आज अयोध्या के साथ-साथ पूरा बिहार भी श्रीराम की भक्ति में डूबा हुआ है। हर मंदिर में श्रीराम के जयकारे लग रहे हैं और अष्टयाम और भजन की कार्यक्रम भी चल रहे हैं। पटना के महावीर मंदिर में अखंड कीर्तन चल रहा है और वहां 11 सौ दीप भी जलाए जाएंगे। इस्कॉन मंदिर में भी एक लाख दीप जलाए जाएंगे। बिहार के हर जिले में उत्सव जैसा माहौल है और लोग रामलला के आगमन को दिवाली के रूप में मना रहे हैं। भगवा ध्वज और भगवा झंडे भी शहर और गांव में लगाए गए हैं। भक्तजन गंगा में स्नान कर रहे हैं और पंडित महाआरती भी करेंगे।
