Sugreeva springs on Ravana

(Valmiki Ramayana - Yuddha Kanda - 37 to 41)

• Meditation: I meditate on Sri Rama besieging Lanka.

• Vibhisana sending spies: Sri Rama, Lakshmana, Sugreeva, Hanuman and others discuss about ways to attack Lanka. Vibhisana informed that he has sent spies Anala, Panasa, Sampati and Pramati (in the form of birds), who has returned with the news of Lanka. Vibhisana said that Prahasta is guarding the eastern gate, Mahaparshva and Mahodara are guarding the southern gate, Indrajit is guarding the western gate and Ravana himself is guarding the northern gate. Virupaksha is guarding the center of the fort.
(Valmiki Ramayana - Yuddha Kanda - 37)

• Sri Rama giving orders of attack: Hearing the report of Vibhisana, Sri Rama ordered Nila to attack the eastern gate guarded by Prahasta. Sri Rama ordered Angada to attack the southern gate guarded by Mahaparshva and Mahodara. Sri Rama ordered Hanuman to attack the western gate guarded by Indrajit. Sri Rama himself along with Lakshmana decided to attack the northern gate guarded by Ravana. Sri Rama ordered Sugreeva, Jambavan and Vibhisana to occupy the central part of the army. Sri Rama instructed the vanaras not to assume human form for they need to be recognized. Only he, Lakshmana, Vibhisana and his four companions will assume human form. After giving the instructions, Sri Rama decided to camp on the charming mount Suvela during that night.
(Valmiki Ramayana - Yuddha Kanda - 37)

• Sri Rama observing Lanka from mount Suvela: Sri Rama then ascended mount Suvela along with Lakshmana, Sugreeva and Vibhisana to observe the beauty of Lanka. Hanuman, Angada and other vanaras also ascended the mountain. After observing Lanka they camped on the mountain to spend the night. They also observed the beautiful gardens of Lanka filled with various trees. Some of the vanaras entered those groves. The city of Lanka was located on the top of the Trikuta mountain which was twenty yojanas in length and ten yojanas in breath. Seeing the splendour of Lanka, Sri Rama and Lakshmana was astonished.
(Valmiki Ramayana - Yuddha Kanda - 38 to 39)

• Sugreeva springs on Ravana: Seeing Ravana inside Lanka, Sugreeva in anger went there, announced his identity and sprang on him. Sugreeva threw the crown of Ravana on the ground. The two wrestled with each other for a long time. Then Ravana decided to use his magical powers. Understanding this, Sugreeva flew off in the sky and reached on the side of Sri Rama, leaving Ravana in a state of bewilderment. Sri Rama told Sugreeva not to repeat such reckless act which does not befit a king.
