Ramanavami celebrates the birth of Rama or Ramachandra. The festival is celebrated on the ninth day of the bright fortnight of the Hindu month of Chaitra. It was on this day that Vishnu incarnated as Rama through Dasharatha’s wife Kaushalya.
This is an occasion for great rejoicing especially for the Vaishnavas who celebrate it with due solemnity allover the country. The ancient texts lays tress on fasting on this day, and it is believed that anyone who does not will go to the worst hell. It is also said that Rama fulfills the wishes of all those who pray to him on this day.
Ramanavami
brings together people of different castes. In earlier times, it was specified
that all celebrate this festival, perhaps as away to release the social tension
that existed due to the caste system. With the decline of the caste rigidity,
this festival is now celebrated to sing the glory of a great mythical hero and
is a source of divine inspirations.
Ayodhya is birthplace of Lord Rama and Rama Navami celebrations in Ayodhya are remarkable. Devotees come to Ayodhya from far-flung places. After taking holy dip into river Sarayu Devotees visit Rama temple to participate in birthday celebrations.
