In the Padma Purana,
Many women, radiant like the evening twilight, bathed him with reverence, using golden pitchers that shone like the young sun. (13)
Others bathed him with excellent pitchers made of lapis lazuli, as if the goddesses of fortune themselves were bathing him with lotus petals. (14)
Some bathed him with pitchers red like the morning sun, others with pitchers white like the inside of a banana tree, and still others with pitchers that attracted swarms of bees with their fragrance. (15)
Before his bath, beautiful women with graceful movements rubbed him with various fragrant pastes. Then, seated on a magnificent throne adorned with the brilliance of many gems, he bathed. (16)
After bathing, he adorned himself and, filled with noble emotions, re-entered the temple of Shantinath. (17)
There, with devotion to praise, he performed the highest worship of the Arhant, offering prostrations with his mind, speech, and body. Then he entered the dining hall. (18)
Having consumed four types of excellent food, the king went to the playground to test his knowledge. (19)
Through the power of his knowledge, he created many forms and performed various wondrous deeds that were beyond the reach of other celestial beings. (20)
He struck the earth so hard that it trembled, and the bodies of his enemies on it spun around. The enemy army, terrified, cried out in fear of death. (21)
Then the ministers said to Ravana, who had finished testing his knowledge, "O King, there is no one else who can kill Rama now that you have been released." (22)
"In the battlefield, when he is angry and releases his arrows, no one else is capable of standing before him except you." (23)
Ravana, endowed with great powers, created a vast army through the power of his knowledge. Wearing the jewel-studded discus, he set out towards the garden of pleasure where Sita resided. (24)
Surrounded by wise and valiant ministers, Ravana appeared like Indra surrounded by the gods. Or, like the sun, he advanced without hindrance. (25)
