rickesh 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2007 namaste to all! i am a devotee of shri hanumanji. i have heard of something called the 'hanuman mantra chamatkaaraanushtthaan' written by Shankaracharya. i would be most greatful if anyone can give me the full mantra ( i think there are 20 verses). i would also like to know if there are any other ways to please shri hanumanji such as sadhnas or mantras which may grant shri hanumanji's grace or siddhis. thankyou.

Guest guest Report post Posted February 8, 2007 The only way to win Hanuman's grace is by following Dvaita. There is no other way. Ever! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted February 8, 2007 Also, asking for sankara's mantra on hanuman is like asking for ravana's mantra on Rama! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted February 8, 2007 For more information on Dvaita Vedanta, please visit dvaita.org, tatvavada.org, dvaita.net. You'll find Hanuman Shlokas there. Dvaita was given to us by the third avatar of Vayu, Srimad Acharya, the first two incarnations being Hanuman and Bhimasena. As to Sankara, this is what garuda purana has to say about him. Garudapurana (Brahma kanda, 16th adhyAya) maNimAnnAma daityastu shaN^karAkhyo bhaviShyati | sarveShAM saN^karaM yastu kariShyati na saMshayaH || tena shaN^karanAmA.asau bhaviShyati khageshvara | dharmAn.h bhAgavatAn.h sarvAn.h vinashyati sarvathA || A Demon by name maNimAn will come into being as Shankara, who will, no doubt, pollute everything. This is why, O King of birds (Garuda), his name will be Shankara; he will pollute and destroy all BhAgavata Dharmas. ************************************** No wonder Dvaitins stay away from Sankara! Also Hanuman in his next incarnation as Bhimasena kills him, these details are there in Mahabharata. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted February 8, 2007 To rickesh, Many of the posters here are Vaishnavas and are opposed to Shankaracharya and his teachings as they are different to the gurus they follow. They are very biased and I would advise you to post you questions on an Advaita or Shankaracharya board. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Garuda Purana calls Sankara a demon. You might want to contact Garuda and ask him to keep his mouth shut! 1. If Garuda purana called shankara a demon, then why did the opponents of Advaita just not quote this verse and be done with it instead of writing volumes against Advaita? 2. Going back another step further, why did people become advaitins? The Garuda purana verse is as explicit as can be and no one would become Advaitins to begin with. 3. Can you show this quote being used by any legitimate scholar from a few hundred years ago like Ramanuja or Madhva? I do not think so. It is just another interpolation to be found in puranas.

It is just another interpolation to be found in puranas. It's explicitly mentioned in "SUMADHVA VIJAYA" and "MANIMANJARI" written by Sri Narayana Panditacharya, a close disciple of Sri Madhva. He wrote it, when Madhva was still alive. Happy now? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He wrote it, when Madhva was still alive. Happy now? No. I am not. In other words, the answer to my question (3) is NO. You also have not answered the first two questions. There are some islam web sites which claim Muhammad was predicted in the Vedas and Puranas as the one who would proclaim the true religion. Why is this not known to Hindus? The reason provided is it is secret knowledge which is carefully guarded by Brahmanas and not made public. The Garuda Purana claim is no way less ridiculous than this islam claim.
