Statue of Hanuman and the umbrella

Hanuman is the symbol of strength and energy.
Hanuman is worshipped for his unyielding devotion to Rama and is remembered for his selfless dedication to the God.
Hanuman is considered the living embodiment of the Karma Yogi (one whose meditation and devotion are demonstrated through hard work or service)

The umbrella over the statue from the God of Hanuman is the meaning of "to guard", as these ceremonial umbrellas symbolise protection. Its also said to symbolise a mountain, whose protective shade covers the land and people.
The mountain of course being the pinnacle of spirituality as the abode of the gods.

    Ist Hanuman nicht auch der Affengott ?
    Tolles Foto, nicht zuletzt durch den roten Schirm.
    Und eine lehrreiche Erklärung.

      Hanuman der Gott der Affen ist in der hinduistischen Mythologie die Repräsentanz der bedingungslosen Liebe und Hingabe und gegen alle Gefühle wie Trennung, Verlust, Schmerz, Ohnmacht und Unvollständigkeit. So die Erklärung meines balinesischen Freundes Anom Agung und unserer Nichte Rita, die meine Seiten mitgestalten. Grüße aus Bali Wolfgang
