After giving Vibhīṣaṇa the power to rule the Rākṣasa population of Laṅkā for the duration of one kalpa, Lord Rāmacandra, the Supreme Personality of Godhead [Bhagavān], placed Sītādevī on an airplane decorated with flowers and then got on the plane Himself. The period for His living in the forest having ended, the Lord returned to Ayodhyā, accompanied by Hanumān, Sugrīva and His brother Lakṣmaṇa.

Translation
After giving Vibhīṣaṇa the power to rule the Rākṣasa population of Laṅkā for the duration of one kalpa, Rāmacandra placed Sītā on an airplane and then ascended the plane with Sugrīva and Lakṣmaṇa, along with Hanumān. The period for his living in the forest having ended, the Lord returned to Ayodhyā.
Putting Sītā on the airplane, Rāma ascended with the two brothers, Sugrīva and Lakṣmaṇa. Hanumad yutaḥ means “with Hanumān.”

Personal Guidance
Vibhīṣaṇa is made king for the duration of a kalpa — a startling promotion for one who simply stood with the Lord. Aligning with Rāma at the critical moment paid extraordinary dividends.
Reflection Questions
- Where am I being asked to stand with Rāma in a critical moment, even at the cost of family ties?
- What unimaginable promotion might be on the other side of a single decisive alignment?
