Today, on 29 June 2025, the holy festival of Rambha Teej is being celebrated with reverence and faith in the whole of India. This festival is celebrated every year on Tritiya Tithi of Shukla Paksha of Jyeshtha month. Rambha Teej has special significance for married women. It is believed that by fasting on this day, women get the blessings of the most beautiful Rambha in the nymphs of heaven. The effect of this fast increases their beauty, the husband’s age is long and the married life becomes happy. On this occasion, a story is remembered, which is directly connected to Ravana and Mother Sita. This story tells why Ravana could not touch her even after Sita Mata was killed. At the core of this mystery is the curse given by Rambha to Ravana.
Story of Rambha and Ravana
When 14 gems appeared at the time of sea churning, one of them was Apsara Rambha. Rambha was famous in the three worlds due to her divine beauty, melodious voice and amazing dance. When Ravana invaded heaven under his Vishwavijaya Yatra and reached there, he caught sight of Rambha. Seeing the form of Rambha, he became comfortable and tried to hold Rambha by force.
Nalakuber’s wife was Rambha
At that time Rambha told Ravana that he is the wife of Nalakuber, son of his half -brother Kubera. This is why Rambha became like Ravana’s daughter -in -law. But Ravana ignored this and tried to force it.
Curse result
Hurt by this insult, Rambha cursed Ravana. He said that if he touch a woman without her will, her head will be cut into pieces. This curse was so powerful that even when Ravana killed Mother Sita in the story of Ramayana, he could not even touch her. Ravana knew that if Rambha’s curse came true, then his life would end.
Spiritual message of Rambha Teej
Rambha Teej is not just a fast, but a symbol of female power and dignity. This day reminds women that their desire and respect is paramount. At the same time, this festival also teaches that when a woman stands to protect her self -esteem, then the demon and Ravana bigger than the gods can not spoil her.
conclusion
Rambha Teej is not only a celebration of beauty and marital happiness, but this day also leads to a story that tells that there is no force greater than reverence, dignity and self -respect. The curse of Rambha reflects not only the story of a divine power, but the importance of every woman’s self and her will.
