Ram Mandir , Ayodhya

 Ram mandir History 

Ram mandir is to be made in Ayodhya, also called Oudh or Awadh south-central Uttar Pradesh state. It lies on the Ghaghara River just east of Faizabad.

According to the ancient Indian epic, Ramayana Lord Rama was born in Ayodhya.
It is beloved that in the 16th century, the Mughals constructed a mosque, the Babri Masjid which is believed to be the site of the Ram Janmabhoomi, the birthplace of Rama. A violent dispute arose in the 1850s.

In the 1980s, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), belonging to the Hindu nationalist family Sangh Parivar, launched a new movement to reclaim the site for Hindus and to erect a temple dedicated to the infant Rama (Ram Lalla) at this spot.
In November 1989, the VHP laid the foundations of a temple on land adjacent to the disputed mosque.

On 6 December 1992, the VHP and the Bharatiya Janata Party organised a rally at the site involving 150,000 volunteers, known as kar sevaks. The rally turned violent, and the crowd overwhelmed the security forces and tore down the mosque.

The demolition resulted in several months of intercommunal rioting between India's Hindu and Muslim communities, causing the death of at least 2,000 people, and triggering riots all over the Indian subcontinent.
A day after the demolition of the mosque, on 7 December 1992, The New York Times reported that "30 Hindu temples across Pakistan" were attacked, some set on fire, and one demolished. The government of Pakistan closed school and offices in a day of protest.
Hindu temples in Bangladesh were also attacked.Some of these Hindu temples that were partially destroyed during the retaliation of Babri Masjid have since remained that way.

Further violence against Hindu structures in Pakistan was prevented by the Pakistan Army and local Muslim community.
A 1978 and 2003 archaeological excavation by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) found evidence indicating that Hindu temple remains had existed on the site.
Over the years, various title and legal disputes also took place, such as the passage of the Acquisition of Certain Area at Ayodhya Ordinance, 1993.
It was only after the 2019 Supreme Court verdict on Ayodhya dispute that it was decided the disputed land be handed over to a trust formed by the Indian government for the construction of a Ram temple.
The trust was eventually formed under the name Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra.

Five acres of land was allocated for the mosque elsewhere in the city.
On 5 February 2020, it was announced in the Parliament that the Narendra Modi government had accepted a scheme to construct the temple.

Mahabharat for Youths

Mahabharat For Youths Introduction :  "The Mahabharata is an ancient Indian epic where the main story revolves around two branches of a family - the Pandavas and Kauravas - who, in the Kurukshetra War, battle for the throne of Hastinapura. Interwoven into this narrative are several smaller stories about people dead or living, and philosophical discourses." Chapter 1: King Shantanu and Bheeshma Long, long ago, in ancient India, King Shantanu ruled the kingdom of Hastinapura. For centuries, Hastinapura was ruled by the Kuru family of King Shantanu. King Shantanu married the river Goddess Ganga and they had a child named Bheeshma. But Ganga had to go away to take care of so many people (she was the river Goddess).  So she left Bheeshma in the care of his father. Some years later, King Shantanu  married a fisherwoman named Satyavati and had two sons Vichitraveerya and Chitrangada. When he was old enouhj, Vichitraveerya became the King of Hastinapura. Bheeshma was very nice t...

Why Bells Are There In Temples?

Have you ever wondered "why bells are there in temples"? It is an age old tradition to ring the bell of the temple upon entering its premises. Bell ringing is an ancient Vedic ritual and one can see multiple bells hanging over the domes in many Indian shrines. It is said that the devotees knock God’s entrance to ask permission upon entering his holy sanctum. Making temple bells is a whole science . " The bell is made up of a mixture of five metals – lead, copper, zinc, iron, and tin" to which it is measured based on ratio and specification. Each of these bells is made to produce such a distinct sound that it can create a harmony between your left and right brains. The moment you ring that bell, it produces sharp but lasting sound vibration which lasts for minimum of seven seconds in echo mode — long enough to touch your seven healing centers (or chakras) in your body. The moment bell sound happens your brain is emptied of all thoughts . Invariably, you will enter ...

Why did lord krisha choose Arjuna instead of karna, Dronacharya, Bhisma?

Mahabharata is epic and always continues to fascinate people, even for those who know the least. It is a great treasure of facts and knowledge and it is impossible for anyone to know everything. Many of the facts omitted or even unknown to people. Mahabharata shows us the application of philosophy when it comes to deciding between right and wrong in cases where the answer is not simple. Mahabharata’s four main characters are Arjuna, Karna, Dronacharya, and Bhishma . From Karna, Drona, Bhisma, and Arjuna, it is Arjuna who stands out from the four as the hero. Karna, Drona, and Bhishma are remembered as tragic heroes. They all experienced sad deaths on the battlefield. So why does Lord Krishna choose Arjuna instead of Karna? Karna was a great warrior, in many ways greater than Arjuna. They may have been equal as archers, but physically, Karna was by far the stronger of the two. And even in sticking to one’s principles,  But in Karna’s life, there was one fatal flaw. He made his fri...
