Margali month is considered to be one of the important months by Tamil people across the globe. This year, the date of Hanuman Jayanti in Tamilnadu is going to be held on 28th December 2016.



Lord Hanuman is an avatar of Lord Shiva and is regarded as a symbol of strength and energy. Hanuman was born to Anjana and Kesari in Anjana Giri Mountain. Hanuman was an ardent devotee of Lord Rama and is one of the central characters in Hindu epic Ramayana. According to a popular belief Hanuman is present wherever the story or Lord Rama is recited.

Hence Hanuman devotees read Ramayana on Hanuman Jayanthi and recite prayers dedicated to Lord Ram and Hanuman.Special poojas are conducted on Hanuman Temples and Sree Rama temples from early dawn as it is believed that Hanuman was born on early morning.

Worshipping Hanuman will help to attain mental and physical strength, devotion, knowledge, glory, prosperity and success in life.
