24 passagesरावणग्रहणं तत्तु वायुग्रहणसन्निभम् । ततः पुलस्त्यः शुश्राव कथितं दिवि दैवतैः ।। ७.३३.१ ।।
But the capture of Rāvaṇa was like the capture of the wind. Thereafter Pulastya heard in heaven what had been related by the gods.
ततः पुत्रकृतस्नेहात्कम्प्यमानो महाधृतिः । माहिष्मतीपतिं द्रष्टुमाजगाम महानृषिः ।। ७.३३.२ ।।
Then the great sage, though of immense firmness, trembling because of his affection for his son, came to see the lord of Māhiṣmatī.
स वायुमार्गमास्थाय वायुतुल्यगतिर्द्विजः । पुरीं माहिष्मतीं प्राप्तो मनःसम्पातविक्रमः ।। ७.३३.३ ।।
That twice-born sage, having taken the path of the wind, whose speed was equal to the wind and whose power of swift movement was that of the mind, reached the city of Māhiṣmatī.
सो ऽमरावतिसङ्काशां हृष्टपुष्टजनाकुलाम् । प्रविवेश पुरीं ब्रह्मा इन्द्रस्येवामरावतीम् ।। ७.३३.४ ।।
He entered the city resembling Amarāvatī, crowded with delighted and well-nourished people—Brahmā entered the city as though it were Indra’s Amarāvatī.
पादचारमिवादित्यं निष्पतन्तं सुदुर्दशम् । ततस्ते प्रत्यभिज्ञाय अर्जुनाय निवेदयन् ।। ७.३३.५ ।।
Then they recognized him, as he emerged, very difficult to behold, like the sun moving on foot—or, literally, “the sun as a foot-goer”; the exact comparison in पादचारमिवादित्यम् is unusual. They reported this to Arjuna.
