Ram Ji

Lord Shri Ram is one of the most sacred and inspiring figures in Hinduism. Shri Ram is regarded as the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu. His life symbolizes truth, righteousness, ideals, sacrifice, and moral conduct. For this reason, he is known as “Maryada Purushottam” — the perfect embodiment of virtue and discipline.

Long ago, King Dasharatha ruled the city of Ayodhya. He was a great and just king, but he had no children. To obtain offspring, he performed the Putrakameshti Yajna. As a result of the sacred ritual, his three queens — Kaushalya, Kaikeyi, and Sumitra — were blessed with four sons. Shri Ram was born to Kaushalya, Bharat to Kaikeyi, and Lakshman and Shatrughna to Sumitra.

All four princes were brilliant, humble, and brave from childhood. Shri Ram was loved by everyone. He was truthful, compassionate, and devoted to righteousness. Lakshman deeply loved his elder brother Ram and always stayed by his side.

One day, Sage Vishwamitra came to Ayodhya and requested King Dasharatha to send Ram and Lakshman with him so they could protect his yajna from demons. Ram and Lakshman accompanied the sage and defeated Tadaka and other evil demons. This brought great joy to all the sages.
