Once again beautiful contrast of Ram and Ravan was shown. Ravan sends his brother and son to the battle field to meet his selfish gains.

Ram cries if something happens to laxman world will tell he has killed his brother for his selfishness. Look at the lament of Ram. Yes Laxman was Ram's defense. But when Laxman comes he being the elder he has taken the responsibility of Laxman. Sita has taken the responsibility of Laxman. They wanted to give back a mother their son and a wife their husband who has let him go for serving them. If they couldn't do it, that was the biggest failure for them. Ram shows true leadership. He is responsible for everyone under him. That is why he laments why Laxman went without his order. Because Ram would never give order without analyzing the situation. That is why Ram is trusted.

And for Ram his victory rests on Hanuman. Hanuman is the one who removes all obstacles in Ram's path. He is the one who is helping Ram to deliver on the trust of everyone with his intellect and seva. That's why Ram treats Hanuman equal to him.

Next part is Hanuman. Look at his journey. It shows a very important thing. Obstacles can be opportunities or solutions to our problems if we change our perspective. Hanuman was direction less . Kalanemi comes. He tells a direction. After killing him Hanuman understands he might have given the wrong direction, so he takes the other direction. Even in obstacle Hanuman's problem get solved. Now let us see how Hanuman lifts the mountain. Actually it reminded me of Krishna lifting Govardhana Giri. What is the force that makes Hanuman lift Himadri and Krishna lifts Govardhana Giri. It is the need to protect. When you so very much wants to protect your powers are heightened. You understand the importance of time.You make the impossible possible. So if you want to achieve something , first decide what are you trying to protect. If you can bring yourself to protecting you will achieve anything. That's why a mother's power is highest as she will go any extend to protect her child.

Last but not least the way Ram and Ravan dealt with failures. Ram teaches his brother where he went wrong. He motivates Lakshman on his qualities. Irrespective of Laxman failing miserably against Meghandh announces Laxman will be killing Meghnadh.

Ravan Meghanadh had almost won twice. He had not killed the enemy, but he almost did it. Still Ravan is not satisfied and demotivates his son, asking him to do pooja. Now Meghandh is a man who wants to win at any cost. Wanting to get the respect back in his father's eyes. A man on whom fear of failure has crept in. Once fear comes your power goes and it will be interesting to see the clash of titans tomorrow.

Sulochana sees the dream that her husband's death is near. Meghnadh tells no one can defeat him. Interestingly it is a black horse that is shown putting down Meghandh. I know symbolism is there. But unable to get it. It will be really good if someone can interpret Sulochana's dream
