Meaning
- Salutations to Hanuman — the son of Anjana, the mighty son of Vayu, immensely strong, ever devoted to Lord Rama, the dear friend of Arjuna, with reddish eyes and limitless valor.
- He who crossed the vast ocean, destroyed Sita’s sorrow, revived Lakshmana with life-giving herbs, and crushed the pride of the ten-headed Ravana.
- Whoever recites these twelve divine names of the great Hanuman daily — especially before sleep or while travelling — shall have no fear of death and will always be victorious.
Summary:
The Sri Anjaneya Dvadasa Nama Stotram praises twelve sacred names of Lord Hanuman, each reflecting his boundless devotion, strength, courage, and protection.
These names embody the divine qualities of Hanuman as the messenger of Rama, destroyer of evil, and savior of devotees.
Chanting them daily removes fear, grants inner strength, and ensures victory in all endeavors.
It is said that one who repeats these names, especially before sleeping or during journeys, is guarded by Hanuman Himself from death and danger.
This short yet potent stotra is a complete shield — invoking not just protection, but also the spirit of service, humility, and fearless devotion.
