Thaara and Sugreeva lessen Lakshmanas anger
Thaara startedtalking to Lakshmana. Lakshmana!be cool!Do not talk ill of Sugreeva.He is not ungrateful.He is not a liar.He is not wicked.He got back his kingdom and his wife because of Ramas help only.Sugreeva had been single for a very long time and he had suffered a lot.Now,he got the opportunity to relax and enjoy his life with his wife.So,he forgot how time passed away.Do you not know that Viswamithra lived with Menaka for ten long years but thought that only a single day has passed?When the fate and mind set of great sages is like that,what would be the plight of ordinary people?Please excuse him.You are a great man. without thinking about pros and cons of a situation,you should not come to a rash conclusion.You should not get angry,without knowing the actual facts.First you cool down and consider his condition.You accept my prayer.For the sake of Ramas duty,Sugreeva is ready to sacrifice Ruma,me,kingdom,riches,treasures and any other thing on the face of this earth.He is sure to kill Ravana in war and bring back Seetha and unite Rama and Seetha.Army of vanaras is coming. Vali had told me earlier that without a huge army of vanaras,it would be very difficult to defeat Ravana.For your work only,Sugreeva is making all the arrangements to collect huge vanara army from various places.
Lakshmana!first cool down and show mercy on us.
Lakshmana cooled down hearing Thaaras words.Seeing Lakshmana in cool mood,Sugreeva regained his confidence. His drowsiness went away, He removed his garlands and stood before Lakshmana.
Lakshmana!I never forgot the fact that because of Ramas help only I secured my kingdom.Whatever help I return back,it would never equal his greatness and magnanimity.Sree Rama is so great that with his looks itself ,he can kill Ravana and bring back Seetha. I am just his helper.He could kill Vali with a single arrow felling seven saala trees. Such a great warrior does not need a helper. I am just your servant.I am ready to follow you and walk behind you.Please forgive my mistake.Is there anyone on the face of this earth,who has not done any wrong?
Lakshmanas anger disappeared completely with these words of THaara and Sugreeva.

Lakshmana loses temper
Lakshmana lost his temper seeing Sugreeva in that state. He started delivering the message given by Rama to Sugreeva.Sugreeva!the world respects that king who is strong,of good family,kind hearted,who has control over his senses,grateful,and tells truth all the time.It abuses that king who is unfair,does not live in right path,ungrateful person,as a sinner.If a person gives wrong information about a horse, he would have to face the sin of having killed hundred horses.If a person tells wrong things about a cow,it is as if he had killed thousand cows.If a man lies about a man,he would incur the curse and sin that equals if he had killed his kith and kin and committed suicide.
There is nothing wrong in killing an ungrateful person.Regarding an ungrateful person,Brahma ,himself told like this.great sages have showed way out for those who had committed such sins like Brahmahathya,who indulges in drinking,a thief,and who has failed in completing his mission. But there is no forgiveness and way out for a person who is ungrateful.
Hey vanaraa!you are a wicked person. You are ungrateful.If you had remembered the help Rama had bestowed on you,you would have already started searching for Seetha,by now.But you did not do it. You forgot yourself in materialistic pleasures and went back on your words.Rama could not recognise you as a serpant,but thought of you as a frog.Rama failed in identifying you as bad man and handed over this kingdom to you.If you forget the help rendered to you by Rama, I am definitely going to send you to Vali.Vali was killed and you are also going to face the same music in our hands.You are enjoying yourself ,without even thinking of your responsibility to search for Seetha.It seems you do not know the effect of Ramas arrow.

Thaara talks to Lakshmana
Even Thaara was drunk and in a drowsy condition.She reached Lakshmana direct from her bedroom.As soon as Lakshmana saw her,he was ashamed. He realised her condition and he could not lift his eyes to look at her in her present condition.But she was unaware of how she was looking. So,she started talking to without any shame or inhibitions.Hey prince!why are you so angry?Who disobeyed you?Name him and we will punish him!
Lakshmanas anger dipped to the lowest ebb. He talked to her.Thaaraa!your husband,Sugreeva is always under the influence of alcohol.He forgot completely about us. He told us to wait for four months and he would search for Seetha. He is not even thinking about it.Drinking is injurious to health and difference between right and wrong is lost under its influence.If he forgets about the word he gave,what are we supposed to do? please tell us.
To this,Thaara tried to pacify Lakshmana with her words.Lakshmana!Sugreeva is your well wisher all the time.He is your man. Is it justified to lose temper to this extent?if there is flaw or mistake,great people like you should pardon him.Iknow the reason behind your anger.I know the help you extended to Sugreeva. I also know what he is supposed to do in return for that favor.But he is under the influence of lust and sex.Seeing you,I can understand that you know nothing about the impact of lust and sex. Even great sages are its victims,many a time. And we are vanaras.A person ,who under the influence of lust does not care for anything....right and wrong,discipline and duty.please forgive your brother.Even in this state,he has not forgotten the word given to you. He gave directions to his ministers to collect and call for all the vanara warriors around the world.
Lakshmana!please come into the palace.There is nothing wrong in visiting friends wives.Lakshmana went inside and saw Sugreeva,surrounded many women ,in disgust.They all stood up and saluted him.Sugreeva also stood up,saluted him and came to him.

Lakshmana goes to Sugreeva
Lakshmana took his bow and arrows and started to Kishklinda in anger.He was cutting trees and crumpling boulders and walking in long strides in full anger.All along the ,he was thinking what to talk to Sugreeva and how to answer if Sugreeva questions.in the outskirts of Kishkindha,vaanaras saw Lakshmana in angry mood. They too took boulders and tress in defense.Lakshmannas temper seeing their action.Vaanaras ran to Sugreeva and told him about Lakshmanas arrival in full temper. But Sugreeva did not take it seriously.He was enjoying love life with his wife,Thara.Some ministers of Sugreeva sent few warriors to know what is happening. Angada was among them.
Lakshmana told Angada like this. Angada !convey these words to Sugreeva.Lakshmana could not withstand the sorrow and pain of Rama. So Lakshmana has cone and is waiting at the entrance door of Kishkinda.if you like ,please do as Rama tells you.
Angada went to Sugreeva and told these words to him. But Sugreeva was not in a mood to hear those warnings. He was drowsing with alcohol effect.monkeys made shrill sounds and Sugreeva woke up,but still drowsy. at that time his ministers came and started talking to him.
Hey King!you have two friends. They are good and pious people.Among them,one named Lakshmana has come and is waiting at the entrance.He is in full angry mood.You go with your family and seek his mercy.You act according to the wishes of Rama.Stand up on your word.
In spite of ministers cautious words,Sugreeva could not understand why Lakshmana was angry.Sugreeva started blabbering.why is Lakshmana angry? I did not do anything wrong.I did not use any unspeakable word.may be my enemies told some wrong things about me.may be he took them to heart.All of you and know what is the real matter.I need not be afraid of either Rama or Lakshmana.But I am concerned that one of my friends is angry.It is easy to acquire a friend ,but it is difficult to retain him.Even for a trivial issue,friendship would lost at times.I enjoyed Sree Ramas help.But it is difficult for me to reciprocate his help.I am afraid of that matter.
Hanumantha started to make Sugreeva see things in the right way.Hey king!to make you happy,Rama has killed Vali.Ramas anger is nothing to be worried. It is like anger of a lover.You gave word to him that you would search for Seetha in winter . But you have not started. May be Lakshmana came to remind that winter has set in already.Rama is in a sad mood because he is unable to find his wife. to remind you regarding the word you gave to him,may be he sent Lakshmana to you.You have to bear their anger.You are in the wrong because you have not kept up your word.so,go to Lakshmana ,salute him and plead for his forgiveness.
Minister should never hide actual facts to the king.So,we are telling the truth and we are not afraid of it.You know Sree Ramas valor.If he releases his arrow in anger,entire world come in to his fists.Be careful not to make him angry.even otherwise,you profited and received much help from him.You go to Rama,fall on his feet and be loyal to him as wife is loyal to her husband.never over cross the limits written by you.Rama and Sugreeva bonded their friendship keeping fire as the auspicious alibi.So,Hanuma has used these words of wife and husband in their relationship.Rama has hugged Sugreeva many a time in friendship.
Lakshmana reached the chamber of Sugreeva. music and songs were heard from inside.that room was filled with young women.Lakshmana was shy of hearing anklets sounds from inside.He made big sound and went away from there and stood at a distance.Sugreeva heard that sound and was in tension with fear. He started talking to his wife,Thara.
Thaara!can you understand anything with these developments?Lakshmana is always soft spoken and mild.Why is he angry now?Did I do anything wrong?If you anything,please remind me.Or else,you yourself go to Lakshmana and pacify him.great people never lose their temper before women.As soon as he sees you,he would become calm and composed.Then ,it would be easier for me to go and learn the real facts behind his anger.

Rama sends Lakshmana to Sugreeva
Rama was in low key that day. He was talking to Lakshmana in this fashion.Lakshmana!I lost my kingdom and came to these woods.I lost my wife and in sorrow.Sugreeva has become the king and he is not thinking about me.May be he is under the impression that Rama has no where to go.Rama lost his kingdom,had been humiliated by Ravana and has come seeking my help.So,he is not caring me.Sugreeva has given us the word that he would start searching for in winter . But it seems he forgot it.He was clever enough to get his things straightened and forgot about our existence.
Rama is directing Lakshmana to go to Sugreeva and say these words to him.Those who forget their words given to their well wishers are characterless people.whether once given the word,whether it be right or wrong,if keeps up his word,he is a warrior and valiant person.Even jackals would not touch the bodies of ungrateful people.If he wants to taste the pain of Sree Ramas arrows,he could do what he wanted.
Lakshmana!Sugreeva is under the effect of drinking and sexual life with his wife.So,he is not showing any concern for us.You go and tell him that if he does not correct himself,he would go the same way as his brother,Vali,went.
Lakshmana lost his temper hearing his elder brother talk in this manner.He replied him.Rama!this vanara ie monkey can not stand on its words.He is indulging himself in materialistic pleasures and has forgotten us.Such a characterless fellow is not fit to be a king.First of all,we should not leave him alive.I will go this very minute to kill him.Angada would help us in search for Seetha.
Rama wanted to subside Lakshmanas anger. So he talked in pacified tones.Hey younger brother!is it justifiable to talk like that about your friend?would any one kill ones friend?I know you like him very much.It is a fact that action has been delayed.Why are you getting so angry to such a trivial thing?Go to him,talk to him in a pleasant manner and see that things get started smoothly.
