Eternal Hanuman

By Shrikala Warrier

Hanuman, one of the most popular deities in the Hindu pantheon, first appears in the Valmiki Rāmāyana and since then has captured the hearts and imagination of poets, saints, and scholars.

This book explores the vast corpus of Rāmāyaņa literature within, and beyond India, including folk-lore and sthalapurāņas, as well as the performing arts and iconography, to provide a composite picture of the many facets of this invincible Monkey-God.

Hanuman is the quintessential bhakta, and as Rāmā's dearest devotee he is worshipped by millions of Hindus, and many non-Hindus, as the bridge to Godhead, and as the deity to turn to for relief from physical and mental distress.
