Week 3 - Reading Diary B

The part where Rama is allowed to build a bridge with the help of his comrades and other animals reminds me of when Noah is building his ark in the Bible. Finally a full out war begins between Rama and Ravana's parties. Rama defeats Kumbakarna and Mahodara. His brother Lakshmana defeats Indrajit, Ravana's son. Eventually Rama and Ravana engage in a multi day battle that ends with Rama sending his Brahmastra into Ravana's heart. Rama returns to Ayodha after 14 years of exile to reclaim his rightful place from a very gracious Bharata who is about to commit suicide if Rama does not show up.
