Origin & Story

Hanuman Chalisa (chaupai) · Tulsidas · 16th century CE

Near the close of the praises in the Hanuman Chalisa, Goswami Tulsidas affirms the supreme boon of remembering Hanuman: every trouble is cut away and all pain ends for the one who calls him to mind. This verse crystallises Hanuman's identity as Sankat Mochan, the remover of difficulties, a role celebrated throughout the Ramayana where he repeatedly rescues Rama, Lakshmana and the devotees from the gravest dangers.

✦ As told in scripture

Devotees across generations testify that calamities lifted the instant they remembered Hanuman through this verse; the very name 'Sankat Mochan', borne by his most famous temple in Varanasi founded by Tulsidas, rests on the promise of this line that no trouble can withstand the remembrance of the mighty Hanuman.
