Lord Hanuman born
According to legend, Hanuman’s birth took place at the same time as Prince Rama’s: their stories are woven together from the very beginning. Rama’s father, a King, was praying to the Gods that he would soon have children – while at the same time, Hanuman’s mother Anjana, who was half-monkey, was also worshipping the Gods.
The Gods appreciated the King’s prayers, and sent him some heavenly pudding called payasam, to share between his three wives. This led to the births of Prince Rama – the main character in the Ramayana – and his brothers. Due to the Gods’ appreciation for Anjana’s worship, they instructed Vayu, the God of wind and air, to take a bite of Pasayam pudding while it was floating in the sky to the king.Anjana had payasam delivered by Vayu, and she ate it, thanking the gods. Anjana gave birth to a baby boy, Hanuman, because of this pudding spoonful. Hanuman’s mother Anjana had a monkey shape, but Vayu took the young boy to be his son, leading to his being considered a God.
