Ravana goes to MAAREECHA SEcond time

Ravana wound up the assembly.He told the ministers to leave him alone.He told Sootha to make his chariot ready.That chariot moves according to the wish of him.Ravana travelled in air.He crossed abodes pof sages,lotus ponds,banana gardens,clusters of trees with fruits and flowers along the seafront.On his way he came across a big banyan tree.
It was a very big tree with a vast circumference of more than hundred yojanas.Earlire.Garuthmantha used to bring his kills there and eat them on the branches of that tree.With the overweighing  caused due to the weight of elephants and other dead bodies,one of its branches broke down.Many sages,vaikhaanasa and vaalakhilyulu ,were staying under its branches.Garuthmantha did not want them to suffer.So he took the branch and its prey and ate it.Then he killed other demons there.He protected the sages.Then he went to swarga and brought amrutha from INDRA BHAVANA.That tree is named Subhadramu.Ravana saw that tree on his way.
Like this he crossed the sea and reached Maareechas abode.At that time Maareecha was leading the life of a sage.Maareecha welcomed Ravana and enquired his reason for coming to him.

Then Ravana explained to him in an imploring way that A mere mortal has killed many demons in the area which is the strong hold of demons.Rama killed fourteen thousand demons single handedly.Khara,Dooshana,Thrisirudu and many others were killed.Actually Rama had been exiled by his father.Rama is vicious natured,Lustful person.He is not rightful.He is intent on harming the people.

Without any reason or rhyme,Rama has cut off the nose and ears of Soorpanakha.
Here we observe that his aura has left him,once he came to plead Maareechas help.Another aspect is that we find Ravana trying to apply his traits and weakness to Rama by describing as above.
