The sacred corridors of Ayodhya's Ram Temple are set to welcome devotees with revised timings as winter approaches. The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has announced a comprehensive new schedule that promises enhanced spiritual experiences for pilgrims visiting the hallowed shrine.
Revised Winter Timings: Key Changes
Beginning immediately, the temple will operate under the following revised schedule:
Morning Rituals:
The auspicious Mangala Aarti will now commence at 6:30 AM, allowing devotees to participate in the first prayers of the day during more comfortable morning hours. The Shringar Aarti follows at 8:00 AM, creating a seamless spiritual transition for early visitors.
Extended Darshan Hours:
General darshan will be available from 7:00 AM to 11:30 AM, providing ample time for devotees to seek blessings. The temple will reopen for evening darshan from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM, accommodating both daytime and evening visitors.
Evening Rituals and Temple Closure
The divine Shayan Aarti will be performed at 9:00 PM, marking the conclusion of the temple's daily spiritual activities. Following this final ritual, the temple will close at 9:30 PM, allowing for proper maintenance and preparation for the next day's ceremonies.
Enhanced Devotee Experience
These carefully considered adjustments reflect the Trust's commitment to ensuring a comfortable and spiritually enriching experience for all visitors. The winter schedule takes into account the colder morning temperatures while maximizing accessibility for devotees traveling from across India and beyond.
The timing revisions are particularly significant given the massive influx of pilgrims expected to visit the Ram Temple during the winter months, considered an ideal time for religious tourism in Uttar Pradesh.
