With the grace of the Gurus and the Bhagwan, on August 2nd, 2025, Chinmaya Mission Mumbai Jagadeeshwara Zone in association with Shree Ayyappa Vishnu Temple Powai had a session by Swami Advayananda on Vande Rama Dootam Hanumantam attended by about 180 people at the temple.
We also had our book stall managed by our able team of sevaks/sevikas.
Swamiji was welcomed by the temple committee and senior priest with Purna Kumbha . Then we had the opening prayers and Swamiji’s talk on the topic, closing prayers followed by Ramayan Aarti done by the temple senior priest. Concluded with some bhajans by the devotees and Prasadam for all . The arrangements at the temple were beautifully taken care of by their team and coordinated by our sevak/sevika.
A few excerpts from Swamiji’s talk -
Hanumanji represents strength, courage, grace ,virtue, fearlessness, knowledge, devotion and so much more.
He is the very altar of perfection and we have to model our lives on this .
We should surrender and pray to Hanumanji to remove all our blemishes and he will protect us always and that’s the true wealth. If we go with the feeling that the Lord is our boss, everything will be great .
Keeping hanumanji in heart is keeping Lord Rama. Once you are a Hanuman devotee , you will find your way to Shri Rama.
Hanuman ji is an ardent devotee of Shri Rama and his heart is full of love and devotion for Shri Rama and in turn Lord Rama loves to listen to Hanumanji’s glory from the devotees. Such is their bonding 
Hanumanji’s glory and power is sung across all yugas at all times and He is also the ideal sevak who makes impossible things possible.
O Lord Hanuman, shower us with your grace and blessings always
