About this stotra

Hanumat Pancharatnam is a five-verse hymn attributed to Sri Adi Shankaracharya in praise of Hanuman, the son of the wind god. The devotee contemplates him in the heart as Sita's Lord's foremost messenger, free of worldly desire and filled with bliss.

The verses unfold Hanuman's compassionate form and his deeds: restoring Sita, revealing Rama's glory, and destroying Ravana's pride. This edition presents the five main verses without the phala shruti.
