The Pran pratishtha and the opening ceremony of the Ayodhya Ram Temple in Ayodhya was a grand affair. It was celebrated by millions of Hindus not just in India, but across the globe. Many celebrities and devotees worldwide joined the Pran Pratishtha ceremony in Ayodhya, on 22nd January. The new Ram lala idol is made like a 5-year-old baby idol of Shree Ram. But now there is a question coming up, what happened to the old idol of the old Ram Mandir?
Many people had claimed that they saw a Ram idol mysteriously appear in the Babri Masjid. This has hurt religious sentiments around the site which led to a legal battle and this battle went on for decades! When all of these battles ended, a new idol of Lord Ram was placed at the Ram temple in Ayodhya. But what about the old idol?
The Officials and priests of the Mandir Trustee committee have said that the old idol will be moved into the new temple and placed on a throne opposite to the new Ram Lalla idol. The temple construction committee Chairman Nripendra Misra said, “The lord who is already there will also move to the temple. Ceremonies are being performed. The idol which is in the temporary temple will also move to the ‘Garbha Griha’. You will have a standing idol of Ram Lalla, and also the ‘murti’ (idol) which appeared in 1949. Both idols will be at the ‘singhasan’ (throne).”
The new idol of Ram Lalla is 51-inch tall, carved from black stone, dressed in a yellow dhoti with a golden crown, and necklaces, holding a golden bow and arrow. Three idols of Lord Ram were built at first. From them, the one which Mysuru-based sculptor Arun Yogiraj sculpted has been selected for “Pran Prathistha“.
