What is the significance of Sri Rama-Anjaneya and Sri Krishna-Arjuna fights?

[Shri Divakar asked: Padanamaskaram Swami, What significant knowledge should all devotees grasp from Sri Ramanjaneya yuddham and Sri krishnarjuna yuddham. Your servant, Divakar.]

Swami replied:- In both incidents, God was defeated by the devotee. It is the will of God that the end must result in such a way alone. God always tries to give credit to His devotees and a real devotee must always try to give the real credit to the real God. When a miracle is done by the human incarnation, actually Parabrahman or unimaginable God does the miracle and gives its credit to God Datta with whom He has merged perfectly. God Datta immediately passes over the credit to the human being component (external medium) with whom He has merged perfectly. The human being shall immediately pass back the credit to God Datta and such returned credit from the human devotee component is immediately transferred to the unimaginable God by God Datta in to whom ego can never enter. But, in the case of the human being component, it is 99% sure that the ego will enter the human being component. Parashurama killed all the kings, who became very bad, and ego entered Parashurama due to his predominant Rajas and Tamas qualities as per the adjustment of the boon by his grandfather, sage Ruchiika (Sage Ruchiika gave one fruit for his wife and another fruit for his mother-in-law to bless each with a son. Both mother and daughter exchanged the fruits. Hence, Ruchiika told that the son of his wife would be with Rajas and Tamasa while the son of his mother-in-law would be with Sattvam. On the prayer of his wife, Ruchiika adjusted the boon in such a way so that his son would not be with rajas and tamas, but, instead his grandson would be with rajas and tamas. Parashurama was the grand son of sage Ruchiika.). He was insulted by another incarnation called Rama.

Between Hanuman and Arjuna there is lot of difference because Hanuman is the embodiment of Sattvam quality whereas Arjuna contains Rajas and Tamas also. You can see this difference in their response in the war with God. Hanuman always adopted a defensive way of protecting Himself from the attack from God. Arjuna always adopted an offensive way of fighting with God due to ego.
