stabilises into the Brahm, in other words becomes commited that he is Brahm – he
becomes the knower of Brahm and himself becomes Brahm.
By this sruti (verse) it becomes clear Hanumaan‘s eligibility of not just any ordinary
being but a being even greater than human – a divine being. So call him divine or Vaanar
human but not from the animal kingdom‘s monkey. This becomes easily
comprehensible.
Humans are in four types.(1) Nar (2) Lok (3) Jan (4) Maanav. Humans in the Nar
category are described in theGitaa by Bhagwaan:
Tulya Nindaa stutir-mouni santush-tou yen ken-chit |
Ani-ket-ha sthir matir-bhaktim-aana-me priyo nar-ha ||
The one who considers praise and criticism wit equanimity, and is also deep thinking, and
remains content with whatever available for body upkeep, and remains unattached
without affection to location of his stay, the stable intellectual is very pleasing to me. And
also:
Sve sdhe karmanya-bhirata-ha sam-siddhi labhate nar-ha ( Gita 18-45)
Sraddha-yaa parayaa tapatam tapasta-tri-vidham narei-ha |
a-falaa-kaam-kshi-bhir-yuktei-ha saatvikam pari-chaksha-te ||
The one engaged in his normal duties human (nar) achieves the bhagvat achievement of
utmost fulfilment (siddhi). Similarly the three penanaces known as Saatvik penances -
the being who achieves these is motiveless, free of desires of fruits of actions, and totally
faithful. All these qualities are present in Hanumaan. In other words, the qualities of Nar
are embedded in Warrior Hanumaan. And also to aid bhagvaan Vishnu‘s incarnation the
divine beings were born ino the Nar type as human beings.(This is proclaimed in the
Raamaayan).So it is established that Hanumaan and Sugriv etc. were human beings and
not animals in the form of monkeys..
And now the description of qualities of the class of beings:
Yagna-artha-arta-karmano-anyatra loko-ayam karma-bandhana-ha (A.3.9)
Those actions performed in the course of yagna, apart from those all other actions are
binding the beings. In other words Bhagwaan has described beingsengrossed in worldy
actions by the word ―Lok‖. They perfprm all good actions – but for consumption and
achieving end goals for themselves – to achieve fruits of those actions.
Now follows description of ―Jan‖:
Pra-vruttim cha ni-vruttim cha jan na vidur-asuraa-ha (A. 16.7)
Pretaan-bhoot-ganaan-scha-anye yajante taamsaa janaa-haa (A.17.4)
A-shhashtra-vihitam ghoram tapa-yante ye tapo janaa-haa (A.17.5)
