News India Live, Digital Desk: Do you remember that date of 22 January 2024? When Ramlala returned to his home. That feeling still gives goosebumps. But friends, today i.e. 25th November is also going to be recorded in golden letters in the pages of history. Today the journey of Ram temple has reached a new stage. PM Modi himself is in Ayodhya today and is hoisting the flag on the highest peak of Ram temple. You can consider this as the completion of the temple construction i.e. in a way the ‘finale’.
But why today?
Perhaps this question comes to your mind that what is so special about today? So let us tell you that today is ‘Vivah Panchami’. It is believed that the marriage of Lord Ram and Mother Sita took place on this holy date in Treta Yuga. Imagine, the day Ram and Sita were united, the flag is being hoisted on the peak of their palace (temple). What an amazing coincidence!
Abhijeet Muhurta: That magical moment
The game of Muhurat is very big in Hindu religion. The time chosen by Prime Minister Modi for hoisting the flag is- ‘Abhijeet Muhurta’Astrologers say that Lord Ram was born in this exact constellation and time period, This is considered to be the most auspicious time of the day, which guarantees success in any work, This time of about 44 minutes (from 11:45 am to 12:29 pm) is full of energy, During this time, PM Modi will reach the 161 feet high peak of the temple and hoist the saffron flag,
How is this flag and its importance?
This is no ordinary flag. It is being told that this is a huge saffron flag weighing 11 kg. The symbol of Lord Surya, Kovidar tree and ‘Om’ is engraved on it. In ancient times, hoisting a flag over a fort or palace meant that “the work has been completed and now Dharma rules here”. Today the same ritual is being performed in Ayodhya. Many people are also calling this the ‘second consecration’ because the Lord was seated in the sanctum sanctorum, but today the entire temple, its peak and its glory are fully visible to the world.
Devotion permeated the atmosphere
The view of Ayodhya is worth seeing. Security is tight, every nook and corner is guarded, but the enthusiasm of Ram devotees is much higher. Laser shows are taking place, flower decorations are as if heaven has actually descended. PM Modi will first bow his head at Sapt Mandir and other god places and then the moment will come for which everyone is waiting.
It is not just a religious ritual, but a celebration of the completion of centuries of struggle, patience and faith. We are all witnessing this historic moment, what could be a greater privilege than this?
