Ayodhya, Nov 23 (NationPress) The city of Ayodhya is radiating with devotion and celebration as it gears up for the grand flag-hoisting ceremony set for November 25 at the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple. In the midst of the sacred rituals taking place in preparation for this momentous occasion, the acharyas and spiritual scholars involved in the ceremonies have expressed their sincere appreciation for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, attributing the transformation of Ayodhya and the realization of the Ram Temple to his leadership.
According to the acharyas participating in the ongoing rituals, the splendid and divine Ayodhya we witness today is a direct result of PM Modi's steadfast commitment and profound dedication.
Acharya Vijay Mahesh Pathak, the Principal of Shri Vishwanath Vedpathshala in Gujarat, who has come to conduct temple rituals, noted that PM Modi has successfully brought Sanatan Dharma back to the forefront globally.
"I extend my gratitude to Prime Minister Modi. Since 2014, he has revitalized the essence of Sanatan Dharma. After enduring thousands of years of penance and numerous sacrifices, the Ram Temple could not be constructed. Under PM Modi's guidance, this vision has finally been realized.
"Today, India's influence resonates worldwide, and nations acknowledge his leadership. His contributions, from safeguarding the Vedas and enhancing pilgrimage infrastructure to establishing Vedic institutions, are unparalleled," he stated.
Acharya Sagar Rajendra Sharma shared similar sentiments, referring to the magnificent, rejuvenated Ayodhya as the "gift of Modi ji".
"A decade ago, Ayodhya was in a dire state—dilapidated roads, lack of amenities, and challenges for devotees. The holy Ayodhya we see now is the fruit of Prime Minister Modi's efforts. From the laying of the foundation stone to Bhoomi Pujan, and from Pran Pratishtha to the upcoming flag-hoisting, PM Modi has participated in every ritual with devotion. He even undertook an 11-day fast before the Pran Pratishtha. No other prime minister has shown such dedication towards Vedic traditions, protecting cows, and preserving Sanatan culture," he said.
Spiritual leader Dr. Gajanan Jyotkar Maharaj described PM Modi as a "yogi at heart".
"His journey began with the RSS, and while many doubted the temple's construction, he made a resolute vow—'The temple will be built there.' Today, that vow is fulfilled. Since assuming the office of Prime Minister in 2014, he has transformed Ayodhya from a traditional religious town into a global spiritual hub. The introduction of high-speed rail, modern roads, an international airport, medical colleges, and advanced technology reflect his visionary plan. The expansive 74-acre Ram Temple complex and the city's extensive development are testament to PM Modi's unwavering commitment and devotion to Lord Ram," he concluded.
