NEW DELHI: Kashi’s veteran Vedic Karmkand (ritualism) scholar Laxmikant Mathuranath Dixit on January 16 made it clear that PM Narendra Modi will be the mainyajman(patron) of consecration ritualson January 22. Others would assist the PM due to time constraints.
Dixit, is the principal acharya of the pran pratishtha, which will be overseen, coordinated and anchored by Kashi scholar and priest Ganeshwar Shastri Dravid along with a team of 121 acharyas.
“As the PM can’t stay for a long time to complete all the rituals, other people would be assisting him as yajman,” Dixit clarified.
Dixit said, “The rituals prior to consecration had begun in the temple in Ayodhya and ‘jalyatra’ was in progress. I will join the team of Vedic scholars and Karmkandis (ritual priests), and ‘yajman prayashchit’ ritual will be performed.”
