Recently, in Śrīdhāma Mayapur joyfully we celebrated the auspicious festival of Śrī Rāmacandra Vijayotsava — commemorating Lord Rāmacandra’s glorious victory over Rāvaṇa, symbolizing the eternal triumph of dharma over adharma, and light over darkness. 

As part of the celebration, the Mayapur community children presented a heart-touching drama depicting the divine pastimes of Lord Rāmacandra. With adorable costumes and sweet devotion, they beautifully enacted scenes from the Rāmāyaṇa — from Lord Rāma’s battle with Rāvaṇa, to the moment Lakṣmaṇa was struck by Indrajit’s weapon, and how Hanumān heroically flew to the Gandhamādana mountain to bring the Sañjīvanī herb, reviving him. 

The performance, held in the Mayapur Theater near Śrīla Prabhupāda’s Samādhi, was live-streamed on Mayapur TV, allowing devotees across the world to relish the sweetness of this offering. The children’s innocent expressions and heartfelt devotion reminded everyone of the timeless beauty of Lord Rāma’s story and His divine qualities of compassion, righteousness, and unwavering love. 

Adding to the festive joy, there was a beautiful procession within the Mayapur campus, where the deities of Lord Rāmacandra, Lakṣmaṇa, Sītā, and Hanumān were taken on parikrama amidst Harinām saṅkīrtana, melodious chanting, and joyful glorifications. The air was filled with the holy names and the sound of kartāls and mṛdaṅgas as devotees danced in bliss. 

This annual ritual is a cherished tradition in Mayapur, where, on each Appearance Day, the deities are lovingly taken around the campus — a sight that fills every heart with devotion and joy. This year’s Rāmacandra Vijayotsava was no exception — a truly uplifting and blissful day, uniting everyone in the spirit of love, service, and remembrance of Lord Rāma’s divine victory. 

May Lord Rāmacandra bless us all with strength, virtue, and devotion to always walk on the path of dharma.
