He even presumed that Añjana was also having a soft corner for Vidyutprabha, that's why she neither objected to her hand-maid's criticism of Pavanañjai, nor did she remain disinterested in it -- नूनमस्याः प्रियोऽसौ ना कन्याया येन पार्श्वगाम। मज्जुगुप्यनसंसक्तां न मनागप्यवीवदत् ।। (Ibid, 176) This manufactured a great misunderstanding, hence Pavanañjai refused to marry her. But, on pressure from above, he agreed; deciding in his heart that he would retaliate his insult by not sharing the sexual-pleasure with her after marriage -- समुह्य शातयाम्येनां दुःखेनासङ्गजन्मना। येनान्यतोऽपि नैवेषा प्राप्नोति पुरुषात्सुखम्।। (Ibid, 217) 12. ततो गिरौ पपातैष इन्द्रवज्राभिताडितः। पतमानस्य चैतस्य वामा हनुरभज्यत।। (Valmikiya, 7/35/47) 13.

He even abused & insulted her ( 16188). He was so furious that he did not even wish to see her face (16/96). The poor Anjana pleaded for his favour, but always met with reprimand. Pavananjai remained quite a look from her. But, once during the course of his journey to join with Rāvana in his battle against Varuna, ( 16/57-81 ), Pavanañjai happens to see a female ruddyJain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
