Ram Navami
Dates follow the Indian calendar (IST). If you’re outside India, your local temple may observe a day earlier or later for tithi-based festivals.
Ram is not history - he is a possibility. When a human being functions at the peak of dharma, he becomes divine. Today, we don't celebrate a king who lived thousands of years ago; we celebrate the possibility of living a life of absolute integrity.
