hanumatsahasranāmastotram (sudarśanasaṃhitā)

A thousand names of Hanuman from the Sudarshana Samhita, given there in a conversation between Vasishtha and the Valakhilyas, and its colophon says what it is really for — the names come preceded by the Vajra armour, and the two are meant to be used together. The apparatus at the front is built entirely out of his own epithets: Rama for the seer, Anjaneya for the power, Vatatmaja for the seed, the monkey-king for the pin, the adamant-bodied for the armour, the tusk-weaponed for the weapon. Its meditation verse is domestic rather than martial — feet the colour of the moon, a loincloth and a munja girdle, the sacred thread, a necklace and earrings, a long tuft, the hands folded, a face at peace. Its closing warning is rarer than its promises: for anyone who makes a mockery of this, every one of the stated fruits turns into its opposite.
