Hanumad vratam

According to our Maadhwa almanac, Hanumad vratam is observed today. Special worship is done to Hanumaanjee, the greatest devotee of Lord Shree Raam, an incarnation of Shree Mahaa Vishnu. 

The following image is from the toys made in a village known as Kondapalli, near Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, India; it shows Hanumaanjee worshipping Lord Shree Raam and His wife Seethaa Devi.


Following is the image of a set of toys made at Kondapalli. It shows the ten main incarnations of Shree Mahaa Vishnu.
