After 14 years of exile, when Bhagwan Rama returned to Ayodhya, Rishi Agastya came to meet him, and they began discussing the battle of Lanka. Bhagwan Ramā shared how he had defeated fierce warriors like Ravanā and Kumbhakarna, and how Lakshmanā had also slain powerful demons like Indrajit and Atikaya.

Then, Rishi Agastya said, “Certainly, Ravanā and Kumbhakarn were very brave, but the greatest demon was Meghnad (Indrajit). He fought Devaraja Indra in heaven and captured him, bringing him to Lanka. When Brahma asked Meghnad to release Indra, he freed him. By slaying the most powerful being, Lakshmanā became the greatest warrior.”

Hearing his brother’s valor praised by Sage Agastya, Shri Rama felt very pleased. However, a curiosity arose in his mind as to why Rishi Agastya was saying that killing Indrajit was even more challenging than defeating Ravana.

To satisfy Bhagwan Rama’s curiosity, Rishi Agastya explained, “Indrajit had a boon that he could only be killed by someone who had not slept for 12 years, who had not seen the face of a woman for 12 years, and who had not eaten anything for 12 years.”

Listening to Rishi Agastya’s words, Bhagwan Ramā said, “During our time in exile, for 14 years, I would regularly give Lakshmana his portion of fruits and flowers. I lived in a hut with Sita, and Lakshmana stayed in the nearby hut, so he never saw Sita’s face. But how could he have gone without sleep for 12 years?” Shri Rama then called Lakshman Ji to ask him about this.

Lakshman Ji replied, “When we went to the mountain, Sugriva asked us to recognize Mata Sita by her ornaments. I only recognized the anklets on her feet because I had never looked at her directly. While you and Mata Sita would sleep in the hut, I kept guard outside all night. Whenever sleep tried to overcome me, I would block my eyes with my arrows.”

Then Lakshman Ji explained about fasting for 12 years, “The fruits and flowers I would gather were divided into three parts by you. You would hand me one part, saying, ‘Keep this fruit, Lakshman.’ You never asked me to eat, so how could I consume it without your permission?”

Hearing these words, Bhagwan Rama embraced him. Due to these rigorous vows, Lakshman Ji could undertake the courageous task of slaying Indrajit and became renowned as a brave warrior. Bhagwan Shri Ram was Triloki Nath, so no comparison can be made with him. Hanuman Ji was a Rudra Avatar, but Lakshman Ji was the greatest warrior as he killed the powerful demon Indrajit, who had received boons that made him nearly impossible to kill.
