In the Padma Purana,
Ravana, fearless and without fear, said to the frightened Mandodari, "Why are you filled with fear without any reason?" ||117||
"Oh beautiful one! There is no man greater than me. Why are you clinging to this false fear because of your womanhood?" ||118||
"You said that you were informing me of the rise of another side. But, oh Devi, let me tell you clearly, there are many men who bear the name Narayana and Baldeva. Does the mere attainment of a name bring about the fulfillment of a task?" ||119-120||
"Oh fearful one! If someone, be it a beast or a man, is given the name Siddha, does he attain the happiness of Siddhahood merely by the name?" ||121||
"Just as I made Indra, the lord of the city of Rathnapur, attain the state of Anindra, you see how I have made this Narayana into Anarayan." ||122||
Thus, boasting of his strength, the mighty Ravana, whose body was covered in a sheet of his own brilliance, and whose actions were dependent on Yama, entered the pleasure house with Mandodari, just as Indra enters with Lakshmi. ||123-124||
Then, as the time of evening arrived, the sun, whose disc was setting due to the twilight, contracted its rays, just as a sage contracts his passions. ||125||
The sun, red with the twilight, seemed to be scolding the day, as if it were being bitten by the lips of the twilight, and then disappeared somewhere. ||126||
The lotuses, with their folded petals, seemed to be offering their lotus-like hands, while the cries of the swans mourned the setting sun. ||127||
As the sun set, the army of planets and stars arrived on the same path, as if the moon had released them to roam freely, giving them permission. ||128||
Then, as the evening, illuminated by the jewels of the lamps, appeared, Lanka, shining with its brilliance, resembled the peak of Mount Meru. ||129||
