What the day is
The birth of Rama — the tradition's model not of power but of conduct under impossible constraint. The point of Rama is never what he could do; it is what he would not do.
How to keep Rama Navami
One act for the day
Keep a promise today that is costing you something. That is the entire teaching.
The day, for Surat
The day is chosen by the moment the tradition reads its tithi at, and the times are that day's own, computed for this city. A festival-specific puja window is not printed: those rules differ by tradition and await a scholar's review.
