On the auspicious occasion of Ram Navami, a historic moment unfolded at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya as the first-ever Surya Tilak ceremony was performed on the idol of Ram Lalla.
At precisely noon, a specially designed system of mirrors and lenses directed a beam of sunlight onto the deity's forehead, creating a radiant "tilak" for a few minutes. This remarkable event beautifully combined ancient tradition with modern science, symbolising divine blessings.
