Ayodhya, which was immersed in the celebration of Ram Lalla’s life consecration, is now in the colors of Ram Janmotsav. Ramlala’s birth anniversary is going to be celebrated in a grand palace after 500 years. Therefore this time the celebration will be supernatural and grand. Ayodhya will be immersed in the joy of Ram Navami from Tuesday. Congratulatory songs and various rituals will start in eight thousand monasteries and temples of Ramnagari. Ram temple will be the center of attraction. During the auspicious time of Ram Janmotsav, Ram Lalla will wear special clothes made of Khadi from Chaitra Pratipada to Ram Navami.
Famous designer Manish Tripathi, who makes Ramlala’s clothes, said that Ramlala’s clothes have been made from special Khadi cotton. Gold and silver have been hand-printed on these. All the symbols used in printing are of Vaishnav system. Ramlala wears clothes according to the day. Therefore, clothes of different colors are being prepared for them.
At the same time, the arrival of devotees for the Ram Navami fair has also started. On Monday, on Chaitra Amavasya, one lakh devotees took bath in Saryu and worshiped Nageshwarnath Mahadev. On this occasion, women worshiped the Peepal tree and took rounds for the long life of their husbands. After this the devotees attended Ramlala and Hanumangarhi. Devotees who are not getting accommodation in Hotel Dharamshala are taking shelter in their Guru places.
Ram will be praised through stories and sermons
