Suvarchala Sahitha Hanuman Hanuman Marriage

Suvarchala Sahitha Hanuman Hanuman Marriage

This article gives us interesting information about the marriage of Lord Hanuman and Suvarchala. Suvarchala is the daughter of Surya Bhagavan. She was born from the luminescence (Varchas) of Surya and the world was unable to bear the luminescence of the Sun. At the same time, Lord Hanuman has accomplished his Vedic studies from his Guru Surya Bhagawan.

Surya requested him for a Guru Dakshina that to marry her daughter Suvarchala. ‘Parasara Samhita’ states the legend of Hanuman’s marriage. Here it is given in brief paragraphs:

“Oh Haunaman! Suvarchala is Ayonija and Surya Varchas Putrika (who born from Varchas of Surya). The world is unable to bear her. Husband is the one who is to bear her, you need to marry her. You are also the Agniputra (Son of Agni). Only you can bear her. This would not disturb your Brahmacharya (celibacy). Along with my daughter, I will give you a boon that you would still be a Brahmachari even after marriage. You are a born Brahmachari and you would continue to be a Prajapatya Brahmachari even marrying my Suvarchala”, said Surya Bhagavan.

He continued, “This marriage is only for Vishwa Kalyanam (welfare of the world). You can continue your eternal celibacy”.

Lord Hanuman convinced with the words of Surya Bhagavan and accepted to offer him Guru Dakshina by marrying Suvarchala. On Jyeshta Shukla Dasami day (10th day in bright half of Jyeshta month), Hanuman married Suvarchala.

The above legend is mentioned in Parashara Samhita.

  4. Sundar says:

    But Hanuman Ji is the Vayu putra (Son of Vayu deva (Air)). However, the above story depicts him as Agni putra.
    Hanumanta just got the boon of “Immunity to fire” from Agni deva.

    • Hema says:

      Yes I have the same question as we all know he was pawanputra & if according to this he is Agni putra then suvarchala becomes his sister so how can he be asked to marry his own sister?

  17. Rakesh Maharaj says:

    Well hanuman has a son makerdwaj and the mother of makerdwaj is suvarchala

    When hanuman saw mata Sita and burnt Lanka and was on his way back to India

    Suvarchala the daughter of surya was swimming in the ocean between Lanka and India

    And due to the length of distance that hanuman leap and due to the fire in Lanka hanuman swami was perspiring and that perspiration fell into the ocean and suvarchala was in the embodiment of an aquatic animal swallow the perspiration and got pregnant with makerdwaj

    And how hanuman came to know how he had a son is when he went to rescue ram and lakshman from ahiravan in patal then he had battle with his son makerdwaj and learning who was one another he told hanuman the secret of how to kill ahiravan that when hanuman took the form as panchmukhi hanuman

    May lord sugar gala sameta hanuman remove our problems and grant peace

  23. Sathya Hebbar says:

    Dear,
    I think its not a true story.As it doesn’t described in any holy grantha. First of all, Hanuman is called as Vayuputra (Son of Vayu). If he is son of surya, u told suvarchala is daughter of surya, then its be like a marriage between brother and a sister ! Isn’t it ?

  24. KAVITHA P says:

    I never knew the story of lord ”Hanuman and he is a agniputra.

  25. KAVITHA P says:

    I LIKE YOU SO MUCH LORD ”HNUMAN

  26. Kalyan says:

    Hanuman Ji is vayuputra but not agniputra,plz correct it….

  27. Kalyanchakravarthy says:

    Hanumanji lord is vayuputra but not Agni Putra,fires son not but he is god of air….plz correct it…

  28. Swathi says:

    He’s pure brahmachari..
    I think this is a wrong information

  29. U R ANANTH says:

    Any proof in any vedas or in any books in this regard pl?

  30. Basufev Misra says:

    Hi blogger
    Don’t just post articles without reading and realising the fact mentioned in it are true or false. This is purely a man made script to bias others in the name of the paradise samhita. When we all know it very well that Hanuman is the so of Pavan Dev how reasoning is established for the marriage stating Hanuman as the son of Agni Dev?

  31. Dinesh Chandra Awasthi says:

  32. Nidhi Parkash says:

    It is wrong information that Hanuman was married.this work seems of those who desire to destroy Hinduism.

  33. M.s.subramanya says:

  35. SABITA says:

    Suvarchala is Suryadeva’s consort. Not daughter. Hanuman is a Brahmachari.
