About this stotra
The Hanuman Ashtottara Sata Naama Stotram enumerates 108 sacred names of Lord Hanuman, the supreme devotee of Sri Rama and son of the Wind-god Vayu. The names span every dimension of his glory — his physical might (Mahavira, Vajrakaya), his selfless service (Ramaduta, Sitashokanivaraka), his wisdom (Tatvajnanaprada, Vagadhisha), his miraculous deeds (Sagarottaraka, Sanjiivananagaharta), and his unbroken devotion (Chiranjiivi, Ramabhakta). Recitation of these 108 names is believed to bestow protection, remove obstacles, cure diseases, and grant all auspicious boons.
