Guest guest Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I want to add a story from the audio cassette "Katha Sri Hanumanjiki" produced by late Gulshan Kumar.Hanuman wanted to know why Ram loved Sita the most.When he found Sita applying Sindur on her fore head he thought that way to gain Ram's love was Sindur.He smeared him self all over with Sindur to please Ram.
