Does Every “Rama” Invocation Awaken Hanuman? Scriptural Confirmation
Ramcharitmanas, by Tulsidas, teaches-जहं जहं राम नाम सुनि लेई, प्रगटि हनुमंत तहं चलि जाई (Wherever the name of Rama is heard or spoken, Hanuman appears).
This is a sacred law: whenever anyone utters Rama’s name-at home, in temple, while walking-the Lord’s most loyal protector arrives, whether consciously called or not.
“Hanuman’s heart, soul and resolve are tied intrinsically to Rama’s name.”
This is not just spiritual poetry but a timeless, experiential fact.
