 As we have seen, the attitude of Indrajit towards Rama and Lakshmana changes completely from the first war to the third war with Lakshmana. With the sacrificial fire at Nikumbhila having been destroyed and with his end showing up completely, Indrajit stood up with determination to do his best for his father. The completion of the Yaga would have bestowed him with invincibility. The rites stipulated that he should not rise up until the completion of the Yaga. In case someone moved in war with him, succeeded in destroying the Yaga and made him move away from his seat during its performance, then it was a forewarning that that person would vanquish Indrajit.
-But Indrajit, even at that critical point of time, was worried about the safety of his country, his race and more importantly of his father, rather than that of his own. He rushed back to his palace, vanishing from the battlefield, to warn Ravana of his realisation that it was Narayana who had come in the form of Rama and Lakshmana. (See: The last encounter and [http://www.heritagewiki.org/index.php?title=Lakshmana_Vs_Indrajit_-_Part_2#Lakshmana_the_Supreme_II Lakshmana the Supreme II])

 Though Ravana’s personal loss till that moment was exceedingly great, and though he had – like a flash in the oven – cursed himself for his desire for Sita for a fleeting moment, his heart was still not amenable to reason. ‘Do not allege me that I am afraid, father. ‘aasaidhaan ach cheedhai paal vidudhi.’ Give up the desire that you have for Sita and send her back. That would assuage their anger and they would go back. ‘un mEl kaadhalaal uraiththEn.’ I say all this out of my love for you.

-Unlike Kumbhakarna, Atikaya was not pushed into war. The handsome and very powerful second son of Ravana was unable to bear the loss of reputation that his father has been suffering and threw himself voluntarily into mending it. Atikaya wanted to avenge for the death of Kumbakarna and therefore he chose to fight with Lakshmana and kill him in order that Rama undergoes the same kind of sufferings that his father was undergoing, with the loss of his brother. (See: The Battle with Atikaya I and II)

 The battle with Atikaya, though not an easy one, was very short in duration. Lakshmana brought him down. Sri VVS Aiyar captures the emotions of Ravana when the messengers from the battlefield came to him for conveying the message of death of Atikaya. Here is a snapshot that Sri Aiyar gives from Kamban.

 “Deeply pondering with his mind, the cruel Ravana, who was tormented by the death of his (eldest) son (Indrajit) and overpowered by anger, resolved to kill Sita.” (Valmiki Ramayana, Yuddha Kanda, Canto XCII, Sloka 34). ‘van thazhaik kallin nenjin vanjagathaaLai vaaLaal kondru izhaithiduvEn,’ I will kill that woman of pitiless heart, whose mind is as hard as a stone, who is full of deceit, with my sword. So saying, he rushed to the Asoka Vana with his sword unsheathed and held high in hand.
-There were other occasions earlier, which we have seen in detail, when Ravana stepped forward as if to kill, unsheathed the sword and even held it high. But that had never frightened her. ‘ennnayum kollaai.’ You would kill neither me. ‘innum unnayum kollaai.’ ‘Nor would you be able to kill yourself’, she had scoffed. (See: Maya Janaka IV). She knew that Ravana would not be able to kill her, at least for the period of one year that he had laid down for her. But the situation was not the same now. Ravana was extremely serious about his action. His fury had taken an entirely different shape now. He was merely threatening in the earlier instances. But he is determined to kill her now.

 Sita reads his intentions from his very gait, from his very visage, from the manner in which he is holding his sword. We see her in a different mood now.

 I am narrating this only to show that even the chief of the core army, the very last of resources that he counted on, was not in favour of his misadventure; was not in favour of a war with Sri Rama but agreed to do so merely because it was too late and they were left with no choice.
-Ravana is stripped bare of all his dear ones, all his friends, all his reliable soldiers. The mUla bala sainya is marching into the field of action, striking terror all around. The monkey chiefs were so terrified, that we saw them running away from the battlefield, in our earlier discussions. (See: Loyalty turning into hostility). Angada collected them with great difficulty. If Ravana said that he would ‘vanquish all the Vanara host all by himself,’ he did not mean it literally. What he meant was that he, assisted by a vast contingent of his army, would do so. But Rama decided, decided in split-second, that he would handle the situation all by himself, fighting all the millions of ogres single-handedly, alone and unassisted.

 While Rama was engaged in a fierce battle with the mUla bala sainya, Ravana sneaked in from the other side. ‘Appear where you are least expected,’ says Sun Tzu, in his Art of War. If one studies the strategies of Ravana, it can be seen that his techniques go very well with the strategies that Sun Tzu details. But this was an enemy who clearly foresees all kinds of moves now! Rama had put Lakshmana aided by Hanuman with the specific instruction that they should be on guard against the surprise attack of Ravana!
-That led to a fierce combat between Lakshmana and Ravana. This battle was described in detail in our study of Lakshmana. Ravana was enraged by Vibishana who was acting as the resource person for Lakshmana and countering his divine missiles. He, in a fit of rage, hurled his lance, Shakthi, an unfailing missile on Vibishana. Lakshmana offered himself gladly, in order to protect Vibishana. (See: The attempt on Vibishana, Remarkable hero and A solider to the core) Ravana was overjoyed that his Shakthi, aimed at Vibishana, struck Lakshmana instead, without his having to make any attempt on the offensive against that impregnable hero. He returned to his palace that day, happy and contented for the last time of having eliminated Lakshmana, in the full knowledge that Sri Rama would not be able to stand the bereavement of his brother and would either go back or give his life up.

 He threw a grand party on his return, with the firm belief that he has succeeded at last. But it was his last day of happiness. He did not have much time afterwards. He had to come back to the field very soon to face the person who he was avoiding all these days. Here emerges the real Ravana. The warrior that he was.

 The war between Rama and Ravana lasted for seven days. ‘rama ravanayor yuddham rama ravanyoriva’ sang Valmiki. “the struggle between Sri Rama and Ravana can be likened only to the struggle between Sri Rama and Ravana.” We have seen only portions of it from the angle of Ravana. The glory of it is yet to come. What we have seen so far is only a preparation of ground for a detailed study when we take up Rama.
-Kamban is very particular that the fair name of Sita is not affected in any manner. In the beginning, when Surpanakha stoked the fire of lust in Ravana, Kamban made a mention. mayiludaich chaayalaaLai vanjiyaa munnam,’ Even before he abducted Sita (and isolated her in prison) ‘nINda eyiludai ilangai vEndhan idhayamam sirayil vaiththaan’ Ravana arrested and imprisoned her in the gaol of his heart. (See: A tender feeling?)

 Kamban remembers that the prison of Ravana’s heart needs to be opened now. He is very particular that the heart of Ravana is cleansed before he dies. He is very particular to open this prison of Ravana’s heart and release Sita from there, in full view of the world, before Vibishana could assume the kingship of Lanka and set her free. It was not just for the sake of holding Ravana above what he was. He expiated Ravana of the guilt because he could not allow even the slightest of stain to remain on Sita, writing of whom he often forgets himself and floats higher and higher up on the “viewless wings of poesy.”
