Ram Navmi

Ram Navmi


Hello Everyone!!!

Another festival is in the queue for celebration over here in India : Ram Navmi

It is celebration of birth of Lord Rama. This festival is celebration during spring. Lord Ram and his birth is very important to the Vaishnavism tradition of Hinduism.

Ram Navmi is observed during the Gujarati month called Chaitra. It is celebrated during chaitri navratri. The ninth day of bright half is celebrated as Ram Navmi. According to english calendar it is during March or April every year.

Lord Rama is believed to be the 7th avatar of Lord Vishnu.

Ram Navmi is not a major festival so no national holiday observed during this day.

On this day, people perform various rituals based on their beliefs. Some go to Temple for prays while some perform rituals at home. There are community get together. People offer Pooja and aarti on this day.

This festival is mostly observed in the North Indian states like Uttar Padesh, Bihar and even in Nepal.

Rathayatras, the Chariot procession is also taken out on this day at some places.

One can learn so many things from the life of Lord Rama. The art of performing ones duties as an obedient son, respectful brother, ideal husband and humble leader is all what he taught us.

Not to forget Lord Rama is at center on the religious book Ramayan. There so much to learn from this book. It is suggested that everyone should read Ramayan once in their life time.

Happy Ram Namvi!!!

Gudi Padwa : Maharashtrian Festival

Gudi Padwa : Maharashtrian Festival



Gudi Padwa is one of the most celebrated festival in Maharashtra.
 







It is celebrated as the beginning of the traditional Hindu year and the festival day is the first day of the Chaitra month of the Hindu calendar.









The Marathi name for the festival is ‘Chaitra Shukla Pratipata’. Festival is celebrated to welcome the Hindu New Year.

In general, major Vedic festivals and cultural events mark the welcome ceremony of the March month as it is the spring which is closely associated with agriculture. 





Considering as the significant traditional festival, Gudi Padwa is known by various names across the country such as Gudi Padva in Mrathi, Ugadi in Telugu and Yugadi in Kannada.









Just like there are reasons behind the occurrence of natural events, every cultural festival in India has a reason behind its celebration. 

The entire celebration of Gudi Padwa revolves around three major reasons:
  • It is believed that Lord Brahma created the cosmic universe on this day. When the worship of Lord Brahma is complete, the Gudi is hoisted and Lord Vishny is invoked to shower his blessings upon the worshipper and his family.

  • LordRama, Hanuman- the incarnation of Lord Vishnu returned to Ayodhya after slaying the demon king Ravana and rescuing Sita. If we take a look at our history, Maharashtrian people observed this as a day of victory by their supreme and well loved ruler Shivaji Maharaj. The victory flag is hoisted to honour the courage and victory of this great ruler and the Gudi is decorated with the first bloom of fresh mango leaves. A silk cloth of yellow colour is draped across the Gudi and adorned with red flowers. The yellow and red colours are believed to be auspicious and symbols of fertility and well being. The area is also decorated around the Gudi. Special delicacies and sweet dishes are also prepared on this occasion.

  • Gudi Padwa marks another historical event, the victory of the Sakas over the Huns. But the most important significance of the Gudi Padwa is the creation of the universe by Lord Brahma. This has been mentioned in the Brahma Purana too, where the Satyayug commenced from this very day after the creation of the universe. The day is also considered auspicious because the divine consciousness which emanates during the early sunrise, if absorbed, lasts longer.
