On Ganga Dussehra, Ayodhyaset for Raja Ram's consecration
Lucknow: On the auspicious occasion of Ganga Dussehra festival, the temple town of Ayodhya will witness the consecration of Raja Ram and other deities on the first floor of Ram Temple. The consecration ceremony will be led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath . This will be the second consecration event at the temple in over a year, with the first one, of Ram Lalla taking place in Jan last year. "On this special occasion, the Chief Minister will seek the blessings of Shri Ram, further strengthening his profound spiritual connection with Ayodhya," an official statement read. The event will coincide with the 53rd birthday of Yogi Adityanath. According to Hindu religious scriptures, Ganga Dussehra is considered a very auspicious day as it is believed that on this day, the river Ganga descended to earth from the locks of Lord Shiva. Chief priest of Rasik Niwas Temple in Ayodhya, Mahant Raghuvar Sharan, said: "This year, Ganga Dussehra will not only be a sacred but also a historic occasion as after a long struggle of 500 years, Raja Ram will be welcomed on the first floor of Ram Temple. The occasion will witness a unique blend of enthusiasm, devotion, and spirituality in Ayodhya." "The ceremony will be conducted on Thursday between 11.25am and 11.40am," said member of Ram Temple Trust Anil Mishra, who will also be the main 'yajman' to welcome the deity on Thursday. According to astrologer Kalki Ram, auspicious rituals performed on Ganga Dussehra yield manifold results. "Perhaps that is why the temple trust has shortlisted June 5 for the consecration of Raja Ram's idol. The time period between 11.25am and 11.40am is considered extremely auspicious," he said. "In addition to Ram Darbar, the consecration of seven other temples within the Ram temple complex will also take place. The entire process will be conducted amid religious rituals and Vedic chants, with learned Brahmins from across the country participating," said Anil Mishra.
