#तुलसीदासजी का जन्म संवत्‌ 1554 की श्रावण शुक्ल सप्तमी के दिन #सरयूपारीण #ब्राह्मण के परिवार में हुआ था
जन्मते समय बालक तुलसीदास रोए नहीं, किंतु उनके मुख से
#राम का शब्द निकला। उनके मुख में बत्तीसों दाँत मौजूद थे जिसे देखकर पिता अमंगल की शंका से भयभीत हो गए थे। Image
तुलसीदास लगभग साढ़े पाँच वर्ष अनाथ हो गए थे। ऐसी मान्यता है #माता #पार्वती ब्राह्मणी का वेश धारण कर प्रतिदिन उसके पास जातीं और उसे अपने हाथों से भोजन करा जातीं। संवत्‌ 1561 माघ शुक्ल पंचमी श्री नरहरि ने उसका यज्ञोपवीत संस्कार कराया और उनका नाम #रामबोला रखा।
बिना सिखाए ही बालक रामबोला ने #गायत्री-मंत्र का उच्चारण किया, जिसे देखकर सब लोग चकित हो गए।
अयोध्या में ही रहकर उसे विद्याध्ययन कराने लगे।
बालक रामबोला की बुद्धि बड़ी प्रखर थी। एक बार गुरुमुख से जो सुन लेते थे, उन्हें वह कण्ठस्थ हो जाता था।
