He is often cited as the classic example of total devotion. At the time of Lord Rama’s coronation at Ayodhya Hanuman asked Rama for a unique boon. He asked for eternal live earth so that he can serve mankind whenever they need Lord Rama’s help in their lives. Hence He is called Sankata Mochan or the one who helps in times of peril.Apart from that He is also worshiped for health, removal of fear and especially as an antidote for all Saturn related troubles.
