SRI RAMA NAVAMI CELEBRATIONS Sri Rama is seventh (7th) incarnation of Lord Sri Maha Vishnu. He was born on Chaitra Shuddha Navami. Sri Rama is a Kaarana Purusha. His birth has a divine purpose – Loka Kalyaanam (Universal well-being). His life, as described in Raamayana, exemplifies a perfect human being. Sri Rama married Sri Sita Devi with the same divine purpose, Loka Kalyanam. This is signified during the chanting of the mantra during the divine wedding – “Maangalyam Tantunanena Loka Rakshana hethuna” Some parts of India celebrate Chaitra Navaraatri, culminating on Chaitra Shuddha Navami. Kanya Pooja is celebrated on Ashtami day of this Navaraatri to seek blessings from Shakti.
