History of the Mantra

The worship of Lord Rama has deep roots in Hindu mythology, particularly as depicted in the Ramayana, one of the most revered epics of Indian literature.
Lord Rama, the seventh incarnation (avatar) of the god Vishnu, is revered as the perfect embodiment of dharma (righteousness) and virtue.
He is called Purushottama, meaning the Supreme Being or the best of all men — a title that reflects his divine attributes and ideal conduct.
The concept of Purushottama goes beyond physical or worldly prowess; it signifies a perfect person who transcends ego, materialism, and illusion, embodying an unwavering commitment to truth, justice, and dharma.
Rama’s adherence to his principles, even at great personal cost, makes him the epitome of righteousness and virtue.
A key mythological story encapsulating Rama’s virtues is his exile to the forest.
When his father, King Dasharatha, was bound by his promise to his wife Kaikeyi, Rama without hesitation leaves his kingdom and goes to the forest for 14 years.
This sacrifice for the sake of dharma is a defining moment in his life, showcasing his ultimate loyalty to duty, honor, and truth.
