Hanuman(A Hindu God) is also considered as the incarnation of Shiva. Hanuman is also known as the son of Vayu Dev (The God of Wind). When Ravana tried to enter the Himalayas (the abode of Shiva) Nandi stopped him and Ravana called Nandi a monkey. Nandi in return cursed Ravana: monkeys would help destroy him. In the process word monkey along with panchaksram "Om Namashivaya" hit Shiva. Shiva, to give respect to his devotee, took the form of a vanara, Hanuman. Hanuman helped Rama in searching of her wife Sita. (From Wikipedia)
