niṣpramāṇaśarīraḥ san lilaṅghayiṣurarṇavam| bāhubhyāṃ pīḍayāmāsa caraṇābhyāṃ ca parvatam
Having swollen to an immeasurable figure, he pressed on the mountain with his feet and hands in an attempt to cross the ocean.
— M.N. Dutt (1891)
Hanuman's body becomes immeasurable (niṣpramāṇa) — a word that suggests he has transcended normal physical limits. His pressing on the mountain with hands and feet is the preparatory tension before release. The mountain becomes a launching pad, and Hanuman a living projectile of devotion.
