Hanuman Puja During Diwali: Significance

Hanuman Puja is a sacred ritual performed a day before Diwali, especially in Gujarat and western parts of India. This day coincides with Kali Chaudas, a time believed to be when negative energies are most active. Devotees worship Lord Hanuman, the divine protector, to seek strength, courage, and protection from evil forces.

The worship of Hanuman on this night symbolizes spiritual cleansing and divine protection, ensuring that devotees are free from fear, negativity, and obstacles. Offering oil lamps, sindoor, and flowers to Lord Hanuman is considered highly auspicious on this day.

Hanuman Puja and the Legend of Lord Rama

According to sacred texts, Diwali marks the return of Lord Rama to Ayodhya after defeating Ravana and completing fourteen years of exile. Lord Hanuman’s unwavering devotion played a major role in this victory. Pleased with Hanuman’s loyalty, Lord Rama blessed him to be worshipped before Himself. Hence, devotees perform Hanuman Puja one day before Diwali as a mark of gratitude and devotion.

Hanuman Puja in Ayodhya

In Ayodhya’s Hanumangarhi Temple, this day is also celebrated as a form of Hanuman Jayanti, though most North Indians observe Hanuman Jayanti on Chaitra Purnima. Devotees visit temples, offer prayers, and chant Hanuman Chalisa to invoke the blessings of the mighty Lord.

Hanuman Puja 2025 is not just a prelude to Diwali but a spiritually powerful day to honor Lord Hanuman, the embodiment of devotion, strength, and fearlessness. By performing this puja, devotees invite positivity, protection, and divine blessings into their homes ahead of the grand festival of lights.
