PLATE TWO
“On the victory day celebrating the conquest of Laṅkā—a day known as Vijaya-daśamī—Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu dressed up all His devotees like monkey soldiers. Displaying the emotions of Hanumān, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu took up a large tree branch, and, mounting the walls of Laṅkā fort, began to dismantle it. In the ecstasy of Hanumān, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu angrily said, ‘Where is the rascal Rāvaṇa? He has kidnapped the universal mother, Sītā. Now I shall kill him and all his family.’ Everyone became very astonished to see the emotional ecstasy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, and everyone began to chant, ‘All glories! All glories!’ again and again.” (pp.16-17)
