Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa
The recurring collective of divine and celestial onlookers who witness and react to the earthly battle.
Then Vidyādharas, Bhūtas, gods, Daityas, great seers, and great-spirited Guhyakas all watched that battle.
"These hosts of gods standing in the sky together with seers, seeing you slain in battle, cry out overjoyed.
The Vidyādharas and great sages beheld that great-souled one mounted on his horse, ranging through the monkey army.
