Arun Yogiraj, a sculptor from Mysuru, has gained national recognition for his exceptional work on the idol of Ram Lalla, which now graces the sanctum sanctorum of the newly inaugurated Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Renowned sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik took to social media to extend his congratulations to Yogiraj for his creation.
The unveiling of the idol was a momentous occasion led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the 'Pran Pratishtha' event. This ceremony marked a significant cultural and spiritual milestone, as it symbolised the homecoming of Lord Ram after centuries.
Pattnaik expressed his admiration for Yogiraj's work, acknowledging the divine inspiration behind the sculpture and wishing him continued blessings from Lord Ram.
“Namaskar @yogiraj_arun ji You are truly blessed by Lord Vishwakarma. Your sculpture of Bhagwan Ram Lalla is heart touching for me as an Artist. May blessings of Prabhu Ram be always with you. Jai Shri Ram,” Pattnaik wrote in the caption.
Take a look:
The Ram Mandir itself is an architectural marvel, embodying India's ancient Nagara style. Its grandeur is evident in its impressive measurements: 380 feet in length, 250 feet in width, and a towering height of 161 feet. The temple complex spans over 70 acres, with the main temple structure occupying 2.7 acres of this sacred land.
Visitors and devotees alike are captivated by the idol's intricate details, especially the lifelike eyes and serene smile. The temple, with its majestic presence, stands as a symbol of India's enduring cultural legacy and the skillful craftsmanship of its people.
