Vanaras decide Praayobhavesa
Hearing Hanuman speaking softly and sweetly in a Dahrmic way praising Sugreeva Angadha said “ Anjhaneya! Steadfast mind, pure heart, noble without cruel thoughts, Purity in Soul, pure without deceit, Prowess of Valour, Courage are not there with Sugreeva. Is the elder brother’s wife is not his Mother? When he catches another Lady when his won wife is alive how can he have Purity in Soul or Purity in his Mind? How can you say that he does not have wicked ness when he closed the cave entrance with a huge Boulder,when my father was battling out with Mayavi inside? He had forgotten his promise which he made in presence of Agni(Fire) and ungrateful to a person who had done ummatchable Help. Such a person Would he think of the Help given to him?is it not clear that he has Deceitfulnes in him? Calling the Army over and sending them was not because he was afraid of his Adharma of delay was it not because of the Fear of Arrows of Lakshmana?Is this a Dharma?
Sugreeva is an ungrateful Sinner;he has vacillating nature; forgetful; with any nobler person will believe such a person? Iam his Dayaadi(Brother’s son); I am to get the Kingdom after him. If I have the desire to Live should I believe him? If you say ‘ Did he not coronate you as the young Prince’ ? King will coronate the son who is born to them. They will not notice if he had Virtues or does not have virtues.When iam born in an enmical clan would he spare me to be alive?I have done wrong to him, Weak, Orphan, I have also openly told that he is my enemy.If I return to Kishkinda will I be spared of my Life?Sugreeva is cruel; merciless;who does Keduthi (Calamity, Misery, Catastrophe, Harm) in secrecy or deceit; when I am the obstruction to his ruling I will be put on guard.Is it not better to forsake my Life under Prabhovesa? All of your return , iam not coming with you to Kishkinda this is Sathyam ie Vowing on Truth.
“ I will do Prabhvesam here itself. My death is in my interest.Please pay my respects to Rama Lakshmana and Youger father Sugreeva and convey my enquiries of their well being.Please convey my enquiries of their Health and well being to my Mothers Tara, Ruma. Console my mother so that she does not grieve for me. She has special affection for me; compassionate;one who has suffered on losing her husband; on hearing about my death here she will certainly forsake her Life” thus having spoken he bowed to elders like Jhambhavaan, spread the Dharbai( Kushall Grass) lay down on them weeping .
Seeing this all the Vanra warriors with tears rolling , wailed openly, abused Sugreeva, Praised Valli they also tried to Prauyobhavesa. Seeing thus Angadha deciding to forsake his Life they also washed their Hands and Legs did achamanam (Drinking spoonful of water thrice reciting God Krishna’s name and touching various parts of the upper body).”When our Master Angadha is going to die, is it justified we should also go to Kishkinda? We also should die along with him, that is the right thing.” Thus they resolved and in the sea shore Northern coast with spreading the Kushal grass corners sat facing East. Then Rama’s coming to Danda kaaranya, Dasaratha’s death and the salying of Kara Dhooshanas in Jhanasthaana,Jatayau’s Salvation, Sita’s abduction, Valli attaining Noble destiny of savaltion,Rama’s annoyance with Sugreeva were narrating & lamenting amongst themselves.From those huge Mountain came back the Echo; they created a special scare to them.
