Pilgrims gathering at Ayodhya’s Ram Janmabhoomi Temple

A significant number of devotees from across India visited the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya on Tuesday to seek blessings from Ram Lalla.
Devotees shared their profound experiences during their visit to the temple in Ayodhya.

Murli, a devotee from Telangana, expressed feeling blessed upon reaching the sacred land of Ayodhya.

“Arriving in this sacred land of Ayodhya, I feel honored and blessed, considering myself fortunate. The arrangements made here are truly exceptional, and it feels like a divine blessing. I extend heartfelt gratitude and admiration to both Modi Ji and Yogi Ji. All devotees from India should come here and seek the divine presence of Lord Ram.”

He further chanted, “Those who have brought Ram, we will bring them back… Modi Ji has come, Modi Ji will come,” referring to the outcome of the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.

Another devotee marveled at the beauty of Lord Ram’s idol, finding it challenging to express the experience in words.

“I felt very good after having the darshan and exploring around. The idol of God looked so beautiful that words fail to describe it. Despite the long queues, it didn’t take us much time to have an extended darshan. I would recommend everyone to come here for darshan. The arrangements are also excellent,” the devotee said.

Amit, a devotee from Noida, shared his feelings after having the darshan of the temple.

“This morning, we had the darshan of the temple. It was a very fulfilling experience. The line kept moving smoothly, so there was not much discomfort. The surroundings are beautiful, and one can even have darshan from a distance as well as up close,” Amit said.

The ‘Pran Pratishtha’ of Shri Ram Lalla at Ayodhya’s historic temple was held on January 22, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi performing the Vedic rituals, led by a group of priests.

The ceremonial journey leading up to the Pran Pratishtha included a seven-day ritual that commenced on January 16, 2024.
The Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Mandir has been constructed in the traditional Nagara style. Its length (east-west) is 380 feet; width is 250 feet, and height is 161 feet; supported by a total of 392 pillars and 44 doors.

The pillars and walls of the temple showcase intricately sculpted depictions of Hindu deities, Gods, and Goddesses. In the main sanctum sanctorum on the ground floor, the childhood form of Bhagwan Shri Ram (the idol of Shri Ramlalla) has been placed.
