Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Answer to Quiz # 24 and Question # 25 Quiz of the week # 24 was: We see in Srimad Ramayanam that Anjaneya saved life of those in life-threatening situations, at the nick of the moment. Name 3 such occasions when he saved life. Just mention the occasions in brief giving the names of those whom he saved. Elaborate details are not needed. ================================================================================= The correct Answer is: 1. SundarakAnDam: AnjanEya saves Sri Sita Piratti who was about to hang herself In the Ashoka vana, chanting Ramanama and handing over Sri Rama's message and ring. 2. YuddhakANDam: During the war, when Lakshmana was hit by Indrajit, AnjanEya hurries with Sanjeevi Mountain to bring Lakshmana back to life. 3. YuddhakANDam: At the end of 14 years of Sri Rama’s vana Vaasam, when Bharata was about to jump into the fire pit thinking that Sri Rama had not come on the appointed day, AnjanEya jumps before him with the message that Sri Rama is on his way. ======================================================================================================== Almost all who answered have given the correct answers. They are: Jayanthi Muralidharan (jayanthi1115) Srinivasan (srinivas_sgm) VARADARAJAN VIJAYANARAYANAN (vjnarayanan) Anand Sowmithiran (anand.sow) Radha (vale_543) jagannathan raghuraman (grinahi) Srikanth Parthasarathy (raamaanujadaasan) venkatesan srinivasan (venkat_d7) Vyjayanthi & Sundararajan (vijirajans) Krishna Madhavan (srirangadesikadasan) CONGRATULATIONS TO THEM ============================================================================== Padmanabhan Vijayaraghavan (padmanabhan55) gives another occasion as follows but he is not sure about it. 3) AnjanEya saved life of hundreds of vananaras when they decided to end life when they unable to find Sita in the South by flying to Lanka and saw Sita and bring back Kanaazhi to Rama. I had genuine doubt about the 3rd one. Koti Sreekrishna (tatachar) Besides the other two, he mentions: Vibhishana - "only Hanuman did not doubt him, where as others, like Sugriva wanted him executed" Vibhishana was NOT in a life threatening situation because without Sri Rama’s nod, none would dare to harm him. Better luck next time! ============================================================================= We give below Question # 25. Please read the question carefully and send your Answer to ramanbil and NOT to Sri Ranga Sri group so as to reach us on or before 24th January 2010. The CORRECT Answer received EARLIEST will be featured next week. Best of luck!
