The Rāmāyana, Volume 3. Yuddhakāndam

Chapter 1: Transcriber's Note This book was transcribed from scans of several different copies of the original found at the Internet Archive. The typesetters of the original book represented the letter ā (with a macron above) as â (with circumflex above) when italicized, but this etext uses the macron throughout. Words in italics in this etext were italicized in the original book. I have corrected obvious misspellings but I've left variant spellings alone. Some words and names, like yojana and Gāruda, were spelled two different ways in the same text. I have spelled them consistently to avoid confusion.

About This Book

This section follows a devoted emissary who crosses the sea, infiltrates the enemy city, confirms the captive's fate, and wreaks destructive havoc before returning. The principal hero greets the news with gratitude but remains anxious about crossing the ocean, prompting counsel from allied monkey leaders who urge renewed courage and propose construction of a bridge. Plans concentrate on marshaling immense, shape-shifting forces and employing engineering and divine aid to reach the fortress and defeat the demon king. Vivid landscape descriptions, demonstrations of loyalty and duty, and preparations for a large-scale siege structure the narrative toward an impending battle.
