Origin & History
Source: The beej mantra of Lord Hanuman
Author: Traditional (Vedic / Puranic)
"Om Han Hanumate Namah" is the seed mantra of Lord Hanuman — the mighty son of the wind, the supreme devotee of Sri Rama and the remover of all troubles (Sankat Mochan). His beej "Han" carries the very vibration of strength and fearless protection. On Tuesdays and Saturdays, and in every moment of fear or difficulty, devotees chant this mantra to call upon Bajrangbali's courage, power and ever-watchful protection.
