About the Mission
Background
People are stressed due to the chaotic environment and
the system that has changed faster than humans can adapt.
The culture therefore has an ever widening gap to bridge.
Stress and disharmony is rampant in all families. As many
people do not have total surrender to God they pray only when
in problems as such times bring reality to the fore and people
are confused and need a crutch. They are vulnerable to the
worldly factors and soon lose faith or find it difficult to
sustain what little faith exists. A basic fact of the matter
is that people who have problems have to totally surrender
to God and such people come to Lord Hanuman's Satsung (prayer
gatherings with a lot of devotional power). Here they experience
miracles as it were, their stress is aligned properly and
they become soft, calm, happy and healthy. A life free of
stress begets peace of mind - a critical component in today's
materialistic world. This leads to a life of truth, purity,
and nurturing.
Objective
It is at this junction where HIM comes in with its mandate
for helping the needy, the sick, and the helpless. The umbrella
of service to be provided is education to the poor, medical
assistance to the ailing and sick, trade skills imparted in
the form of human workshops conducted in various locales of
India, and the building of low-cost housing for homeless people.
There are plenty of temples dotted
around India but what the poor and the needy and the homeless
require is tangible means for survival. Anjeneri, the birthplace
of Lord Hanuman is high in illiteracy, sick people, no food
and clothes and non-existant sanitary facilities. The later
is the proper breeding ground for sickness and HIM aims to
make this a model of its objectives. Another HIM volunteer
has been successful in acquiring 15 acres of land from the
panchayat in order to build a polytechnic for technical training.
