The mind is fickle, like a monkey and jumps from place to place, going after things, engaging itself in innumerable activities that disturb the peace of the place. The mind, like lord Hanuman can also travel where it wants to. It can fly in the air, cross the continents and the worlds in an instant with the speed of thought and reach any one and anything it wants to mentally. It can also expand or contracts itself at will, again like Hanuman Ji. So long as it remains under the control of pure animal passions and the activities of the sense, it remains unstable and mischievous, causing much of the disturbance in the world of the individual. But once it surrenders to the inner self and becomes devoted to it completely and unconditionally, it assumes miraculous powers and performs stupendous feats like Hanuman Ji, working for the divine cause helping the lower self (Maa Sita) and the Soul (Lord Rama) to come together and become united. By killing all the evil thoughts with its determination, it also lays a firm foundation for the kingdom of God (Ramarajya) to become established in the body. Lord Hanuman is thus symbolically the mind principle ever absorbed in the contemplation of God and totally surrendered to Him!
Jai Shri Ram ~ Jai Mahavir Hanuman! ๐๐ป๐๐ป
