The birthday of Lord Hanuman is generally on a full moon day that is Chaitra Purnima. According to the best Astrologers of India, the basic way of honoring is through idol worship in most parts of the country.
Devotees in all parts of the nation actively take part in this festival.
Sankatmochan is the son of Kesari and Anjana Devi. He was loved y his parents and was famous for his huge appetite. Legends say that one day he was so hungry that he mistook the sun as fruit and swallowed it. Lord Surya was enraged by the audacity of the child. Further, Lord Indra slapped him for being mischievous. Varun the god of wind and air after seeing this sucked all the air from earth, thus suffocating the world. All the Gods tried convincing God Varun and finally bestowed Hanuman with special powers.
Another interesting tale is when this invincible god went to Lanka to face the evil Ravana. Ravana had captured Goddess Sita the wife of Lord Rama. Hanuman came to rescue Sita but she refused to come along with him. She wanted her husband to come to save her. But before leaving he decided to teach the malicious Ravna a lesson. He purposefully got captured by the security guards. Ravan summoned the guard to set his tail on fire. Lord Hanuman pretended to be in pain and with his tail he set the whole land into a blazing inferno.
