Thanks bro

Do you know any Hanuman Mantras?

My father in Law was a Brahmin Pundit and our family is devoted to, and under the protection of, Hanuman specifically.

The crazy thing is I had an insane lucid dream where Hanuman appeared to me.

I have never had any other God appear to me.

It was one of the most profound experiences of my life.

He spoke to me and told me "call on my name".

But I need to know what is the best mantra to chant his name!

I am playing the Hanuman Chalisa right now but its too long and complex.

Is it Om Shree Hanumate Namaha?

Thats the one I chanted 108 times today at the altar.

I memorized the hanuman chalisa and tons of other stuff as a kid. Anytime I asked my mom for a new videogame or some shit I would have a choice to either do chores or spend 15 minutes a day working with her to memorize some sort of prayer/chanting series. I specifically recall I had to memorize hanuman chalisa for a gamecube

so I have none memorized verbatim at the moment, but they are probably hidden somewhere in memory. I would say at least 10-20 diff mantras/prayers. I wanted new toys and videogames so I had no choice

but honestly do whatever works for you. I looked up to hanuman as a kid. enjoyed the illustrations and the concept of a jacked monkey. So hanuman chalisa was what worked for me. don't get caught up in the method I would say just pick a method and stick with it. I look up to krishna these days more so I chant hare krishna as I meditate. Also shiva is pretty cool to me. so I chant his name. I am busy with work/school so I just pick the most simple methods and put my interest/importance in making sure to recite it from the "heart" and sincerely/with focus. Sadly I don't have time to learn 40 verse long songs. Nor do I have interest for that kind of prayer. I'm a horrible singer haha
