Shrawan: All aarti tickets of KVT sold out
Varanasi: Tickets for all four Aartis, which require booking for participation, for the auspicious Shrawan month, have been sold out. Among the five Aartis, entry of devotees without any ticket is allowed only during the Shayan Aarti. Regarding the Shrawan month, commencing from July 11, Kashi Vishwanath Temple Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Vishwa Bhushan Mishra said that the trend of large crowds during this auspicious month will remain evident this year as well. Through the temple's online booking facility, pilgrims from across the globe have already purchased Aarti tickets for all days of the Shrawan month. "All booking slots for the daily Aartis during the month of Shrawan are full," he said. The temple allows booking of tickets for four Aartis— Mangala Aarti, Bhog Aarti, Saptarishi Aarti, and Shringar/Bhog Aarti. However, no booking has been done for Shayan Aarti, specifically performed by the local residents of Kashi by singing hymns to put the deity to sleep.

Eight deities to be consecrated in Ram mandir this week
Ayodhya: A major milestone in the first phase of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi temple complex's construction will be completed this week with the Prana Pratishtha (consecration) of eight deities in the premises. Champat Rai, general secretary of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, announced on Monday that the consecration ceremonies will be held between June 3 and 5. 'The rituals will culminate on June 5 at 11.25 am, when the main Prana Pratishtha Puja will be performed, followed by Bhog Aarti around 1 p.m. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is scheduled to attend the ceremony,' he said. The deities whose idols will be consecrated include Shivling, Ganpati, Hanuman Ji, Surya Dev, Bhagwati, Annapurna, Sheshavatar, and Shri Ram Darbar. A total of 101 Vedic acharyas from across India will perform the rituals in traditional Vedic style. 'This is a worship-centric event, not a grand public gathering,' Rai emphasised. 'We request devotees not to inconvenience themselves by coming in large numbers, especially on June 5. There is no formal invitation system. The event is open to all, but we expect devotion, discipline, and restraint from everyone,' Rai urged. June 5 also marks the festival of Ganga Dussehra, and coincidentally, it is also the birthday of CM Yogi Adityanath. Champat Rai called this alignment of events 'spontaneous and a reflection of divine will.' The three-day Vedic ceremony will commence at 6:30 a.m. each day, with the main rituals scheduled for June 5. In the run-up to the Prana Pratishtha, a Kalash Yatra was held on Monday, starting from the banks of the Saryu River. A large number of women participated in the religious procession, which passed through Rangmahal Barrier, Lata Chowk, Rampath, Shringar Haat, Hanumangarhi Bazaar, Dashrath Mahal, and Ramkot Barrier before reaching the Yagya Sthal.
