Sundara Kaanda Sargas 61
Sundara Kaanda - Sarga 61
In this Sarga, the Vānaras take flight to go back to Rāma and Sugreeva, eager to give the good news and resolute on helping Rāma take revenge. On their way they come across the Madhuvana that was maintained and protected by Sugreeva, and was guarded by his maternal uncle Dadhimukha.
The Vānaras seek the permission of Aṅgada to drink the liquor in that Vana, which he grants after consulting senior Vānaras like Jāmbavan. Intoxicated after consuming the liquor, they have all the fun and frolic in the world pushing each other, jumping up and down and so on.
Seeing them destroy everything, Dadhimukha tries to stop them in every which way possible, yelling, hitting and reasoning with them. But intoxicated, they turn against him, drag him about and beat him almost to death. They empty the Vana completely.
