About this listen
Do you ever wonder why all of Lord Hanuman's idols are red or saffron in colour? This is true of all temples around the world. Is there a story behind the application of red/orange coloured sindoor to Lord Hanuman's idols, and does this tradition of applying sindoor to Lord Hanuman have any special significance?
