Hari OM!
We invite you and your family to come and participate in the Ramanavami celebration at Chinmaya Mission Portland with Brni. Shubhani Chaitanya!
About Ramanavami:
Humans live in communities to support and protect one another. The saying धर्मो रक्षति रक्षितः — “Dharma protects those who protect it” — reminds us that life is upheld by righteousness. Lord Rama embodies this principle, his bow and arrow symbolizing the defense of virtue and justice.
True power belongs to the selfless. Lakshmana shows this, dedicating himself entirely to Rama, giving up personal comforts for duty and devotion. Protection preserves peace, and Sita represents this peace and the prosperity it brings.
Love unites humans, and when offered to God, it becomes devotion. Hanuman exemplifies this divine love, connecting Sita, Sugreeva, Vibhishana, and Bharata to Rama.
Join us in the celebrations and help rock baby Shree Rama to sleep!
