In a divine spectacle in Ayodhya, the gold-adorned Ram Lalla's first visuals emerged during the Pran Pratishtha ceremony. The consecration rituals, starting from the Saryu River on January 16, culminated in the idol's arrival on January 17. The ceremony, enriched with religious symbols, involved worship, havan, and bathing the idol with sacred waters.

Ayodhya
witnessed a profound moment of spiritual significance as the first visuals of
the gold-adorned Ram Lalla were unveiled following the Pran
Pratishtha ceremony. Commencing on January 16, the consecration rituals
reached their zenith, culminating in the arrival of the idol on January 17. The
elaborate ceremony, emanating from the sacred waters of the Saryu River,
embraced a rich tapestry of religious symbols.
In a ceremonial spectacle within the under-construction Ram Temple, the revered idol underwent a symbolic bathing ritual. Medicated and holy water, sourced from 114 Kalash or urns representing various pilgrimage sites across the nation, sanctified the idol. The ceremony, attended by Temple trust member Anil Mishra and his family, as well as Vishva Hindu Parishad national president Dr. Ram Narain Singh, unfolded with worship and havan, extending late into the evening.
The
ritualistic proceedings extended beyond the new idol; the older idol of Lord
Rama in the temple complex also received devout worship. The entire episode
marked a union of devotees in a collective spiritual fervor, emphasizing
Ayodhya's role as a sacred center.
The
consecration journey, laden with symbolism and tradition, showcased the idol
adorned with religious motifs, including Om, Ganesh, Chakra, Sankh, Gada,
Swastik, and Kamala Nayan. This sacred display resonated with believers and
signified the deep-rooted cultural and religious heritage of Ayodhya.
Anticipation
now builds for the forthcoming Pran Pratishtha scheduled for Monday afternoon,
marking the ceremonial establishment of the idol's divine presence. The
spiritual saga has not only captivated Ayodhya but has reverberated across
communities, transcending geographical boundaries. The gold-adorned Ram Lalla
stands as a testament to the enduring spiritual legacy of Ayodhya, enriching
the cultural tapestry of the region.
