The seventeenth chapter:
The king, Prati-Surya, then said, "Oh, what a great wonder this is! Just as if by a thunderbolt, this stone mass has been pulverized." (395)
"Even as an infant, his power surpasses that of the greatest gods. What can be said of his youth? This body is surely his last." (396)
Knowing this, Prati-Surya, with his hands clasped in reverence, circumambulated the child three times and, along with his wives, paid homage to his final body. (397)
His wives, with their white, black, and red eyes, looked upon him with smiles, as if they were worshipping him with garlands of white, blue, and red lotuses. (398)
Then, Prati-Surya, placing his son and Anjana in a chariot, departed for his own city, adorned with flags and arches. (399)
He then entered the city, greeted by the townspeople bearing auspicious offerings. The sky was filled with the sound of trumpets and other musical instruments. (400)
Just as the gods celebrate the birth of Indra in heaven, so too did the Vidyadharas celebrate the birth of this child in the city of Hanuruh. (401)
Because the child was born in a mountain (Shaila) and later pulverized stones (Shaila), his mother, along with his maternal uncle, named him "Shreeshala." (402)
Because he received his birth rites in the city of Hanuruh, he became known throughout the earth as "Hanuman." (403)
His body, whose actions filled the minds and eyes of all beings with joy, and whose radiance was like that of a divine prince, played in that city. (404)
Gautama Swami said to King Shrenik, "O King! By the power of accumulated virtuous deeds from a previous life, even a thunderbolt, which can pulverize mountains, becomes as soft as a flower. Even fire becomes as cool as the rays of the moon, and a creeper, even if it is like a sword, becomes soft and tender in the hands of beautiful women. (405)
