| Sri Rama was Lord Vishnu's seventh avatar (incarnation) on earth. Sri Rama was portrayed as being the ideal man, and his wife Sita, was the ideal woman. Sri Rama Navami is the birth of Sri Rama on this earth. This festival usually occurs between March or April in the Christian calendar. Since Sri Rama spent most of his life in the forest, there is no elaborate celebration. Sweets made are very simple. One food that is made is called Paanagam, which is a sweet drink. |
