Overview
Hanuman Puja for families in Lanka
Hanuman Puja is the worship of Lord Hanuman, the devoted servant of Shri Rama, revered for his strength, humility, courage and unwavering bhakti. He is also known as Bajrangbali, Pavanputra, Anjaneya and Sankat Mochan, the one who removes troubles.
Lanka is the busy neighbourhood outside the main gate of Banaras Hindu University (BHU). Its roads are full of students, teachers, shops and eateries, and the residential colonies around it are home to many university and hospital families.
मनोजवं मारुततुल्यवेगं जितेन्द्रियं बुद्धिमतां वरिष्ठम्।
वातात्मजं वानरयूथमुख्यं श्रीरामदूतं शरणं प्रपद्ये॥
Manojavaṁ mārutatulyavegaṁ jitendriyaṁ buddhimatāṁ variṣṭham, vātātmajaṁ vānarayūthamukhyaṁ śrīrāmadūtaṁ śaraṇaṁ prapadye.
Planning your puja in Lanka
Traffic around the BHU gate is heavy for much of the day; morning slots are usually easier.
Guest houses and rented rooms may not permit a havan, confirm before planning a fire ritual.
A Mahamrityunjaya jaap can be done with an online sankalp if the family cannot leave the hospital.
Assi Ghat is close by for pairing a home puja with a Ganga snan or tarpan.
Tuesdays and Saturdays are busy near the Hanuman temple, so allow extra time on those days.
