## Padma Purana
**1**
Having strung his bow, the valiant one, resembling a mountain of wealth, ran towards Padma. He showered him with arrows, making the space between them a torrent of shafts. The son of Kakutstha established a pavilion of arrows.
The battle between him and the valiant Saahasayana was a fitting one, for he who fights for a long time brings joy to Padma.
Then, after engaging in a long and glorious battle, the son of Raghu severed the armor of Kshurapresya with his arrows.
The body of Saahasayana, riddled with sharp arrows, became like a sieve. He fell to the earth, his radiance gone, embracing the ground.
All the curious Vidyadharas gathered around and recognized him with certainty as the wicked Saahasayana.
Then, along with his brother, Sugreeva worshipped Rama, praising him with beautiful hymns, filled with great joy.
He went to meet his beloved, carrying the utmost longing, to bring about the ultimate beauty in the city, free from thorns.
He was so immersed in the ocean of pleasures that he did not know day or night. He had been seen after a long time, and so he had surrendered all his consciousness to the Sutara.
After spending one night outside the city, Rama and the other kings, accompanied by their mighty forces, entered Kishkindha with great splendor.
They settled in the Anandavana, a garden that rivaled the beauty of Nandana, enjoying themselves as freely as the guardians of the world.
To describe this garden is to describe its beauty beyond words. Who is capable of describing its virtues?
There was a beautiful temple in the garden, adorned with the image of Chandra Prabha. Rama and Lakshmana, after bowing to Chandra Prabha, the destroyer of all obstacles, resided there.
