Additional Background:

(Shri Ram Chandra ji ki aarti ka paath karna ek bhakti bhara kary hai jo man ko shuddh aur sakaratmak banata hai. Ram ji ko Maryada Purushottam kehte hain, kyunki unhone apni jeevan mein adarsh niyam aur dharm ka paalan kiya. Ramayan mein unki katha ne yeh bataya ki ek sache rajya aur praja ke liye kaise rajadharma ka paalan hona chahiye. Shri Ram ki aarti karna na keval unki mahima ka gungaan hai, balki humein unke adarshon ko apne jeevan mein apnane ki prerna bhi deta hai)

Shri Ram Aarti ka Mahatva (Importance of Ram Aarti):

1. Bhakti ka Prakatikaran (Expression of Devotion): Shri Ram Aarti bhakton ke liye ek mahatvapurn vidhi hai jismein ve apni bhakti aur shraddha ko prakat karte hain. Jab hum Ram ji ki aarti gaate hain, hum apne mann aur atma ko unke charan mein samarpit karte hain. Yeh ek maarg hai jisse hum apne mann ko shuddh karte hain aur Bhagwan ki kripa ka anubhav karte hain.
2. Adhyatmik Shanti (Spiritual Peace): Shri Ram ji ki aarti gaane se ek atyanth shanti ka anubhav hota hai. Ram ji ko Maryada Purushottam kaha jata hai, jo dharm, satya aur maryada ka paalan karne waale hain. Unki aarti karte waqt in adarshon ki smriti hoti hai, jo humare jeevan mein shanti aur samadhan lata hai.
3. Manavata aur Adarsh (Ideal of Humanity): Ram ji ek adarsh raja, pati, putra aur mitra ke roop mein jane jate hain. Unki aarti ka paath karte waqt hum unke jeevan se prerna lete hain aur manavata, kartavya aur dharm ka paalan karne ka sankalp lete hain. Aarti humare vyavhaar aur jeevan mein unke siddhanton ko pradarshit karne ka ek tareeka hai.
4. Paap Nashak (Destroyer of Sins): Aarti ke dohraan se Ram naam ka uchcharan hota hai, jo paap nashak mana gaya hai. Bhakti aur shraddha ke saath Ram ji ka smaran karne se manushya ke paapon ka nash hota hai aur unhe bhagwan ki kripa ka anubhav hota hai.
5. Sakaratmak Urja (Positive Energy): Ram ji ki aarti gaane se jagah aur vyakti dono mein ek sakaratmak urja ka sanchar hota hai. Bhajan, kirtan aur aarti ke madhyam se mandir, ghar ya kisi bhi sthaan mein ek pavitra aur shuddh vatavaran ka nirmaan hota hai, jisse jeevan mein sukh, shanti aur samriddhi ka anubhav hota hai.
6. Mann Ko Ekagrata (Focus of Mind): Aarti gaane aur sunne se mann ko ekagrata milti hai. Bhakti aur shraddha se jab hum Ram ji ka smaran karte hain, to humare vichar aur bhavnaayein ek jagah kendrit ho jati hain, jo manasik shanti aur sthirata pradan karta hai.
7. Bhagwan ki Kripa ka Ahvaan (Invoking Divine Grace): Ram ji ki aarti karte samay unki stuti aur gungaan kiya jata hai, jo bhagwan ki kripa ko aakarshit karta hai. Aarti karna yeh prarthana hai ki Bhagwan Shri Ram hum par apna aashirwad barsaayein aur humare jeevan mein sukh, samriddhi, aur dharm ka marg pradarshit karein.

Ramayan ka Saar (Summary of the Ramayana):

(Ramayan Bharat ka ek pramukh mahakavya hai, jo Maharishi Valmiki dwara likha gaya tha. Yeh mahakavya Bhagwan Shri Ram ke jeevan aur unki adarsh maryadaon par adharit hai. Ramayan ke madhyam se dharm, kartavya, prem, aur tyag ka mahatva samjhaya gaya hai. Yahan Ramayan ka ek saar prastut hai)

• Shri Ram ka Janm aur Balyaavastha: Ramayan ka prarambh Ayodhya ke raja Dashrath se hota hai, jinke teen raaniyaan – Kaushalya, Kaikeyi, aur Sumitra thi. Kaushalya ke garbh se Bhagwan Vishnu ne Ram roop mein janm liya. Ram ke teen bhai Lakshman, Bharat aur Shatrughna the. Ram ka balyaavastha ek adarsh balak ke roop mein beetta hai, jismein ve gurukul mein vidya prapt karte hain aur apne guru Vishwamitra ki raksha ke liye Tadka, Subahu, aur anya raakshason ka vad karte hain.

• Sita Swayamvar aur Vivah: Vishwamitra ke saath Ram aur Lakshman Mithila jaate hain, jahaan Raja Janak ki putri Sita ka swayamvar ho raha hota hai. Sita swayamvar mein Shiv Dhanush ko uthane ki shart hoti hai. Ram is dhanush ko todkar swayamvar jeet lete hain aur unka Sita ke saath vivah ho jaata hai.

• Vanvaas Aur Kaikeyi Ka Vachan: Ayodhya vapas aane par Raja Dashrath ne Ram ko rajyaabhishek karne ka nishchay kiya. Lekin Kaikeyi, apne do vardan ka prabhav daal kar, Ram ko 14 varsh ke liye vanvaas bhejne aur apne putra Bharat ko raja banane ki maang karti hain. Ram apne pita ke vachanon ka palan karte hain aur apni patni Sita aur bhai Lakshman ke saath vanvaas chale jaate hain.

• Sita Haran: Vanvaas ke dauran, Ram, Sita aur Lakshman Panchvati mein reh rahe hote hain. Lanka ka raakshas raja Ravan, apni behan Shurpanakha ke apmaan ka badla lene ke liye, Sita ka haran kar leta hai. Ve Sita ko Lanka lekar chala jaata hai. Is dauran Lakshman ne Sita ki suraksha ke liye Lakshman Rekha khinchi thi, lekin Ravan ek sadhu ke roop mein aakar unhe chhal se us rekha ke baahar bula leta hai.

• Hanuman Aur Sugreev Ka Saath: Sita ki talaash mein Ram aur Lakshman Kishkindha jaate hain jahaan unki mulaqat Hanuman aur Sugreev se hoti hai. Ram Sugreev ki sahayata karte hain aur uska bhai Bali ko maar kar uska rajya wapas dilate hain. Badle mein Sugreev aur uski vaanar sena Ram ki Sita ko khojne mein madad karte hain.

• Lanka Yuddh: Hanuman Lanka jaakar Sita ka pata lagate hain aur Ram ko sandesh dete hain. Ram apne vaanar aur rakshas sena ke saath Lanka par chadhai karte hain. Ek bhayankar yuddh hota hai, jisme Ravan aur uske samarthak raakshason ka vinaash hota hai. Meghnad aur Kumbhkaran jaise raakshas bhi maar diye jaate hain. Ant mein Ram apne dharmik shaktiyon se Ravan ka samhaar karte hain.

• Ram Ka Ayodhya Vapsi Aur Rajyaabhishek: Ravan ka vinaash karne ke baad, Ram aur Sita ke saath Lakshman Ayodhya wapas aate hain. Ayodhya vapas aakar Ram ka rajyaabhishek hota hai, aur ve ek adarsh raja ke roop mein praja ko nyaay aur sukh pradan karte hain. Unka rajya kaaleen samay Ram Rajya ke roop mein jana jata hai, jisme sabhi log khush, samriddh aur dharm ke maarg par chalne waale hote hain.

Ramayan Ki Shiksha Aur Sandesh:

1. Dharm Aur Kartavya Ka Palan: Ramayan ka mukhya sandesh yeh hai ki har vyakti ko apne kartavya aur dharm ka palan karna chahiye. Bhagwan Ram ne apne jeevan ke har kary mein maryada ka paalan kiya, chahe wo pita ka aadesh maan kar vanvaas jaana ho ya ek patni vrata ka palan karna.
2. Satya Aur Nyaay: Ram ne hamesha satya aur nyaay ka palan kiya, chahe uske liye kitne bhi kathin parikshaon ka samna kyun na karna pada ho. Ravan ke samarthak aur shaktiyon ke hote hue bhi unhone hamesha nyaay ka maarg chuna.
3. Tyag Aur Balidan: Ramayan humein yeh sikhata hai ki tyag aur balidan ke bina jeevan mein saccha sukh nahi milta. Ram ka vanvaas aur unki praja ke prati unka prem iska praman hai.
4. Sangharsh Ka Mahatva: Sita ko chudane ke liye Ram ko apne samarthakon ke saath milkar sangharsh karna pada. Yeh pradarshit karta hai ki jeevan mein kathinaiyon ka samna dhairya, sahanshilta aur sangharsh se hi kiya ja sakta hai.

(Ramayan ke madhyam se, hum Ram Rajya ke adarshon ko samajhte hain, jo ek aadarsh samaj aur jeevan ka marg pradarshit karta hai)
