Hanuman Jayanti 2025: 5 Powerful Offerings to Receive Lord Hanuman’s Blessings

As spring breathes new life into the world, devotees across India prepare to celebrate Hanuman Jayanti—a festival that honors the birth of Lord Hanuman, the symbol of strength, unwavering devotion, and protection. In 2025, Hanuman Jayanti falls on Saturday, April 12, marking a day of spiritual energy and divine connection.

On this auspicious day, offering prayers and sacred items to Lord Hanuman is believed to remove obstacles and attract blessings. Among the many rituals observed, these five traditional offerings are considered especially powerful:

1. Jasmine Flowers (Chameli ke Phool)

Jasmine flowers are closely associated with Lord Hanuman. Offering five fresh jasmine flowers, often along with jasmine oil and sindoor, is believed to invite his blessings and shield devotees from negativity.

2. Paan (Betel Leaf)

Betel leaves represent pure devotion. Devotees offer paan to Hanuman, especially during difficult times, to seek relief from troubles and gain his divine support.

3. Imarti (Sweet Offering)

Imarti, a spiral-shaped sweet, is considered one of Hanuman’s favorites. Offering it with love and devotion is thought to bring happiness, prosperity, and divine joy into one’s life.

4. Saffron Rice (Kesar Bhaat)

This fragrant sweet rice made with saffron is a cherished offering. It symbolizes peace and progress, and when presented with faith, it’s believed to remove hurdles and strengthen spiritual growth.

5. Sindoor (Vermilion)

Applying sindoor to Hanuman’s idol is a powerful ritual, symbolizing strength, vitality, and courage. It is performed to seek protection, health, and success in all areas of life.
