The Shakti spear and Lakshmana

Variant

Hanuman's herb trip is told two ways: one weapon or the other.

Indrajit used the Pranghatini Shakti from behind to impale Lakshmana, who fell unconscious; Hanuman fetched Sanjivani from Dronagiri to revive him. Lakshmana later beheaded Indrajit with the Anjalikastra, which is called Aindrastra in Valmiki.
