********************************
Let him, the embodiment of all the virtues known as Lord ShreeRaamaChandra who fulfils all the wishes of his devotees and who is like a bee that keeps humming around the Lotus face of goddess Seetadevi , bestow upon us all the auspicious things continuously.....
Towards such a magnanimous Lord ShreeRaama chandra, Hanuman ji has extolled himself as a humble sevak....
" daasoham koasalendrasya....."
Considering the fact that Lord Hanuman is none other than Lord Rudra himself, who gave a word to Lord Shreemannaaraayana after Tripurasura Vadha that he would serve him as his master in the form of an ape when Lord Vishnu takes his avataar as a human being to slay the Demon Raavana in the treta yuga.....
( Lord ShreeMahaaVishnu helped Lord Shiva by moulding himself in to an extremely powerful divine arrow that has smashed the tripurams, the 3 flying mansions that kept travelling in 3 differing planes of Bhuloka, Bhuvarloka, Suvarloka made up of Iron, Silver and Gold built by Tripurasura who has secured a boon that he can be killed only by Lord Shiva that too when all of his 3 flying mansions come in to a straight line......
He was intelligent enough to ensure that they keep flying in 3 different planes and always took care that all 3 of them never crossed their paths for all apparent reasons.....
However as it goes, every cloud has its silver lining....On one fine day he thought to see if he can really be challenged by Lord Shiva if all his 3 flying mansions align in a straight line just for a very small fraction of time......as and when he allowed that most weirdest act to happen only to get killed by a razor sharp arrow shot by Lord Rudra who was only waiting for that moment to arrive, the most arduous Tripuraasura Vadha became a huge success giving a great relief to all the gods and other saadhu folks being tortured by the Demon Tripurasura considering himself as invincible.....)
And thus do we see a mention of Lord Rudra and his Tripuraasura Vadha in Shree VaalmikiRaamayan as stated in the below verse.....
hanumata veagavata vaanareaNamahaatmanaa
lankaapuram pradagdham tadrudreaNa tripuram yatha
హనుమత వేగవత వానరేణమహాత్మనా
లంకాపురం ప్రదగ్ధం తద్రుద్రేణ త్రిపురం యథా
Lord Hanuman is a unique embodiment of all the virtues and the entirety of the powers that exist under the Sun........
There is no entity in this entire Universe that can match up to his Knowledge, Strength, Wisdom, Power, Valor, and so on and so forth......
You name it....He has it.......!
( As we all know, it is a result of that incident where in he just rose to the skies to gulp in the Sun assuming it to be some sort of fruit and was hit by Lord Indra's Vajraayudha only to invoke the wrath of his celestial father Lord Vayudeva who has then ensured to have Aanjaneya secure the blessings of every celestial entity in this universe thus making him the most invincible and unconquerable God forever......)
During one of the most ferocious attack on the Ravana's force in the AshokaVanam, Lord Hanuman states,
na raavaNasahasram mea yuddheapratibalambhaveat
SilaabhiScha praharata@h paadapaiScha sahasraSa@h...
న రావణసహస్రం మే యుద్ధేప్రతిబలంభవేత్
శిలాభిశ్చ ప్రహరతః పాదపైశ్చ సహస్రశః...
i.e., Even if thousand Ravans are put together, they would all be simply killed by his powerful attack with the huge boulders lying around and by getting crushed under his legs, and it will be continued towards any number of folks coming his way .....
Once his Rudra Tejam gets activated it is enough to destroy any entity in this universe so there is no question of any person ever winning Hanuman in a battle with him......
Sadguru Sree ChaaganTi gaaru clearly explains the importance of Hanuma in the entire Raamayana while teaching us the glory of SundaraKaaanda...
( the only Kaanda whose name differs from the rest of the 5 Kaandaas that are named after their respective geographical locations of occurrence or by the time of their occurrence...... )
BaalaKaanda - Refers to the happenings during Lord ShreeRaam's baalyam
AyodhyaKaanda - Refers to the happenings during Lord ShreeRaam's stay in the Ayodhya
AranyaKaanda - Refers to the happenings during Lord ShreeRaam's vanavaas
KishkindhaKaada - Refers to the happenings during Lord ShreeRaam's friendship with the king of the apes, Lord Sugreeva in his Kishkinda province...
SundaraKaanda - ?
Refers to the happenings from Hanuman's 'Samudralanghanam' to Lanka and returning with goddess Sita's 'ChooDamani ' as a sovenier from her to Lord ShreeRaam.....
YuddhaKaanda - Refers to the happenings during the Lord ShreeRaam's battle in Lanka.
There is a famous verse about the magnanimous SundakaKaanda....
SundareSundaroRaamaha
SundareSundariSeeta
SundareSundarahKapihi
Sundarekimnasundaram...?
Though SundaraKaanda is all about Hanuman's great deeds it isn't named as HanumadKaanda or AanjaneyaKaanda or anything else other than SundaraKaanda.....Now that speaks for the greatness of Hanuman.....!
Let's take a few key incidents from the ShreeRaamaayanam to discuss the greatness of Hanuman and also to discuss the spiritual message hiding behind those acts of exceptional intelligence and unmatched valor of Hanuman.....
Our scriptures are like vast oceans of knowledge and wisdom though they look like a simple collection of various intertwined interesting legends. Only an established sadguru can reveal the encrypted and embedded spirituality behind those so called simple looking incidents that hold an unfathomable amount of wisdom behind their occurrence and explanations by our revered seers.....
Let me take the below 3 key incidents and explain you the awe-inspiring knowledge and wisdom proposed by them, which are probably known only to a very few personalities across the world that can be counted on fingers....
Because it isn't mentioned anywhere in the Raamayan and the corresponding Shloka holds this message in an encrypted form.... ( It is like a Triple DES algorithm that requires a public key called " Thorough Knowledge " coupled with a private key called " Extensive Wisdom " to be used in conjunction to decrypt the cipher at multiple levels and extract the embedded essence. )
1. Lord Hanuman killing Akshakumaara, Ravana's younger Son, in one of the most awful fashion by swirling him in the air @ several thousands of RPM....
2. Lord Hanuman and Lord Lakshman killing the unconquerable Meghanaatha, with a never before known ShreeRaamaNaamaDharmaastram.....
3. Lord Hanuman praying Lord Vayudeva to adjust the tilt of the arrow shot by Lord ShreeRaam so that it hits him below his navel region where in his life is secured in the form of "PanchaPraanaKumbhakam".
When we look at these incidents in a casual way they just talk about some X killed some Y in a so and so fashion and finished the battle.....
However, only a deep intellectual analysis would reveal the celestial encryptions behind them and their occurrence......
So let's begin our decryption of those incidents..... 😊
1. Akshakumaara Vadha :
Just like many other demons were slayed down by Hanuman in his natural style of extremely powerful blows and crushing them under his legs, this arrogant fellow too would have been given his share of
what it means to put up with Hamuman.
However he was killed in a completely different style that Hanuman hasn't used before to kill any demons... Why...??
After a few regular hits and blows,
Hanuman ji got hold of the two legs and dragged Akshakumaara in to the air all of a sudden and started swirling @ several thousands of RPMs that made them literally invisible to the folks around other than those hazy edges of the centrifugal force exertion by Hanuman on that arrogant fellow.....
This blew off his head first and then his two hands and then his neck to navel part and then both the thighs and then both the legs and finally when Hanuman stopped his whirlpool that led to a blood pool in the battle field, he descended and threw off those two left over leg heel / ankle pieces from his hands ....
Such a horrific punishment it was for Akshakumaara for his extreme head strongness that literally knew no bounds.....This is the only incident that was executed by Hanuma in this gruesome fashion instead of his regular style of just a few strong blows and smashing by his legs..
Why....??
Ksha represents Kshayam....
Aksha represents Akshayam or never-ending .....
Being on the Raavan's side, AkshaKumaara symbolises never-ending negative energies, problems, troubles, issues and all that hardships which keep irking us beyond our bearable thresholds and those ill minded folks who create them.....
Now if a devotee prays and takes refugee in Lord Hanuman by submitting his unbearable problems to him,
Lord Hanuman would immediately exert his inescapable hold on the root of the problem ( holding the feet of Akshakumaara signifies this....)
so that it doesn't move / grow / bother anymore..... And then he would completely blow it away so very well that it will cease to exist in its entirety in the eternal cycles of time that could manifest such at a later point in time.... Hence all the allied problems, that we probably aren't aware of, too would get wiped off without giving them any chance to persist and make their recurrence in the countless cycles of the time ....
This is the actual embedded spiritual message in the AkshakumaaraVadha....
2. MeghaNaatha Vadha :
Raavan's another son was heralded as 'Indrajith' to remind this world about his invincible valor that has captured even Devendra, thus making him standing next to none in the battle field.....
He is a person full of wickedness and he masters the art of using several dark energies to win his battles by hiding behind the clouds and thus literally making it impossible to see/reach him, set aside winning him.....
So a battle with Meghanaatha is like fighting an invisible flying guy who swoops in all of a sudden from the clouds and kills his enemies from any given direction which would only mean that he is invincible......
However, Hanuma and Lakshman were taught by VibheeShana, about the secret behind the Meghanaatha's usage of dark energies that makes him unconquerable in any battle. As it goes, this arrogant guy performs a special 'dark energy awakening homam' known as " NikumbhalaHomam " which bestows him all the powers to kill any number of enemies in the battle followed by the homam on that day.....
So the only way to kill that rogue is to ensure that he doesn't complete that Homam successfully, by spoiling it before it can confer on him that extra energy of invincibility......which makes him mortal enough to be slayed down by his enemies....
Lord ShreeRaam chose both Hanuma and Lakshman to kill this guy as advised by VibheeShana and they set out accordingly......
Hold on for a second.....
Why only these two....?
Why not Lakshman alone or Hanuman alone or as a matter of fact Lord ShreeRaam alone or any others for this task of killing Meghanaatha ...?
Here comes the decrypted message in choosing the two mighty warriors to slay Meghanaatha......
Lakshmana is none other than AadiShesha, the thousand hooded mighty divine serpent on which Lord ShreeMahaaVishnu rests......
( i.e., he holds the universal DharmaShakti that has no parallel in the entirety of the Cosmos......
"dharmasyaprabhurachyutaha...." is what VishnuSahasram tells us...... And that "Achyuta DharmaShakti" rests on AadiSesha there by enabling him to have a hold of the same by Lord's grace...... )
We can see this truth in the Ramayana at various incidents very clearly.....
Lakshman is always a high voltage guy who is ever ready to put up with anyone even at the slightest act of locking horns with him......
A snake would never leave those who have inflicted pain on it and have got themselves as a target to be traced and hissed at to take the vengeance accordingly.....
It will sleep only after it gets satiated by looking at it's venom guzzling through the veins of its enemies lying down with froth oozing from their mouth after being bitten by it......
Similarly, Lord Lakshman is raging with vengeance on Meghanaatha after being hit by Naagaastram and getting saved by the Sanjeevani brought down by Hanuman.......
Imagine the insult that a snake has to live with where in it has been attacked by its own species ( Naagaastram ) and was unable to overcome with it's counter energies on them accordingly....
Here Lakshman is like a capacitor holding an extreme amount of powerful divine venom of aadishesha and Hanuman, needless to say, is like the raging fire of Rudra's 3rd eye that can reduce any entity in this universe to ashes......
So the rightful combination of such a raging fire mixed with an extremely conductive venomous fuel is certainly bound to destroy it's target irrespective of anything and everything......
and thus was the chosen combination....
And as we all know, having exhausted all of his divine Astraas, finally Lakshman prayed and used his brother's unparalleled DharmaShakti as a never before known Astram to slay down the wicked Meghanaatha which was equal to half victory achieved...... Indeed such a tough guy was Meghanaatha, who could only be killed by two powerful warriors who had to work in tandem to reduce him to the ashes.....
3. The ultimate Raavana Vadha that marks the end of poulastya pourusham on the kaanchana Lakaa saamraajyam......
( that was allegedly stolen from his cousin Kubera.....)
A famous phrase below captures what made him a tough guy to be won....
"RaamaRaavanaYuddham RaamaRaavanayoriva......"
Finally after a great never before known battle was fought, when Rama was told by VibheeShana that he needs to aim the region below Raavan's navel part where in he has his life locked up in the form of "PanchaPraaNakumbhakam...."
which makes him unconquerable no matter how many arrows are shot at him above his navel part which is the typical order of any genuine battle.....
Raama has gracefully denied saying that it is against the Dhanurvedam to aim anyone below their navel region and so he wouldn't do that even after multiple requests......
Rama is more of a soft going dude like Ethan Hunt ( Tom Cruise ) in his MI series of movies.....and he doesn't prefer unwanted illegitimate war fare to complete his task.....He always wishes for a smooth going execution style with minimal or no casualties.........
Hanuman having understood that his master would not deviate from the tenets of his Dhanurvedavidya,
makes a prayer to his celestial father Vayudeva to help him by altering the tilt of the divyaastram aimed at Raavana so that they can achieve the very purpose of their avataar duo ...
( ie., Raavanasura can only be killed by Humans and Apes that were his only "ignored species" while asking a boon from Brahmadeva..... )
Thus, Hanuman is the only greatest personality on the planet earth who rose from an ape to an unparalleled divine immortal God existing even today fulfilling the wishes of all his devotees and carrying the legacy of the mighty "ShreemadRaamayanam" across the 14 worlds as long as the Sun, the Moon and the other stars shine brightly in the glorious skies......!! 😊
Shree Annamaachaarya has blessed us with umpteen sankeertans on various Gods attributing all of them to Lord ShreeVenkateshwara in the final charanam and there are many great ones praising Lord Hanuma's magnanimity....
In one such jewels of the Annamayya Hanumad Sankeertanams, the saint poet quite majestically reiterates the same stating....
" Ihamuna Raama Bantai.....ippuDuu unna vaaDu.....aharahamuna doDDaHanumanta raayaDu....." 😊
