Lord Hanuman- the deity of power and resilience



Hanuman, the mighty ape avatar that aided Lord Rama in his expedition against evil forces. He is one of the most popular idols in the Hindu pantheon. It is believed to be an avatar of Lord Shiva, Hanuman is worshiped as a symbol of physical strength, trust, honesty, resilience, perseverance and devotion. Hanuman's tale in the epic Ramayana - where he is



Salasar Balaji is a religious place for the devotees of Lord Hanuman. It is situated in Churu district of Rajasthan. Salasar Dham attracts innumerable Indian worshipers throughout the year. 
 assigned the responsibility to locate Rama's wife Sita abducted by Ravana, the demon king of Lanka — is known for its vital power and astounding ability to inspire and equip a reader with all the ingredients needed to face ordeals and conquer obstructions in the way of the world.

The Birth of Hanuman

The story of the birth of Hanuman goes thus: Vrihaspati had an attendant called Punjikasthala, who was cursed to assume the form of a female monkey — a curse that could only be nullified if she would give birth to an incarnation of Lord Shiva. Reborn as Anjana, she performed intense austerities to please Shiva, who finally granted her the boon that would cure her of the curse.

When Agni, the God of fire, gave Dasharath, the king of Ayodhya, a bowl of sacred dessert to share among his wives so they may have divine children, an eagle snatched a part of the pudding and dropped it where Anjana was meditating, and Pavana, the god of wind delivered the drop to her outstretched hands. We worship Lord Hanuman on Tuesdays and in some cases, Saturdays, many people keep fast in honour of Hanuman and give special offerings to him. In times of trouble, it is a common faith among Hindus to chant the name of Hanuman or sing his hymn ("Hanuman Chalisa") and proclaim "Bajrangbali Ki Jai" — "victory to thy thunderbolt strength". Once every year — on the full-moon day of the Hindu month of Chaitra (April) at sunrise — Hanuman Jayanti is celebrated to commemorate the birth of Hanuman. Hanuman temples are among the most common public shrines found in India.

The Power of Devotion

The character of Hanuman teaches us of the unlimited power that lies unused within each one of us. Hanuman directed all his energies towards the worship of Lord Rama, and his undying devotion made him such that he became so powerful, having ample devotional strength and great foresightedness. Hanuman's only desire to serve Lord Rama. Hanuman perfectly exemplifies 'Dasyabhava' devotion — one of the nine types of devotions — that bonds the master and the devotee. His greatness lies in his emotional attachment with his Lord, which also formed the base of his genial qualities.
Hanumat Kavach (shield) is one of the strongest recitation to envelop strengths of Lord Hanuman.
Indian philosophy of life style management is guided by legends and heros of history. That is how sanskaras (value system) are created in life.
