The Son of the God of Wind: The Exploits of Sri Hanumana

by Pandit Atma Ram Sharma

The present work is the result of translation of selected stories about Sri Hanumana by late Pandit Atma Ram Sharma, a Sanskrit teacher at Scindia School, Swalior, Madhya Pradesh. Although the translation is of selected stories only, it makes a coherent and well-connected reading. The translated version was edited by Dr. A.K. Monga. The final reading of the manuscript was done by Dr. G.P. Bhatt who also provided the diacritical marks.

For the Hindus, Hanumana personifies the highest level of devotion to Lord Rama, an incarnation of Visnu. That is the reason he is held in such high esteem. The book may be of particular interest to non-resident Indians who are always eager to be emotionally connected with their religious and cultural roots.
