Hanumath Jayanthi 2025-26 - ஸ்ரீ ராமதூதம் சி’ரஸா நமாமி

There is only one by name Sri Rama, born in the lineage of Ikshwaku.  He is totally balanced, one in complete control of His words, thoughts and deeds; a man of great valour ~ a person of steadfast character and radiant countenance – Lord Sree Rama  .. .. and His most obedient servant was the all powerful Aanjaneya.

Think about Hanuman,  what strikes immediately is his unparallelled devotion for Lord Rama and his unrivalled physical strength.  Hanumar, by various names Aanjaneyar, Chiranjeevi, Vayu Puthirar, Anjanai Mainthan is associated with celibacy, wrestling, physical power, intense concentration, mental toughness, single minded devotion and more.  Hanumar is remembered for his spirit of ‘selfless service’; and is believed to be present wherever, whenever there is recitation of the name of Lord Rama.  Though Hanumath Jayanthi is celebrated in various times of year in various places and mostly on moola nakshathiram of Margazhi month – at Thiruvallikkeni divyadesam, it is day 4 of Irapathu uthsavam.   

At Thiruvallikeni divyadesam, there is sannathi of Pavana guru  Hanumar right in front of Lord Rama and is on the way to the Moolavar Sri Venkatakrishnan sannathi.  This Aanjaneyar  has purappadu once in a year and hence rare to get his darshan on the thiruveethi and photograph him too.  Rarer still is the kulakkarai Anjaneyar.  The sannathi for siriya thiruvadi at East Tank Square St is attached to the Temple. In every purappadu, there would be sri sadagopam maryathai for Anjaneya too.  This Hanumar never comes out and hence more tougher to have a photograph, perhaps the only occasion being His balalayam for renovation when he comes to the main temple and goes back on Samprokshanam day.  

Today – day 4 of Irapathu Uthsavam – Margazhi Mirugaseersham, Chathurthasi -  celebrated at ‘Hanumath Jayanthi’ at Thiruvallikkeni divyadesam.
