Image title: Having finally realised that this great monkey is no ordinary one as he has managed to slay all the ministers and the generals sent to capture him, Rāvaṇa has summoned his foremost son Indrajit and asked him to go into battle against Hanumān. Indrajit had previously acquired great magical powers and many of the celestial weapons presided over by the gods. He rushes to meet Hanumān in his battle chariot drawn by four tigers. He then fires his magic arrows at Hanumān, who manages to evade the worst and retaliates by hurling rocks and trees at his opponent. Indrajit finally unleashes the weapon that is under the power of the creator god BrahmÄ, represented here by the presence of the god himself. Hanumān decides that he has to allow himself to be captured as he wants to meet Rāvaṇa, and knows in any case that he is under the protection of the gods, so he falls on the ground motionless.
