Ram Darbar will shine for centuries. The idol of Ram Darbar has been carved on a 40-year-old marble stone. The specialty of this stone is that the more it is washed the more its shines

Such history is being created on the holy land of Ramnagari, whose aura will be felt by the coming generations as well. The construction of a grand temple at Shri Ram Janmabhoomi is also becoming an unmatched example of architecture and scientific thinking.

The glory of Ram Darbar, which will be installed on the first floor of Ram Mandir, is not only going to be incomparable from the religious point of view, but also from the architectural point of view. The marble stone from which Ram Darbar is constructed is not only unique in strength, but the shine and brilliance in it will not fade for centuries.

Renowned sculptor Satya Narayan Pandey, who carved Ram Darbar, says that the marble stone selected for the construction of Ram Darbar is about 40 years old. He claims that the idol of Ram Darbar will remain safe for a thousand years.

The specialty of this stone is that the more it is washed, bathed, the more its shine will increase. Sculptor Satya Narayan said that after this stone was selected, a team of scientists from IIT Hyderabad scientifically examined it. Special attention was paid to the ability to withstand the effects of weather, time and environment. Aspects such as strength, moisture absorption rate, abrasion capacity and temperature tolerance were tested. After investigation in various laboratories, experts gave the green signal for construction.

The statue will be seven feet high including the throne

Sculptor Satyanarayan said that the height of the statue of Ram Darbar including the throne will be seven feet. The statues of Hanuman and Bharat are in a sitting posture, whose height is two and a half feet. The statues of Laxman and Shatrughan are in a standing posture, their height is three feet each.

CM Yogi will witness the Prana Pratishtha ceremony

The name of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is going to be inscribed in golden letters in the history of Ayodhya. The Chief Minister will witness the Prana Pratishtha ceremony of Ram Darbar and other idols on the first floor of Ram temple on Thursday. He will be the chief host of the ceremony. The CM will remove the cover from the statue of Ram Darbar and will also complete the process of eye meeting.

Coincidentally, today is the 53rd birthday of CM Yogi Adityanath. He will celebrate his birthday in Ayodhya this time. CM Yogi Adityanath will reach Ayodhya today. He will attend the Pran Pratishtha ceremony at Ram Mandir. He will perform Darshan-Pooja at Hanuman Garhi. He will go to Mani Ram Das’s cantonment and attend the birth anniversary celebrations of Mahant Nritya Gopal Das. Apart from this, CM Yogi Adityanath will also inaugurate the Saryu Mahotsav. CM Yogi is also likely to attend the Municipal Corporation’s Achievement Ceremony. Preparations for the ceremony are going on in full swing in the temple premises. A small pandal is also being decorated.

SP Security Balaramachari Dubey and temple construction in-charge Gopal Rao inspected the arrangements of the temple. SP Security said that the security of the temple is impenetrable. A team of ATS, CRPF, PAC and civil police personnel has been deployed. Magistrates have also been put on duty at the administration level.

Mahant Mithilesh Nandini Sharan said that the Chief Minister is coming to consecrate Raja Ram and other gods. It is a matter of happiness that a monk understood the spiritual values ​​of the state and made it energetic. Today the people of Ayodhya do not have to go out for livelihood. People are doing business here. If you search Ayodhya on Google today, the first image that comes up is that of Deepotsav.

Shashikant Das, President of Anjaneya Seva Sansthan, the organiser of Saryu Mahotsav, said that Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has restored the glory. He is the one who has brought the Lord out of the sack and seated him in a grand temple. On June 5, he will once again install King Ram. In Treta Yug, Vashishtha ji had done the coronation and now Yogi Maharaj will do the coronation of Lord Ram.

The date of starting darshan in Ram Darbar will be decided in the trust meeting.

District Magistrate Nikhil Tikaram Funde said that the Pran Pratishtha ceremony in the newly built Ram Darbar on the first floor of Ram temple and the newly built six temples in the rampart will conclude on Thursday May 5, 2025 . He said that even after Pran Pratishtha, VIPs and general devotees will not be able to have darshan in Ram Darbar and the other six temples in the rampart. The date of opening Ram Darbar for general devotees will be decided in the meeting of Ram Mandir Trust on June 7, 2025 .

The Pran Pratishtha ceremony is a Hindu ritual that involves consecrating or infusing life into an idol or deity, thereby establishing the divine presence within the image. The term ‘Pran Pratishtha’ is derived from two Sanskrit words: ‘Prana,’ meaning life force or vital energy, and ‘Pratishtha,’ meaning to establish or install. In essence, the ceremony is a process through which the deity is invoked, and its spiritual essence is believed to reside in the consecrated idol.
