English Commentary

On killing Viradha, the demon of terrific strength, heroic Rama embraced Sita, consoled her and said to his brother Lakshmana, glowing like fire: Rama, Sita and Lakshmana meet sage Sarabhanga -- Rama enquires about Devendra's visit -- Sarabhanga advises Rama to go to the hermitage of Sutikshna -- with the desire to go to the world of the Brahman, Sarabhanga enters the fire.
