Hanuman-Languren oder Hulmane zählen als Kulturfolger und heilige Tiere zu den bekanntesten Affenarten Indiens. Benannt sind sie nach Hanuman, einem indischen Gott in Affengestalt. Sie dürfen nicht verfolgt oder gejagt werden. Deswegen dürfen sie sich auch ganz unbehelligt an den Obststangeboten der Straßenhändler bedienen.
This rocky little mountain with the small temple on the top, overlooking the Tungabhadra river and landscape surrounding Hampi, is said to be the birth place of Hanuman - the monkey god; and essential protagonist in the Indian and Southeast Asian pantheon and mythology.
Besides that, Hampi was the capital of the Vijayanagara Hindu kingdom and by 1500 CE the 2nd largest city in the world after Beijing. The Vijayanagara empire was defeated by a coalition of Mughal sultanates, its capital conquered and destroyed in 1565. Today the ruins of over 1,000 monuments, temples and fortifications are spread over a vast area in a rocky terrain with bizarre boulder formations, all designated as UNESCO World Heritage site.

Musée dans un palais nommé d'après la sculpture d' Hanumān située à l'entrée.
Hanumān est dans l'hindouisme un vanara, héros du Rāmāyaṇa, une épopée qui raconte le périple de Râma. Fils de Pavana, le dieu du vent, et de la déesse Anjanâ, il a l'apparence d'un singe et plus précisément d'un langur à face noire
Il est décrit comme assez fort pour soulever des montagnes, tuer des démons et rivaliser de vitesse avec Garuda, l'oiseau véhicule de Vishnu.
Dans l'hindouisme moderne, c'est un dieu très populaire dans les villages.
Hanumān est le dieu-singe, patron des lutteurs, dieu de la sagesse. Il est souvent représenté avec une massue (gadā). À l'origine Hanumān était le gardien des propriétés et tout fondateur d'un nouveau village se devait d'ériger sa statue.
The Royal Barges are one of Bangkok’s most fascinating sights, housed in sheds in The Royal Barge National Museum on Bangkok Noi Canal on the Thonburi side of the Chao Praya River.
These are not barges in the sense of vessels employed to carry cargo up and down the river but are ornately decorated boats with magnificently carved prows that at one time served a military function. Today they are limited to use in State ceremonies and celebrations.
The most impressive and important of the boats is Suphanahong, the King’s personal barge. Built in 1911 the 46 metre craft was hewn from a single tree and is covered with intricate gilt carvings and colourful pieces of glass, forming an eye-catching mosaic. There is a golden pavilion on board to house the King and his Royal family.
There are several other barges in the museum and on their bows sit a variety of figureheads taken from Thai mythology, the Ramakian. This barge features Hanuman the monkey - minus its ceremonial flagstaffs in either hand.
I shot this while out with buddy neilalderney123 and couldn't resist this post as he also posted today one from our trip.
Statue of Hanuman from the Malai tola village nar Attock. There are many deserted Hindu temples in that area. A local had the statue and just wanted to show me. It looked like an authentic piece.
AAW June 6 - 13: Statue or Sculptue
WIT: This is a statue of Hanuman, a Hindu god and divine vanara (monkey) companion to the god Rama. He is viewed as the ideal combination of strength, heroic excellence, and known for his devotion to his personal god, Rama. This is the largest statue of Hanuman in North America. It was a rainy day, and I happened to take advantage of a short break in the rain to take this pic, luckily.
After months of waiting and hoping nobody paint over it, the car that parked forever thereat in the middle of this masterpiece, finally left.
In Ramayana, the pastime of Lord Rama (incarnation of Lord Krishna) on earth, Hanuman was His devoted servitor.
This wall depicts Hanuman carry a hill from the Himalayas.
The story is Lord Rama was seriously injured in the battlefield whilst attempting to rescue His consort, Sita Devi Who was kidnapped by a demon King Ravana of Lanka (Ceylon / Sri Lanka). Hanuman was ordered by a physician to obtain certain types of herbs available in Himalaya. As Hanuman was unable to recognise the herb therefore, he lifted the whole hill back to the battlefield.
I was fortunate to have documented and seen this masterpiece by #sinnaone from day one to completion. A very friendly artist.
Thank you for viewing. If you like please fav and leave a nice comment. Hope to see you here again. Have a wonderful day 😊

C'était une famille : un couple et leur enfant. L'homme, déguisé, posait complaisamment, pour son épouse ainsi qu'avec les personnes qui le sollicitaient pour des selfies. Le petit, par contre, n'aura guère apprécié son après-midi : il eut préféré jouer que poser pour des photos, il cherchait continuellement à s'échapper, comme ici. Bosquet Nord, Parc de Sceaux
Carved sculpture of Hanuman Ji in the granite rock on the way to Sri Ram Temple in Sholay Hill, Ramanagara.
The origin of the Panchmukhi Hanuman can be traced to the greatest epic of our country, the Ramayana. In the battle between Rama and Ravana, Ravana being the vile rakshas gains the help of Mahiravana who is the ruler of the underworld. Mahiravan tricks Rama and Lakshamana with his deceiving appearances and holds them captive in his underworld prison. Hanuman being the faithful devotee he is, undertakes the mission of rescuing them back safely. But he is quite perplexed when he reaches the underworld and realizes that the only way to save them was to kill Mahiravana, Mahiravana being the master of trickery and deceit carefully has his lives split in all 5 directions, 3 of which were in lamps. So hanuman took the form of a Panchamukhi Hanuman, (with five faces). The faces were namely Hanuman, Hayagriva, Garuda, Varaha and Narasimha. And they successfully vanquished the enemy and saved Rama and Lakshmana.
