रावण हारा राम से, भागा जान बचाय।अहंकार तो टूट गया, हठ ना छोड़ा जाय।।Episode 91 of the conversations between Yogita Pant and Anil Chawla describes the second part of the battle that took place after Raavan came to fight. As Hanuman was temporarily incapacitated, Raavan decided to fight with Neel, the chief of Vaanar Sena. The techniques used by Vaanar warriors of throwing mountain tops and trees were not effective against Raavan. Every time Neel threw something, Raavan’s arrows stopped the object mid-air. Raavan started showering arrows on Neel. As a protection against the arrows, Neel reduced his size and became very small. Neel climbed on the top of Raavan’s chariot and started mocking him. Neel’s antics infuriated Raavan who decided to use an arrow containing fire on him. Neel fell to the ground but did not die since, as son of fire, he was protected from fire. After the fall of Neel, Raavan turned to Lakshman who was surely a strong opponent for him. Lakshman gave him a good fight. Raavan used a special weapon provided to him by Brahma on Lakshman. The weapon grounded Lakshman. After Lakshman fell to the ground, Raavan tried to lift him up and carry him away. Raavan failed to do so. At this time Hanuman came and hit Raavan in the chest with a strong blow forcing Raavan to withdraw to his chariot. However, Raavan was soon back. This time he was countered by Ram on the back of Hanuman. Ram destroyed his chariot, horses, flag and even his bow. Ram hit Raavan in the chest which hurt Raavan deeply. Ram could have killed Raavan with one more arrow but ordered him to go back and come later with a new chariot and bow. (Ref. Chapters 59, Yuddh Kand, Shreemad Valmikiy Ramayan)  ***** श्रीमद्वाल्मीकीय रामायण विश्व का प्राचीनतम ग्रन्थ है। इसे आदिग्रन्थ कहा गया है। इसमें राम के जीवन का विस्तारपूर्वक वर्णन किया गया है। इसमें राम का चित्रण एक ऐसे मनुष्य के रूप में किया गया है जो संघर्ष करता है, परिश्रम करता है, जीवन के द्वन्द्वों का सामना करता है, अपने सहयोगियों एवं निकटस्थ व्यक्तियों से चर्चा करता है और विद्वतजनों से मार्गदर्शन प्राप्त करता है। वह धर्म एवं आदर्श के पथ से कभी हटता नहीं है। उन्हें मर्यादा पुरुषोत्तम कहा गया है। उनके जीवन का हर प्रसंग शिक्षाप्रद है, प्रेरणादायक है। चर्चा की इस श्रृंखला का उद्देश्य दर्शकों को राम के जीवन से परिचित कराना है। राम के जीवन को जान कर, समझ कर और आचरण में उतार कर हम अपने जीवन को सुखद एवं समृद्ध बना सकते हैं। समस्त सुधीजनों को अनेकानेक शुभकामनाओं के साथ विनम्रतापूर्वक समर्पित। Valmiki Ramayan is the original epic which narrates the story of Ram.
