Chapter 64

Dadhimukha , the delighted Vanara, then having received the orders from Sugriva made obeisance to SriRama , Lakshmana and Sugriva. He then quickly traveled the same ariel way as he has come and descended on the earth and entered Madhuvan.

Then Dadhimukha approached the Vanaras and addressed Angada with sweet words

" Oh Angada ! Out of ignorance we committed mistakes. Like your father earlier, you and Sugriva are the leaders of the Vanaras !. Oh Vanara ! I went to Sugriva who is like your father and reported to him that all of you have come here. He was happy to hear that news. He was not angry upon hearing the destruction of Madhuvan. The king of Vanaras ordered me to send all you to his place".

Then Angada who is good at speaking appropriately told his followers as follows. " All the Vanaras having had their drinks freely have rested. The only thing left is to visit our master Sugriva". Hearing these words of Angada all the Vanaras were happy. In turn they tell Angada " We are all waiting to go to our Master Sugriva "

When all the Vanaras said as above Angada too said " Let us go !" . Then all of them flew up into the sky at once.

Seeing Angada and other Vanaras who were approaching him in the sky, Sugriva, the king of Vanaras, spoke to SriRama who is lost in the sea of sorrow due to separation from Sita . " Oh Rama ! Please be comforted. Sita has been located. There is no doubt. All good things will happen to you. Oh Rama ! The delight of Mother Kausalya ! The follower of all austerities ! Be comforted. Without any doubt Sita devi has been discovered , and discovered by none other than Hanuman. With Jambavan as the leader , Angada as the commander , and Hanuman as the one directing there can be no failure in that mission !

Then they heard chattering sounds in the sky from a distance. That sound was as though it was proudly announcing the success of Hanuman in completing the mission ! The Sugriva the king of Vanaras too acknowledged the news by raising his tail announcing his happiness

The delighted heroes Angada and other Vanaras then descended at a place near the king of Vanaras Sugriva and the best of men SriRama .

Hanuman then first prostrated to convey his respects and then announced that " Sita Devi is safe with her chastity intact". Hearing the words " Sita has been discovered" from Hanuman both SriRama and Lakshmana were greatly overjoyed !

Then SriRama , the destroyer of all the enemies , filled with joy , looked at Hanuman with great pleasure and respect .
