Hanuman Chalisa – Introduction
The word “chalisa” was derived from Hindi word “chalis” which means the number forty(40). It represents 40 verses/stanzes in the hymn (excluding the introduction 2 dohas (doha means 2 lines – couplets) & concluding 1 doha).
Hanuman Chaleesa is a devotional song dedicated to Lord Hanuman. It is recited to get clear and focused mind with full of energy and concentration. Reciting it helps a person to channelize their energy and provides a total focus of mind and body. Reciting or chanting of this Chalisa is a common religious practice among millions of Hindus all across the globe.
Lord Hanuman is an ardent devotee of Lord Rama who is the 7th incarnation of Lord Vishnu in the dashavatar. God Hanuman is one of the central characters in the Indian epic story, the Ramayana.
In Hanuman Chalisa, the qualities of Lord Hanuman are clearly narrated in detail which includes his strength, courage, knowledge, celibacy, utter most devotion to Lord Rama and many other alternate names (see below) of Lord Hanuman.
About Tulisidas
Tulsidas[2] was a legendary Hindu poet (renowned for his devotion to Lord Rama). Epic Ramcharitmanas – a retelling of the Ramayana in the Devanagari vernacular is considered as one of his best work. Many claim that Tulsidas was a reincarnation of Valmiki who was the original composer the epic Ramayana in Sanskrit. History shows that Tulsidas lived all life in the city of Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, India. In Varansi, he founded the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman where many believe that he got the sight of God Hanuman.
