sandalwood, Sitaaji returned absolutely sanctified from the fire Yes, she was now<br />
adorned with beautiful form like that of heated gold. With great joy, the Lord welcomed<br />
seated her on his left. 1<br />
The deities showered flowers on them from the sky. Mendicants, celestial musicians,<br />
celestial singers all by their priases of glory to the young monarchy filled the sky.<br />
Indra came and by the command of the Lord gave lifeto the monkey soldiers who had<br />
been killed in the battle. Vibhishan requested the Lord to step but once into Lankaa, but<br />
as per his father‘s vow Sri Raghunaathji was not able to enter any city or any residential<br />
areas. So the Lord said: ―Vibhishanji! My stay of residence in the forest has a few days<br />
left to expire. And by that time if I cannot get back to Ayodhyaa in time, then I may not<br />
see my lovely brother Bharat alive. So please do not insist on this. And taking on the<br />
command of the Lord, Vibhishanji prepared the Pushpak plane. With jewels, pearls and<br />
flowers the Puspak plane was decorated. And he presented at the lord‘s feet invaluable<br />
jewels, pearls, diamonds and other items.<br />
But what would the Lord do with such presents? So he commanded all the things to be<br />
loaded on the Pushpak plane and showered down in flight, so that the monkeys and the<br />
bears and so forth can take them and enjoy. So as per the Lord‘s command they were<br />
showered from the sky. Taking whatever they desired the monkeys began to dance.<br />
It was the Lord‘s wish that all the monkeys go to their residences. But they were very<br />
eager to see the crowning ceremony of Sri Raghunaathji. So all together with the<br />
monkeys and Vibhishanji took their seats in the Pushpak plane. The Pushpak plane was<br />
not like the modern planes. It was able to take on board all the passengers.The victorious<br />
departure of the Lord took place. Proceeding forward, the monkeys shouted glory to the<br />
Lord: ―Siyaaver Raamchandraki Jay!‖<br />

the sky route.Traversing across the ocean, it proceeded over the locations which Sri<br />
Raam pointed out to Sitaaji where he had searched for her. Showing her many of the<br />
forests, mountains, monasteries, the plane passed over Kishkindhaa, Rushyamukh,<br />
Pampaa reservoir and others amongst the.<br />
Sri Raamji looked at Hanumaanji and observed he intended to say something. The Lord<br />
asked: ―Mahaavir! Do you intend to say something?‖<br />
1 The worldly people doubt the the playact of great souls. In reality, Raavan never abducted the true form of<br />
Sitaaji. Readers of Vaalmik Raamaayan will know that Sitaaji‘s shadow was abducted by Raavan. Her true<br />
form she had given up to Fire. Apart from Sri Raam and Sitaaji, no one else knew the reason for entering<br />
into fire. Having entered the fire, Sitaaji made her shadow disappear. And the Fire divinity himself returned<br />
Sitaaji. - Editor<br />
