Three days elapsed

 Jai Sri Ram,

Three days elapsed, and the crass ocean would not answer the prayer of Rama, Sri Rama thereupon indignantly said, there can be no friendship without fear, Laxman bring me my bow and arrows, I will dry up the ocean with a missile presided over by the god of fire, 

Supplication before an idiot, friendship with a rough, inculcating liberality on a born miser, talking wisdom to one steeped in worldliness, glorifying dispassion before a man of excessive greed, a lecture of mind control to an irascible man and a discourse on the exploit of Sri Hari to a libidinous person are as futile as sowing seeds in a barren land, 

So saying lord strung his bow and fitted an arrow, this charmed the Laxman but a blazing fire broke out in the heart of the ocean, all creatures in the ocean faced the heat beyond bearing capacity making the presiding deity of the ocean give up his pride, and manifest in the form of a Brahman with a gold plate filled with precious gems before Rama,

Though One may take infinite pains in watering a plantain it will not bear fruits unless it is hewed, similarly, mark me O king of birds, Continued Kakabhushandi to Garuda, vile heed no prayer but yields only when reprimanded,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

 

turns demon by the curse of sage

 Jai Sri Ram,

Spies relate the reality to Ravana that there are so many monkeys and bears there and they are born warriors and truth of infinite might that roared to devour Lanka and above all they have on their head Rama,

Then they read the message sent by Laxman to Ravana, O fool do not bring your race to utter ruin, you will not spared even though you seek the protection of Vishnu, Brahma, and Shiva, 

Therefore abandoning pride like your brother either seek the lotus feet of the lord or be consumed with your family like a moth into the fire of Sri Rama's shaft, this made Ravana dismayed at heart lastly spies request him to return Sita to Rama for his own welfare,

This makes Ravana furious beyond all horizon and he kicks the spy and discards him at once, the Spy named Suka bows his head to Ravana and proceeds to Rama thereby making obeisance in his lotus feet and returns to his hermitage, was a saint who turns demon by the curse of sage August, 

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

makes Ravana furious

 Jai Sri Ram,

As soon as Vibhishan proceeded towards Rama, Ravana sent spies after him, assuming the false appearance of monkeys they witnessed all the doings of Rama, praised eternally, and openly commenced applauding Sri Rama's amiability, in the intensity of their emotions they forgot to maintain their disguise,

Recognized in their own form monkeys caught hold of them and bring to Laxman, they sought refuge in Rama and praised Rama as well, Laxman rescued them from the monkeys and sent them back with a message to Ravana, 

Covey to the fool my words a generous message for him, Surrender Sita and make peace or your awaits you, bowing their heads spies returned to Ravana and related the whole episode unto the truth of Rama and refuge of Vibhishna in his mercy,

They praise the glory of Rama which makes Ravana furious, and then they reveal the truth of warriors on that side with their immeasurable might and velour, and the story of how Rama made Vibhishan the king of Lanka by putting a mark of sovereignty on his forehead, 

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

ocean is an ancestor of yours,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Said Vibhishan, my Lord, presiding deity over the ocean is an ancestor of yours,

He will Think over the question and suggest some means of crossing the ocean,

The whole host of bears and monkeys will thus be able to cross the ocean without much ado,

Said Rama, friend, you have suggested an excellent plan, let us try it, if providence helps it, this did not find any favor from Laxman, Rama said to Laxman ease your mind, and went to the seashore, first bowed his head and greeted then, took the seat thereupon, and start his prayer,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

Rama accepted him in his service,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Recognizing Vibhishan as his own man Rama accepted him in his service, the amiability of his disposition gladdened the heart of the whole monkey host, 

Then all-wise, who dwells in the heart of all, is manifest in all with a specific motive and as the exterminator of the demons race, spoke words strictly observing the rules of decorum, 

Listen O Lord, listen of Lord of Monkeys and O valiant sovereign of Lanka, how to cross the deep ocean full of alligators, snakes, and all varieties of fishes unfathomable and difficult to cross, 

Said Vibhishan, Lord, although your arrow itself can dry up innumerable oceans, propriety demands that you should approach the ocean and request the deity presiding over it,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

Fanned to fury by his own breath

 Jai Sri Ram,

Thus did the Lord Rama save Vibhishan from being consumed by the fire of Ravana's wrath,

Fanned to fury by his own breath and bestowed on him unbroken sovereignty, 

Rama conferred on Vibhishan with much difference the same fortune Lord Shiva had bestowed on Ravana after the latter had offered his ten heads to him in a sacrifice,

Those who worship anyone else, giving up such a benign lord, are mere beasts without a tail, and a pair of horns,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

So be it

 Jai Sri Ram,

Said Vibhishan, Listen, my Lord, ruler of the whole creation, animate and inanimate, protector of suppliant and knower of all, hearts, 

I did have some lurking desire in my heart before, but the same has been washed away by the stream of devotion to your feet, 

Now, my gracious Lord, grant me such pure devotion to your lotus feet as that which gladdened Shiva's heart,

So be it, replied the Lord, staunch in the fight, and immediately asked for the water of the sea, even though, my friend, you have no craving, my sight in the world never fails to bring its reward, so saying, Sri Rama applied on his forehead the sacred mark of sovereignty and a copious shower of flowers rained down from the heavens,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please
