Mata Anjana
About Mata Anjana
Mata Anjana is remembered as the loving and devoted mother of Lord Hanuman, and is worshipped as a protective Mother Goddess, especially in parts of Himachal Pradesh. Many families keep her picture or idol at home, next to Hanuman and Lord Rama, and light a lamp to seek her blessings each morning. She is seen as a gentle force—one who faced hardship and transformed it into strength and grace through her prayers and faith. Her story teaches patience, humility, and a mother’s boundless love. In villages and homes, devotees ask Mata Anjana for protection, good health for children, and peace in the family. She is regarded as an ideal of devotion, sacrifice, and endless care, always remembered for the values she brought to her son, who became one of India’s most beloved deities.
Mantra of Mata Anjana
In the silence of the early hours, the family gathers to chant Mata Anjana’s name or recite a simple mantra such as: 'Om Mata Anjana Deviye Namaha.' This mantra, used with faith, is believed to bring protection, both physical and mental strength, and to drive away fear and negativity from the home. Some families also recite verses honoring Hanuman, trusting that by remembering his mother, they honour the origin of his amazing qualities. Prayers are offered in front of her image, the sound of the mantra blending with bell chimes and the fragrance of sandalwood and camphor. Especially on Tuesdays and Saturdays, or before journeys and important events, devotees chant her name with folded hands. Elders teach the younger generation that Mata Anjana’s blessings can calm the mind and give courage, just as she gave Hanuman the inner strength to face all challenges.
