A complete and comprehensive collection of the sacred texts of Hanuman

Hanuman is revered across India and is the deity in whom people place the greatest faith, honouring him as Sankatmochan, the one who liberates from all kinds of hardships and suffering. In moments of distress, his name is the first to be invoked.

This book brings together all major sacred texts related to Hanuman in one place, offering both their Hindi and English translations and the phonetic transliterations of the original texts. An index of the dohas and chaupais of the Sundarkand is provided to help readers locate references.

Additionally, this book explores fascinating questions about Hanuman, such as why Rama declared him greater than himself, the stories behind when and why Tulsidas composed the Hanuman Chalisa and Hanuman Bahuk, the number of Sundarkands Tulsidas wrote, why it is called Sundarkand and the significance of performing aarti after prayer, among others.
