How to do 108 times Hanuman Chalisa by Smt Sridevi Eranki
One who recites Sri Hanuman Chalisa 108 times becomes Free from the bondage of life and death and enjoys highest bliss at last.
Many Hanuman temples organize mass Chalisa recitation . Please join such group at least once in a life time .
If you practice reciting daily, it will help completing 108 times even in your home .
It takes 2.5 to 3 hrs to recite Hanuman chalisa for 108 times. I used to do it every Tuesday and Saturday by starting @4:00 am and ending by 7:30am.
2 min. For 1 time.
We watch a movie for 2.5-3 hrs by sitting in one place so why not recite Hanuman chalisa
I started 11 times per day for 41 days and then started to do 108 times every Tuesday and Saturday .
And daily I will recite without fail , It is just that we have to pick up speed without any mistakes and then can attempt.
I used to hold a flower recite the chalisa and put it at Hanuman 's feet . I did not use any pen or marking.
One can count the number of times recited using 108 vakkalu or beatlenuts big size. Offer one at Hanuman's feet after reciting chalisa once . Devotees also use rudraksha or Thulasi garland for counting . Vakkalu means nuts. Some say Hanuman likes them.
How do we ensure your family does not disturb you or phones or door bells ?
When I wake up @3:40 am. Everyone will be sleeping.By the time they wake up and start for school I will be done
Last 21 times usually I start my work in the kitchen by cooking and preparing the lunch / breakfast.
I never counted how many years I did
There are a lot of experiences.
I feel lord Rama is protecting all the time. As we praise Hanuman Lord Rama will take care of us and where ever Rama is , the whole family of his including Hanuman will be present.
At the end offer prasadam.
108 times a week , times 4 weeks , times 12 month is total 5184 times chalisa in just one year , one can imagine if it's 10 yrs it is 50184.
Hope my plan of disturbance free recitation idea helps others too.
Jai Hanuman
Please recite the Doha once , then repeat the Chopai 108 times.
It is Better to inculcate recitation of Hanuman Chalisa in children from very young age.
Regarding next generation learning Hanuman Chalisa, Mrs.Sridevi shares what she did.
"Both my kids recite Hanuman chalisa daily before going to school. I started teaching them a line a day when we start at home and by the time we reach school and we used to recite the previous lines before starting a new line each day.We used to do it in the car. Now they can recite the Chalisa completely , with devotion" .
This way Mrs.Sridevi children have learnt Aditya Hrudayam too, and now they are learning Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam.
Audio recitation of Hanuman Chalisa is also added for those devotees who require pronunciation assistance while reading the chalisa.

Sukshma roop dhari Siyahi dikhava
Vikat roop dhari lank jarava
Bhima roop dhari asur sanghare
Ramachandra ke kaj sanvare
Laye Sanjivan Lakhan Jiyaye
Shri Raghuvir Harashi ur laye
Raghupati Kinhi bahut badai
Tum mam priye Bharat-hi-sam bhai
Sahas badan tumharo yash gaave
Asa-kahi Shripati kanth lagaave
Sankadhik Brahmaadi Muneesa
Narad-Sarad sahit Aheesa
Yam Kuber Digpaal Jahan te
Kavi kovid kahi sake kahan te
Tum upkar Sugreevahin keenha
Ram milaye rajpad deenha
Tumharo mantra Vibheeshan maana
Lankeshwar Bhaye Sub jag jana
Yug sahastra jojan par Bhanu
Leelyo tahi madhur phal janu
Prabhu mudrika meli mukh mahee
Jaladhi langhi gaye achraj nahee
Durgaam kaj jagath ke jete
Sugam anugraha tumhre tete
Ram dwaare tum rakhvare
Hoat na agya binu paisare
Sub sukh lahae tumhari sar na
Tum rakshak kahu ko dar naa
Aapan tej samharo aapai
Teenhon lok hank te kanpai
Bhoot pisaach Nikat nahin aavai
Mahavir jab naam sunavae
Nase rog harae sab peera
Japat nirantar Hanumant beera
Sankat se Hanuman chudavae
Man Karam Vachan dyan jo lavai
Sab par Ram tapasvee raja
Tin ke kaj sakal Tum saja
Aur manorath jo koi lavai
Sohi amit jeevan phal pavai
Charon Yug partap tumhara
Hai persidh jagat ujiyara
Sadhu Sant ke tum Rakhware
Asur nikandan Ram dulhare
Ashta-sidhi nav nidhi ke dhata
As-var deen Janki mata
Ram rasayan tumhare pasa
Sada raho Raghupati ke dasa
Tumhare bhajan Ram ko pavai
Janam-janam ke dukh bisraavai
Anth-kaal Raghuvir pur jayee
Jahan janam Hari-Bakht Kahayee
Aur Devta Chit na dharehi
Hanumanth se hi sarve sukh karehi
Sankat kate-mite sab peera
Jo sumirai Hanumat Balbeera
Jai Jai Jai Hanuman Gosahin
Kripa Karahu Gurudev ki nyahin

Story behind Sri Hanuman Chalisa by Sant Tulisidas
Sant Tulisidas , was called by the Emperor Akbar in his court , after hearing that Tulsidas had Darshan (had seen) of Lord Rama. Akbar doubted on the truth of Shri Ram’s existence and he asked Tulsidas to show him Shri Ram. Tulsidas replied that Shri Ram gives Darshan (vision) to his Bhaktas (devotees) only , but still the Emperor imprisoned him. In the prison Tulsidas wrote Hanuman Chalisa , in the praise of Lord Hanuman, which has 40 verses in Simple Awadhi language.
40 means Chalis i.e. why this poem came to be known as Hanuman Chalisa. After completing Hanuman chalisa a force of monkeys attacked the town of Akbar, the whole force of Akbar could not stop the monkeys from doing mischief in the town ,at last on the advise of wise ministers Akbar released Tulsidas and at a sudden the monkeys stop troubling and left the town.
