ShreeRaamaJanmabhoomi, Ayodhya..!!

ShreeRaamaJanmabhoomi, Ayodhya, one of the 7 mokshapuris of the pious BharataBhoomi finally gets it's much deserved respect and honour for all the struggle it went through since really a very long time....

The foundation stone laying ceremony 

( referred to as Shankhusthaapana / Shilaanyaasam / Bhoomipooja etc ) for a grand ShreeRaamaMandiram for Raamlalla in his very own place certainly marks the beginning of a brand new era in the mighty Indian history that holds a great prominence not only historically but also spiritually as well, for that 'Ayodhya' the capital city of the vast Kosala Saamraajyam ruled by the SuryaVamsha dynasty of ShreeRaamachandraPrabhu and his ancestors, is not just any another mere piece of land. It is the birthplace of that great personality called ShreeRaama who descended all the way from the holy abodes of ShreeVaikuntham as a mortal human being to become Kausalyanandan and it is that prominent place which was chosen by aadiparaaShakti ShreeSeetadevi who grew up as Janakanandini to reside with her husband ShreeRaam who together taught this world each and every aspect of human life to be emulated by the humanity at large......

Ayodhya, is that sacred place that spoke to Bharata asking him to continue his rule as is until Shree Raam returns, in the form of Ayodhya AdhisTaanadevata, when he tried to change the capital city during ShreeRaam's vanavaasam...

The name "Ayodhya" essentially reflects the very spirit of this Dharmabhoomi / Karmabhoomi / Vedabhoomi / Devabhoomi, that always preaches

 

"Om

SahaanaavavatuSahanaubhunaktu..."

because ayodhya means "a - yodhya", that which doesn't bring in any conflicts with anyone. that which endorses peaceful living among all its residents,

that which let's all his inhabitants to dwell in harmony with the nature and all the surroundings.

Ayodhya, is that sacred place where in the the most revered event of "ShreeRaamaPattaabhishekam", the coronation ceremony of Lord ShreeRaam, after returning from Ravanavadha in the PushpakaVimaanam , 

to crown him as the unanimous emperor of BharataBhoomi with the Holy waters brought from 500 different rivers spread  across the globe, has been performed after which Lord ShreeRaam has ruled the Raamaraajyam for almost 11000 years 

( as per Shree Vaalmiki Raamaayanam explained by my Guruji sathguru Shree ChaaganTi gaaru, 

"daSavarshasahasraani daSavarShaSataanicha Raamoraajyamupaasitwa...."

which means for ( 10 * 1000 ) + ( 10 * 100 ) = 11000  years Lord ShreeRaamachandra had a glorious rule over his empire before he did "Sarayu nadeepravesham" to get himself liberated to return to his supreme consciousness in the holy ShreeVaikuntham, by blessing the same to hundreds and hundreds of his citizens whoever did SarayunadeePravesham along with him on that day..! ) 

which is considered as an utopian rule even today and of course forever as well, because of the supreme traits exhibited by Lord ShreeRaam as the most venerated emperor, Kosalaadheesh, ever witnessed by the mankind....

May the spirit of that Lord ShreeRaam and his magnanimity be celebrated with fervor to inspire the entire world at large for several thousands of millennia to come and may this new ShreeRaamMandir become the source of that reverberating cosmic energy across every soul born off of this sanaatana devabhoomi.....!

And thus the saint poet Shree Taallapaaka Annamaacharya has rightly extolled the unparalleled greatness of Lord ShreeRaam as the emperor of the glorious Ayodhya city stating.... 

" atulitaayodhyapuraadhipaaya......."

in his sankeertana " RaajeevaNetraaya..."
