Illusory Sita Killed
Having understood Rama’s intention to kill him, Indrajith left the Battle field and entered Lanka. He thought over the Killings of Kumbhakarana and other Rakshasaa Warriors, with his pride hurt and with fiery eyes with immense dazzling Physical Aura, accosted by neumerous Rakshasaas, he came out of Lanka from the Western Entrance gate.The Rakhsasaa whom the Devas (Celestails) & Dhanav (Demons) feared when he found that Rama Lakshmana were prepared for a gory pitched Fierce Battle he used the Maya (Magic / Sorcery) {wanting to do the Nikumbhala Yaga if when perfomed without hindrance will confer him strength of Astra (is an individually targetted or WMD missile-type weapon that is to be hurled at an enemy. Examples include arrows from bows. A shastrais a personal weapon, like swords and maces, that must be constantly operated by the warrior And are ov Varied types some obtained from Divine Prayers) which the Enemies can never win over he wanted to till then Divert the attention of Rama Lakshmana through Battle , hence he used Maya (Magic / Sorcery) But he couldn’t near the Enraged Rama Lakshmanas. Other than them those who knew Sita was Hanuman only. With Vibheeshana this Magic Trick will not work. In front of Marurti’s eyes he wanted to use this Magic; hence he came out of the Weatern Entrance Gate where Maruthi was Located. Rama Lakshamna could not see him).He Created by Maya an Illusory Figurine Like Sita in his Chariot and started killing her in the middle of the Rakshasaa Army.This was a ploy to sway the Minds of Entire Vanara Army so that Wicked Indrajith came towards them with Illusory Sita Figurine seated in his Chariot. The Moment they sighted him all Varaas were up in Arms with Mountains, Trees, Boulders waiting for his Arrival. Anjhaneya took a Huge Mountain peak went ahead of them towards him. He saw Sita in His Chariot Feeble with unhappiness, with single braid of Hair do, with Dirty single Garment being weak due to Fasting, with her body Lusture waned due to Dirt and Dust, thus make any one’s Heart Melt in a glance at her plight Anjaneya was shocked. He looked at her intently for some time before he decided that She was in fact Sita; since ain’t he had very recently had talked to her? Maruthi’s Eyes swelled at her Plight of being in the clutches of Enemy in such shambles. With His Intellect, Ego shaken he started thinking ‘What is the intention of this Rakshasaa Indrajith in bringing Sita here?’ Then with Vanara Seniors he jumped on Indrajith in the Chariot. Seeing that indrajith with indigance and fire in his Eyes unsheathed the Sword, pulling Sita with her hair when all the Vanaras were witnessing hit Her; She yelled ‘Rama Rama’. That cruel Rakshasaa seeing Indrajith catching hold of Sita the Jewel amongst Pathivrathas (pure pristine and Noblest, Chaste, Loving, Humble doting Wife) Hanuman was shaken and stunned and numbed by Sorrow shed tears profusely. **( By this single act though on an illusory Sita Indrajith’s decay of his accumulated Boons of Strength / Valour/ Powers etc started eroding like Caner spreads it’s tentacles in internal destructions silently).
Hanuman could not longer take it and said ‘hey Wicked Scoundrel! Did you choose this path paving way for your speeding up your journey to Goriest of Hells? Is it all the Manliness you have to drag Rama’s wife by her hair? Despite being born in a Brahma Rishi’s Lineage your inborn Rakshasaa Nature hasn’t left you? Chee! You should be torched for having such a despicable act and thinking and Culture You Curel! Wicked! Mean ! Great Sinner! Do you have anything called Sympathy or Compassion in You? She had left Her Home, Her Kingdom, Weaned away from Rama and is in such Distress; Your trying to Kill her what harm has she done unto you? If you kill her, You won’t Live for much too Long. For this act only,You will die with my Hands.You will attain the Hell permanently meant for those who kill Ladies. “saying this he came running towards Indrajiith who was surrounded by Vanaras.
They were stopped by Special Rakshasaa Commandos. Indraijth churned the Vanara Army by showering with Arrows spoke to Anjaneya - “Sugreeva, You and Rama for which purpose you have all come, that Very Sita while you are all witnessing I am going to Kill her. Then I will kill Rama Lakshmana, You, Sugreeva and Vibheeshana. You said Ladies should not be killed. Can’t we do any act which will cause agony, Hardship to the Enemy?” – thus Indrajith swinging with his Sword Killed Illusory Sita in one slice. She with Blood profusely bleeding Yelled and fell on the ground. Indrajith then looked at Hanuman and said “Look here. I have made Rama’s wife a prey to my Anger. Sita is dead. All your efforts haven’t they gone waste?” - saying this he roared like a Lion. The Vanaras who were standing around him witnessing this were too numbed and shocked. But they couldn’t near Indrajith who was protected by Rakshasaas.
Thus that wicked Rakshasaa got immeasurable happiness in slaying (Illusory) Sita and feigned Happiness. Vanaras were in terrified mood and ran away from the Battle field. (Slokas 36)
