Happy Rama-Navami to one and all.

Today marks the birth of Rama - the most perfect man (Purushottam) there ever was and will be, whose character resonated with a beautiful symphony of all the virtues, whose face was like grace abound, and whose life was burdened with one after another misfortunes and tragedies, until his very last breath.

Yet despite all these grave incidents; it is still a wonder how he struggled and endured so terribly, and how he upholded all the virtues throughout his life amidst chaotic, melancholic situations everywhere, with a poise unlike any other human.

Which is why still today, not just in India, but in many countries of Asia, and many other places around the world he has became a peerless idol and an inspiration for a multitude of humans from different walks of life.

For many he is the God himself, for many others - an incarnation, for yet many others he was a saintly king and an impartial, benevolent ruler. He was an unmatched warrior as well.

That's why millions and billions, till date bow down in reverence in front of him and his consort - Sita.

Jay Siya Ram.
