Answer 2

Answer:

Sri Rama Navami is the first festival after Ugadi, which celebrates the birthday of Lord Rama. Being the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu, Lord Rama was born as a son to Queen Kausalya and King Dasharatha of Ayodhya. Rama Navami falls on the 9th day of the bright fortnight, Shukla Paksha, of the Chaitra Masam.

The celebration indicates the victory of good over evil and the establishment of Dharma. Chanting of Rama Nama is the way to attain purity, tranquility, insight, and ultimately liberation.

This beautiful stotram, while praises Lord Sri Rama for his great qualities, also teaches the Samskritam grammar by presenting all of the vibhakti variations of the word Rama in order (रामः, रामं, रामेण, रामाय, रामात्, रामस्य, रामे, भो राम). 

रामो राजमणिः सदा विजयते रामं रमेशं भजे  

रामेणाभिहता निशाचरचमू रामाय तस्मै नमः  

रामान्नास्ति परायणं परतरं रामस्य दासोस्म्यहं  

रामे चित्तलयः सदा भवतु मे भो राम मामुद्धर 

[Sri Rama Raksha Stotram]   

Meaning:  I contemplate on Sri Rama, who is the jewel among the kings, who always emerges victorious, and who is the Lord of Sita Devi. I salute Sri Rama  who destroyed the mighty armies of the demons. There is no greater refuge than Sri Rama. I am a humble servant of Sri Rama. Let my mind ever meditate on Rama. O , Sri Rama. Kindly grant me  moksha (salvation).

What to do on Sri Rama Navami?   

This slokam from Sri Ramayanam uttered by Brahmarshi Viswamitra to awaken Lord Sri Rama tells us on how to start the day, which was also chosen to be the first slokam in Sri Venkateswara Suprabhatam.

कौसल्या सुप्रजा राम पूर्वासन्ध्या प्रवर्तते ।  

उत्तिष्ठ नरशार्दूल कर्तव्यं दैवमाह्निकम् ॥ 1.23.2 ॥  

[Sloka 2 from 23rd Sarga in Bala Kanda from Sri Valmiki Ramayanam]

Meaning: O beloved son of Kausalya, O Rama the day dawns. O best among men, awake. Oblations to gods and other sacred rites are required to be performed.

The celebration starts with the Sandhya Vandam (Salutations to Sun God) in the early morning, as the Sun God is the ancestor of Lord Rama. Devotees embellish the temples and puja mandir at home with aromatic flowers. Entryways are adorned with strings of mamidi toranam (mango leaves), eye-catching Rangoli, lively lights, and other decorative material.
