देव! दूसरो कौन दीनको दयालु। सीलनिधान सुजान-सिरोमनि, सरनागत-प्रिय प्रनत-पालु॥१॥ को समरथ सर्बग्य सकल प्रभु, सिव-सनेह मानस-मरालु। को साहिब किये मीत प्रीतिबस, खग निसिचर कपि भील-भालु॥२॥ नाथ, हाथ माया-प्रपंच सब, जीव-दोष-गुन-करम-कालु। तुलसीदास भलो पोच रावरो, नेकु निरखि कीजिये निहालु॥३॥

Coronation of Lord Rama

The Coronation of Lord Rama, known as the Ram Rajyabhishek, represents the culmination of the epic Ramayana. After his victory over the demon king Ravana and his return to Ayodhya, Rama is rightfully crowned as the king. In this luminous depiction, we witness the divine couple, Rama and Sita, seated upon the golden throne, surrounded by the faithful Hanuman and the devoted brothers of Rama. This artwork is not merely a composition of figures: it is a spiritual testament to the ideal of Ram Rajya, a kingdom defined by righteousness, justice, and prosperity. It captures a moment of profound harmony where the heavens and the earth converge to celebrate the restoration of Dharma.
