Rama (राम) is the prince of Ayodhya whom millions honour as the seventh avatar of Vishnu and as Maryada Purushottama, the ideal of right conduct. The Ramayana follows him through fourteen years of forest exile, the search for Sita and the journey home. He is pictured with deep blue skin, a crown, a yellow dhoti and his bow Kodanda, often with Sita, Lakshmana and devoted Hanuman beside him. Many Hindus keep his birthday on Rama Navami and his victory over Ravana at Dussehra.
