Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh) [India], January 25 : As a huge crowd of devotees continued to visit the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Sharad Sharma on Thursday said that the temple had received crores of donations.
"Devotees from the entire country are showcasing their dedication towards Lord Ram. They are donating money, gold and silver. Their feelings are pure and scared."
VHP leader Sharad Sharma elaborated that the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya will always remain financially prosperous due to the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi.
"Ram Lalla is enthroned there. Ram was an incarnation of Lord Vishnu whose wife was Goddess Laxmi. She would never want any financial frailty at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. The grandeur of the temple will never be demeaned" he said.
VHP leader Sharad Sharma emphasised that the devotees are donating through various modes.
"Whosoever comes, donates something or the other. We consider all those who donate at Ram Mandir very fortunate. Some donate grains, others donate clothes and money. Devotees have donated crores of money within 2-3 days. The officials were earlier estimating that the Ram Mandir would bring economic prosperity. The amount donated online will be calculated by the banks. The statistics on it are still unknown. Those who are giving by physically visiting can be estimated."
Meanwhile, Braving the fog and cold early in the morning on Thursday, devotees continued to arrive for the darshan of Ram Lalla at Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya three days after the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony.
The Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lalla at Ram Temple in Ayodhya was held on Monday. The Ram Lalla idol was unveiled at the Pran Pratishtha ceremony after the hour-long rituals in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi who led the ceremony.
The event saw the participation of about 8,000 invitees, including 1,500-1,600 eminent guests.
The 'Ram Nagri' Ayodhya also grabbed global eyeballs, with earthen lamps or diyas lit up on a massive scale and crackers going up and dazzling the night sky in different parts of the city.
