Description

The Sundara Kanda shows us the power of the name ‘Rama.’ Hanuman repeats this name, and it is well known that he was invincible. Sundara Kanda talks of the qualities that an Acharya should have. It is sweet for this reason, for to talk of great men is a pleasant task indeed. The entire Ramayana is said to be contained in Sundra Kanda.

With this assurance Hanuman commences his attempts to search Sita. From here our Sundara Kandam begins. From Skandhamana Parvatham – a mountain – Hanuman successfully crosses the Bay of Bengal. Reaches Sri Lanka and there he meets Sita. He identifies himself as Lord Rama’s envoy (Rama Dootha) and hands over his Lord’s Ring as his identity. At the court of Ravana Hanuman was disrespected and ill-treated. The army of Ravana set fire over Hanuman’s tail. Hanuman took revenge by setting fire to the entire city of Sri Lanka. He gets back to Rama and shared the entire story and about his meeting with Sita as well as her eagerness for reunion with Lord Rama.

This is the most blessed Kandam or section in the whole of Ramayana and therefore it gains this unique name ‘Sundara Kandam’. ‘Sundaram’ means beauty. Lord Hanuman’s other name is ‘Sundara’. In Sundara Kandam, Sage Valmiki speaks about the achievements of Hanuman. For Hanuman nothing is impossible. His attitude always reminds us self-confidence, faith and devotion to Rama, fearlessness, and trustworthiness.
