Navayatana Sri Rama Temple

A Unique Divine Vision in a Single Krishna Shila

A sacred page dedicated to the distinctive temple vision, Ramayana values, sculptural splendour and spiritual purpose of the Navayatana Sri Rama shrine within the Mahameru complex.

A Rare Unified Sculpture of Sri Rama and the Divine Family

The Navayatana Sri Rama Temple is being developed as one of the most distinctive sacred shrines within the Mahameru temple complex. Under the guidance of Sri Jyotirvastu vidyapeetam, a unified sculpture of Lord Sri Rama with His divine family is planned to be created from a single Krishna Shila measuring approximately 15 × 10 × 7 feet.

The vision includes ten divine forms carved from one single rock, presenting the sacred Rama Parivara in an extraordinary and spiritually moving form.

This rare creation is intended to offer devotees a profound darshan experience while showcasing the excellence of traditional Indian stone sculpture and the timeless values of the Ramayana.
