Sugreeva Sends Anjhaneya
Sugreeva seeing these two great Valorous persons duly armed with best of Weapons and were emanating Dazlling Aura was un settled and was looking askance in all directions. The Vanara Athipathi (Lord of Vanaras( Ape men-Gorrilas- Godzillas- Orangutans-Chimpanzees- Apes- Monkey Lon gtailed, yellow eyed- red mouth- pink ,Grey,Black coloured- small – big sized –Learned- playfull all types of Monkey clan) Sugreeva who was an exponent on Raja Dharma (Righteous Governance of Kingdom) was deeply anguished said “ Is it wise to stay here? Or is it better to run away from here?” Thus consulted his Ministers . His Manam{ Chitha(Memory)+Inner Conscience Mind +Intellect(Bhuddhi) +Ego}did not have any liking and was roaming around.Then again he looked at Rama Lakshmana deeply and called his Ministers said “ How did these two enter this Forest whichis impregnable by any one. They have been sent by our Enemy Valli and probably have come in the Disguise of Thapasvi(Mendicant’s doing Penance) to kill us.” Said Sugreeva.
They also decided that what Sugreeva is telling seems to be the truth. They shifted to another Mountain Peak and surrounded him and were standing knowing not what to do? They got scared even at the new peak and started jumping from hill to hill.Due to that the peaks started trembling; trees with flowers started breaking. Animlas like Deer, Cat, Tiger ran amuck in fear. Then with another idea they returned to Rihya Mukha Mountain. Seeing Sugreeva getting confused whether it was Valli himself in the guise of these has come to kill them , Hanuman said “ Lord ! you and our firneds need not worry thinking that this may be the tactics of Valli.This is Rishya Mukha Mountian; Valli will not come here. What is the beneficial use of our running to various places? Are you not supposed to be scared of only Valli and no one else ? So why are you afraid? Allowing your thoughts to get scattered and imaginations to ferment, instead of thinking patiently you are having pangs of anxiety. The natural habit of Monkey’s unsteady mind has exhibited itself! You are bestowed with normal Wisdom as well as Special Wisdom.With this you should be able to assess others from their Dress, Movements, Speech,pranks and their intentions and then we should take appropritate actions, how can a King run the country without steady Mind? “ thus Hanuman counseled him with respect.
Hearing these reassuring words Sugreeva got emboldened and spoke to Anjhaneya “ These look like Deva Kumars(sons of Celestials); he has Long arms stretching upto his knees with broad Eyes;and are wearing Weapons of Yore.Who will not get scared seeing such Valorous persons? I doubt these greatest amongst men seems to have been sent by Valli only. Iam not scared that Valli himself has come directly. Kings have many friends, we should not believe them. Those who have enemeis should consider those in disguise as Enmical. Even if we trust them they may not trust us.They know that we will always be alert, but they will not let us go without killing us.Valli has foresight in issues of Goverenace.Kings secretly will adopt many means to kill their Enemies. Even though they may be like ordinarly people in disguse , we should be careful about them. Anjhaneya Please take the disguise of an ordinary Human and go and inquire and verify about them. The opinions/ thought process of their Manam{ Chitha (Memory)+Inner Conscience Mind +Intellect(Bhuddhi) +Ego} will be seen in their actions, traits of their hand, Leg, Body, Movements,Facial expressions, from their physical features , from their speech and use other means to assess exactly what is in their Manam ie Thought,Conscience, Intellect , Ego and are they Pure in all these aspects including their intentions? If that be so with sagacious speech, timely words accompanied by tacts & courtsies, Make them believe you and earn their Trust. Convert them to become in my Hitham ( Palatable, Soothing counsel - in the interest/Good of Me- well being) and also check “ Why have they come here duly Armed?” and know of their real intentions, you shoud be able to assess them from the speech itself whether they are Pious Or Wicked persons.” Said Sugreeva .
Thus Hanuman hearing Sugreeva felt that his words were right and decided to go to Rama Lakshmana. Hanuman who could take the disguise at mere thought appreciated Sugreeva who was an exponent in Raja Neethi(Diplomacy and Strategic studies of international, National relations-Precepts on ethics of Governance for Kingdom, Constituional Law and Justice)and went to the place where those Great Valorous Rama Lakshmana were.
