On December 25th we celebrated Hanuman Jayanti at our ashram in Chennai, where the presiding deity is of Sri Panchamukha Hanuman. From morning till evening thousands of devotees visited for darshana of Lord Hanuman. Bhajans were sung by devotees, and prasadam was distributed to all of the guests throughout the day.
In North India Hanuman Jayanti falls in April, but according to the Tamil calendar it falls in the months of December and January.
In the morning maha abhishekam was conducted for the utsava vigraha with milk, honey, ghee, curds, coconut water, sugar water, turmeric, kusha root, and other auspicious ingredients, and in the afternoon yaagam was performed to please Lord Hanuman. In the evening the utsava deity was taken out in procession throughout the neighbhorhood for rathotsavam, accompanied by hari nama sankirtanam.
Below you can find some photos of the celebrations.

Wonderful that Sri Hanuman Jayanti is celebrated on two days!
In the present time , younger generation are drifting away with the influence of media, Movies , gadgets , The parents and school education are not molding the children with human values resulting in cheating, corruption and illicit relations .
Spiritual institutions like Bhakti Vedanta and seminars on Spirituality will only protect the society.
Very fine
Hindus throughout need to unify and realise the greatness of Sanata Dharma. By staying focused and United Hindus can make Bharat truly great again. This will also ensure the Hindu hatred and those who propagate Hindu Hatred are given the rightful treatment they deserve. Unite Hindus before it’s too late. We need a Hindu renaissance.
