Padma Purana
The one who is separated from his relatives, he is bound to be afflicted with grief, which is like a huge force that destroys memory. ||42||
Even though I am wandering in this endless cycle of birth and death, I should consider that everyone is my relative in this world and hide my grief. ||43||
Therefore, with all your strength, devote your mind and soul to the teachings of the Jinas, who are the destroyers of the cycle of birth and death, for your own benefit. ||44||
With such sweet and heart-touching words, Vibhishana comforted everyone and then went home. ||45||
He sent his queen, Vidagdha, who was the most intelligent among a thousand women and was skilled in all matters, to Rama. ||46||
Vidagdha, who knew the proper etiquette, approached Rama and Lakshmana with Sita and paid her respects to them. Then she said, "O Lord! Please consider our master's house as your own and purify it with the touch of your feet." ||47-48||
While this conversation was taking place, Vibhishana himself arrived with great respect. ||49||
As soon as he arrived, he said, "Rise, let us go home and be happy." Thus, at Vibhishana's request, Rama, along with his followers, prepared to go to his house. ||50||
The royal road was decorated continuously, and they rode on various vehicles, including elephants as tall as clouds, horses as swift as waves, and chariots adorned like palaces, in an orderly procession towards Vibhishana's house. ||51-52||
The sound of trumpets arose, as loud as the roar of clouds during the deluge, mixed with the sound of millions of conch shells, echoing in the caves. ||53||
The sky was filled with the sound of various musical instruments, including bhambha, bheri, mridanga, thousands of patha, lampaka, kahala, dhundhu, dundubhi, jhanjh, amlatak, dhakka, haika, gunja, hukar, and sunda. ||54-55||
The sound of halhala, loud laughter, and the noise of various vehicles made the directions deaf. ||56||
The things that have been experienced and seen, only cause a moment of sorrow in the minds of good men, not more. ||41||
The one who is separated from his relatives, he is bound to be afflicted with grief, which is like a huge force that destroys memory. ||42||

Many vidyadharas were on the backs of tigers.
