    Om, Sun And Kovidara: What The Three Sacred Symbols On The Ram Temple Flag Mean

    2 months ago

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached Ayodhya on Tuesday to raise the 'Dharma Dhwaj' atop the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, an event locals describe as the fulfilment of a centuries-old dream. PM began his visit to the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple complex with prayers at the revered Saptmandir, setting the tone for a landmark day in Ayodhya.

    A Flag Designed For The Temple’s Summit

    The ceremonial flag, created specifically for the temple’s towering structure, measures 22 feet in length and 11 feet in width. A parachute specialist from Ahmedabad crafted the banner to withstand strong winds and high-altitude conditions at the 161-foot summit of the temple. Weighing between two and three kilograms, the flag has been reinforced for long-term endurance atop a 42-foot flagpole.

    Meaning Behind the Sacred Symbols

    The Dharma Dhwaj carries three revered symbols: Om, the Sun, and the Kovidara tree, each deeply rooted in Sanatan Dharma.

    • 'Om' denotes the eternal spiritual sound and cosmic energy that forms the universe’s foundation.
    • 'The Sun' reflects Lord Ram’s Suryavanshi lineage and represents divine strength.
    • The 'Kovidara tree', believed to be a hybrid of the Mandar and Parijat trees crafted by Rishi Kashyap, stands as a reminder of ancient wisdom and the continuity of sacred traditions.

    The flag will be hoisted during the Abhijit Muhurat on Vivah Panchami, a time considered especially auspicious in the Ramayan tradition.

    Sacred Saffron Flag To Be Raised At Noon

    At noon, PM Modi will hoist the temple’s sacred saffron flag atop the 191-foot shikhar, an act that symbolises the formal completion of the grand Ram Temple’s construction. The ceremony, steeped in tradition, is expected to usher in a renewed sense of cultural pride and unity across the nation. The Prime Minister will also address the gathering during this historic moment.
