Bhagvan Sri Ram, Mata Sita and Lakshman were residing in the
Chitrakuta Mountain during their exile period in the Ramayana. Kakasura, son of
Indra, in the form a crow was flying over the Chitrakuta and noticed the divine
couple.
Sri Ram was lying on the lap of Mata Sita and sleeping. Kakasura
came in the form crow and scratched Mata Sita. The painful cry of Sita woke up
Sri Ram.
Bhagavan Sri Ram immediately realized that the crow was Kakasura.
He took up a sharp blade of grass, infused into it the spell of Brahma and
directed it at the crow.
Fearing for his life, Kakasura flew all over the world. But
the divine arrow followed him.
Trimurtis, Devas and Saints could not save Kakasura.
Finally, Kakasura took refuge at the feet of Sri Ram.
Bhagvan Sri Ram said that the Brahmastra could never
become futile so the arrow will hit the right eye of Kakasura. Accordingly, the
arrow struck the right of eye of Kakasura.
