Sundar Kand, literally "beautiful episode/book", is the fifth book in the Hindu epic the Ramayana. Considering the tradition of naming a book or chapter of a book after the main character, one can conclude Sundarakanda is about Sundara , the Hunuman who is the center piece of action in Sundarakanda. Sundara Kanda is the only chapter of the Ramayana in which the hero is not Rama, but rather Hanuman. Hanuman's selflessness, strength, and devotion to Rama are emphasized in the text.Sundarakanda is the most widely read part of Ramayana.
