Of the six sections of the Ramayana, the present volume comprises the fifth. Consisting as it does of 2885 Sanskrit verses, the Sundarakandam deals with the heroic exploits of Hanuman in one day and night, during which he crossed over to Sri Lanka, discovered Sita, inflicted crushing defeat on Rakshasa forces, set fire to Lanka and flew back to convey the news of Sita to Rama. Text in Sanskrit with English translation.
Anything that is secret and mysterious in these systems of yoga should be at once rejected. The best guide in life is strength. In religion, as in all other matters, discard everything that weakens you, have nothing to do with it.
-Swami Vivekananda
