Please look at the link on the school website named ‘When you come back to school’ to help you explain the changes that may take place at school.

PRE: Snana Yatra – The appearance day of Lord Jagannath. Please view the link on the school website to further teach your child about Snana Yatra. On Friday 5th June 2020 it is the appearance day (Birthday) of Lord Jagannath. In school we bathe the deities of Lord Jagannath, Subhadra and Balabhadra to celebrate Lord Jagannath’s birthday. They get a bath in ‘Mango milkshake’ just like Lord Chaitanya and Nitiyanada do at Gaura Purnima. Lord Jagannath had so much fun at his Birthday bathing that he gets sick and must go inside the temple to recover. This takes 2 weeks and we celebrate him getting better with the celebration of Ratha Yatra. 1. Please make a card for Lord Jagannath to help him get better or to wish him a happy birthday. 2. Colouring in of Lord Jagannath (Please find the pages provided on the school website) Here is a short video clip of the celebrations that take place: Snana Yatra in Puri 2019 Literacy/Story: Pirates love underpants Pirates love underpants storybook When writing, it is important that the children are allowed to practice their phonic sounds and NOT copy your writing.

The presiding deities of Puri are Lord Jagannath, Goddess Subhadra and Lord Balabhadra, who all adorn the sanctum of Shri Jagannath Temple, Puri, the 12th century architectural marvel. Rath Yatra is the annual festival of presiding deities, who are taken on giant chariots (Rath) dragged by thousands of devotees. The celebration continues for 11 days during which period about two million of devotees congregate in the Holy Dham of Puri. Nabakalebar, the periodical ceremonial re-embodiment of the wooden idols of Lord Jagannath, Devi Subhadra, Lord Balabhadra and Lord Sudarshan, normally falls after a gap of 19 years though on certain occasions it takes place after a gap of 12 years.

  • Understanding the Return Ratha Yatra Part-01

    Understanding the Return Ratha Yatra Part-01

    Photo by Bhakta Charles By Madhavananda Das Part one: THE OPULENT ANSWER Many devotees ask how we are to understand the Ulṭā, or Bahudhā — return Ratha-yātrā in Jagannath Puri? If (as Gaudiya Vaishnavas state) we consider the Guṇḍicā-yatra, or Ratha-yātrā to respresent the ecstatic emotions of the residents of Vrindavan taking Krishna home from Kuruksetra. How do we then understand the return Ratha-yātrā? Is it a festival celebrating taking Krishna away from Vrindavan? There are two sides, two answers, that can be offered to this question. To understand them, one first needs to consider something about the nature of Sri Jagannath Puri Dham. In his book, The Embankment of Separation (chapter 7), Srila Prabhupada’s Orissan disciple, Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Maharaja describes Lord Jagannath and Puri as: aiśvarya-mādhurya yugala-milana — “The combination of both opulence and sweetness.” This point is substantiated by Srila Sanatan Goswami who writes in his Bṛhad-Bhāgavatāmṛta (2.5.212): śrī-kṛṣṇa-devasya sadā priyaṁ tat kṣetraṁ yathā śrī-mathurā tathaiva tat-pāramaiśvarya-bhara-prakāśa lokānusāri-vyavahāra-ramyam “Just as Mathura-Vrindavan is eternally dear to Sri Krishna, so too is his abode of Purushottam Kshetra Jagannath Puri. There in Puri, Krishna displays supreme opulence and while at the same time presents pastimes that are full of sweetness.” Understanding Return Ratha-yatra Page — 2 This may strike the learned readers as confusing, for in terms of siddhānta, there is a vast difference between the qualities of aiśvarya, opulence; and mādhurya, sweetness. When jñāna and aiśvarya, knowledge of the Lord’s opulence and position, are present then rati-saṅkucita — love is shrunken.

  • The Deities of New Vrindaban

    The Deities of New Vrindaban

    The Deities of New Vrindaban Aaron Boyd, Maggie Dorsten, Lauren Spartano, and Stephanie Villaire 1 Deity Worship in the Hare Krishna Faith Hare Krishna devotees make the distinction that they perform Deity worship and not idol worship. Madhudvisa dasa, a member of the New Vrindaban community, explains, “It is Krishna on the altar, not a stone statue or an idol. But unless our eyes are purified we can’t see Krishna, we think he is a statue…but he is Krishna. We worship Krishna, not a ‘form of Krishna’ or a ‘statue of Krishna’.” In other words, Krishna is so spiritual that He cannot be seen with the senses. Therefore, Krishna agrees to appear in the form of a Deity so that devotees can worship and make offerings to Him. More specifically, each day, the devotees cook seven meals for Krishna, bathe and dress Him, and chant and sing songs for Him. Deity Construction No hard and fast rules exist to govern the type of material from which the Deities must be constructed. A Deity (also known as a “murti”) can be made out of any type of material because devotees believe that Krishna can appear in any form. According to Madhudvisa dasa, “The Deity is made by a devotee, but the devotee doesn’t try to ‘make’ Krishna. He prays for Krishna to appear in the form of the Deity.” Installing Deities The question of whether or not to open a Hare Krishna center must be considered carefully before actions are taken. Once a Hare Krishna temple is installed, it is impossible to un-install the Deities within it.

The changing forest composition and cover can be closely linked to the growth and change of civilizations. Over the years, as man progressed the forest began gradually depleting. The growing population and man’s dependence on the forest have been mainly responsible for this. In 1840, the British colonial administration promulgated an ordinance called Crown Land (Encroachment) Ordinance. This ordinance targeted forests in Britain’s Asian colonies, and vested all forests, wastes, unoccupied and uncultivated lands to the crown. Odisha is known as the land of LordJagannath due to unflinching faith of general populace of the State in the deity. The world-famous Ratha Yatra (Car Festival) of LordJagannath, Purl is the most important festival and is being celebrated since time immemorial in the grandest manner, in accordance with the ancient prescribed rituals and rites. The Ratha Yatra of Lord Lingaraj at Bhubaneswar is also equally important and both the Ratha Yatras have been accorded the status of states festivals.

    A Study of Patta Painting in Orissa

    JASO 29/3 (1998): 197-211 FOLK ART AT THE CROSSROADS OF TRADITION AND MODERNITY: A STUDY OF PATTA PAINTING IN ORISSA MAMA TA TRIPA THY P ATTA painting, or patta chitra, is one of the typical regional arts of the coastal state of Orissa in eastern India. Like any other form of painting, irrespective of time and space, it possesses its own set of meanings and purposes. In particular, it expresses some of the religious and mythological aspects of Oriya culture, focus­ ing on the Hindu epics in general, the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, and the Jagannath cult in particular. Patta painting is of linear design, vegetable pigments being applied to a spe­ ciaJIy prepared cloth using a brush. Although overtly religious, it does not simpJy express a set of religious ideas or values and is much more than a merely visual art to be looked at and be appreciated: it expresses a whole set of beliefs and practices relating to life and death held by the artisans themselves. Traditionally it was prac­ tised only by the Chitrakara caste as their caste occupation. However, although it has retained its basic characteristics, it has been affected by the advent of science and technology as well as other aspects of modernization in the twentieth century. This has had an impact in terms of technology, the materials used, commercializa­ tion, and the use of the craft. To some extent, therefore, patta painting is at the 198 Mamata Tripathy crossroads of tradition and modernity, a situation that heralds a uncertain future for the craft.
