Sri Rama is revered as being the very embodiment of Dharma. Rama exemplified the perfect person (Maryada Purushottam) as king, son, brother, friend, and husband. Rama Avatar is one of the Dasa Avatars of Lord Vishnu in Treta Yuga. Rama’s life serves as an ideal for all mankind, Yuga after Yuga.
The day of incarnation of this Maryada Purushottam is the Chaitra Shukla Paksha Navami and is observed as Sri Rama Navami all over the world. This festival is celebrated for nine days as Vasantha Navarathri starting from Chaitra Suddha Padyami.
Since Sri Rama married Sita Devi on his birthday, both Sri Rama Jananam and Sita Rama Kalyanotsavam have been traditionally celebrated on the same day for the welfare of the universe (Loka Kalyanartham).
