New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| When in doubt or anxious about traveling to certain places, prayers can be made to Lord Hanuman, Hinduism's beloved monkey god. He traveled great distances swiftly and fearlessly to rescue the goddess Sita from her captor, the King of Lanka, and deliver her back to her husband Lord Rama. Pictures or idols of Lord Hanuman are available from Internet stores by mail order if they can't be found locally. Before traveling, offer bananas, incense, milk, fresh water, honey, yogurt, unsalted nuts, and a candle to Hanuman. Speak your wish and ask for protection, safety, and a smooth journey to the destination and a smooth return home. Recite his mantra 108 times on Tuesdays and Saturdays. During free time while away from home, continue to chant the mantra "Om Sri Hanumate Namaha." This mantra should also be recited under the breath when feeling insecure or frightened while outdoors or when entering eerie places.
