Born as the eldest son of Kausalya and Dasharatha, king of Ayodhya, Rama is referred to within Hinduism as Maryada Purushottama, literally the Perfect Man or Lord of Self-Control or Lord of Virtue. Rama is the husband of Sita, whom Hindus consider to be an avatar of Lakshmi and the embodiment of perfect womanhood.

Rama is the 7th incarnation of the Dashavatara  of Vishnu. The festival falls in the Shukla Paksha on the Navami, ninth day of the Chaitra month of Hindu calendar. Thus it is also known as Chaitra Masa Suklapaksha Navami, and marks the end of nine-day Chaitra-Navratri  celebrations.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><strong>In the epic Ramayana, Dasharatha, the Emperor from Ayodhya, had three wives named Kausalya, Sumitra  and Kaikeyi  in the Treta Yuga, which follows the Satya Yuga and is succeeded by Dwapara Yuga. Their greatest worry was that they had no children, and so they had no heir to the throne in the Ikshvaku Kula or royal lineage of great, pious, wonderful Emperors. Rishi  Vasistha  suggests him to perform Puthra Kamesti Yagna, through which he can have a desired child.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">Among the incarnations of the Supreme Being, that of Rama &amp; Krishna are considered very significant for humanity as it was possible for human beings to relate to him in person. In the Ramavatar (Incarnation of Ram) hsis auspicious qualities were manifest and he set an example to mankind by his adherence to Dharma (Religion). Rama\u2019s matchless prowess as a warrior and his valorus deeds have lent the name \u2018Mahavira Vaibhav\u2019. Kalyan Guna (Welfare to humanity) is the main evident of Lord Rama. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">It was his Kalyan Guna that he condoned the faults in others even when they had caused harm to him. The most important instance was when Ravana stood helpless without arms in the battlefield it would have been very easy to finish him off if the feeling of revenge on the one who had abducted his wife and kept her under captivity had over ridden, his sence of Dharma in warfare. His propriety and his inborn trait of pardoning others faults came to the tore in this critical juncture. The other Quality which was singular in Rama was his easy accessibility to everyone because of his innate affability (Sausilya). He was not only the supreme being incarnate but also the prince-regent, heir to the emperor of the mighty kingdom of Ayodhya.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">Rama endeared himself to one and all by his noble qualities during his exile in the forest, the manner in which Rama addressed Guha, touched by his service by declaring that he was indeed his brother. These are few examples of his holy and piousness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">In Ramayan 16 outstanding qualities of Lord Rama is referred as \u2018Krishna\u2019 he performed the very delecate task of proceedings as an envoy of the Pandava\u2019s to explore whether peace could be ensured. In several ways he saved the Pandava\u2019s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">Rama was a prince and as such he could not be assigned the job of an ambassador, however there was an occasion when he admired such a task by another and he felt sorry. He was denied a similar privilege and so in his next manifestation he himself volunteered to do this service. All Gods incarnation are identical in bringing out his concern for those who place their faith in him. Lord descended on the earth protect the pious and thereby revealed his easy accessibility the destruction of wicked men was also his concern but this could have been accomplished by his will.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><strong>\u2018Thyagraja\u2019 the great writter has emphasised that Sri Rama is unique.
