Description

With a single shaft the Lord then struck Ravana's umbrella and crowns as well as Mandodari's ear-drops, which fell to the ground before the very eyes of all; but none could know the mystery. Having performed this startling feat Sri Rama's shaft came back and dropped into His quiver again. And everybody in Ravana's assembly was alarmed to see this great interruption in his revelry.
