Surya Tilak for 'Suryavanshi'
The Free Press Journal|April 18, 2024
In an epochal event, a ray of sun illuminated the forehead of Ram Lalla at precisely 12 noon, marking the commencement of the revered Surya abhishek ritual on the occasion of Ram Navami.
Surya Tilak for 'Suryavanshi'

The divine moment lasted for approximately four minutes starting at noon and unfolded in the backdrop of jubilant celebrations captured on large LED screens placed at nearly 100 vantage points across the sacred town.

The significance of the event deeply resonated with the residents of Ayodhya, who have awaited the construction of the temple at Lord Ram's birthplace for over five centuries. "To witness the sunlight adorning Ram Lalla's forehead is nothing short of a miracle," remarked Anjali Verma, a resident of Ayodhya. "It reaffirms our faith strengthens and our connection to Lord Ram." 

All this was made possible by a dedicated team of ten scientists stationed at the Ram Mandir. Employing cutting-edge technology, by using a combination of mirrors and lenses, a 5.8-centimeter beam graced the deity's forehead for about three to three-and-a-half minutes, with two minutes of full illumination.
