Panchamukhi Hanuman's avatar is believed to be one of the gigantic (Virat) forms of Lord Hanuman. The majestic faces of Lord Anjaneya face different directions and each of the face belongs to five different gods. In Ramayana, Ahiravana, the chief of Patala (netherworld) disguised as Vibhishana and kidnapped Lord Rama and Lakshman. Lord Hanuman learned that the soul of this demon rested in the five candles, so to extinguish those five candles, Hauman took Panchmukhi's roop with each face in a different direction and together all the faces blew those candles, hence destroying Ahiravana and saving Lord Rama and Lakshman from his custody.
