  4. RAVANA IS A PARAM BHAKT OF SHIVJI , AND PEOPLE LIKE MATA PARWATI TOO, DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT SHIVJI IS PARAM BHAKT OF BHAGWAAN SHRI RAM..... MATA PARWATI HAD TO BEAR THE CONSEQUENCES OF NOT UNDERSTANDING THIS.... THIS IS THE KNOWLEDGE WHICH ONLY MATA PARWATI WAS SUPPOSED TO GAIN , BUT THE ' BAD EGG OF THE BIRD KAGH' GAINED CONSCIOUSNESS AND A BODY AFTER LISTENING , WHICH SHIVJI HAD TO DESTROY/ KILL.......BUT THE SOUL WAS ALREADY ENLIGHTENED , ASKED SHIVJI TO RETAIN THE BODY IN WHICH , HAD GAINED ENLIGHTMENT......KAGH-BHUSHUNDJI-----WHILE RAVAN GAINED SHIVJI'S BHAKTI (BLESSINGS) IN 'PLEASING/PRAYING' TO THE TEN FORMS OF SHIVJI AND OFFERING HIS HEAD TO EACH ONE OF THEM AS A SACRIFICE, HE DID NOT GET THE BLESSING OF THE ELEVENTH FORM , OF HANUMANJI , WHOM HE DID NOT BELIEVE IN AND THOUGHT MERELY AS A 'MONKEY'.............( ONLY ONE PURUSH UTOM IN THIS ENTIRE UNIVERSE-BHAGWAAN SHRI RAM/ KRISHNA).....WHILE ' NATRAAJ' IS A FORM SHIVJI TOOK FOR THE EVENT OF ' MAHA RAAS LEELA' AND IS ALSO KNOWN AS A 'GOPI', THE MOST FAMOUS OF HIS TEMPLES IS ONE OF THEM CALLED ' GOPESHWAR NATH MANDIR', THERE ARE OTHER FORMS OF SHIVJI , LIKE THIS.......IT IS VERY HARD TO FIND PEOPLE GIVING CORRECT FORMS OF SHIVJI.....IN THE EVENT OF ' NAVRATRI' SOME OTHER FORMS ARE TALKED ABOUT........ALL THE KNOWLEDGE (GYAN) HAS TO BE EXPLAINED THROUGH SCIENCE (VIGYAN) , EVEN IF WE CANNOT PROVE IT TODAY , IT WILL BE PROVEN SOMEDAY AS WE ADVANCE OUR KNOWLEDGE.....CHANGE IS A VITAL PART IN NATURE AND 'MICROBES' HAVE HELPED A LOT, AND THIS IS SHIVJI'S ONE OF THE FORMS........ AS KNOWLEDGE FROM THE VED SHASTRAS STATE THAT AS BRAHMA WAS CREATING SHIVJI WAS DESTROYING/ EATING EVERYTHING ....... SO THE DEVTAUS HAD TO PRAY TO SHIVJI , NOT TO DO THIS , AND HELP THEM SUSTAIN NATURE.....THIS IS 'RUDRA' RUP............THERE ARE OTHERS LIKE THIS ...........THANK YOU VERY MUCH .........JAI SHREE RADHE KRISHNA.....

  8. SHRI HANUMAAN IS BEYOND COMPREHENSION OF MANY. HE IS THE FAVORITE OF SHRI VISHNU AND SHRI SHIVA AS WELL. LIKEWISE HE IS CLOSE TO SHRI SURYA AS WELL AS SHANIDEV AND THE SHAIVITES AND VAISHNAVITES, TOO, WHO ARE INIMICAL TO EACH OTHER, BY GENERAL BELIEF. SUCH IS THE CHARM OF HANUMAAN JI ! THIS IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE HE HAD THE BOON OF MATA SEETA, "ASHTA SIDDHI NAU NIDHI KE
    DAATA", BANKING ON WHICH HE IS CAPABLE OF DOING ANY IMPOSSIBLE TASK.

    THERE ARE MANY INSTANCES IN THE RAMAYANA WITNESSING THE INTELLIGENCE AND WISDOM OF HANUMAAN JI. THE PROWESS, THE DETERMINATION, THE UNPARALLELED DEVOTION SHOWN BY HIM IS NOT POSSIBLE ON THE PART OF THE ORDINARY. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER POINTS TO PROVE THAT SHRI HANUMAAN IS EMBODIMENT OF BOTH SHRIHARI AND SHRI HARA IN A SINGLE FORM, THE EKAADASHA RUDRA AVATAAR !!

    19. SHRI SAPTMUKHI HANUMAN KAVACH
    20. VADVANAL STOTRAM BY VIBHISHANJI
    21. SHRI HANUMAN NATAK
    22. SHABAR MANTRAS
    23. RAMANANDI SECT
    24. TANTRAS
    25. MAHABHAGWAT PURAN ( IT IS DIFFERENT FROM BHAGWAT PURAN)
    26. EKADASHMUKHI HANUMAN KAVACH
    27. DEVI BHAGWATAM
    and many more ....They have all called that BHAGWAN SHRI MAHESHWARAJI was born in the Form of BHAGWAN SHRI HANUMANJI to assist BHAGWAN SHRI RAMJI in his war against ravan
    I have seen many so called modern scholars who call HANUMANJI a mere Ansha/RUDRA/ANSHAVTAR …….I totally disagree with them …bcoz this ansha /anshavtar their logic is totally bogus ….
    .I have seen many so called intellectual who compare HANUMANJI with ashwathama
    Just Think that BHAGWAN SHRI HANUMANJI has ability to ASSUME PANCHMUKHI , SAPTAMUKHI FORM
    AND in his EKADASHMUKHI FORM …HANUMANJI assumed the powers of
    1.BHAGWAN SHRI RAMJI
    2.BHAGWAN SHRI MAHADEV SHIVJI
    3.BHAGWAN SHRI NARSIMHAJI
    4.BHAGWAN SHRI VARAHJI
    5.BHAGWAN SHRI HAYGREEVJI
    6.BHAGWAN SHRI GANESHJI
    7.BHAGWAN SHRI BHAIRAVJI
    8.BHAGWAN SHRI PARSHURAMJI
    9BHAGWAN SHRI KUBERJI
    10.BHAGWAN SHRI GARUDJI
    11. AND BHAGWAN SHRI HANUMANJI
    so do you really think that any normal ansha/RUDRA/ andhavtar of BHAGWAN SHIVJI can assume all powers of THESE GODS
    In YAJURVED'S TARASARA UPANISHAD and all the scriptures that I have mentioned INCLUDING SHRI SHIV MAHAPURAAN say that BHAGWAN MAHADEV SHIVJI himself came In the womb of MATA ANJANI to assist BHAGWAN SHRI RAMJI…
    They did not use any word like ansha/RUDRA/anshavtar like today's so called modern scholars
    SHRIMAT HANUMAT CHARITAM by MAHARISHI PARASAR says that BHAGWAN SHRI HANUMANJI took the Form OF BHAGWAN SHRI MAHADEVJI to kill a demon named raktorma ………………..so do you really think that any normal ansha/RUDRA /anshavtar of BHAGWAN SHRI MAHADEV SHIVJI can assume form OF MAHESHWARA himself ?
    So conclusion is that BHAGWAN SHRI HANUMANJI is BHAGWAN DEV ADIDEV SHRI MAHADEVJI himself who came to this mortal world to assist BHAGWAN SHRI RAMJI
