What the texts say

In the Ramayana, the rakshasi Shurpanakha calls her brother Kumbhakarna very strong and ever sunk in heavy sleep. Ramayana 3.17.24 In the Sri Ramcharitmanas, Brahma prompts the goddess Sarasvati to turn Kumbhakarna's mind, and he asks for six months of sleep. Ramcharitmanas 1.18.369 Kumbhakarna tells his king that Sita should not have been seized by force from Rama without first reflecting. Ramayana 6.12.28 In battle, Kumbhakarna rises like a great mountain, and the vanara warriors rush at him with trees and peaks. Ramayana 6.65.40, 6.67.4 Rama, son of Dasharatha, sends arrows into Kumbhakarna's heart-region, and the rakshasas report his death to Ravana, their king. Ramayana 6.67.117, 6.68.1
