Sunderkaand Paath

Sunderkand is the fifth chapter of the Hindu holy book called 'Ramayan'. The Ramayana has been divided into following chapters by Tulsidas as per the events and importance of the life of lord shri Ram. The SunderKand which is a chapter in the 'Ram-Charit-Maanas', penned by Goswami Tulsidas is considered to be as auspicious to read, as it is to recite the 'Hanuman Chaalisa'. In the Sunder-kand, Hanumanji is reminded by Jambavan about the fact that Hanumanji has great powers that the latter has no memory of. In this case Hanumanji is made to remember about the fact that he is capable of flying. Jambavan exhorted Hanuman to undertake the crossing of the Mighty Ocean. Hanumanji's flight was necessary to search for Seeta who had been abducted by Raavan. Seeta is symbolic of Bhakti or devotion. To reach her one has to don the wings of prayer and love. Hanumanji is now all ready to take the leap. Let us take the flight with him in search of Love incarnate.
