जब लक्ष्मणने सूर्यहास खड्ग अपने आधीन कर लिया और चन्द्रनखाको जब राम-लक्ष्मणने चाहा नहीं तब उसने अपने पति खरदूषणको रोषयुक्त कर दिया अर्थात् विपरीत भिड़ाकर उसे कुपित कर दिया ॥७३॥ सहायताके लिए जबतक महाबलवान् राक्षसोंके स्वामी-रावणको बुलाया तबतक खरदूषण शीघ्र ही युद्ध करनेके लिए रामके समीप आया ॥७४॥ उधर लक्ष्मण जबतक खरदूषणके साथ विकट युद्ध करता है तबतक इधर अतिशय बलवान् रावण उस स्थानपर आता है ॥७५।। यद्यपि रावण धर्म-अधर्मके विवेकको जाननेवाला एवं समस्त शास्त्रोंका विशारद था, तो भी वह क्षुद्र आपको देख मनके वशीभूत हो गया ॥७६।। तदनन्तर जिसकी समस्त नीति भ्रष्ट हो गयी थी और चेतना निःसार हो चुकी थी ऐसे उस रावणने आपको चुरानेके लिए मायामय सिंहनाद किया ॥७७|| उस सिंहनादको सुन जबतक राम, युद्धमें स्थित लक्ष्मणके पास गये तबतक यह पापी तुम्हें हरकर यहाँ ले आया ॥७८॥ उधर लक्ष्मणने शीघ्र ही युद्धक्षेत्रसे रामको वापस किया सो वहाँसे आकर जब वे पुनः उस स्थानपर आये तब हे पतिव्रते ! उन्होंने तुम्हें नहीं देखा ॥७९॥ तदनन्तर तुम्हें खोजनेके लिए चिरकाल तक वनमें भ्रमण कर उन्होंने शिथिल प्राण एवं मरणासन्न जटायुको देखा ॥८०॥ तदनन्तर उस मरणोन्मुखके लिए जिनेन्द्र धर्मका उपदेश देकर वे दुःखी हो वनमें बैठ गये । उस समय उनका मन एक आपमें ही लग रहा था ॥८१॥
लक्ष्मण, खरदूषणको मारकर रामके पास आये और रत्नजटी तुम्हारे पतिके लिए तुम्हारा वत्तान्त ले आया।८२॥ इसो बीच में सग्रीवके रूपसे यक्त साहसगति नामका विद्याधर रामको मारने के लिए उद्यत हुआ परन्तु रामके प्रभावसे विद्यासे रहित होनेके कारण वह स्वयं मारा गया ।।८३।। इस प्रकार रामने हमारे कुलको पवित्र करनेवाला यह जो महान् उपकार किया था उसका बदला चुकानेके लिए हो गुरुजनोंने मुझे भेजा है ॥८४॥ मैं तुम्हें प्रीतिपूर्वक छुड़वाता हूँ। युद्ध करना निष्प्रयोजन है क्योंकि नीतिज्ञ मनुष्योंको सब तरहसे कार्यकी सिद्धि करना ही संसारमें इष्ट है ॥८५॥ यह लंकापुरीका राजा रावण दयालु है, विनयी है, धर्म-अर्थ-कामरूप त्रिवर्गसे सहित है, धीर है, हृदयसे अत्यन्त कोमल है ।।८६।। सौम्य है, क्रूरतासे रहित है और सत्यव्रतका पालनेवाला है, अतः निश्चित ही मेरा कहा करेगा और तुम्हें मेरे लिए सौंप देगा ॥८॥

## The Thirty-Fifth Chapter
### 329

When Lakshmana had taken possession of the Suryahaasa sword, and when Chandranakha did not want Rama and Lakshmana, she enraged her husband Kharadushana, that is, she provoked him by opposing them. ||73||

Until the mighty lord of the Rakshasas, Ravana, was called for help, Kharadushana quickly approached Rama to fight. ||74||

While Lakshmana fiercely fought Kharadushana, Ravana, with immense strength, arrived at that place. ||75||

Although Ravana was knowledgeable in the discernment of Dharma and Adharma, and a scholar of all scriptures, he was captivated by the sight of you, becoming subservient to his mind. ||76||

Then, Ravana, whose entire policy had become corrupt and whose consciousness had become devoid of essence, made a magical lion's roar to abduct you. ||77||

When Rama, hearing the lion's roar, went to Lakshmana, who was engaged in battle, this sinner had already taken you and brought you here. ||78||

Lakshmana, having quickly sent Rama back from the battlefield, returned to that place, but, O virtuous wife, he did not see you there. ||79||

Then, searching for you, he wandered in the forest for a long time and saw Jatayu, with weakened life and near death. ||80||

Then, giving him the teachings of the Jina Dharma, he sat in the forest, filled with sorrow, his mind fixed only on you. ||81||

Lakshmana, having killed Kharadushana, returned to Rama and brought the news of your abduction to your husband, who was adorned with a garland of jewels. ||82||

Meanwhile, a Vidyadhara named Saahasagati, disguised as Sugriva, was ready to kill Rama, but due to Rama's influence, he was devoid of his powers and was killed himself. ||83||

Thus, for the great favor Rama had done to our clan, purifying it, I have been sent by my teachers and elders to repay the debt. ||84||

I will gladly free you. Fighting is pointless, for wise men consider the accomplishment of their goals as the most desirable thing in the world. ||85||

This king of Lanka, Ravana, is compassionate, humble, possessed of the three goals of Dharma, Artha, and Kama, courageous, and extremely gentle at heart. ||86||

He is kind, free from cruelty, and a follower of truth. Therefore, he will surely heed my words and hand you over to me. ||87||
