"All
right," said Bhima and tried to push the monkeys tail.
The tail wouldnt move!
Bhima put all his strength into the effort. Still he failed. The tail was as heavy as a
mountain. Bhima sweated all over. He breathed heavily. At last he said: "O monkey, are you a god? All my strength is useless
against you. Please forgive me if I have displeased you, and tell me who you are."
The monkey answered: "O Bhima! I am your brother,
Hanuman. I told you not to cross this path because it is dangerous to go inside. If you
want Saugandhika flowers, they grow on the bank of the river nearby. You can away as many
as you like." |
