Thread: The Colors of Hanuman?

  1. The Colors of Hanuman?

    I have seen different colors of Hanuman, a golden form, a red form, and a green. I understand the red is the sindar covered hanuman. The golden I would assume is his natural color. But I find a green hanuman that interests me greatly and wonder what the significance of this color hanuman is. I would be most grateful if someone could help answer my question, I have searched online and have not found the answer I am looking for. Thank you!

    Re: The Colors of Hanuman?

    Hanuman ji is often associated with 'Mangal' or the planet Mars (and also Saturn). This is the reason why he is depicted in the color of red Coral sometimes, even in some temples he gets smeared with sindoor for this reason. Hanuman ji being a monkey, would be of human color. I have also seen Hanuman ji's depiction in Green color. I have thought that maybe he is depicted in this way to denote a 'special' being and to make him stand out from the crowd of other monkeys he is surrounded by. Also Rama is said to be green in color and maybe this is why his best devotee, Shri Hanuman ji is also colored that way!
