In Hindu mythology, Rama is one of the most revered figures, known as the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu, the Preserver in the Hindu trinity. His life and exploits are chronicled in the epic Ramayana, written by the sage Valmiki.
Rama embodies righteousness, duty, and ideal kingship, making him a timeless symbol of virtue and morality.
His bow and arrow indicates his readiness to destroy evil. He is also called Shri Rama.
According to Hindu belief, Lord Vishnu incarnates on Earth whenever evil threatens to overpower righteousness. Rama's birth is celebrated on the auspicious occasion of Rama Navami, marking the ninth day of Chaitra month in the Hindu calendar. Born as the eldest son of King Dasharatha and Queen Kaushalya of Ayodhya, Rama's birth was a divine intervention to annihilate the demon king Ravana and restore order to the universe.
Rama's upbringing was marked by his adherence to dharma (righteousness) and respect for his parents and elders. His education in warfare, scriptures, and statecraft under the tutelage of sages and gurus prepared him for his future role as a ruler. Rama's unwavering dedication to truth and righteousness earned him the admiration of both humans and celestial beings.
Rama, the seventh avatar of Vishnu, epitomizes the ideals of righteousness, duty, and virtue. His life and exploits, chronicled in the epic Ramayana, serve as a timeless source of inspiration and guidance for people of all ages.
Rama's unwavering commitment to dharma and his triumph over evil continue to resonate with millions, reaffirming the eternal truth that goodness will always prevail over darkness.
The Rama has perfect balance and proportions. The casting is beautiful as you can see in the fine details of the bow. Each detail is rendered perfectly. The distinctive azurite and malachite patina of the piece is also particularly delightful.
The sculpture provides the perfect traditional in appearance Rama to bring serenity and timeless style to your home, office or sacred space.
