this book of stories has been written as a celebration of the most lovable and inspiring qualities of Hanuman, the beloved monkey-God of the Hindu pantheon. Hanuman's life is an inspiration because most of us go through moments of mischief and laughter, sadness and doubt, triumph and trouble, like he did. However, he possessed a great medicine to deal with each one of life's situations - his love for Sri Rama. And we can draw courage and strength from his actions.Who was Hanuman Ji? Was the he a person given to deep reasoning or a simple monkey-like creature? Beliefs about a deity who might have been Hanuman Ji have been traced to the earliest Hindu scriptures-the Rig Ved downwards.
