When Tulsidas Ji was imprisoned in Agra by Emperor Akbar for refusing to write a holy scripture in praise of him—as he had done for Lord Ram—he humbly denied the request. Tulsidas Ji told Akbar that even the Ramayana was written only by the blessings of Lord Shiva, and he could not write about a mortal king. He said he could write only for Lord Ram.
At the time, Tulsidas Ji was 97 years old when he was jailed in Agra.
In deep devotion, Tulsidas Ji prayed internally to Lord Hanuman to help free him from jail. In response, Hanuman Ji granted Tulsidas Ji divine sight and appeared to him, saying,
“In Kalyug, I cannot help you directly. By the command of the Almighty God, my powers remain locked until the birth of Kalki Avatar."
Then, all my powers will be unlocked. But to help you now, I will send an army of monkeys in huge numbers to set you free.”
As promised, a massive number of monkeys attacked Akbar’s palace. The soldiers and army of Akbar were left helpless and could not withstand the overwhelming attack. Amid the chaos, a wise person from the community advised Akbar to release Tulsidas Ji in order to stop the monkey invasion.
Following this advice, Akbar ordered the release of Tulsidas Ji from jail, and the miraculous attack of monkeys came to an end.
