Jai Shri Ram Hanuman was named after the root 'Hanu' meaning Jaw after His jaw was fractured by falling on a mountain when hit by Indra's Vajra, when Hanuman was on His way to eat the Sun. Worshiping Hanuman gives one relief from the negative effects of both Mangal and Shani , hence one must worship Him daily 40 represents a mandala, a sacred circle denoting completion. Hence Hanuman Chalisa comprising of 40 verses is a completed sacred verse which can be recited daily. The word Bajrang is derived from two sanskrit words Vajra (Diamond) and Ang (Body) and signifies that His body is as strong as a diamond In Rama Rahasya Upanishad verse 105 , the beej mantra of Hanuman is given as Hrum (हृ) Hence one can chant Om Hrum Hanumate Namaha 108 times daily for getting the blessings of Hanuman. Panchmukhi Hanuman is a powerful aspect of Shri Hanuman. We can understand and chant Panchmukhi Hanuman Kavach for His protection and Grace. It is equivalent to worshipping five deities namely Hanuman, Garuda, Narasimha, Varaha and Hayagriva Sundara Kanda which is the fifth chapter of Valmiki Ramayana has sixty eight sections and Hanuman Ji is the central character of this. We can read 1 section of Sundara Kanda every Tuesday Thanks.
Namaste For last two months or so I had discontinued chanting Shri Ram Raksha Strotra due to office work etc. Today morning I got a dream in which I was chanting Shri Ram Raksha Strotra with a relative sitting besides me. In the dream I forgot the last few lines of the strotra and my relative mentioned that I have become forgetful I then remembered the lines and even as I was chanting the lines , I woke up and completed the strotra Henceforth planning to resume daily chanting of the strotra as I used to do earlier
