Hanuman's Devotion to Rama

The conversation drifted to Hanuman, whose picture hung on the wall in the Master's( Sri Ramakrishna's ) room.

Sri Ramakrishna said: "Just imagine Hanuman's state of mind. He didn't care for money, honor, creature comforts, or anything else. He longed only for God. When he was running away with the heavenly weapon that had been secreted in the crystal pillar, Mandodari began to tempt him with various fruits so that he might come down and drop the weapon. But he could not be tricked so easily.
