The Bhoomi Pooja of the much-awaited Ayodhya Ram Mandir has brought a wave of happiness and harmony among the people. The Bhoomi Pooja is scheduled to begin on 5 August 2020 and for this, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay the brick of the foundation of the temple. As per reports, people of Ayodhya will be welcoming Lord Rama by banging plates outside their houses. Moreover, people will be lighting Diyas in their houses as well as the temple to welcome Lord Rama at his birthplace.
We can easily feel that people are quite eager for the Bhoomi Poojan of Ayodhya Ram Mandir. Those who don't know what Bhoomi Pooja is can read this article to read more.
What Is Bhoomi Pooja
Bhoomi Pooja is a ritual performed by people when they first start the construction or agriculture work on the land. The Puja is performed to worship Goddess Bhoomi, the deity of earth and soil along with Vastu Purush, the deity of direction. The purpose of performing Bhoomi Pooja is to eradicate all the Vastu dosh and evil effects from the land on which the agriculture or construction work is to be performed. The pooja is performed by the owner of the land. The pooja is intended for seeking forgiveness from Mother Earth and Nature for uprooting the living organisms dwelling in that land.

Who Performs The Pooja
The pooja is usually performed by the head of the house or the owner of the land. If the owner of the land isn't married, then the head of the family will sit in the pooja. It is usually a married couple who performs the pooja along with a learned and experienced priest. It is important to understand that Shilanyas or bricklaying is different from Bhoomi Poojan. The former is basically a part of the Bhoomi Pooja.
