Got a chance to read and recite the complete Sunderkand with my friends and colleagues from the office in a social gathering, and it was eclectic. Something I will try and do at least once a year.

As I finish reading Sundar Kand (Hindi translation) by Goswami Tulsidas, my head is bowed in reverence to Lord Ram, Goddess Sita and their greatest servitor of all - Lord Hanuman. Despite my ill health, an unusual calmness & joy envelopes me. I find myself humming the couplets from this beautiful poem (which finds place in the fifth canto of the classical epic story of the Ramayana known as Sri Ram Charit Manas by Tulsidas).

The inquisitiveness to know Lord Hanuman and worship Him is a legacy left behind by my mother, who was an ardent devotee of Lord Hanuman. It was from her that I had received my first copy of Sundar Kand written in Awadhi language (primarily spoken in the Awadh region of present-day Uttar Pradesh, India).

Having read Sundar Kand a few times before, and hearing of it’s acclaimed spiritual significance, a strong desire to know and understand it’s meaning & true essence lead me to order this Hindi translation.

The Sundar Kand symbolizes the dawn of hope after a dark night of hopelessness and despair, because it is in this Canto that Sita is traced by Hanuman after Lord Ram had lost all hopes of finding her, thus instilling hope in the heart of both Lord Ram and Goddess Sita that they would now be united once again. It is also here that Vibhishan, the brother of Ravana, too finds a way to his freedom and redemption from the evil of being called a demon by the virtue of his birth in this race, because he goes to surrender before Lord Ram and is warmly welcomed by him.

It is often used independently for the purpose of recitation on auspicious occasions during religious functions and festivals as it recounts the glories of Lord Hanuman, the hope of Goddess Sita that she'll soon attain deliverance from her profound miseries, and the redemption of Vibhishan, the brother of the demon king Ravana, who was warmly welcomed by Lord Ram when he came to surrender and seek the Lord's refuge.

Sundar Kand evokes the virtues of auspiciousness, hope and salvation amid an environment of hopelessness, gloom and despair.

Jai Siya Ram, Jai Hanuman.
