Sundara Kaanda Sarga 1
Sundara Kaanda - Sarga 1
In this first Sarga of Sundara Kāṇḍa, Hanumān flies over the ocean to the other shore.
After paying obeisance to Vāyu and other Dēvas and spirits, Hanumān sets himself to fly, by pressing the mountain with his hands and feet. With the pressure exerted by him, the mountain totters with its trees shaking off flowers, water oozing out, snakes emerging out of their holes, beasts crying, birds flying off and Maharshis and Vidyādharas leaving.
Then he flies, tearing apart the huge waves that arise in the ocean and creating a trough on the surface of the water along the path of his flight.
The ocean, recalling his special relationship with Ikshwākus and knowing that Hanumān is on a mission of the Ikshwākus, wants to help him. He asks Maināka, a mountain submerged in the waters to rise up and give Hanumān a place to rest before he proceeds with the rest of the journey. Maināka is more than happy, recalling the help Hanumān’s father Vāyu rendered him in the past, saving his wings before they were cut off by Indra. Maināka offers hospitality to Hanumān and Hanumān politely excuses himself, citing that he cannot afford to waste any time. He proceeds with his journey after thanking Maināka.
Then the Dēvas and Gandharvas, and Siddhas and great Ṛshis call upon Surasa, the mother of serpents, and ask her to test the strength and prowess of Hanumān by blocking his path. Surasa, taking the form of a gigantic Rākshasi, blocks Hanumān’s path and tells him that the Dēvas pre-destined him to be her prey, and hence he should enter her mouth. Hanumān, shrinking himself to the size of a thumb, quickly enters her mouth and comes out. Surasa, pleased with his clever maneuver, blesses him.
Then another Rākshasi by name Simhika grabs Hanumān by his shadow and pulls him back. Hanumān, having been already warned about her by Sugreeva, immediately recognizes who she is. He makes his body grow to a huge size. Simhika then opens her mouth wide enough to swallow him. Then Hanumān, shrinking himself to a small size, throws himself into her mouth, reaches her vitals and tears apart her heart and comes out.
Hanumān then lands on the other shore of the ocean, after a journey of one hundred Yōjanas, and sees Laṅkā on the top of a mountain. Realizing that his huge body might make the Rākshasas suspicious, he resumes his original form.
