Adhyathma Ramayanam - Esamskriti.com

Indrajit entered the place called Nikumbila,
After collecting the materials for fire sacrifice ,
He started the offering in fire at that time,
Wearing a red flower colour cloth garland and
Also applying sandal paste in his body,
With devotion he raised the fire ,
With an intention of increasing his power.
That son of the king of Rakshasas,
Chanting clear chants with correct colour and intonation,
And after completing the proper Karmas ,
Speedily by the grace of fire god,
He got weapons arrows , bows and chariots,
And also getting the technique of disappearing,
Without any worry completed the fire offering ,
And started for a war with Rama and others.
When he entered the battle field , the monkeys ,
Fighting with Rakshasas and were shouting and stoping them,
Megha Nadha started sending the arrows,
Like a torrential rain at all of them,
With stone , trees and mountains,
Those very terrible monkeys ,
Started very badly beating him.
The elephant , horses, marching as well the chariot soldiers,
Were sent to the place of God of death,
And seeing that their ends were nearing that son of Ravana,
With sorrow disappeared from there ,
And went on sending the collection of Brahmastra at them.
The trees started burning and falling down,
And monkeys also started falling ,
And on the bodies of the great monkeys,
Fifty, hundred , two hundred and five hundred
Arrows fell splitting their bodies again and again,
With shivering and fear they fainted and started falling.
Vividha got shot by fifty arrows,
Nine on Mainda , five on Gaja,
Ninty arrows hit Nala,
And same number on Gandhamadhana,
Eighteen arrows struck Neela , forty arrows,
70
