There seems to be a time of Fear nearing, when ordinary persons will be devastated. Warrior will be decimated. Bears, Monkeys and Rakshasaas will countlessly Die. Wind is polluted and blowing; the Earth is trembling; the Mountain peaks are shifting; the Huge Trees are breaking and falling suddenly. The clouds are in the colour of Red foxes and ominous looking, the eagles flying underneath them is covering them, {Varahameera says the following the Earth shaking in the Dusk or Dawn, Falling of burning embers in the day,Stars being visible, Lightining/Tunder strikes, the pouring of Thick Grass or Blood indicate the destruction of the country }  Duriing the Dusk the clouds are seen in Blood red (Sindhur-Kumkum) colour ominous lookin. Burning fire balls are falling from the Sun.Cuel Animals and Birds are meekly howling looking at Sun from all sides is an indicator of Great imminent Danger to the country. The Moon not having it’slusture even in the Night is making me sad. During the dusk there is an envelop surrounding the Sun is red and beyond that slightly Black, it is ugly looking as at the time of Deluge, hitherto not seen. {Kashyapa says if there are 2 circles of different colours surrounding Sun Army will be destroyed; if 3 Layers are there King will die. In the forenoon if circle is seen around Sun it indicates Disease, 2nd Noon is indicator of Rain and 3rd Afternoon Good fortune, 4th evening time Destruction will take place} Sun hitherto was spotless now dark spots are appearing {Varahameera says except during Monsoon if Eclipses take place and holes are seen in Sun & Moon are indicator of Nation’s catastrophe} Stars being dim while twinkling, the World also looks as though Deluge is nearing. Weak Birds are able to beat Eagles, Crows Foxes are howling dangerously.

When the Vanaras and Rakshasaas battle with Boulders, Tridents, Swords Battle field Earth will be full of Blood and flesh like Marshy land. “The Lanka City which hitherto been guarded we will enter from all 4 sides with our Vanara Army.” said Rama. He is the embodiment of Dharma; He is Jewell adorning Valour; Very Capable; with his face blossoming that War is imminent, dazzling with Aura; started towards Lanka. Vibheeshana, Sugreeva, Vanaras with full confidence that they will decimate Rakshasaas, were roaring with Happiness, started searching for appropriate place of stay for the Army. Vanara Army which was matchless in Courage, Valour, Porwess Traits Rama at time had doubted at times whether they would be overawed by the Vastness of Sea or Lankas Fortress etc , but whereas they are eagerly awaiting for the War, are exhibiting in their Jumping, Roaring, Leaping, Swirling their tails up and stashing it on the ground are indications of their Morale and their keenness to fullfill their desire in winning the war and are focused on the same, hence worries eveaporated now and was Jubilant (Slokas16).
