The Sunderkand is unique within the \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"241\"\u003eRamcharitmanas\u003c\/i\u003e because it shifts the narrative focus away from the main protagonist, Lord Rama, to celebrate the heroic exploits, unmatched wisdom, and absolute devotion of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"414\"\u003eLord Hanuman\u003c\/b\u003e.
