The Hanuman Chalisa (Hindi pronunciation: [ɦənʊmaːn tʃaːliːsaː]; literally Forty chaupais on Hanuman) is a Hindu devotional hymn (stotra) addressed to Lord Hanuman.[2][3] It is traditionally believed to have been authored by 16th-century poet Tulsidas in the Awadhi language,[2] and is his best known text apart from the Ramcharitmanas.[4][5] The word "chālīsā" is derived from "chālīs", which means the number forty in Hindi, as the Hanuman Chalisa has 40 verses (excluding the couplets at the beginning and at the end).[2] Hanuman Chalisa Hanuman singing bhajans InformationReligionHinduismAuthorTulsidasLanguageAwadhi dialect of Hindi[1]Verses40 Hanuman is a vanara (a monkey-like humanoid), a devotee of Ram, and one of the central characters in the Indian epic, the Ramayan. According to some Shaivite beliefs, Lord Hanuman is also an incarnation of Lord Shiva. Folk tales acclaim the powers of Hanuman.[6] The qualities of Hanuman – his strength, courage, wisdom, celibacy, devotion to Lord Rama and the many names by which he was known – are detailed in the Hanuman Chalisa.[6] Recitation or chanting of the Hanuman Chalisa is a common religious practice.[7] The Hanuman Chalisa is the most popular hymn in praise of Lord Hanuman, and is recited by millions of Hindus every day. The four Puruṣārthas – Dharma, Artha, Kāma, Mokṣa The four types of Mukti – Sālokya, Sāmīpya, Sāyujya, Sārūpya Dharma, Jñāna, Yoga, Japa Devanagari बुद्धिहीन तनु जानिके, सुमिरौ पवनकुमार। बल बुधि विधा देहु मोहि हरहु कलेस विकार॥ Hunterian buddhihīna tanu jānike, sumirau pavanakumāra। bala budhi vidyā dehu mohi harahu kalesa vikāra॥ Knowing my body to be devoid of intelligence, I remember Hanuman, the son of Vāyu. Give me strength, intelligence and knowledge and remove all ailments (kalesa) and impurities (bikāra).[29][39][37][40] Gita Press interprets kalesa as bodily ailments and bikāra as mental maladies.[39] Rambhadracharya comments that kalesa (Sanskrit kleśa) refers to the five afflictions (Avidyā, Asmitā, Rāga, Dveṣa, and Abhiniveśa) as described in the Yoga Sutras, and bikāra (Sanskrit vikāra) refers to the six impurities of the mind (Kāma, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada, and Mātsarya).[40] Rambhadracharya adds that these five afflictions and six impurities are the eleven enemies, and Hanuman is capable of removing them as he is the incarnation of the eleven Rudras.[40] The ChalisaEdit Devanagari जय हनुमान ज्ञान गुन सागर। जय कपीस तिहुँ लोक उजागर॥ १ ॥ Hunterian jaya hanumāna gyāna guna sāgara। jaya kapīsa tihu loka ujāgara॥ 1 ॥ O Hanuman, the ocean of knowledge and virtues, may you be victorious. O the chief amongst Vanarasfamous across the three Lokas (Pātāla, Prithvi (earth) and Svarga), may you be victorious.[30][39][41] Rambhadracharya comments that Hanuman is called ocean of knowledge by Tulsidas as the Valmiki Ramayana describes him as one who knows the three Vedas (Ṛgveda, Yajurveda, and Sāmaveda) and Vyākaraṇa.[41] Devanagari राम दूत अतुलित बल धामा। अंजनि पुत्र पवनसुत नामा॥ २ ॥ Hunterian rāma dūta atulita bala dhāmā। anjani putra pavanasuta nāmā॥ 2 ॥ You are the trusted messenger of Rama and you are the abode of incomparable strength. You are ākaraṇa.[41] Devanagari राम दूत अतुलित बल धामा। अंजनि पुत्र पवनसुत नामा॥ २ ॥ Hunterian rāma dūta atulita bala dhāmā। anjani putra pavanasuta nāmā॥ 2 ॥ You are the trusted messenger of Rama and you are the abode of incomparable strength. You are known by the names of Anjaniputra (son of Anjana) and Pavanasuta (son of Vāyu).[29][30][42] Hanuman is called Anjaniputra as he was born from the womb of Anjana, who was an Apsara with the name Puñjikasthalā and was born as a Vanara by the curse of Agastya.[42] Hanuman is called Pavanasuta since Vāyu carried the divine power of Shiva into Anjana's womb, and since the Valmiki Ramayana calls Hanuman as Vāyu's own son (mārutasyaurasaḥ putraḥ).[42][43] Devanagari महावीर विक्रम बजरंगी। कुमति निवार सुमति के संगी॥ ३ ॥ Hunterian mahāvīra vikrama bajarangī। kumati nivāra sumati ke sangī॥ 3 ॥ You are the great hero, you are endowed with valour, your body is as strong as Indra's Vajra. You are the destroyer of vile intellect, and you are the companion of one whose intellect is pure.[29][30][44] Rambhadracharya explains the word bajarangī to come from Sanskrit Vajrāṅgī and gives two meanings of the word bikrama based on the root kram in Sanskrit and usage of the verb form vikramasva in Valmiki Ramayana –[44] Hanuman is endowed with special progression of sādhanā (penance). Hanuman is endowed with the special action of going over or across, i.e. the crossing of the ocean Devanagari कंचन बरन बिराज सुबेसा। कानन कुंडल कुंचित केसा॥ ४ ॥ Hunterian kanchana barana birāja subesā। kānana kundala kunchita kesā॥ 4 ॥ #NgoAwneeWelfareSociety #NgoCrowCrowd #7566129036 #GlobalInfraSolution #SingerVijayGupta
