Chapter 25 of Adbhutaramayana contains Sita Sahasranama by Shrirama. The gist of the episode is – A group of Maharshis visited Shrirama, after His return to Ayodhya from Lanka after killing the 10-headed Ravana, and congratulated Him. They praised Him for killing the most dreadful Ravana. On hearing this, Sita, sitting beside Shrirama, smiled mockingly. The sages were surprised at this and asked Her to explain the reason for Her behavior. She said that killing the 10-headed Ravana is not that praiseworthy, and that Shrirama’s real praise can only be made if he can kill the 1000-headed Ravana – brother of the 10-headed Ravana. As the story goes, before the marriage of Sita, a Brahmin had come to her father’s palace for Chaturmasya. Very satisfied with Sita’s service, the Brahmin used to tell Her several stories. One of the stories was about this 1000-headed Ravana of Pushkara Dwipa, who had conquered all the gods and others in the three worlds. Hearing the story, Shrirama decided to kill the 1000-headed Ravana and started with all his brothers and friends like Sugriva, Hanuman, Vibhishana, etc with their armies. Ravana was so
powerful that with his arrows, he drove out the entire army including the four brothers, Sugriva, Hanuman, Vibhishana and others, all of whom returned and reached their own homes in no time. There remained only Shrirama and Sita in the Pushpaka Vimana, with gods, sages, etc. in the sky, witnessing the war below. After heavy fighting, Shrirama fell down wounded in the Pushpaka Vimana while Ravana was laughing aloud on his success. Sita then got down from the Vimana and immediately changed as Ugramurti Kali and killed Ravana and his entire army. When Shrirama was roused, he saw Kali and her troupe dancing and playing with the head of Ravana. Seeing all these, Shrirama became fearful and started praising Sita with 1008 names.
