Om Anjaneyaya Vidmahe
Vayuputraya Dheemahi,
Tanno Hanuman Prachodayat
Men are chanting 'Hanuman Gayathri Mantra' to strengthen their courage and knowledge. But, why women are restricted to worship Hanumanji?
Lord Hanuman is considered to be a revered deity in Hindu religion and the good who gets pleased very soon. Hanuman Ji is blessed with being a long-lived (Chiranjeevi) and it is believed that in Kalyug, Hanuman Ji is still alive.
In the scriptures, the right to worship any Goddess is done in a similar way to both men and women, but Hanuman is such a god whom women can not worship him.
Here are the reasons:
- Hanuman Ji considers all women as mothers. He doesn't want any female bowing in front of him. All women, including mother Sita, are considered mother.
- Women can not worship Hanuman ji for a long time, they are said to be kingships behind this.
- Women can not read the Bajrang Baan. They can not give Arghya to Hanuman ji.
- Women can do aachaman. Hanumanji can not take a Panchamrit bath at any time during or before worship.
- Women are not allowed to go in temple of Hanumanji. They are restricted to worship the Hanumanji.
