Dear devotees This year, Sita-navami, the appearance day of Sita Devi, falls on the 23rd of April. Her glories are sun by the poet-saint Thyagaraja in his "Sri Janakatayane" Oh daughter of Janaka, the blessed souls of refugees! Oh Consort of Sri Raghu Rama, bedecked with shining gem-ornaments! Pray, protect me always! You are the wind that destroys the clouds of demons like the hundres-headed Ravana; You are the indweller in the hearts of the devotees; Your Feet shine with the lustre of gems set in the crown of Indra.
