Hanuman Link to Surya:
When Hanuman was in his youth and hungry he tried to grab to eat red-colored sun, Mistaking it for a ripe fruit.
It hit Hanuman on his jaw, and he fell to the earth dead with a broken jaw. Hanuman’s father Vayu (air) became upset and withdrew all the air on Earth. The lack of air created immense suffering to all living beings. Lord Shiva intervened and resuscitated Hanuman, which in turn prompted Vayu to return to the living beings.
As the mistake was done by Indra, he grants Hanuman a wish that his body would be as strong as Indra’s Vajra, and that his Vajra can also not harm him.
Vayu granted his ability to fly, wind won’t affect him. Agni granted he won’t be affected by fire. Varuna granted he won’t be harmed by Water. Lord Brahma Granted he can visit any place that he won’t be stopped.
Hence these blessings made Lord Hanuman to be granted with Unique Powers & Strength.
