Lord Hanuman

āñjaneya dvādaśa nāma stotram

(Anjaneya Dwadasha Nama Stotram in English (IAST))

From Parashara Samhita

This powerful stotra consists of twelve sacred names of Lord Hanuman, the supreme devotee of Lord Rama and son of the wind god, Vayu. Sourced from the Parashara Samhita, these verses delineate his heroic deeds, including his leap across the ocean and his role in restoring Lakshmana to life. Chanting these twelve names with devotion is believed to invoke the immense strength, intellect, and protection of Hanuman. Regular recitation serves to eliminate obstacles, alleviate distress, and instill fearlessness, bestowing the practitioner with physical vitality and spiritual success in all endeavors.
