Teachings from the Life of Lord Hanuman: A Guide for Health-care Workers during COVID-19
Abstract
Unprecedented circumstances necessitate extraordinary measures. Professionals in health care have been the frontline fighters against COVID-19. They have worked tirelessly, putting their own and family members’ lives at risk. We would like to share our personal experience with using lessons from Lord Hanuman’s life and how they can be applied during the COVID-19 era. The easy connection between a person’s mental health and the almighty, combined with a deep faith in mythology, appears to make it an easy way to boost fighters’ morale.
