Lk29. Boons Granted To Hanuman

LAVA KUSA (UTTARAKANDA) Brahma rushed to the spot Where the child was kept. By his very touch, the child Got back his life and cried. The happy wind-god, Started blowing the wind, And the world survived, Because he was so kind. All the Devas blessed The extraordinary child And each one gave a boon Thereafter, one by one. Indra said, "He'll not Be hit by my thunderbolt, And his name is Hanuman, The great, from now on." Sun-god said, "He'll shine Like the brilliance of mine, And will learn all the Sastras More than anybody else." "His death will not occur, " Varuna said, "Either in water Or by any other means, Even for millions of years." "Free from death or ailment, You'll be from this moment." Yama said, "I grant this boon, Oh you, the wind-god's son." Kubera said, "Tired he'll not Be it any war, or conflict. And the death he'll not face Even if hit by my mace." Lord Sankara said, "He'll be Immune from death, let it be At my hands or any weapon, I grant the child this boon." Viswakarma said, "Long-lived He shall be, as he can't be killed By any celestial weapons, Or my deadly weapons.' Brahma said, "He'll live Long years to survive Any kind of weapons Or severe punishments." "He'll be terror to his foes, Will encourage his friends, Will prove always invincible, And change his form at his will." "He'll go wherever he pleases, At the speed of his choice, He shall turn out glorious, And go anywhere as he wishes." As he grew up, Hanuman Day after day, went on Creating troubles to ascetics By breaking sacred things. They gave him a curse, "As you're harassing us, You'll not be conscious Of your acquired powers." "When anyone, at any time, Reminds you of your fame Back your strength you'll get Until then, you've to wait." After receiving this curse, Hanuman became very pious And he's still worshipped As powerful, but kind god.
