Sundarakanda

Chapter 27

Hearing the words of Sita some Rakshasa woman were shaken with anger , some others ran to Ravana to convey the same.

Then seeing Sita being threatened by the Rakshasa women an old Rakshasi by name Trijata who was sleeping till that time spoke thus. "You eat yourselves. She is the daughter of King Janaka and the daughter-in-law of King Dasaratha. I have just seen a dream which is terrifying. It portends the destruction of Rakshasa's and the victory of her husband".

The Rakshasa women who were reeling with anger then asked Trijata ," Oh Trijata please tell us the about the dream you saw last night."

Hearing the request of the Rakshasa women Trijata started telling the details of the dream. She saw a palanquin made out of elephant tusks with images of thousands of swan coming through the sky. In that Rama was seated Lakshmana wearing bright white clothes . I also saw Sita in my dream sitting on a while mountain in the ocean. Sita is united with SriRama like light is with Sun.

" Like the heavens cannot be attained by sinful people , it is not possible to defeat the great SriRama for the gods or demons or anybody else. I saw Ravana drenched in oil , attired in red , drunk and wearing garland of kara vira flowers. I saw him falling from the Pushpaka Vimana to the ground.

I also saw in the dream that the Lanka ruled by Ravan being burned down by a powerful Vanara acting as an emissary of SriRama. Please move away from here. Rama will recover Sita. Angered SriRama will destroy all Rakshasas.

Trijata continued.

"SriRama will not allow his beloved wife who followed him to the forests to be threatened or ill treated by anybody. Hence stop the cruel and threatening words. We ask for her forgiveness. This is what I think. Since I saw the arial car in my dreams I believe that Sita will achieve her purpose and SriRama will be victorious and the defeat is certain for Rakshasas ".

The throbbing of her lotus like eye is an auspicious sign. It portends hearing good news very soon. Then Sita rejoicing at the prospect of victory for SriRama told the Rakshasa women that " if what she said comes out true then I will protect you all "

Thus ends Chapter 27 of Sundarakanda
