Ayodhya's Ramayan and Vedic Shodh Sansthan to turn into degree college At present, the state government is running the institute from a building in Ayodhya. The government renamed Ayodhya Shodh Sansthan as International Ramayan and Vedic Shodh Sansthan in December 2023. The cultural department of the state government has been the Sansthan since August 18, 1986. The government has asked the Ayodhya administration to look for a land where the college could be set up. According to the Ayodhya administration, a six-acre plot near the Ayodhya Dham bus stand has been suggested for the project. According to Ashutosh Dwivedi, the in-charge of the Sansthan, it will take another two to three years for the college to start functioning from its own building. However, from next year, the institute will try to start some courses. The International Ramayan and Vedic Sodh Sansthan has been tasked with the responsibility of making available research work on Lord Ram to the public at a reasonable price. 'The basic principle of the Ramayana is Sanatan culture, which has its roots in the Vedic period. Keeping this in view, there is a need for research into Vedic science and literature in detail,' said Girishpathi Tripathi, the mayor of Ayodhya. At present, the institute will compile lectures and sermons by scholars and experts associated with the Ramkatha and Ramayana traditions.

Acharya Kartikey was awarded the 'International Sanatan Dharma Jyotish Ratna Award' in recognition of his deep knowledge, spiritual insight, and consistent contributions to the ancient science of astrology. In addition, he was presented with the 'Jyotish Brilliance International Award', further acknowledging his impactful work in the field. Astrologers from different corners of the country participated in this global event, including Dr. Dilbag Rai Bhatia from Hanumangarh (Rajasthan), Deepak Bhatt from Gujarat, and Gopal Mishra from Jaipur, among others. While addressing the esteemed gathering, Acharya Kartikey highlighted the transformative power of human consciousness and yogic awareness. He elaborated that many planetary challenges can be transcended by aligning one's energy through meditation and regular spiritual practice. 'Take Saturn (Shani), for example,' he said, 'often feared for its lethargic or heavy influences. Yet, when approached with inner awareness and discipline, Saturn becomes a great teacher of perseverance and self-mastery.' He emphasized that astrology, when practiced with devotion and understanding, can become a guiding light—not only to predict but also to empower individuals to overcome challenges and live in harmony with cosmic energies.
