Puranic Encyclopaedia

TRIJAṬĀ   A servant demoness of the palace of Rāvaṇa. Trijaṭā was one among the demonesses who were deputed to entice Sītā, sitting dejected under the Aśoka tree, to the side of Rāvaṇa. All the demonesses siept around Sītā. Trijaṭā had a dream one night which is described in [Chapter 27 of Sundara Kāṇḍa] thus: “Śrī Rāma dressed in pure white robes and accompanied by Lakṣmaṇa dropped to the place from air in a chariot built with ivory and drawn by a thousand swans. After that they came to Sītā on the back of Airāvata. Śrī Rāmā took Sītā in his lap and rose up into the air. They went high to reach the Sun and Sītā was seen patting on the Sun and the moon. Then Airāvata which was carrying Rāma, Sītā and Lakṣmaṇa came to the top of Laṅkā. Then they came to this place in chariot. Then they travelled to the north in a Puṣpaka vimāna. Rāvaṇa with oil smeared on his body and looking all red was lying on the ground. His head was clean shaven. He was drinking oil from a pot and was shouting loudly. Then Rāvaṇa went to the south on the back of a donkey. When he had travelled a short distance he fell from the donkey head downwards. Rising from there he was muttering many vulgar words. Then Rāvaṇa sank into a foul-smelling dung-mire. A black woman wearing a red saree and mud smeared all over her body came near him and dragged him to the south. Kumbhakarṇa also was subjected to her torture. All the members of Rāvaṇa's family were seen smeared with oil. After that they all travelled south again. At that time Rāvaṇa was seen on the back of a hog, Kumbhakarṇa on the back of a camel and Indrajit on the back of a crocodile. Vibhīṣaṇa alone was seen standing near the Puṣpaka Vimāna on the back of a four-tusked elephant wearing white robes and white garlands and sweet-smelling pastes smeared all over his body and holding a white umbrella with the four ministers by his side and the royal band playing. At that stage the beautiful city of Laṅkā with its whole army fell into the ocean. Then a monkey messenger of Śrī Rāma burnt the city of Laṅkā. All the women demonesses and Kumbhakarṇa were seen lying in a cowdung pit wearing red dress.” When Trijaṭā repeated her dream to her companions all were frightened to death. After the Rāma-Rāvaṇa, battle, it is stated in [Välmīki Rāmāyaṇa] , that Śrī Rāma gave presents to Trijaṭā. [Śloka 41, Chapter 291, Vana Parva] .
