Lord Hanuman is one of the most venerated Gods of the Hindus. Born as a Vanara to Anjani and Kesari, he possessed immense supernatural powers right from the beginning, and is considered as the symbol of strength and energy. Regarded as the eleventh incarnation of Lord Shiva, Hanuman is also dignified with the name Pavanputra, meaning the son of wind, as the Wind God Vayu played a major role in his birth. Lord Hanuman is one of the core contributors in rescuing Maa Sita, and defeating the demon king Ravana. He wields a mace as his weapon, and is known for his ability to shapeshift, infinite strength, perseverance and unfaltering devotion to Lord Rama.
