The author of the book “Yearning for Ram Mandir and Fulfilment is none other than the highly esteemed Justice Kamleshwar Nath Ji. The initial address of the book launch session was given by Justice Kamleshwar Nath Ji
After the pious lighting of the lamp, he initiated the book launch program by the famous chant enshrined in the minds and hearts of all Indians “Jai Shri Ram.” He expressed the fact that there were numerous obstacles in the path of building Ram Lalla Mandir in Ayodhya. He went on to say that the opposition parties criticised this move of the ruling government by saying that Bhagwan Ram never existed.
Kamleshwarji enlightened the audience that there has been no doubt behind the existence and authority of Christ and Prophet Muhammad, then why doubt about Bhagwan’s existence? He narrated that the story of Bhagwan Ram was propagated to the entire world first through Maharishi Valmiki in Ramayana and later by Goswami Tulsidas through Ramcharitmanas.
He highlighted that scientific evidence about the existence of Bhagwan Ram by mentioning the Nakshatras (Constellations) and the birth chart of Bhagwan Ram such as his astrological profile, zodiac signs including year as well as time of birth, which is 5114 BC and 12:25 PM respectively.
He then proceeded to narrate his own experience and anecdotes and stated that Jagadguru Rambhadracharya is the highest authority and expert on the science of the Supreme One (Bhagwan Ram) and said that French travellers who travelled to India visited the temple and wrote about it and it was Champat Rai Ji who took this herculean mission and, through his hard work brought the original manuscript of one French traveller and translated it which later served as the proof of the truth behind the temple.
Champat Rai Ji gave a concise legal history of the journey behind the establishment of the magnificent temple. Alok Kumar Ji said emulating the life of Bhagwan Ram was not an easy task to accomplish. He narrated the agonies, anguish faced by Shri Ram and praised all who were involved in the epic such as Kevat, Bharat and Sugriva to name a few.
Justice Bhawar Singh was the fourth speaker at the event. He shed light on the excavation and scientific aspects of the entire process. He began his address by explaining the importance of the “Ground Penetrating Radar” which helped in the discovery of several artefacts beneath the current structure.
Various findings emerged, which included an Amlak (which is generally put at the top of the Mandir and is frequently found in Vishnu temples. It connects the spiritual frequencies of devotees and worshippers inside the temple with the divine energy of Bhagwan Vishnu. Lotus Motifs were also unearthed along with pillars, and a shrine dedicated to Bhagwan Shiv was present too.
Dr Gopal Krishna Ji of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh focused his energy and address on how the original temple structure was destroyed a ravaged by invaders four to five times. He mentioned that farmans (royal orders) by iconoclastic and religiously intolerant rulers bear the actual testimony behind the destruction. But this did not stop Hindus to continue worship at the temple structure.
Many such attempts faced violent resistance by the despotic rulers. New structures were destroyed, but this everlasting and unextinguishable flame or spirit of Indians was indestructible. Bhagwan Ram resides in the hearts, minds, soul of every Hindu. At the end, he described the anecdotes mentioned in Valmiki Ramayana and Ramcharitmanas of Tulsidas which seemed to energise the spirit of all those present as an audience to this holy talk. With this the gracious event came to an end.
