Hanuman Ji is a perfect example of true devotion and complete surrender. As a devotee of Lord Rama, Hanuman Ji became very popular for his devotion and great qualities. Like Ganesha he commands respect and veneration from children and elders alike. Any one who is familiar with the Ramayana, cannot but appreciate his divine nature and super human personality, shaped by the strength of celibacy, humility, selflessness, unsurpassed devotion, determination, fearlessness and an extraordinary commitment to work for the divine. Maa Sita found in him a friend, a son and a loyal servant. Impressed by his loyalty and commitment to the cause of Lord Rama, she blessed him to remain immortal in his existing form till the end of creation and help the loyal devotees of Rama.
He also symbolizes the story of animal man in us who through the path of devotion and service to God, can purify himself and attain immortality. Truly in the entire Hindu pantheon there in none like Shri Hanuman, for he is an evolved God, born strangely as a manifestation of Lord Shiva but became a great devotee of Shri Mahavishnu through Lord Rama. Wherever the name of Rama is uttered or chanted, Anjaneya said to go there and become an invisible part of the scene. Devotees pray to him for courage and confidence, freedom from sorrow and for protection against evil spirits and bad luck. Hanuman Ji is a terror to evil forces. Because of his intense purity and devotion they are afraid to appear anywhere near him. Two interpretations are given for the word Hanuman. According to one, Hanu means disfigured and man means jaw. Hanuman burnt his mouth when he was young as he tried to swallow the sun. Since he has a swollen mouth, he is called Hanuman. According to another interpretation, Han means destroyed and man mean self-pride. Since Hanuman personifies humility and total absence of pride, he is aptly called Hanuman.!! 🐒📿🍃🕉🐵🐚🙏🏻
