Story of birth of Lord Rama:
According to the epic Ramayana, King Dasaratha of Ayodhya had three wives but for a long time King Dasaratha did not get the happiness of children from any wife. In order to have a son, King Dasharatha was advised by the sage Vashistha to have a son Kamaishti Yajna. After the completion of the yagna, Maharishi gave one bowl each of Dasharatha’s wives to eat kheer. The three queens became pregnant only a few months after eating kheer. Exactly 9 months later King Dasharatha’s eldest queen Kaushalya gave birth to Rama, the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu, Kaikayi to Bharata and Sumitra gave birth to twins Lakshmana and Shatrughna.
Shri Ram Katha is heard on this day in many places in the country, and Ramcharit Manas are recited at many places. In many places, the idol of Lord Shri Rama is also cradled in a swing. Fasting on the day of Ramnavami, happiness, prosperity, fame and sin-free society are wished.

Lord Rama is the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He was born to remove the evil that originated in the form of Ravana and to re-establish the religion.
