Ayodhya Temple should be built on lines of Cambodia’s Angkor Wat: Swami Swaroopanand

The Shankaracharya while welcoming the Supreme Court’s five-judge unanimous verdict on Ayodhya, had objected to the direction to give five acres land to Muslims for building the mosque.

The Shankaracharya of Jyotish and Sharda Dwarka Peeth, Swami Swaroopanand Saraswati said on Wednesday that the Ram Temple in Ayodhya should be built on the lines of world-famous Angkor Wat Temple of Cambodia.

“The grand temple was built in the 11th century there and the same temple is one of the most frequented religious places in the world. When the path is now clear for building the temple in Ayodhya, then the grand temple in Ayodhya should be on the lines of the grand temple in Cambodia,” the Hindu seer told journalists at his Ashram in Narsinghpur district of Madhya Pradesh.

While showing the picture of Angkor Wat Temple of Cambodia, the Ram temple will not be built again and again in Ayodhya. “Since it will be built only once, it should be built by competent and deserving people and must be grand and large just like the world-famous temple of Cambodia.”
