Parvathy Ananthanarayanan Mangala, Founder of Ram SwaRajya Library, Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh), embodies a life where personal faith has gradually evolved into purposeful service rooted in dharma, knowledge, and spiritual values.
Parvathy spent over 35 years in Dombivli, Mumbai (Maharashtra)—a phase marked by sustained personal challenges and quiet perseverance. Throughout these years, her unwavering strength came from a deep and enduring devotion to Lord Rama and Lord Hanuman, a sacred bond that began in early childhood and matured steadily with time.
Her spiritual foundation was lovingly nurtured by her maternal aunt, Smt. Vijaya Lakshmanan of Chennai (Tamil Nadu). From a young age, Parvathy was encouraged to write “Sri Rama Jayam” repeatedly and offer these writings as Rama malas at temples dedicated to Lord Rama and Lord Hanuman. Alongside this practice, regular reading and viewing of the Ramayana shaped her inner discipline and faith, forming a simple yet powerful spiritual routine that stayed with her throughout life.
As the years passed, Parvathy discovered that even the sight of Lord Hanuman idols—in temples or public spaces—instantly brought her peace, joy, and emotional strength. Friends and well-wishers often guided her to recite the Hanuman Chalisa and continue offering Rama malas, not as a means to escape life’s difficulties, but as a source of inner resilience to face them with courage and clarity. This devotion became her anchor through prolonged and testing times.
In August 2025, Parvathy undertook a deeply transformative spiritual visit to Shri Ayodhya Dham. Her darshan at Shri Hanuman Garhi and the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir became a defining moment in her life. The experience brought profound clarity and awakened a strong inner calling to align her life more consciously with the ideals of Lord Rama—dharma, service, self-restraint, and righteousness.
Guided by this awakening, she took the decisive step of establishing the Ram SwaRajya Library in Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh). Conceived as a space for reading, reflection, and meaningful learning, the library is inspired by India’s rich spiritual heritage and timeless cultural wisdom. It seeks to encourage thoughtful engagement with knowledge that nurtures character, strengthens society, and upholds dharmic values.
Parvathy Ananthanarayanan Mangala’s journey carries a quiet yet powerful message: devotion may not eliminate hardships, but it grants the strength to rise above them. The Ram SwaRajya Library stands as a living expression of this belief—an offering of service and wisdom that contributes with sincerity to Ayodhya’s spiritual and intellectual landscape.
