Hanuman Ji's Real Name: Unveiling the Hidden Truth Beyond Bajrangbali
- •Hanuman Ji's real name was not Hanuman; it was Sundar, a fact known to very few.
- •He received the name 'Hanuman' after Lord Indra's thunderbolt injured his jawbone ('Hanu') during his childhood attempt to eat the Sun.
- •The gods blessed him with invincibility, making his body as strong as a thunderbolt, leading to the name 'Bajrangbali'.
- •He is also known as 'Anjaneya' as he is the son of Mother Anjana, connecting him to his lineage.
- •The name 'Sundar' reflects his beautiful form, pure character, and devotion, as mentioned in the Ramayana's Kishkindha Kanda and Sundarkand.
Why It Matters: Hanuman Ji's true name was Sundar, with other names reflecting key life events and divine attributes.
