Ram Mandir Dhwajarohan: After a long wait of years, the construction of Ram temple has been completed today. Today the religious flag has been hoisted on the peak of Ram temple, which is a symbol of its completion. Every particle of Ayodhya city has become ‘Rammay’ today. PM Modi hoisted the flag with mantras. This moment is a day of pride for every Ram devotee, for every Indian and especially for Ayodhya. Many sages and thousands of devotees of the country became witnesses of this historic moment.
The religious flag is 22 feet long and 11 feet wide.
This flag to be hoisted in the Ram temple in Ayodhya is waving at a height of 191 feet. Hoisting this flag is not only a symbol of reverence for Lord Shri Ram, but also a proud memory of the Suryavanshi and Raghukul traditions of Ayodhya. The flag to be hoisted on the Ram temple will be weather-proof, that is, it will not be affected by strong sunlight or rain.
This flag is 22 feet long and 11 feet wide. The weight of the saffron colored flag is approximately 2.5 kg. In Hindu religion, saffron color is considered a symbol of sacrifice, penance and energy. There are three symbols in this flag – Om, Surya and Kovidar tree. Surya is the symbol of Suryavanshi tradition of Lord Rama. There is mention of Kovidar tree in Valmiki Ramayana. There will also be a circle in the flag. This flag has been prepared by 6 artisans together. The flags of all the seven temples in the Ram temple complex will be triangular, with only ‘Om’ symbol on them and they will be smaller than the flag of the main temple.
Importance of hoisting the flag on Ram temple
The tradition of hoisting the flag in temples has special significance in Hindu religion. The flag fluttering on the top of the temple symbolizes the presence of the deity and the entire place where it flutters is considered sacred. It is believed that the flag is a medium between the divine energy and the sanctum sanctorum. Flags and banners are also described in Valmiki Ramayana and Ramcharitmanas. The flag hoisting at Ram temple was done in Abhijeet Muhurta. Abhijeet Muhurta was from 11:52 to 12:35 in the afternoon. The marriage of Lord Ram and Sita also took place on this day, hence this day becomes even more special.
