Ramnavami's past
In Ramayana, one of the biggest Hindu epics, the history of Ram Navami is mentioned (history). In particular, it relates how the mighty King Dashratha and his Queens carried out the Yagna, a puja rite for Putra Prapti, and is also known as Vratha Katha (the birth of sons).
Because none of his Queens could have a son, he had intentionally done this on the advise of Maha Rishi Vashishth. According to Hindu mythology, Lord Yajna, the Lord of Yagnas, gave the Queens a bowl of blessed kheer to eat at the conclusion of the Yagna.
According to legend, after eating the blessed kheer, the Queens became pregnant. On the ninth day of the Chaitra month, Sumitra gave birth to Lord Shatrughana and Lord Lakshmana, Kaikeyi to Lord Bharta, and Kausalya to Lord Rama. Since then, Hindus all over the world have been fervently commemorating the anniversary of Lord Rama's birth.
