Calculation according to the Meaning
“Yug Sahastra Yojana Par Bhanu, Leelyo taahi Madhura Phal jaanu”. It does mean that Lord Hanumana travelled the distance of Yuga x Sahastra x Yojana to meet Bhanu (Lord Surya), the sun thinking it to be a sweet fruit. Now, the terms Yuga, Sahasra and Yojana are the words which determine the distance which Hanuman traveled to meet the Sun which is believed to be his Guru.
According to ancient calculations, as mentioned in Hanuman Chalisa,
1 Yuga = 12,000 years
1 Sahastra = 1,000 (Numerical Count)
1 Yojana = 8 Miles
Yuga x Sahastra x Yojana 12,000 x 1,000 x 8 miles 96,000,000 miles
Where 1 mile = 1.6 Kilometers
96,000,000 miles x 1.6 kilometers = 153,600,000 Kilometers to Sun.
