when the agitated lakshamana—reaching the inner chambers of sugriva and his harem—reproaches sugriva for being ungrateful to rama and forgetting his promise, the critical edition of "ramayana" states that tara voluntarily intervenes to calm the wrath of lakshmana. in some "ramayana" adaptations and north-western indian manuscripts of "ramayana", it is tara, not ruma in whom sugriva is engrossed when lakshmana arrives. the south indian manuscripts portray the drunk sugriva, who is engrossed in lustful revel as being ignorant of lakshmana's anger and sending tara to pacify him, in some versions, even though she is drunk. though intoxicated with "half-closed eyes and unsteady gait", tara manages to disarm lakshmana. the intoxication of tara is also described in original "ramayana", but in a different context. tara is described as having made it a habit to visit sugriva always in a tipsy state, before indulging in the "new pleasures of love".
