Laksmaṇa could be revived. Jāmbavān observed that there was a herb called "Droṇam" in one of the peaks of the Himālayas and it was brought at once, Laksmaṇa could be restored to his senses. Hanūmān flew to the Himālayas immediately. But although he combed the forests there, he was not able to find the herb Droṇam. So he tore away and lifted a whole peak which was full of all kinds of medicinal herbs and returned to Laṅkā. Jāmbavān took the needed herbs from it and deposited the peak at the southern end of India. This is the present Marutvāmala. (Mala means mountain).
