Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Theerthshetra Ayodhya

“ श्री राम जय राम जय जय राम।“

Lord Rama is a revered figure in Hinduism and is considered the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu, one of the principal deities in the Hindu pantheon. The story of Rama is primarily narrated in the ancient Indian epic, the Ramayana, attributed to the sage Valmiki. The Ramayana is an epic poem that recounts the life and adventures of Rama, his wife Sita, and his loyal companion Hanuman.

Here are some key aspects of the story of Lord Rama:

Birth and Early Life: Rama was born to King Dasharatha of Ayodhya and Queen Kaushalya. His birth is celebrated on the ninth day of the Chaitra month in the Hindu calendar, known as Rama Navami.

Marriage to Sita: Rama's marriage to Sita is a central part of the Ramayana. He famously broke Lord Shiva's bow to win Sita's hand in marriage. However, Sita was later abducted by the demon king Ravana.

Exile: Due to a series of events and political intrigues, Rama, along with his wife Sita and his loyal brother Lakshmana, spent fourteen years in exile in the forests.

Slaying of Ravana: Rama, with the help of the monkey-god Hanuman and his army of monkeys, waged a war against the demon king Ravana to rescue Sita. In this epic battle, Rama ultimately defeated Ravana and rescued Sita.

Return to Ayodhya: After completing his exile, Rama returned to Ayodhya, where he was warmly welcomed by the people. This event is celebrated as Diwali, the festival of lights.

Ideal King and Dharma: Rama is often portrayed as an ideal king (Maryada Purushottama) and is admired for his adherence to dharma (righteousness) and his commitment to truth and justice.

Rama's Rule: Rama's reign in Ayodhya is considered a golden age, where justice prevailed, and people lived in harmony.

Bhakti Tradition: The story of Rama has inspired a rich tradition of devotional poetry, music, and art. The chanting of Rama's name, known as "Rama Nama," is considered a powerful form of spiritual practice in Hinduism.

Rama is a symbol of virtue, righteousness, and devotion in Hinduism, and his story continues to be a source of inspiration for millions of people.
The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra is a trust established by the Government of India for the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh. The temple is dedicated to Lord Rama, and its construction at the disputed site in Ayodhya has been a long-standing and contentious issue in Indian history.

Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi Dispute: The Ayodhya dispute revolved around the Babri Masjid, which was built in the 16th century by the Mughal emperor Babur.

The dispute led to communal tensions and, ultimately, the demolition of the Babri Masjid on December 6, 1992, by a group of activists.

Ram Janmabhoomi Verdict (2019): In November 2019, the Supreme Court of India delivered a historic verdict, stating that the disputed land in Ayodhya would be handed over to a trust for the construction of a Ram Temple, while an alternative five acres of land would be allocated for the construction of a mosque.

Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust: Following the court's decision, the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust was established in February 2020 to oversee the construction of the Ram Temple. The trust is responsible for planning, designing, and supervising the construction of the temple.

Bhoomi Pujan (Groundbreaking Ceremony): On August 5, 2020, a grand ceremony marked the groundbreaking of the temple. The event was attended by various dignitaries, including the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. The construction work for the temple officially began after the ceremony.

Design and Architecture: The design of the Ram Temple is based on the architectural traditions of the ancient Indian temple architecture, with specific reference to the Nagara style. The temple is expected to be a grand structure with intricate carvings and sculptures.

Expected Completion: The construction of the temple is expected to take several years. The project involves various phases, including the foundation laying, construction of the main temple structure, and the installation of the deity.

The construction of the Shri Ram Temple in Ayodhya is a significant cultural and religious development in India, and it holds immense importance for millions of Hindus who consider Ayodhya as the birthplace of Lord Rama.
