S.V.Temple, Cary, NC,Tuesday 7:30PM, EST
I have a habit of witnessing 'RamaRaksha Stotram and Hanuman Chalisa' at Hanuman Sannidhi every Tuesday. I Meditate and Distribute Prasadam.
One Tuesday, I was late to temple and decided to go Siva temple for Darshanam before I could go to Hanuman Sannidhi. While washing my legs at Siva Temple, I was able to hear Harathi Bell at Hanuman Sannidhi. Immediately thought provoken to me If I go to Hanuman Sannidhi, I will get an opportunity to Volunteer/Seva for Prasadam Disturbution.
I ran to Hanuman Sannidhi and collected Prasadam from the priest and disturbuted to the devotees. Once I was done with this, went to the Archaka swamy to seek the Blessings.
"To my Surprise, Priest took the Garland from Hanuman and gave it to me along with his Blessings". I was bursting with Happy tears and felt ecstatic
That point of time, I could recollect the below message.
Lord Hanuman is known as an incarnation of Lord Shiva OR Rudra Avatar. After Vishnu agreed to be born as a man to defeat Ravana, Brahma felt that he would need help, so he asked Shiva to take on an avatar as well. He is one of the central characters in Ramayana and whose immense devotion for Lord Rama is unmatched. He was the chief aid to Lord Rama in the war against demon king Ravana.
