Sundara Kandam - Chapter 48 - Tying of Hanuman by Brahmaastra

Sarga 48 - Sundarakanda of Valmiki Ramayana - Tying of Hanuman by Brahmaastra #sundarakanda #sundarakandaparayanam #valmikiramayana
Ravana calls Indrajit and asks him to go for a battle against Hanuman. Indrajit wields a colourful bow quickly in a chariot to face Hanuman in combat. The arrows discharged by Indrajit are made ineffective by Hanuman, through his peculiar skill of manoeuvring them like a wind-god. Realizing that Hanuman cannot be slain, Indrajit merely takes him captive by discharging the unfailing missile presided over by Brahma, the creator. Hanuma falls to the ground motionless. The demons tie him with ropes and drag him to the presence of Ravana. Even though capable of aborting it, Hanuman yields to their operation of capture, eager to meet Ravana.
