Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh) [India], April 17 : On the occasion of Ram Navami on Wednesday, Amar Das, a sadhu, expressed his happiness, saying that it feels like the almighty is here in person.
"All devotees are gathering here...After 500 years, it seems that 'Satyug' has come back. Lord Ram has returned and those who worship him with a clear conscience will have no pain in their lives," he said.
He further shared that it feels as if the Lord himself is roaming around here.
Earlier in the day, The Ram Temple in Ayodhya witnessed a unique event as the forehead of the Ram Lalla idol was anointed with a ray of sunlight, known as 'Surya Tilak'.
The "Surya Tilak" of Ram Lalla was done at noon through an elaborate system connected with mirrors and lenses in the Ram Temple.
The temple trust had commissioned a team of scientists to make this occasion possible. Using scientific expertise, a beam of light illuminated Ram Lala's forehead. To achieve this phenomenon, sunlight was precisely directed onto the statue's forehead using a combination of mirrors and lenses. This was carried out precisely at 12 noon for about 3 minutes.
Even as Ram Lala was to be anointed with the Surya Tilak, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a reference to the historic occasion in his election rally at Nalbari, Assam. With a chant of Jai Siyawar Ram, the PM said, "Today is the historic occasion of Ram Navami. After waiting for 500 years, Lord Ram has been seated in his grand temple. Now, after a few minutes, by applying Surya Tilak to Lord Ram, his birth anniversary will be celebrated in the holy city of Ayodhya, in the Ram Temple."
