Appearing in person before Hanuman, while he was making his way into Lanka at night, the mighty ogress, Lankaa, presiding over the city, stops him, striking him with the palm of her hand. Getting unnerved, even though gently smitten with his left fist, she permits the monkey to enter, repeating the words of Brahma, the creator, that the destruction of Lanka should be concluded as imminent when she is overpowered by a monkey.

Desirous of reaching Lanka in order to discover Sita, Hanuman takes a leap from a peak of Mount Mahendra and honouring with the touch of his hand Mount Mainaaka, which rose from the bottom of the sea to provide rest on its peak to Hanuman, encounters Surasaa (mother of Naagas), sent by the gods in the form of an ogress, who was waiting for Hanuman with her mouth open to devour him. He enters her belly assuming a minute form and comes out without killing her. Further he is met by another ogresss, Simhika by name, standing with her mouth wide open to gulp Hanuman. He enters her mouth after assuming a minute form and comes out after splitting her bely open and killing her. Then contracting his body into a minute form again in order to preclude the attention of the ogres, he descends on a mountain peak outside Lanka.

Questioned by Angada, Gaja and other leaders of monkey hordes proclaim each his own leaping capacity ranging in an increasing degree from ten Yojana's or eighty miles to ninety Yojanas or seven hundred and twenty miles. Jambavan in his turn submits that he can leap full one hundred Yojanas or eight hundred miles but is doubtful about his capacity to return. On Angada declaring the same thing, Jambavan submits that for a work which can be entrusted to a servant alone, the services of a ruler would be out of place, and encourages Hanuman to take up the gauntlet.

Feeling encouraged by this, the monkeys too resume their journey further south.

Sampaati communicates to the monkeys the prediction made by Sage Nishaakara, who could foresee future events by dint of his intuitive perception, that descending as Sri Rama elsewhere the Lord will dispatch monkeys in quest of Sita to the Vindhyan range and that Sampaati will get back his wings as soon as he tells the monkeys the whereabouts of Sita.
