Hanumas reply to Swayamprabha

Swayamprabha asked them to tell their story if their hunger and thirst have been quenched.Hanuma started replying her.Sree Rama is the king of entire universe. He is the eldest son of King Dasaradha.He came to Dandakaaranya along with his wife,Seetha and brother Lakshmana.During their stay there.Demon Raavana kidnapped Seetha.They were searching for her.At that time,King of Vaanaraas,Sugreeva became their friend. Sugreeva sent his men to search and find out Seetha.Sugreeva sent us to search in southern direction.We tried and tried but to no avail. we were tired and exhausted. At that time,we came across this tunnel and we came here.You have been kind enough to welcome us and feed us.You saved us by your kind deed.We are thinking of how to reciprocate your kindness. Swayam prabha told him that nothing was necessary . She acted according to righteousness.She was happy to hear about them.Hanuma requested her another thing.time stipulated by their king,Sugreeva was over.So,she should help them come out of that tunnel.They had come to accomplish a great deed. If they are stranded there,it would become very difficult. Swayam prabha told them that no one could go out with their lives. But she would help them. But they all had to close their eyes till she told them to open them.Within seconds she brought them out of that tunnel.She showed them Vindhya mountains.She pointed out at Prasravana sailamu.She showed them the sea.She helped them identify their location. She took leave of them and wished them good luck.

entry into Rukshabilam

Vaanaraas were tired,hungry and thirsty. They came to the entrance of Rukshabilam,a tunnel.They saw many types of birds...Krounchamulu,Swans,Saarasamulu,Chakravaakamulu...coming out of the tunnel. Their wings were wet.Hanumantha absorved it.He said that they were all tired.It seems there might be a water body near by, because entrance of the Bilam was fresh with greenery.All the vaanaraas entered the tunnel.It was very dark.They held one anothers hands and wanked.After some time,they could see light. There was a beautiful garden.All trees were in blossom.The place was filled with diamonds and saphires.They could see a pond which was enriched with golden lotus flowers,golden fish and golden turtles.Near by there was an elegant mansion.It had golden windows,silver tiles,pearls decoration.Every where you could see gold,silver,pearls,and diamonds.Soices and condiments were in heaps.There was no limit to the beautiful and silken clothing.There were many fruits and tubers.They came across a woman who was a sage. Hanumantha saluted her and enquired about her.Who are you?to whom do all these costly and fabulous things belong?Weare all tired.We are hungry and thirsty.So,without thinking we came here to find water.We are attracted seeing all these things.How come there are golden trees here?How can golden lotus flowers come here?Whose power is it?We are unable to assess.If you care to tell us,we want to hear. That woman started telling Hanumantha.Mayudu,a demon built this golden garden.He is the main architect of demons.He did great penance and obtained a boon from Brahma.He built this mansion . He loved Hema, apsarasa.He was living here with her. Indra got angry and attacked him with his Vajraayudham.Mayudu left this place. Brahma gave this garden and mansion to Hema.Hema is my friend.I am the daughter of MeruSaavarni.My name is Swayamprabha I protect this garden and this mansion. Hey vaanaraas!why did you come this way?On what mission did you come here?First,you eat these delicious fruits,drink the water and pacify your hunger and thirst.Later,you tell me about yourselves.
