Hanumanji within no time landed on the shores of Lanka. He saw beautiful gardens and groves all around. In one of the palaces, Hanumanji overheard someone chanting 'Ram', 'Ram'. This was where Vibhishan stayed. Hanumanji developed a good relationship with Vibhishan and Vibhishan narrated the difficulties he faced in Lanka. Hanumanji reached 'Ashok Vatika' where Mother Sita was held captive. He entered 'Ashok Vatika' and landed on a tree. He thought to himself that the lady sitting beneath this tree should be none other but Mother Sita. At that time Ravan arrived and spoke to Sita. "O, the beautiful-faced Vaidehi, please cast a glance at me, then I will compel Mandodari and other queens to become your slaves. Goddess Sita without paying any heed to Ravan said, "O treacherous Ravan, light of glowworms is never adequate enough for blossoming lotus flowers, only the Sun has the capability to do so." Ravan felt insulted as he understood that Ram was compared to the Sun and he to a tiny glow-worm. Here Goddess Sita's confidence in Lord Ram's capabilities is evident. She was certain that Lord Ram would reach Lanka to protect and rescue her.

Remembering Lord Ram, Hanumanji jumped onto the mountain with great force and departed towards Lanka. On the way, He got an opportunity to take rest on mountain Mainak which had huge gold reserves. But he thought, unless and until I accomplish the task entrusted to me by my divine God, where is the question of rest and relaxation. Here we learn the importance of commitment towards one’s goals and how one must not be affected by surrounding distractions. Then, Surasa the serpant appeared to devour him. With folded hands, Hanumanji pleaded with her, "Mother I will voluntarily enter your mouth and satisfy your hunger after completing Lord Ram's mission." But it was not acceptable to Surasa and eventually Hanumanji agreed. Surasa opened her mouth widely to catch Hanumanji but he transformed into a very tiny form and entered her mouth and came out unharmed . Here, Hanumanjis intelligence in overcoming obstacles in his path is seen and his singular determination and perseverance in achieving Lord Ram's goal is highlighted.

Hanumanji got inspiration from everybody's encouragement and agreed to travel to Lanka. He addressed all of them, “My dear brothers, I am now leaving, but till I return, you have to wait for my arrival. I assure you that my return is definite after completion of the divine work given to me by Shri Ram. In my absence no one should remain hungry, you must take care of your health." Here Hanumanji emphasizes the positive mindset and confidence of his mission. Also he is ensuring that the entire team maintains their mental and physical health for their futuristic efforts to bring back Goddess Sita. Hanumanji warned his team not to leave their spots. He explained saying, "When I return after meeting mother Sita, it will be better if we all go together to convey the happy news to Lord Ram." Here he does not desire to take the entire credit for success himself alone. It teaches us to include every team member in the successful completion of a mission.
