It has been told in the Parashar Samhita that Hanuman ji had studied with his guru Suryadev. Suryadev had nine divine disciplines, out of which five disciplines were given to Hanuman ji, but only married men used to get knowledge of four disciplines. Because of this, a crisis arose in front of Suryadev how to teach Hanuman ji the remaining disciplines.
Finding a solution to the problem, Suryadev advised Hanuman ji to marry. After this, Suryadev proposed to his daughter Suvarchala for the marriage of Hanuman ji. Surya Dev told that Suvarchala is a very ascetic and stunning girl, whom only Hanuman ji can tolerate. Only after marriage, Hanuman ji will become eligible for the remaining four divine disciplines. Hanuman ji agreed to the Guru, although he laid the condition that he would remain celibate despite marriage and would only have a spiritual relationship as wife.
After marriage to Suvarchala, she again became absorbed in penance and Hanuman ji gained knowledge of the remaining disciplines from Guru Surya Dev. In this way, marriage took place but also remained the celibate form of Hanuman ji.
