth like a red hot frying pan and like the fumeless white hot Ritual fire.
vrm.4.67 On bestirring himself from among the Vanaras, and on reverencing the elderly Vanaras, Hanuma said this, with a spine tingling sensation in his body.
vrm.4.67 So said Hanuma to other Vanaras.
vrm.4.67 While that choicest vanara with illimitable resplendence, namely Hanuma, is roaring out his capabilities in the matter of leaping ocean on enormously increasing his physique, all the other Vanaras are stunned to stare overhead at his aggrandized form and thus they are extremely gladdened.
vrm.4.67 b On hearing the avouchment of Hanuma, which itself is an annihilator of the anguish of his kinsmen, then the king of fly jumpers Jambavanta is very much gladdened and said.
vrm.4.67 Thus Jambavanta blessed Hanuma to initiate action.
vrm.4.67 Then that tigerly Vanara Hanuma said to the forest dwelling Vanaras, Even so, in this world whosoever he might be, either animate or inanimate being, he cannot possibly bear the brunt of my bouncing.
vrm.4.67 He who is equal in valour to the Paradisiacal Mahendra, that highly energetic and grand Vanara Hanuma ambled on loftiest and towery crags of such a mountain.
vrm.4.67 When squeezed by both the arms and hands of that high souled Hanuma, that lofty mountain trumpeted, as if it is a lion paw hit
vrm.4.67 Virtually and widely bestrewn are the heaps of boulders, essentially scared are all the animals and Elephants, and actually rocked are the gigantic trees, and its rapids and waterfalls have spouted out of that mountain by the impact of foot stepping of Hanuma.
vrm.4.67 vidhyaadhara s even, that are indulged in drinking and inebriated on that mountain are forsaking those lofty cliffs of that mountain, and even the Birds are put to flight, spanking snakes are completely slouching, and rising up and falling down are the stones of that mountaintops to each step of Hanuma, and thus that colossal mountain is desolated.
vrm.4.67 And he who is an importantly brave Vanara among all the Vanaras, an eliminator of enemy stalwarts, that highly proficient, expeditious, and conscientious Hanuma, on stabilising his impulses and making soul is quite staid
vrm.5.1 After that, Hanuma, the destroyer of foes, desired to travel in the sky where Chaaranas tread, to search for Seetha, who was taken away by Ravana.
vrm.5.1 Hanuma who desired to perform a deed done by no one else, shone like a bull without any obstacles, with his stretched neck and raised head.
vrm.5.1 After that, the mighty and courageous Hanuma roamed at ease on the lawns with the hue of an emerald, which looked like still water from a distance.
vrm.5.1 The thoughtful Hanuma tread like a rampant lion, making Birds fear, uprooting trees by his breast and also killing many animals.
vrm.5.1 That great Vanara Hanuma shone like a Naga in a lake, standing on the foot of that great mountain, where many Nagas resided, which was beautifully decorated with many naturally formed mineral rocks of varied hue like black, white, red, blue, yellow and green and which was surrounded by Pannagas and Yakshas, Kinnaras, Gandharvas who were capable of assuming desired form, together with their families.

vrm.5.1 Hanuma" has decided to perform an impossible task for the sake of Rama and Vanaras and wants to obtain the other side of ocean which is hard to obtain.
vrm.5.1 Vidyadharas thus listened to the words of those great people and looked at the incomparable Hanuma, best among Vanaras, standing on the mountain.
vrm.5.1 About to fly, Hanuma jolted his tail, which was rolled into a circle from top to bottom, and which was covered with hair, just as Garuda, the king of Birds would jolt a snake.
vrm.5.1 Hanuma firmly supported his arms on the mountain surface which resembled huge iron clubs, crouched the waist and contracted his feet.
vrm.5.1 Bending shoulders and neck, that mighty and glorious Hanuma, increased his energy, strength and courage.

vrm.5.1 With a fast pace equaling that of Sun god, the tall Hanuma shone like an Elephant which increases its size when being festered by a rope.
vrm.5.1 Then Hanuma who was flying above the ocean with his body above the ocean and his shadow being immersed in the sea below, looked like a boat being driven by wind.
vrm.5.1 Whatever place Hanuma went towards on the ocean, that place became agitated due to the force of thighs.
vrm.5.1 Wind from the mighty Hanuma and the wind released from the clouds caused the ocean with a fearful sound to shake a lot.
vrm.5.1 Hanuma flew in the sky dragging along with him big waves from the ocean as though he were sprinkling them in the sky.
vrm.5.1 Hanuma with great speed crossed waves which were equal to Mount Meru and Mount Mandara, that had risen up in the sea, as if counting them.
vrm.5.1 Then the water together with clouds which was driven up by the force of Hanuma, shone like a stretched autumnal cloud in the sky.
vrm.5.1 Bhujangas living in the sea saw Hanuma flying in the sky and thought that it was Suparna.

vrm.5.1 Then, the Sun did not scorch Hanuma, the best among Vanaras, who was flying for Rama s welfare.
vrm.5.1 Sages praised the great resplendent Hanuma flying in the sky.

vrm.5.1 "You are fit to raise up after seeing the gentleness of Sri Rama, and the exile of Seetha, and the effort of Hanuma.
vrm.5.1 Hanuma on seeing the mountain which stood before Him, rising up from the middle of the salty ocean suddenly, decided that it as an obstacle.
vrm.5.1 That great Vanara Hanuma with a great speed, brought that great tall mountain with His chest just as the God of wind would a cloud.
vrm.5.1 That best among mountains Mainaka, thus being fell down by that Hanuma, recognized Hanuma s speed and lauded him with pleasure.
vrm.5.1 Mount Mainaka with love and with gladdened heart obtained a human form and standing on its own peak, spoke these words approaching that courageous Hanuma in the sky.
vrm.5.1 ""After flying a hundred Yojanas, let this Hanuma rest on your peak and then travel the rest of distance.
vrm.5.1 Hanuma listening to the best mountain s words, spoke thus "I am happy.
vrm.5.1 The courageous Hanuma saying thus, touched the mountain with His hand, entered the sky and flew on with a smile.
vrm.5.1 That Hanuma was thus seen with great respect by the ocean and the mountain, and also worshipped with suitable blessings.

vrm.5.1 Hanuma also leaped over that part of the ocean in an instant.
vrm.5.1 "This glorious son of Vayu, going by the name of Hanuma is flying over the ocean.
vrm.5.1 That Goddess Surasa, thus spoken to by Devas and also being respected by them, wearing a horrible disfigured appearance of a Rakshasa in the middle of the ocean which caused fear to all, and stopping Hanuma who was flying, spoke these words.

vrm.5.1 Thus being spoken to by Hanuma, Surasa with power to take desired form, spoke thus: "No one can overcome me.
vrm.5.1 Mother of Nagas, Surasa, desiring to know the strength of Hanuma, spoke these words on seeing Him going away.
vrm.5.1 speaking thus, with quickness she opened her wide mouth and stood before Hanuma.
vrm.5.1 Then Hanuma speaking thus to Surasa, became angry and became ten Yojanas long and ten Yojanas wide.
vrm.5.1 Seeing Hanuma, who looked like a cloud, being ten Yojanas long, Surasa also made her mouth twenty Yojanas long.
vrm.5.1 Thereafter, Hanuma got angry and became thirty Yojanas long.

vrm.5.14 Seeing Hanuma running in all directions and being in the middle of trees, all living creatures thought Him to be Vasanta, the lord of spring.

vrm.5.17 The Vanara Hanuma saw that Seetha with great beauty with black eyes, covered by a cloth which was creased and dirty, with eyes of a deer, with a pitiful face, not depressed due to the brilliance of her husband, protected by her own character.
vrm.5.17 Hanuma became happy on seeing Seetha with eyes of a fawn, fearful like a she deer, seeing trees with young shoots, as though being burnt by sighs, like a bundle of grief, with a wave of sorrow risen up.
vrm.5.17 Hanuma the son of Vayu on seeing Seetha that Seetha like the goddess earth, with well divided body parts shining eve without ornaments, obtained great joy.
vrm.5.17 Hanuma on seeing Seetha there with intoxicating eyes shed tears of joy and also paid obeisance to Sri Rama.

vrm.5.18 That Hanuma heard Vedic sounds early in the morning of Brahma Rakshasas well versed in six parts of Vedas and those who performed excellent sacrifices.
vrm.5.18 Thereafter that Hanuma, the son of Marut heard the sound of waist bands and the sound of anklets of those excellent women.
vrm.5.18 Hanuma the Vanara saw that Ravana also, performer of deeds without an equal, with unfathomable might and virility, reaching the entrance region.
vrm.5.18 Wettened by fragrant oil, being carried in front of Ravana, Hanuma saw Ravana being shone in all directions by many lamps.
vrm.5.18 Hanuma saw Ravana together with lust, vanity and intoxication, with wide red eyes which were slanted, like the god of love in person with bow kept at a distance.
vrm.5.18 Hanuma saw Ravana playfully readjusting his excellent upper garment with the luster of churned nectar froth, without stain,slipping being entangled in armlet.
vrm.5.18 Hanuma blended in a branch full of leaves covered by groups of leaves and flowers started to see that Ravana as though coming near Him.

vrm.5.18 The son of god of wind Vanara Hanuma of great brilliance thinking thus "This long armed one is Ravana", jumped down.

vrm.5.24 That Vanara Hanuma not talking and hiding in the Simsupa tree listened to those Rakshasa women frightening Seetha.
vrm.5.30 The valiant Hanuma also heard truly all those words of Seetha, Trijata and the threatening words of the female Rakshasas.
vrm.5.30 Thereafter, seeing that Seetha as a divine lady in the garden of Nandana, Hanuma echoed his thought in various ways.
vrm.5.30 "How does not my work get spoiled? How should I avoid my feebleness? Also how does not my leaping across the sea become vain?" "How can Seetha hear my words without fear?" Thinking in this way, the wise Hanuma made up his mind as follows: "If I eulogize Rama, who is unwearied in action and a good relation, I shall not frighten her, whose mind is directed towards that relation.
vrm.5.31 Thus reflecting on many kinds of thought, Hanuma spoke the following sweet words within the hearing range of Seetha.
vrm.5.31 Having spoken these words, Hanuma kept quiet.
vrm.5.32 Then, seeing Hanuma, who was tawny coloured like a series of flashing thunderbolts wrapped up in a white cloth and hiding behind the branches of a tree, Seetha had her mind shaken.
vrm.5.32 As soon as seeing Hanuma Seetha lost her consciousness very much and became seemingly lifeless.
vrm.5.33 That Hanuma, with coral coloured face, very bright, the son of Marut, wearing a humble and feeble look, approached Seetha by stepping down from the tree and offered her his salutation by keeping his joined palms on his head and spoke the following sweet words:
vrm.5.33 Hearing his words, Seetha was delighted of Rama s mention and spoke the following words to Hanuma, who was dwelling on a tree.
vrm.5.34 Hearing those words of Seetha who was overthrown from one grief to another, Hanuma the best of Vanaras gave the following reply in a kindly and affectionate manner.
vrm.5.34 Hearing that news of welfare of Rama and Lakshmana the excellent of men, the divine lady, with all her limbs thrilled with joy, spoke to Hanuma as follows: Joy rushes to surviving man even though it be as the end of a hundred years this popular adage appears true and and auspicious for me.
vrm.5.34 Seetha showed wonderful friendly disposition towards Hanuma who approached her.
vrm.5.34 Hearing that reply of Seetha who was afflicted with grief, Hanuma the army chief of Vanaras endeavoured to draw nearer to her.
vrm.5.34 In as much as that Hanuma drew nearer to her, in the same way, that Seetha suspected him as Ravana.
vrm.5.34 Seeing Seetha afflicted with grief and deluded with fear, the great armed Hanuma also then simply saluted her.
vrm.5.34 Seetha, with her countenance resembling the moon, seeing Hanuma saluting her, had a deep sigh and spoke to Hanuma in a sweet sounding voice as follows "If you are Ravana, who made use of an illusive guise and yourself a conjurer, you are causing me a further agony.
vrm.5.34 Understanding the contemplation of Seetha, Hanuma the son of Vayu then brought about a great joy in her with his words most favourable to her ears as follows:
vrm.5.34 "I am a Vanara, the minister of Sugreeva, called Hanuma.
vrm.5.35 Hearing that narration about Rama from Hanuma the excellent of
vrm.5.35 Vanaras, Seetha in a sweet voice spoke the following gentle words: Where was your contact with Rama? How do you know Lakshmana? How did the union between Vanaras and men arise? O Hanuma! What are the characteristics of Rama and Lakshmana? Narrate them to me, so that sorrow will not take possession of me again.
vrm.5.35 Hearing the words of Seetha, Hanuma, the son of Marut, then started to describe Rama according to his actual state as follows:
vrm.5.35 Know me as Hanuma, who came here as a messenger on behalf of both of them.
vrm.5.35 By my activity alone, I am renowned as Hanuma in this world.
vrm.5.35 Seetha considered Hanuma clearly as a Vanara and not otherwise.
vrm.5.35 Thereafter Hanuma replied to her who is pleasant to the sight as follows O Seetha! I told you indeed all this please be consoled.
vrm.5.36 Hanuma, the highly energetic son of Vayu, with an inducement to obtain confidence from Seetha, again modestly spoke the following words: O illustrious lady! I am a Vanara and a messenger of the wise Rama.
vrm.5.36 Uttering delightful words, she praised Hanuma the great Vanara as follows: O Hanuma the best of Vanaras! You have singly overpowered this place infested by Rakshasas.
vrm.5.36 Is Rama the prince wishing the grace of the Gods? Is he equally aware of the role of human endeavour and the role of fate? O Hanuma! Is Rama not losing affection in me because of my staying away from home? Will he release me from this evil predicament?
vrm.5.36 O Hanuma the messenger! I wish to survive only as long as I hear the activity of my
vrm.5.36 Uttering thus those greatly meaningful and sweetly worthwhile words, Seetha the princess further abstained from talking so as to hear Hanuma s delightful words describing the matters pertaining to Rama.
vrm.5.36 Hearing Seetha s words, Hanuma of terrific prowess, keeping his joined palms on his head, spoke the following words in reply.
vrm.5.37 Hearing Hanuma s words, Seetha whose face resembled the full moon, spoke the following words braced with justice and utility, to Hanuma.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma! The words spoken by you viz.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma the best of Vanaras! For living beings, destiny is surely irresistible.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma! Out of the time limit given to me by the cruel Ravana for my survival, the tenth month is now running.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma! Nala, the eldest maiden daughter of Vibhishana, when she was sent personally to me by her mother, told me about this.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma the excellent of Vanaras! Rama, my husband, will soon regain me without any doubt.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma! In Rama are figured, pesseverence, manliness, courage, non mischievousness, gratitude, prowess and energy.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma! The powerful Rama like the sun, with his multitude of ray like arrows, will dry up the water in the form of hostile adversaries.
vrm.5.37 Hanuma spoke the following words to Seetha, who was thus talking with grief for Rama and with her eyes full of tears.
vrm.5.37 Hearing those astonishing words from Hanuma, Seetha with her entire limbs flowered with joy, thereafter spoke to Hanuma as follows: "O Hanuma! How are you wishing to carry me for such a long distance? O chief of Vanaras! I consider this indeed as your apishness!"
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma the best of Vanaras! With such a small seized body, how do you wish to take me from here to the presence of my husband, Rama the Lord of human beings?" Hearing the words of Seetha, the illustrious Hanuma, the son of Marut thought it to be the first insult was caused to him.
vrm.5.37 Hanuma said to himself "The black eyed Seetha is not aware of my strength or power.
vrm.5.37 Hanuma, the best of Vanaras and the annihilator of enemies, thinking in this way, then showed his peculiarity to Seetha.
vrm.5.37 Hanuma, the intelligent and the excellent of Vanaras, leaped down from that tree and then, to create confidence in Seetha, started to increase his body form.
vrm.5.37 Hanuma, the foremost of Vanaras, flashed like Meru and Mandara mountains, shining brightly like a blazing fire.
vrm.5.37 The mighty Hanuma, resembling a mountain, having a red face, having teeth and nails as hard as adamant and terrific in appearance, spoke the following words to Seetha.
vrm.5.37 Seetha, with her large eyes resembling lotus petals, spoke to that terrific Hanuma, the son of Marut as follows
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma the annihilator of enemies! It is not possible for me to go with you.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma the long armed! The survival of the high souled Rama, his brothers, of yourself and of your royal family of Sugreeva is dependent on me.
vrm.5.37 "O Hanuma, the best of Vanaras! Honouring the devotion to my husband, I cannot touch the body of any man other that of Rama.
vrm.5.38 Hearing those words of Seetha, the eloquent Hanuma was very much pleased and spoke to Seetha as follows: "O Seetha, the beautiful princess! Whatever you spoke is befitting.
vrm.5.38 Hearing Hanuma s words, Seetha like the daughter of a god, slowly spoke the following words, strung together with alphabets of tears: "You tell this following excellent thing as a token of remembrance to my beloved husband.
vrm.5.38 Hearing the pitiable appeal Seetha with tears, Hanuma of great splendour and the son of Vayu spoke as follows "O Seetha! Rama has grown averse to everything else, caused by grief towards you.
vrm.5.38 Hearing the words of Hanuma, Seetha, like the daughter of a sage, tormented with grief, spoke to Hanuma the Vanara as follows:
vrm.5.38 "O Hanuma, the excellent of Vanaras and the best of Vanaras! you are the model for fulfilling this act of addressing him in such a way that Lakshmana, the mild, every pure and clever darling of Rama may bring my sorrows to an end.
vrm.5.38 Then, untying the bright devine jewel for her head tied in her garment, Seetha gave it to Hanuma, saying that it might be handed over to Rama.
vrm.5.38 Taking the excellent jewel, the valiant Hanuma thereupon fitted it to his finger, since his arm eventhough he had assumed his former tiny form, was not fitting to it properly.
vrm.5.38 Receiving that jewel, Hanuma the best among the Vanaras, offered his salutation to seetha, by engaging himself in circumambulation and stood aside with humbleness.
vrm.5.38 Filled with a great delight, born out of Seetha s discovery by him, that Hanuma mentally sought the presence of Rama but stood there with just his physical body.
vrm.5.38 Taking that excellent and highly venerable jewel, worn by Seetha and by its influence resembling one who was shaken by a blast coming from the top of a huge mountain, Hanuma was mentally pleased and set out for crossing the ocean in his return journey.
vrm.5.39 Then, after giving the jewel for head, Seetha spoke to Hanuma as follows: "This token of remembrance is actually known to Rama.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma the excellent among Vanaras! Driven by your enthusiasm again, think what remains to be done in undertaking this task.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma the best among Vanaras! You are capable of fulfilling this task.
vrm.5.39 O Hanuma! Become the one who can remove my misfortunes, by employing your effort.
vrm.5.39 That Hanuma of terrific prowess, having promised so be it offered salutation to Seetha by bowing his head to her and was set off to go.
vrm.5.39 Getting to know Hanuma ready to set out, Seetha the princess spoke the following words with her voice choked by tears.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma, the excellent among Vanaras! Ask about the welfare of both Rama and Lakshmana together.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma! Tell, in whatever manner, by which the illustrious Rama can console me, even while I am still surviving.
vrm.5.39 Hearing the words of Seetha, Hanuma the son of Vayu, having placed his open hands side by side, slightly shallowed on his head in salutation, spoke the following words in reply.
vrm.5.39 Hearing those words of Hanuma, spoken rightly and truly well, Seetha held him in great respect and proceeded to speak the following words:
vrm.5.39 Thereupon, looking again and again towards that Hanuma who was going away, Seetha kind heartedly adored his words endowed with friendliness for her husband.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma! Because of your vicinity, there may be a relief for a moment to this great sorrow of me, who is less fortunate.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma the lion among the Vanaras! If after that, there is any doubt about your return, there is a doubt even for my survival too.
vrm.5.39 O Hanuma! To me, who is tormented by one grief after another grief, my sorrow due to your disappearance will further torment me, like a burning flame.
vrm.5.39 "O Hanuma the annihilator of hostile enemies! You, as one alone, is capable of fulfilling this task.
vrm.5.39 Hearing those words, which were meaningful humble and attended with reason, Hanuma gave his final reply as follows "O Seetha the princess! Sugreeva, the Lord of the troops of Vanaras and Rikshas and the premost among the Vanaras, who is endowed with strength, is firmly determined in your cause.
vrm.5.39 Thus consoling Seetha, Hanuma the son of Vayu made up his mind to go back and spoke to Seetha again as follows: "That Rama the annihilator of enemies, who firmly decided to destroy his adversaries and Lakshmana wielding a bow in his hand will soon reach the entrance of Lanka and you will see them.
vrm.5.40 Hearing the words of that high souled Hanuma, Seetha who resembled the daughter of god, spoke the following words beneficial to herself.
vrm.5.40 "O Hanuma! Seeing you speaking pleasant words, I am as overjoyed, as a field with half sprouted crop of grain is thrilled by receiving a rain.
vrm.5.40 "O Hanuma the excellent one among the troops of Vanaras! Present the story of the blade of grass called Ishika hurled with anger and thereby one eye of the crow destroyed by Rama as a signal remembrance.
vrm.5.40 Hearing the words of Seetha, spoken pitiably with tears, Hanuma the son of Vayu, with a great splendour, spoke as follows: "O Seetha the princess! Rama has grown averse to everything else, caused by grief towards you.
vrm.5.40 Taking that excellent jewel, the illustrious Hanuma, the best among Vanaras, offered salutation to Seetha by bowing his head and has set off to go.
vrm.5.40 Seeing that Hanuma, the best among Vanaras, possessed of energy to jump up with great speed and expanding, Seetha spoke as follows in her voice choked with tears and looking miserable in her face filled with tears.
vrm.5.40 "O Hanuma! Enquire about the welfare of Rama and Lakshmana, the brothers looking like Lions, of Sugreeva together with his ministers and of all other.
vrm.5.40 Have a happy journey! Having been appraised of the matter by Seetha the princess, having accomplished his object, having his mind filled with joy and having perceived that only a little remained to be done, Hanuma intellectually sought the northern direction.
vrm.5.41 Seetha honoured Hanuma, who was ready to go, with good words.
vrm.5.41 Hanuma, having gone to a distance from that place, thought within himself as follows: "I have seen this black eyed Seetha.
vrm.5.41 Thereafter, Hanuma of terrific prowess, getting angry, started then to throw away trees by a highly violent jerk of his thighs akin to the jerk of a wind.
vrm.5.41 Then, the valiant Hanuma laid waste the royal garden attached to the gynaecium resonant with cries of Birds in heat and endowed with various kinds of trees and creepers.
vrm.5.41 Hanuma damaged trees in that grove, destroyed the ponds and crushed the tops of pleasure hills to powder.
vrm.5.41 "That woody land of that pleasure garden which afforded shelter to the women folk of Ravana and which has clusters of Ashoka creepers became a jumble of creepers of sorrow for the distressed women by the violence of Hanuma.
vrm.5.41 Creating a great displeasure to the mind of that high souled Ravana, the Lord of the land of Lanka that Hanuma decided to fight alone against many mighty Rakshasas and stayed
vrm.5.42 Seeing those female Rakshasas, the mighty armed Hanuma endowed with a great courage and might, assumed a gigantic form which created a terror to the female Rakshasas.
vrm.5.42 Ravana, with a great splendour, sent Rakshasas with a valiance equal to him, called Kinkaras, in order to catch hold of Hanuma.
vrm.5.42 All those mighty Kinkaras with their large bellies, long tusks and terrible forms, longing to fight with iron mallets and clubs in hand, in eagerness to lay hold on Hanuma, started from that place.
vrm.5.42 Approaching Hanuma who was standing near the arched doorway, they rushed towards him with a great speed, like locusts rushing towards a fire.
vrm.5.42 They banged Hanuma with various kinds of maces, iron bludgeons plated with gold and arrows shining like the sun.
vrm.5.42 Quickly surrounding Hanuma with clubs, sharp edged spears, iron pikes, lances, javelins and swords, they stood in front of him.
vrm.5.42 The highly splendorous and illustrious Hanuma too, looking like a mountain, hurled his tail on the ground, making a thunderous noise.
vrm.5.42 The highly splendourous and illustrious Hanuma too, looking like a mountain, hurled his tail on the ground, making a thunderous noise.
vrm.5.42 By that great sound made by Hanuma through clapping on his arms together with a resound, Birds fell down from the sky.
vrm.5.42 Hanuma also then cried aloud with a clamorous voice as follows: "Long live the mighty Rama and the powerful Lakshmana! Long live the King Sugreeva, protected by Rama!"
vrm.5.42 "I am Hanuma, the destroyer of the army of adversaries and the son of Vayu.
vrm.5.42 Those Rakshasas became frightened by the clamorous voice of Hanuma cried aloud and saw him to be as high as a twilight rain cloud.
vrm.5.42 Not feeling apprehended because of the orders of their king, those Rakshasas thereafter rushed towards Hanuma, with their terrific and amazing weapons.
vrm.5.42 Surrounded on all sides by those strong Rakshasas, that Hanuma endowed with a great strength seized a huge iron bar belonging to the arched gate.
vrm.5.42 Taking that iron rod, Hanuma killed the Rakshasas.
vrm.5.42 That violent Hanuma strolled in the sky, taking that Iron rod in his hand, as Garuda would carrying a serpent in its claws.
vrm.5.42 Killing the valiant Rakshasas called Kinkaras, that heroic Hanuma wishing to fight again, arrived at the archy gate way.
vrm.5.43 After killing the Kinkaras, that Hanuma thought to himself as follows: "The grove was damaged by me.
vrm.5.43 Thus thinking himself, Hanuma the best among Vanaras, son of the wind god having large jaws, by showing his strength, bounced up and ascended the lofty palatial mansion of the sanctuary, which was as high as a mountain top of Meru.
vrm.5.43 That Hanuma, an army chief of Vanaras, possessing a very great splendour, ascending the lofty palatial mansion similar to a mountain shone like a second rising sun.
vrm.5.43 Overpowering the lofty and inviolable of the sanctuary, Hanuma blazing mansion his splendour, meta morposed into a towering sized body equal to that of Pariyatra mountain.
vrm.5.43 Enhancing his body to a very big size by dint of his distinction, Hanuma clapped on his arms strongly, filling the City of Lanka with sound.
vrm.5.43 "Long live Rama, skilled in archery and the powerful Lakshmana! Long lie the King Sugreeva, protected by Rama! I am Hanuma, the destroyer of the army of adversaries and the son of Vayu.
vrm.5.43 Those Kinkaras with huge bodies surrounded Hanuma, duly discharging those weapons.
vrm.5.43 They banged Hanuma with various kinds of maces, iron bludgeons plated with gold and arrows shining like the sun.
vrm.5.43 That troop of Rakshasas surrounding Hanuma the best among Vanaras, shone like a greatly extensive whirlpool in the waters of River Ganga.
vrm.5.43 Thereupon, the enraged Hanuma assumed a terrific form.
vrm.5.43 Hanuma possessing a gigantic body and the son of wind god, uprooting a pillar with a hundred edges and decorated with gold in that edifice, then speedily whirled it around.
vrm.5.43 Seeing the edifice burning, that Hanuma killing those hundred Rakshasas, like Indra killing Rakshasas with his thunderbolt and gloriously staying in the sky, spoke the following words: Thousands" of Vanaras like me, possessing gigantic bodies of strength, were sent on the orders of Sugreeva.
vrm.5.44 Seeing him, arriving by a chariot yoked with Donkeys, that Hanuma who was endowed with swiftness, was thrilled with joy and made a noise too.
vrm.5.44 The long armed Jambumali transfixed sharp arrows into that great Vanara, Hanuma who was standing on the top of the archy door way.
vrm.5.44 He transfixed Hanuma the leader of Vanaras in the face with an arrow with a crescent shaped head, on the head with an arrow having an ear shaped top and in the arms with ten steel arrows.
vrm.5.44 That crimson face of Hanuma, hit by an arrow, shone like a full blown lotus touched by a sun s ray in autumn.
vrm.5.44 That face of Hanuma, which was naturally crimson in colour, smeared with blood, beamed like a large lotus in the sky sprinkled with drops of sandal.
vrm.5.44 Hanuma, struck by those arrows, was enraged with that Rakshasa and then saw by his side, a big rock of a very large measure.
vrm.5.44 Uplifting that rock with strength, the athletic Hanuma hurled it with force.
