| Hanuman meets Ruesi Narot |
Hanuman tests Ruesi Narot's kindness
Once Hanuman had beaten and killed Phi Suea Samut, he mutated into his flying form, and, brandishing his trident, flew through the air until he reached Mount Solos (Solasa), which was in fact already beyond Langka island. Hanuman had mistaken the mountan for Mount Nilakala. As he flew, he noticed the roof of an Ashram - the Ashram was in fact none other than that of the Master Ruesi Narot (Narada). (Ruesi are called "Rishi" in India)
Hanuman flew down to the ground and, casting magical incantations he turned himself into a small white monkey and approached the Ashram of Ruesi Narot and pretended to bow in reverence to the Hermit Sage or great renown.
Ruesi Narot saw the little monkey bowing, and asked hime "Who are you sir?" "Where do you come from? and what do you want here?"
Hanuman heard this, and rose his hands in reverence, replying "I sir, do not have a name!" "I was wandering in the forest and heard that Langka City was so large and grand, that i decided i would come to see it". "But i don't know how to get there - please can you tell me where it is?".
Ruesi Narot answered "You like to joke don't you little monkey? Why do you come and ask me what you already should know? can you not see that Mount Nilakala is right over there in the middle of that great city to the South East of here, can't you see it or what?".
Hanuman was pleased to hear this helpful reply from the Hermit Sage; thus continued his testing and said "Oh kind and great Ruesi, please have mercy on me, for i have lost my way in the evening dusk, and now i am very tired and hungry. please let me stay and rest here for a while. I promise that in the morning when i am recovered i shall pay my respects and then leave".
Ruesi Narot believed Hanuman that he was a simple forest monkey, and agreed to let him stay the night at the Ashram. Hanuman bowed and followed the Ruesi to a room behind the main Ashram where the hermit Sage said he could rest.

Below Pic; Mural Painting showing various scenes of Hanuman's meeting with Ruesi Narot, and his subsequent stay at the Ashram of the Hermit Sage of great renown. From right to left, you can observe how Hanuman sees the Ashram from the sky, flies down and approaches the Ruesi disguised as a normal forest monkey, sits at the campfire chatting, and finally (middle image), lays his head to rest in a room of the Ashram
Hanuman began to wonder why the Ruesi wold choose to reside in Langka with the Yaksas; This Hermit Sage must have some kind of special powers or magical abilities. Hanuman decided he wanted to put this to the test, and see how powerful the Ruesi really was.
