“Hanuman exists to destroy the obstacles to our realizing the same oneness he experiences with Ram. Even when difficulties happen in our lives, he never abandons us, but rather gives us the strength to live through them without our hearts being destroyed.”
- Krishna Das from his book, “Flow of Grace”
The version of the Hanuman Chalisa from KD’s Live on Earth album, with the 3 parts listened to together as if it were 1 song (Hanuman Puja, Hanuman Chalisa, and Sita Ram) is one of my all time favorite pieces of music.
