CM Majhi among lakhs witness Lord Jaggannath's bathing rituals
The Political and Business Daily
|June 12, 2025
BRAVING hot and humid weather, lakhs of devotees, including Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi, gathered here on Wednesday to witness Lord Jagannath's ceremonial bathing rituals, held in an open pandal on the premises of the 12th-century temple.
Earlier in the morning, the three deities of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra were brought to the 'Snana Mandap' (bathing altar) with a ceremonial 'pahandi' (procession).
Shree Sudarshan, considered the "wheel weapon" of Lord Bishnu, also accompanied the trinity, officials of the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) said, adding that the 'Pahandi' ritual was completed by 9 am.
Amid chanting of 'slokas', 108 pitchers of sacred and scented water fetched from 'Suna Kua' (golden well) inside the temple premises were poured on the deities.
While 35 pitchers of water were poured on Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra were bathed in 33 and 22 pitchers of water, respectively.
