About Lord Hanuman
Lord Hanuman, also known as Bajrangbali, Maruti, and Anjaneya, is the divine vanara (monkey god) and the greatest devotee of Lord Rama. Son of Vayu (the wind god) and Anjana, Hanuman possesses immense strength, unmatched devotion, and the eight supernatural powers (Ashta Siddhi). His role in the Ramayana as Rama's foremost servant and warrior is legendary — from his leap across the ocean to Lanka, to carrying the Sanjeevani mountain to save Lakshmana.
Hanuman is depicted as a muscular vanara with a mace (gada) in his hand, his tail often shown coiled or raised. He is considered chiranjeevi (immortal) and is believed to be present wherever Rama's name is chanted. Opening his chest reveals the image of Rama and Sita within his heart, symbolizing the ultimate ideal of selfless devotion.
Worshipping Hanuman and chanting his mantras removes fear, evil influences, and negative energies. He is the remover of obstacles on the spiritual path, the protector against black magic and malefic planetary influences (especially Saturn/Shani), and the bestower of strength, courage, and unwavering faith. Hanuman Chalisa, composed by Tulsidas, is one of the most recited prayers in Hinduism.
