Hanuman - the monkey God

Monkey God !. Well, Hiduism is very much into the concept of live and let live. And so the inclusion of various animals into the realm of Gods. Hanuman is the mokey god, Eagle is the carrier of God Vishnu, Snake adorns as necklace of God Shiva, the humble mouse becomes the carrier vehichle of the Elephant God Ganesha, Peacock is the carrier of God Muruga ect. Fascinating concept and it works very very well. Well Mythys are myths - just that. One should not try to reason with it.
