About Hanuman Jayanti

Hanuman Jayanti celebrates the birth of Hanuman, son of Anjana and Kesari and blessed by the Wind God (Vayu). In most of North India it falls on the full moon of Chaitra (Chaitra Purnima), while several regions observe it at other times of the year. Devotees visit Hanuman temples, recite the Hanuman Chalisa and offer sindoor, flowers and sweets.
