Dadhimukh immediately returned to Madhu Van through skyway. Dadhimukh said to Angad - "Hey brave Angad, Please pardon me for stopping you eating these fruits. It was only because of my ignorance. This Madhu Van is yours. You are coming from very far, so you must be tired. Take some rest and enjoy yourself. I told your uncle Sugreev about your coming and destruction of Madhu Van. He got very happy to hear this and asked me to send you there immediately."

Angad said to Vaanar - "Since Raam and Lakshman have known this, so we should not be late now to go there. I will not do anything without your consent in spite of being Crown Prince, nor I want to insult you by saying anything unjustified." All Vaanar said -"Who can say such polite words except you? No Vaanar is ready to go anywhere without your orders. Know it for sure." Angad said - "Then let us go to Sugreev".

Sugreev said to Raam - "Raam, Keep patience. I am sure they have found Seetaa. If this has not happened they could not have come after finishing the time period. Angad's happiness is the proof of that. And only Hanumaan must have seen Seetaa, not any other Vaanar, because only Hanumaan is so brave and mighty. and has knowledge and wisdom. And in whatever group is Angad, Jaambvaan and Hanumaan, that group cannot go out of limits, because they are successful in their mission that is why they got proud and drank honey from Madhu Van."

[Sugreev was talking thus that] All Vaanar came there. Hanumaan greeted Raam and said - "I saw Seetaa. She is fasting to leave Her body." When Raam Lakshman heard this they got very happy and they looked at Hanumaan with respect.

Sarg 65 - Hanumaan Tells His Story to Raam

First Hanumaan greeted Seetaa in his heart then told the story - "I went to Lankaa, in south, after crossing a 100-Yojan wide sea and I saw Seetaa there only. She is always surrounded by horrible Raakshasee. They frighten Her, they threaten Her, they guard Her as well. She is just passing Her time remembering you, wearing only one plait. She sleeps on the ground. Because of cold Her body has become dry. Raavan doesn't listen to Her, so She has decided to kill Herself.

When I had found Her, I praised Ikshwaaku Vansh to get Her trust and then started talking to Her. I told Her everything. She told me the incident of crow, as it happened on Chitrakoot Parvat as Her mark, and said that I should remind you about that. She gave me Her Choodaamani also."

Hanumaan told all this in front of Sugreev. He said again - "Hey Bhagvan, I have brought this Mani very carefully. She has said - "I am giving you this Mani as a mark. It has come from sea, I get happy to see this Mani as I am being happy to see you in this sorrowful time. Tell Raam that I will live only for one month, after that I will die. Now you make arrangements to go across the sea."
