### [c9.152](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c9.152)

Though the above pact was made, Sugrīva was doubtful about Rāma's capacity to honour his part of the contract, and Rāma, knowing this suspicion of Sugrīva, wanted to dispel it. The mountain-like body of Dundubhi, the Rākṣasa killed by Bāli, lay there in a big heap of bones and at the instance of Rāma, Lakṣmaṇa threw it into the distant southern sea with the big toe of his left foot. Sugrīva was wonder-struck at this feat of Lakṣmaṇa and praised him. Yet Sugrīva was not quite cured of his doubt and Rāma wanted to further convince him of their prowess.
