Details: Sundara Kaanda - Original text, its Romanization & Hindi-English translations.

Hanuman possessed devotion, knowledge, spirit of selfless service, power of celibacy, and desirelessness. He never boasted of his bravery and intelligence. The world has not yet seen and will not see in future also a mighty hero like Sri Hanuman. During his life he worked wonders and exhibited superhuman feats of strength and valour. He has left behind him a name which, as long as the world lasts, will continue wielding a great influence over the minds of millions of people.

Lord Hanuman is worshipped for power and protection. Hanuman is described to be one for whom nothing is impossible and who is the embodiment of faith, devotion, fearlessness, self-confidence, and loyalty. Valmiki goes on to point out that success is the outcome of such an attitude. Hanuman in one interpretation is the incarnation or reflection of Shiva.

Other interpretations such as that of Dvaita consider Hanuman to be the son or a manifestation of Vayu, god of wind.

Hanuman Jayanthi, marks a symbolic acceptance of the human race's peaceful co-existence with nature and the worship of an animal as a divine creature.
