On the occasion of Ram Navami, the wind of devotion is blowing in Ayodhya. Devotees have been taking a dip of faith in Saryu since early morning to have darshan of Ramlala. There is a long queue of devotees outside the temple.
Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust had decided to extend the period of darshan a few days ago. The darshan of Ramlala has started from 3:30 in the morning and will continue till 11 in the night. The Trust has already said that no special darshan will be organized on the day of Ram Navami. The earlier passes have also been cancelled.
Regarding the time of darshan, Trust General Secretary Champat Rai said that during the Ram Navami festival, after Mangala Aarti, Abhishek, Shringar and darshan will continue simultaneously from 3:30 am in the Brahma Muhurta. Shringaar Aarti will take place at five in the morning. At the time of offering food to God, the curtain will be drawn for a short period. The sequence of darshan will continue till 11 pm. After this, there will be Bhog and Shayan Aarti as per the circumstances.
After Shayan Aarti on Ram Navami, prasad will be available at the exit from the temple. Darshan will be facilitated if the devotees keep their mobile, shoes, slippers, big bags and prohibited items safely away from the temple. The ban on VIP darshan has been extended by one day. Now there will be no VIP darshan till 19th April. Sugam Darshan Pass, VIP Darshan Pass, Mangala Aarti Pass, Shringar Aarti Pass and Shayan Aarti Pass will not be issued. Below Sugriva Fort, in front of Birla Dharamshala, at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi entrance, a passenger service center has been built by Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra, in which public facilities are available. There are arrangements for the devotees ranging from seating to treatment. Live telecast of all the programs conducted in the temple will be done by installing LED screens at 100 places in the municipal corporation area.
