He also explained with an analogy that when a man asked his son how big the sea was, the son spread his arms and and said that the sea was so big and then the father realized that the child could explain how big the sea was in his own capacity and his own way. Exactly the same way, Ram ji is an ocean, who is calm, vast and undisturbed. He explained that Rama is the perfect example of how to live a life of righteousness and devotion to the divine.

It is a known fact that Tulsidas of the electronic era, Bollywood's world famous producer, director, Padamashree recipient respected late Dr. Ramanand Sagar ji's and his dutiful son, producer, director Prem Sagar and his entire family are ardent devotees of Lord Rama. The great film and TV producer director Dr. Ramanand Sagar ji , fulfilled his duty of telling the whole world about Lord Rama, by presenting the most precious heritage of the electronic era, tv serial Ramayana epic which was entrusted to him by the Supreme power by presenting the most precious heritage of the electronic world , tv serial Ramayana epic. No one had done this before. Honorable Prem Sagar ji shared his valuable thoughts and presenting his thoughts with the slogan of Jai Shree Ram said, "Avtari Maharshi, Gurudev, Mahesh Yogi ji, Millions of salutations, from my respected father Shri Dr. Ramanand Sagar and his son Prem Sagar. Now the question arises as to why my revered father, Padma Shri Dr. Ramanand Sagar ji was born? for what reason his soul was sent to earth? There was definitely some secret and calculation behind it. It must be some divine plan, that's why he took birth in this earth. When he was born, he was named Chandramouli. It is the name of Lord Shiva, meaning the one who holds the moon. The first Devine soul Shankar ji, who created the Ramayana, by telling the story to Mother Parvati, and Kak Bhushundi jj (who was also from Ayodhya) perched nearby heard the story and broadcasted it in his bird gathering. At that time there was no script, so Valmiki ji composed it in twenty-four thousand poems, then when the script started , Tulsidas ji wrote it in period language and today when it is the era of electronic gadgets, Twitter, Facebook, internet, Ramayana has been made available to the masses through the electronic medium . God has given my revered father, Dr. Ramanand Sagar,(Padmashree) the duty to reach up to the masses and tell the story of Great Rama through his world famous tv show 'Ramayan'. in my opinion, Jan Jan me Ram is also Kan kan me Ram, because this entire universe is a Havan, and the universe revolves around the navel of Mahavishnu, in whose each and every particle there is a rhythm, a Nataraj. The whole creation moves in a rhythm and that rhythm is Ram in every kan, means particle. I say that this fortune that I and my son Shiva have got is due to the grace of all of you. Keep this grace on us. And one more thing I want to say, every son's duty is to carry forward the light and torch of what his father has done. Father's debt can never be repaid. Debts are not only of humans or parents, debts are also of birds, of air, of sky. The five elements also have debt. You cannot repay the debts , so who are you? Let me tell you that today I am sitting here talking to you people, where is this place? It is in Delhi , Delhi is in, India, India is in Asia, Asia is in the Earth, Earth is in Solar System, Solar System is in, Universe, universe is in the nebula, now where is the nebula? It is in the navel of Mahavishnu. Now just think, where am I, and who am I? So the whole creation that moves, moves in every detail because of Ram. So, the kan kan me Ram, should be Jan Jan me Ram. As in this divine event of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi ji. Today is a very blissful day, it is a divine day that he has made such a resolution and is taking forward the dream of Maharishi. Last week Yogi ji gave me an opportunity to meet him. He also has the same thinking, he talked to me about Nepal, talked to me about Bhaktpur. He said that Gandharva people still live there, Yaksha still live there. Gods and Goddesses live in a certain place and humans live in a certain place and in between there are Yakshas, Gandharvas. When I told him that Hanuman ji, who is called Maruti, he has 49 marus, Yogi ji said no Sir, there are not forty -nine marus, there are 48 marus. ? He has such vast knowledge. He is such a great person Yogi Adityanath ji and so in his destiny it is written to promote Ram Lalla. And all of you take a resolution that the temple should be built and Ram Raj should be carried . Jai Shri Ram. ,

Finally Prem Sagar ji said that Ram and Ramayana are invaluable sources of inspiration and guidance for all mankind.
