Chapter 30
Urmila looked at the clear sky. The sun shining through the clouds and the flowers dancing to gentle breeze made her feel that was an important day. Her heart started murmuring someone was going to reach Lanka that day with the message of her Jijashree. Unknowingly Urmila smiled and decided she needed to inform her sisters and mother's her feelings.
Though news had reached Ayodhya that Sugreeva's monkey army had been dispersed in all four directions in search of Sita mothers remained concerned. The most worrying thought for them was if Ravan had indeed taken Sita to Lanka how would someone reach that land crossing the ocean. She had to let them know she had got divine message earlier itself a monkey would reach Sita didi. Ram jeeju's alliance with monkey king Sugreeva had proved her assumption was right. Today her heart was telling it was going to be that day for the whole universe when a messenger of Ram was going to do something that would make the world sit up and notice.
Lakshman looked at his brother. He knew his brother had spoken something in private to Hanuman as he was confident Hanuman would reach Sita bhabi. Today the gentle breeze was making him feel soon his brother's intuition was going to be proven right. He felt as if Hanuman was almost near in fulfilling his life purpose. The purpose for which he had waited long to meet Ram. When it started raining slightly he decided his instinct was true because the rain was symbolic of Urmila's belief which was resonating with his. He needed to cheer up his bhaiyya who looked forlorn.
Kailash was busy. The entire Devas had assembled there and Parvati was busy attending to her guests. Mahadev smiled seeing the festive atmosphere and he could see his sons Ganesh and Karthikeya waiting to see the historic moment when Rudravatar Hanuman will take the flight to Lanka.
"Father you said today Hanuman will reach Lanka. But look at him. He is sitting clueless while other monkeys are trying to find who among them can jump 100 yojanas," came in Karthikeya looking impatient.
"Son someone has to lift Hanuman's curse. Someone has to remind him of the story when he jumped to catch the sun. Soon the wise Jambavan will do it," replied Mahadev and as Karthikeya looked back he could see Jambavan walking towards Hanuman.
"Mother look down, look down the historic moment is arriving," shouted Karthikeya excitedly and Parvati asked everyone to see the most important part of Narayan's leela. Gods and Goddess waited with bated breath as they saw Jambavan talking to Hanuman about his heroic deeds of childhood.
He spoke to Hanuman about the curse he had incurred due to his naughtiness and now it was time to remember who he really was. Jambavan mentioned the reason he had always wanted to meet Ram was because his life purpose was to help Ram. He was given divine powers to be utilized in the service of Ram. So he asked Hanuman to shed the fear and fulfill the call of his destiny. He was the one who was chosen to meet Sita. Ram believed he could do that. That was why he had given his ring and personal information to him. It was time to deliver on the trust Ram had kept on him.
In Kailash bells started ringing and the Mahadev's Bhootgan started dancing along with the apsaras. Gandharvas started playing the musical instruments as Goddess Parvati looked down proudly at Hanuman who was now standing on the top of mountain Mahendra to make the jump.
They could see the entire monkey army wishing Hanuman luck. The leader of the team Angad was mentioning if he reached Sita then the whole monkeys who went to South can return home proudly. They can even eat the fruits that were in Madhuvan because uncle Sugreeva won't get angry with them. Parvati smiled. Whatever the heroics the monkeys never lost an opportunity to show their naughtiness.
Soon the entire Kailash started reverberating with the sound of " Jai Hanuman " as Rudravatar jumped. In the cacophony of noises that followed Parvati had to shout to make everyone listen to her.
As all the Gods and Goddess turned towards her, she smiled and started speaking.
"Today Hanuman has jumped the ocean to remove the pain of Srihari and Mahalakshmi. Anyone who worships him and follows him will be guided by divine powers so that they can remove the pain of fellow humans. Just like Hanuman realized the power within him the one who decides to wipe the tears of others will understand they have immense power within them to do so. Hence today me Goddess Parvati wants to call Hanuman "Sankatmochan".
Mahadev smiled seeing his proud wife. It was true. The life purpose of his Rudravatar was to remove pain and he knew a more challenging mission was coming Hanuman's way, a mission for which not just his divine powers are enough which also needs the power of the woman who was steadfastly doing her duty for past 13 years.
Seeing her husband silent Parvati walked towards him and asked whether he was thinking about Urmila. Mahadev nodded and Parvati mentioned Urmila was in her care. If she feels unsure even for a second, Ganesh would ensure that doubt is removed. Parvati asked Mahadev to trust the woman who had so far carried herself with dignity.
Sun was setting as Hanuman landed in Lanka. It was as if the universe itself was signaling the time has come to destroy the golden Lanka that prided itself on its wealth and might.
In Ayodhya the bright burning lamp in front of Parvati idol assured the mothers that what Urmila told was true. Good news was on its way. In Kishkinda Lakshman could see a slight smile on his brother's lips as if his heart had known Hanuman had reached Sita bhabi.
