Allah is an Arabic word that means God. If you look at Anuman as a fictional version of Hanuman, then it might be of interest to know that the polytheistic background of which Hanuman exists in the Ramayana, Hanuman is the monkey and friend of the hero who opens up his chest and shows that Rama (which in the context of that part of the story meant love) is written all over his insides.

...As I recall from a class I took over 20 years ago. Where I thought the last two thirds of the Ramayana read like a modern day fantasy novel.

This would have made a lot more sense as part of this thread.

My message was supposed to be a reply to that thread. I don't know what happened.

You must have clicked "New topic" instead of "Post Reply." I've done it before. If moderators have thread-merging powers, now would be a good time to show their mojo.
