Kapivar’s contrivance<br />
Author: Poet Sri Nrusimha Prasaad Bhatt<br />
Hanumaanji was a great intellectual proficient in the grammar; and how did he with that<br />
proficiency fail Raavan‘s Yagna ritual? That is portrayed here.<br />
Ullanghaya sindhou-ha salilam salilam<br />
Ya-ha shok-vahanir-Janakaatma-jaayaa-haa |<br />
Aadaay te-neiva da-daaha Lankaam<br />
Namaami tam praanjalir-Aanjaneyam ||<br />
Crossing the great ocean waters in mere play, taking the fire form of Jaanakiji‘s sorrow –<br />
setting ablaze the golden city of Lankaa – that Hanumaan I do pray clasping my hands.<br />
Once Sri Raamchandraji was smiling looking at the moon from the balcony. There came<br />
Sitaaji and shut both his eyes with her soft hands. Sri Raam said: ―There is a deer in the<br />
moon. I set my gaze on him so that my Sitaa cannot be away from me.‖ Sitaaji<br />
immediately was pleased for her being recognised and they sat in the balcony enjoying<br />
conversation.<br />
Bhagwaan Raam said: ― In the victory over Lankaa, if Marut-kumar was not present, then<br />
I would have remained separated from Sitaa.‖<br />
Sitaaji said: ―I hear repeatedly from the mouth of Aarya-son praises to Anjani-nandan.<br />
Pray tell me one of those great feat of Pavan-kumaar in victory over Lankaa.‖<br />
Pleased with the sweet words of Sitaaji, with overjoyed contenance he iterated just one<br />
part of the feats of his utmost devotee Hanumaanji: ―Jaanaki ! By the contrivance of<br />
Kapivar, the the ego-pride infatuated Raavan was set back and he met his defeat. See,<br />
with a view to gain victory he began to perform the Laksha Chandi Mahaa-yagna (One<br />
hundred thousand).<br />
Now if the yagna gets performed straight forward, then it would bring defeat to Sri Raam<br />
and Raavan becomes victorious. But Kapivar Hanumaanji went into the Yagna mandap.<br />
He changed his form and greatly served all the brahmin folks. Satisfied with the service,<br />
seated in the Varun brahmins said: Varam bruhi, Varam bruhi‖ (ask a boon, ask a boon).<br />
Hanumaanji said he wanted nothing – so the brahmins apart from the normal dakshinaa<br />
(normal stipend) made a vow in front of the great Mother, so Pavan kumaar asked of the<br />
brahmins.‖<br />
―What did he ask for my Lord?‖, Sitaaji said with great eagerness.<br />
―Sitaa, in that asking of his is the contrivance of Kapivar. He asked ―Give me just on<br />
portion (maatraa) from the verses to Chandi-maayi.‖ Deluded by the play act of Bhavaani<br />
Bhagvati so so be it (Tatha-astu). Thereby that great grammatarian <strong>Maruti</strong>-nandan got<br />
what he wanted. In that was the destruction of Raavan and Sri Raam‘s victory‖, Sri Raam<br />
reminiscing on Hanumaan said smilingly.<br />
Sitaaji said: ―Of which verse and portion did grammatarian Pavan-kumaar obtain. Pray<br />
tell me.‖<br />
Sri Raam began to say: ―Listen Sitaa, Rupam dehi Jayam dehi, Yasho dehi, Dvisho jahi‖,<br />
meaning that wishing for his resolve accomplishment give our yajmaan (organiser)<br />
Raavan beauty, victory, fame and destruction of enemies – was what the brahmins were<br />
