Jaya Jagannath,

Welcome to a spectacular week end at Sri Jagannath Temple. Sunday the 1st November, there are plans to organize a Bhajan Sandhya that will continue till early morning the 2nd followed by a procession taking the custom made boat ( Boita ) and sail the same at nearby Agara Lake on the auspicious occasion of Kartika Purnima or Boita Bandana. Kartika punima is the only day when Lord Jagannath temple remains open throughout the night and devotees are allowed to have darshan whole night. Remembering the ancient days when Sea traders ( Sadhabas ) from Orissa used to sail off to distant islands like Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Ceylon etc. using huge boats, women of their community were giving them a hearty send off on this day. The same tradition follows since then as custom rituals for Odia civilization.

Opportunity for Sponsorship of Life time assets at Sri Jagannath temple : Once again emerged are few more opportunities for devotees to donate or sponsor life time assets for Lord Jagannath Temple. Always at times of need, devotees have come up with excellent innovative ideas and helping hands to push forward and streamline day to day dwellings of Lord Jagannath Temple. The temple will always remain thankful to them for this. As of today, couple of things are required at the temple and we request kind hearted devotees to come forward and donate such assets and be among those special disciples of lord.

Stainless steel drums to store food grain stock : To cater Weekend prasad sevan programs, a months ration is fetched in advance and stored at temple stores. To further facilitate such storage of food grains we require two or three stainless steel rice drums.

A mechanical Tool kit : One can please donate a complete mechanical toolkit ( mainly containing electro mechanical handling parts ). This is something which is required on a daily basis for all time maintenance of fittings and provisions at the temple. Requesting someone to come forward and sponsor this life time asset to Temple.

Few CFL bulbs to replace all existing tube lights once they fuze : Sine years few tube lights are serving the temple, but also adding fat to our Electricity bill. To minimize Power consumption and ensure revenue saving, we request our devotees to please donate few CFLs

A water purifier : The Zero B Water purifier fitted earlier and that served for years together has gone beyond repairable condition now. To cater the huge demand of drinking water for devotees we request someone to please sponsor a heavy duty water purifier.

It is always more divine and of course more a wish of the lord to receive daily dwelling assets as special gifts from those special devotees than buying the same from temple funds. Hence we request all devotees to please come forward and sponsor for one or more of the above mentioned assets for Sri Jagannath Temple. Be the first to grab this opportunity, please call at 9343481599 and confirm your gift to the lord.

We Prey at the lotus feet of lord Jagannath to always keeps all his devotees happy, healthy, wealthy and luck full forever. Jaya Jagannath.

RegardsTeam Nilachakra
