The sage continued - Ravana roamed around for combat. It was early morning and Ravana saw the Moon set. This offended him. How could the moon travel over him without greeting him. He decided to go the land of the Moon and fight.
Ravana started his chariot. Crossing his mountains, he came to the spot where Ganga touched the earth as Bhagirathi. Ravana had a bath in the river and proceeded further. He came across Shiva and Parvati and the followers of Shiva. Going further Ravana came face to face with Chandra, the moon.
Seeing Ravana, Chandra started a storm of ice. The army felt defeated. Their hands were becoming numb. Ravana then invoked the fire weapon. Ravana then started showering arrows and Chandra and the stars started fleeing. Chandra went to Brahma and said what had happened.
Brahma came to Ravana said - You have lost your senses. Why do you attack the moon? Leave this place and go in peace.
Not wanting to offend Brahma, Ravana left.
