Parasuramas return to Mahendra mountains

Dasaratha was pleading with Parasurama that he no longer bred hatred towards kings. he was now afamous Brahmin.He threw away the weapons and arrows in the presence of Indra.He gave away Earth to Kashyapa and left for Mahendra Mountains.But Parasurama did not pay any heed to Dasarathas words.

Rama replied him that he had had praised Parasurama for his past deeds. Now he was belittling Rama.He would not entertain such talk.So Rama lifted the Vishnu bow and ste the arrow.THen he told Parasurama that since he was Brahmin ,he would not kill him.But as the arrow was very power ful it cant be taken back. it should be used on something.Hegave him choice as where to use it-whether on his path or on his fruits of thapa.

Then Parasurama realised his folly. he understood Ramas greatness.As he had to return to mountains. he asked Rama to strike at the worlds he created by his thapa but save his padagathi.He was not ashamed to be defeataed in Ramas hands.Sages and Devathas praisd Rama.Rama then gave that Vishnu dhanush to Varun.

THen Rama consoled Dasaratha and started for Ayodhya.Citizens were very happy.Kousalya,Sumithra and Kaikeyi welcomed his sons and theirwives.
