The entire nation awaits January 22, the day slated to consecrate Lord Rama’s idol. The preparations for the event are in the final stages, and the auspicious moment for the Pran Pratishtha (consecration) has been officially finalized, adding to the anticipation surrounding this significant occasion.
According to the information available, the auspicious moment for placing Lord Rama’s idol in the sanctum sanctorum has been set between 1:20 PM and 1:28 PM on January 22. The Pran Pratishtha ceremony is scheduled to commence at 12:20 PM, with all 121 Vedic priests reaching the sanctum sanctorum at 12 PM. The idol will be consecrated during this auspicious moment, followed by a grand ceremony involving 24 different rituals.
Reports suggest that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to deliver a speech at the culmination of the Pran Pratishtha ceremony. The event is anticipated to witness the participation of around 8,000 guests. However, only a select few will be privileged to enter the Ram Mandir’s inner sanctum.
Notably, the Pran Pratishtha ceremony, scheduled for January 22 in the Ram Mandir, is preceded by various rituals and ceremonies. A Kalash Poojan (consecrating the ceremonial pot) was recently organized on Wednesday. The rituals will continue until January 21, leading up to the day when special ceremonies for the consecration of Lord Rama’s idol will take place.
In summary, the nation is eagerly counting the days to witness the historic Pran Pratishtha ceremony at the Ram Mandir on January 22, which marks a crucial milestone in the construction and consecration of the temple dedicated to Lord Rama.
