Kumbhakarna

Demons took perfumes,scents,garlands,special food items and went into Kumbhakarnaas chamber.The entrance gate was one and half yojanaas wide and high.Kumbhakarna was happily sleeping.Demons tried to go near him but his inhalation and exhalation made them fall back.With utmost difficulty,they could reach him.They put heaps of rice,pots full of blood and wine near him and started waking him up.They applied sandalwood paste on his body and put garlands .They burnt scented sticks to waken him up.They roared like thunder struck clouds.They blew conches and made sounds with trumpets.Kumbhakarna did not kove even an inch.They hit him with iron clubs.They hit him with huge trees.They hit him with fists.Entire Lanka city resounded with the noise they made,but Kumbhakarna did not wake up.Demons dragged his hair.They poured water in to his ears.They blasted rockets.They were of no use.They made thousand elephants walk over him.Kumbhakarna felt something was creeping on hs body.he moved a little.To wake him up completely they beat him with sharp bouldres and big trees.kumbhakarna did not mind those beatings and thrashings.He woke up hungry and yawned.He drank blod and wine which was brought to him in huge pots.They realised that he was satisfied with the food.Then ,they stood before him.He saw hem and wondered why they were surrounding him.He was angry with them.Why did you wake me from my deep sleep?Is our king safe?Is he in any danger?There must really be grave reason for waking me up.Tell me the actual facts.I ould make him happy and forget his fears.I would punish Indra.I would kill God of Fire. Yoopaakshudu,Raavanaas minister,replied him.We are not facong any problem with deities.Entire fear is caused by a mere mortal.Lanka is surrounded by Vaanaraas.Raama got angry because His wife was kidnapped by Raavana.All this trouble is caused because of that only.Earlier,a vaanara came and destroyed entire Lanka.He even killed Akshakumar also.In the present war,many demon warriors have been killed.Even Raavana participated in war and survived and escaped narrowly.Raama has achieved it,which no one has achieved till now. Kumbhakarna replied in this manner.Yoopaakshudaa!I will go to battle field directly from here and kill Raama,Lakshmana and vaanara army.I will go to see Raavana only after that.I would drink blood of Raama and Lakshmana and then only see our king.Mahodarudu advised Kumbhakarna to first appear before Raavana,take his advice and then only go to war field.Kumbhakarna agreed to Mahodaras advice.Demons informed Raavana that Kumbhakarna was arriving to meet him.
