What is pervasive in every particle is Ram, feeling the light of Ram is the opportunity of 'Ram Navami'!

 

What is pervasive in every particle is Ram. Ram is the light of our lives. Often, we try to find the light within us. Just know that you are the light. You are not just a puppet of blood, flesh, and bone. You are light. When you realize this within yourself, peace dawns in your life.

Ram's entire life was filled with struggles, yet he fulfilled every role in life with truth, compassion, honesty, and dedication. That's why he is called Maryada Purushottam. When you awaken, you first see that life is full of struggles. There is struggle in the world, in relationships, in almost every corner of life. But when you stay more aware, when your intellect develops, you realize that it's all a play. What seemed like a battle before starts feeling like a game later on.

When you stay alert, you cannot imagine anyone as your enemy. When you think someone is your enemy, you start believing it. You trust in it, right? Emotions are like that. They just come and overpower us. At that time, your ability to reason takes a back seat. But as soon as you recognize it, you take a step away from it on your own, and then you remain happy even in the struggle.

From Lord Ram's life, we learn the lesson of lifelong discipline. Discipline comes from three emotions. You stay disciplined even out of love. Although discipline isn't needed in love, discipline continues to exist through love. Fear and greed also create discipline. If someone says that if you're not disciplined, you'll suffer, then due to that greed, you also come into discipline. If someone tells you that if you're not disciplined, you'll fall ill, then due to the fear of illness, you come into discipline. But among these, it's better to stay disciplined out of devotion and love.

Success is another name for Ram. Lord Ram's arrow never missed its target, which is why even today, the word 'Ram Baan' is used for tasks done with full energy towards the goal. There is no room for failure in 'Ram Baan.' The word 'Ram Baan' is also used for medicine whose effect is certain. Everyone wants to be successful. What is success? It's having an unwavering smile on your face that no one can steal, having courage inside you that doesn't diminish even in adverse circumstances; this is the sign of success. Balancing all aspects of life without anger and hatred is real success.

On this occasion of Ram Navami, feel the light of Ram within you. Lord Ram's birth according to the Hindu calendar was on Chaitra Navami. That's why Chaitra Navami is called Ram Navami. On this Ram Navami, free yourself from all worries and live in the present. Stay happy and content and let go of all old complaints. Although Lord Ram never gave any teachings, his ideals and thoughts guide us even today after many ages.
