Hanuman birth resulted from Anjana experience in worshipping Lord Shiva. The King of Ayodhya was performing an offering to the gods for a wish to have children. As a result he received a portion of sacred pudding from the gods to be shared by his three wives. But a kite snatched a crumb of the pudding and dropped it while flying across the forest, where Anyana was praying. The wind delivered the falling pudding into Anjana's outstretched hands, who ate it. Hanuman was born to her as a result.

While Rama is searching in the forest for his abducted wife, Sita, he meets Hanuman. They become life time friends, and Hanuman helps him to find his wife.
