Sun rays lit up the forehead of Ram Lalla's idol at the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh on the auspicious day of Ram Navami on Sunday.

The 'Surya Tilak' takes place at exactly 12 noon on Ram Navami where a beam of sunlight is precisely directed onto the forehead of the idol of Ram Lalla, forming a divine celestial tilak. 

The festival of Ram Navami is being celebrated across the country on Sunday with special arrangements made for devotees visiting the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. 

The Uttar Pradesh government has also planned to light more than two lakh diyas in the holy Hindu town, the birthplace of Lord Ram.
