The Hanuman Chalisa is a Hindu devotional hymn addressed to Hanuman.It is traditionally believed to have been authored by Tulsidas in the Awadhi language,and is his best known text apart from the Ramcharitmanas.The word "chālīsā" is derived from "chālīs", which means the number forty in Hindi, as the Hanuman Chalisa has 40 verses (excluding the couplets at the beginning and at the end).
Hanuman is a vanara a devotee of Rama, and one of the central characters in the Sanskrit epic Ramayana. Folk tales increasingly eulogise the powers of Hanuman, and he is considered by many to be an avatar of the god Shiva.[5] The qualities of Hanuman – his strength, courage, wisdom, celibacy, devotion to Rama and the many names by which he was known – are detailed in the Hanuman Chalisa. There are more temples devoted to Hanuman than any other deity in India, and recitation of the Hanuman Chalisa is a common religious practice.
