Auspicious signs gather as Ram enters his city. Flowers descend from heaven, turning the air above Ayodhya into a fragrant canopy of blessing.
The gods sound celestial drums. Divine maidens dance in rapture and send sweet songs of celebration across the sky, answering the music rising from the streets below.
Earth and heaven do not remain separate witnesses. Human welcome rises through banners, lamps, instruments, and eager faces, while the unseen world answers with flower, rhythm, and dance. The homecoming becomes a meeting of realms around the Lord whose presence gives both their joy.
Flowers, drums, and celestial dance make the sky itself part of Ayodhya's welcome.
