    Happy Rama Navami

    Thisis the celebration of the birth of Lord Rama, and for the next 9 days therewill be celebrations to mark Ram Navami. Rama is the Perfect Man – I have been taught that he is 1 part human and1 part Deva. Of course being one part Deva, Ram is also 100% Deva andBhagavan at the same moment, which is not a contradiction. Yet, Ram feels close to humanity as well andis part of us. He is the eldest son ofgood King Dasarath of the Solar Dynasty, from the sacrificial fire during aRoyal religious rite there came a glorious angel who gave the sonless Kingsacred nectar or honey. Half of thissacred nectar the good King he gave to his wife the Maharani Kausalya, and soRam revels as half Deva and half Humanity. And a quarter of this magic and divine honey he gave to his wife theRani Kaikeyi of whom was born Prince Bharata as three-quarters Humanity and onequarter Deva, and the remaining fourth part the good Maharaja gave to Sumitrathe Love of the Palace and Rani from which there were two holy Sons, ourbeloved Lakshman the great and loyal Brother of Ram and thus the Brother of AllHumanity and the beautiful one called Satrughna.

    Happy Rama Navami! And how will YOUcelebrate? Rama is very close toHumanity, even though we did not honor his Wife the Mother Sita who due to ourignorance was still suspect and left the World. How stupid we are, yet Ram is ready to live in our heart and is part ofus all.

    It is Ram who lives in the heart of Hanuman. You also have a heart. Let Ramalive in your heart as well! Happy, happyRam Navami 2012! Ram loved and lovesGood Shiva, and I think of Shiva on this day as well! I think of Devi. I hope that my mind will be one mind, onehead, not Ten Heads, not ten different directions, free on this day.

    Namaste Brian,

    Lord Rama's most wondrous lesson to me has always been this;
    though Ravana's every word and action signify to all others nothing
    but the height of greed, arrogance, violence and villainy, after all is
    said and done, Lord Rama looks upon His defeated enemy, and sees
    the great good, the nobility, strength, and courage, that had been
    twisted, buried by Ravana's path, choice by choice. Just as Ravana's
    armor and boons were in reality a prison and poison, only Lord
    Rama could free him, and only in death and defeat could Ravana
    realize the truth of his existence.

    Of course, the whole world celebrates when demons are slain-
    but, just as Mahishasur gives thanks and praises Maa Durga
    at the final moment, so too does Ravana realize the greatness of
    the gift Lord Rama has given...

    To make any other posts in this section of the forum which make this thread drop to second place on this sacred day is sacrilegious.

    Namaste all,

    A lovely rendition of Sri Rama Raksha Stotra: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wZrXQJbqbU

    I heard somewhere that Ram Navami is even more auspicious when it falls on a Sunday, the day of Surya, given that Lord Rama was a descendant of the Sun Dynasty.

    Aum Suryaya Namah
    Jai Sri Ram
    Sanatana Dharma ki Jai!
    Jai Hanuman

    Hari Om

    Believer, hear you. Think others may have something to say throughout night, but for second, this thread will be back to topwhere it belongs.

    Brian, thank you very much for posting this.

    JMD, may I have permission to copy this, that you share?

    Ramakrishna, that is beautiful. Thank you for this offering.
