Ram Navami 2026: Panjiri or Kheer Puri? Discover Lord Ram's Favorite Offerings

• Ram Navami offerings are a blend of faith and tradition, with purity and sanctity being paramount for Lord Shri Ram, an incarnation of Vishnu.
• Dhaniya Panjiri, made from ground dry coriander, ghee, sugar, and dry fruits, is a special offering, especially cooling for the summer season.
• Panchamrit, a mixture of milk, curd, ghee, honey, and Gangajal, is essential for Vaishnava worship and must include Tulsi leaves, as Lord Ram does not accept offerings without them.
• Kesariya Bhaat (yellow sweet rice) symbolizes auspiciousness and knowledge, prepared with saffron, cardamom, and dry fruits, and is very dear to Lord Ram.
• Kheer and Puri hold special significance; Kheer is considered nectar-like, reminiscent of the Prasad from King Dasharath's yagna, and is often paired with Puri. Kandmul, fruits, Pana, and cool drinks are also offered, reflecting Lord Ram's exile and seasonal health.
