When Hanumaan entered Lanka he was tired and exhausted but also elated on his success in impregnating multiple security layers of Lanka fort. The thought of How his wit had confused Lankini the gate keeper who ended up blessing him and happily allowed him enter the city. Apparently she was aware about Rama and subscribed to his philosophy but prior to that his encounter with Sursa who was one of main security in-charge around Lankan periphery was one of the best in Hanumaan's life. Hanumaan tried to dodge Sursa by projecting his personality very large but when it almost lead to Sursa almost gulping hanumaan with her very large discretionary power Hanumaan immediately changed his tactic and pretended as very ordinary person a very small fry in ocean. this fooled Sursa and Hanumaan was able to move further is journey.
Now roaming around in an alien country without any direction and acquaintance was unsafe. To carryout his mission of finding secret location of Sita's captivity and to establish a meeting he required a local contact. To identify a local influential person having access to kingdom and yet not subscribing to Ravan's policies, having sufficient guts, power and clout to oppose Ravana on certain issues.
Hanumaan discreetly made few inquiries in the city and could gather name of Vibhishen the younger brother of Ravana, he was considered intellectual among nobles of society. Lanka was hub of consumerism lifestyle and all amenities were readily available, the buying power of Lankan citizen was adequate to afford all life style equipments introduced in market. All markets were full of latest stocks and business was brisk, all men and women seem to afford latest model of gadgets, finding a person of high moral values among them was tough task, so the news of a rival faction in household of Ravana delighted Hanumaan.
Hanumaan decided to meet Vibhishan at his home, in first sight only Hanumaan was impressed with simple life style and his philosophy, Vibhishan was living like Yogis around Ayodhya and was not at all influenced by extravagant life style of Rakshasa family. when dialogue started between them Hanumaan noticed that Vibhishan wanted Lankan citizen to follow path of right hood, he wanted them to respect right of others, inculcate better civic sense in everybody. upon this Hanumaan introduced Vibhishen to Rama's ideology of brotherhood, compassion for all, values, respect for social hierarchy and above all detachment where even the king is prepared to sacrifice his privileges to ensure that scholars in his country are protected and followers of (Satya) Truth, peace, human's intellectual growth and scientists are not harassed by Bad elements of society.
Vibhishan had heard about mission of Rama and was happy to welcome Hnumaan the Rama's ambassador. Both of them agreed to work together for establishing rule of high moral values and Vibhishan was assured that Rama will attack Lanka to claim back Sita and Vibhishan can be assured of installation as Lankan king by Rama.
