In the Pran Patna event to be held in Ayodhya on 22 January, two devotees of Lord Shri Ram together have done something that everyone is surprised. These devotees have made such an idol of Shri Ram that crowds of people are gathering to see it. Sculptor Jitendra and Chandan made the idol of Shri Ram with Tulsi garland. Looking at the idol, it seems as if Lord Shri Ram is actually present in it. The height of the statue is five feet. 50 thousand Tulsi beads have been used in making it. The statue has been finalized. It will be taken to Sabzibagh Langartoli Choraha Bharat Mata Temple.
From January 22, people will worship this idol of Lord Shri Ram.
This idol will be worshiped after the consecration ceremony. Sculptor Jitendra said that not everyone is able to go there for this Pran Pratistha, so he made a unique statue of Lord Ram in Patna itself. It took 15 days to prepare it. On the question where did the idea of making idol from Tulsi garland come from, Jitendra said that Tulsi is worshiped in Sanatan. Tulsi is also considered a form of Goddess Lakshmi. It is considered lucky. Therefore the statue has been constructed using Tulsi. It will be installed in the Bharat Mata Temple at Langartoli intersection on 22 January. After the Pran Pratistha ceremony taking place in Ayodhya, people will be able to worship here also.
