Hanuman

“If you sway from the mission, Lakshmana’s exceedingly violent, vehement, ghastly and sharp arrows, travelling very fast and being difficult to even look at, will make you their target for destruction.” (Hanuman speaking to Angada, Valmiki Ramayana, Kishkindha Kand, 54.19) Hanuman Sowing Dissension is a collection of eleven essays discussing the verses in the Ramayana where Hanuman uses the divide and conquer method of diplomacy to try to get Angada to continue on in the search for Sita instead of give up.
