________________ Hanumana entering the mouth of Āśālikāvidya Bibhisana was scared that the folly his brother would route the entire clan Räksasas. He had therefore installed a fierc vidyā called Asalikā at the entrance of th rampart surrounding Lankā. This vidyā wa fierce as calamity and was surrounded b fire. She hissed like a legion of snakes. He mouth was constantly open. She would no let any stranger in. When anyone tried to en ter Lankā, she would just grab and swallow him. When Hanumana reached the outskirts of Lankā, he came face to face with the fierce Asalikā. When the Vidyā noticed Hanumāna she shouted, “O foolish ! Where are you of to? I am hungry; probably the benevolen providence has sent you to be my lunch." With these mocking words, she opened her mouth wide, and in entered the valiant fearless Hanumāna alongwith his mace. The vidya closed her mouth, all pleased with herself but Hanumāna tore open her stomach and came out like the radiant sun, who emerges out of thick black clouds. www.jainelibrary.org Educ a tional For Personal Private Use Only
