Hanuman

 

Of all the many Hindu deities, Lord Hanuman, the monkey god, is the most popular. He incorporates all of the most life supporting attributes, such as wisdom, strength, courage, compassion, devotion, perseverance and self-discipline.

 

Just as Hanuman’s heart is filled with devotion to the Lord Rama and His Lady Sita, so His devotee’s heart is filled with His benign qualities and which gradually suffuse his/her whole being.

 

In short, Hanuman represents all that is good in life. He serves as true companion to whom one can freely open one’s heart and soul with full trust and confidence.
