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. The last Nabakalebar of the deities took place in the year-1996. Due to improvement of infrastructure including road and railway connectivity to Puri, more than five million congregation was anticipated during Nabakalebar-2015. Keeping in view the safety, security, law and order and traffic management of mega festival, Nabakalebar-2015, elaborate Police arrangements were made by the Odisha Police for this occasion.

  • Bhagavad Gita:The Shivaratri and the Story of Lord Shiva
    International Gita Society [Home] Other sites on Lord Shiva: SIVASAHASRANAMA The Greatness of Lord Shiva Lord Shiva More on Shiva Introduction The Story of King Chitrabhanu Spiritual Significance of the Ritual Lord Shiva's Assuarance Introduction This falls on the 13th (or 14th) day of the dark half of Phalgun (February-March). The name means "the night of Shiva". The ceremonies take place chiefly at night. This is a festival observed in honour of Lord Shiva. Shiva was married to Parvati on this day. People observe a strict fast on this day. Some devotees do not even take a drop of water. They keep vigil all night. The Shiva Lingam is worshipped throughout the night by washing it every three hours with milk, curd, honey, rose water, etc., whilst the chanting of the Mantra Om Namah Shivaya continues. Offerings of bael leaves are made to the Lingam. Bael leaves are very sacred as, it is said, Lakshmi resides in them. Hymns in praise of Lord Shiva, such as the Shiva Mahimna Stotra of Pushpadanta or Ravana's Shiva Tandava Stotra are sung with great fervour and devotion. People repeat the Panchakshara Mantra, Om Namah Shivaya. He who utters the Names of Shiva during Shivaratri, with perfect devotion and concentration, is freed from all sins. He reaches the abode of Shiva and lives there happily. He is liberated from the wheel of births and deaths. Many pilgrims flock to the places where there are Shiva temples. The Story of King Chitrabhanu In the Shanti Parva of the Mahabharata, Bhishma, whilst resting on the bed of arrows and discoursing on Dharma, refers to the observance of Maha Shivaratri by King Chitrabhanu.

  • Maha Shivaratri
    Maha Shivaratri Maha Shivaratri (Maha Shivratri, Maha Sivaratri, Shivaratri, Sivaratri) is a festival that is dedicated to the worship Lord Shiva on the 13th or 14th day of the Hindu month of Maagha or Phalguna. The festival usually occurs in the month of February or March and is observed for one day and night only. The festival of 'Maha Shivratri' which literally translates to 'the greatest night of Shiva' is one of the most splendidly celebrated festivals across India. But, why is Shivratri celebrated? There is more than one Mahashivaratri story surrounding this occasion. Here are a few: • One is that Lord Shiva married Parvati on this day. So, it is a celebration of this sacred union. • Another is that when the Gods and demons churned the ocean together to obtain ambrosia that lay in its depths, a pot of poison emerged. Lord Shiva consumed this poison, saving both the Gods and mankind. The poison lodged in the Lord’s throat, turning him blue. To honor the savior of the world, Shivratri is celebrated. • One more legend is that as Goddess Ganga descended from heaven in full force, Lord Shiva caught her in his matted locks, and released her on to Earth as several streams. This prevented destruction on Earth. As a tribute to Him, the Shivalinga is bathed on this auspicious night. • Also, it is believed that the formless God Sadashiv appeared in the form of a Lingodhbhav Moorthi at midnight. Hence, people stay awake all night, offering prayers to the God. A student's experience of celebrating Maha Shiviratri I came from Mauritius and Maha Shivaratri is celebrated during the new moon and during this period of time most Hindus will start there pilgrimage to the sacred lake of Ganga Talao located in Grande Bassin.
