Meaning

This much-loved chaupai of the Hanuman Chalisa reveals Hanuman as the giver of the eight siddhis (mystic powers) and the nine nidhis (divine treasures of prosperity). Tulsidas tells us this very power to bestow such blessings was granted to Hanuman as a boon by Mother Janaki (Sita) herself, pleased by his selfless devotion. The verse is widely chanted for prosperity, success and the fulfilment of worthy desires, since Hanuman holds the authority to grant abundance.

Origin & Story

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

In the Hanuman Chalisa, Goswami Tulsidas recalls the boon Hanuman received from Mother Sita. According to tradition, moved by his boundless devotion and service during the search for her and the rescue from Lanka, Sita (Janaki) blessed Hanuman with the authority to grant the eight siddhis and nine nidhis. This verse celebrates that grace, presenting Hanuman as a bestower of both spiritual perfection and worldly abundance.

As told in scripture

It is told that the eight siddhis and nine nidhis stand ever at Hanuman's command through Sita's boon, yet he, the perfect devotee, keeps none for himself and freely grants them to sincere devotees; many recount their fortunes turning and long-held wishes fulfilled after worshipping Hanuman with this verse.
