Mystery of Jagganath Ratha Yatra festival
Hare Krishna šš
Lord Krishna in the vigraha form Sri Radha assume the form of lord Jagganath. It is Radha viraha vigraha
Lord Chaitanya is Krishna Himself, in the separation mood of ÅrÄ« Radha.
So during Jagannathās Rathaāyatra, it is Lord Krishna Himself, in the mood of Radharani, who pulls His own form as Jagannath.
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu ā in the mood of Radhaās separation, Krishna placed Jagannath, Baladeva, and Subhadra on the chariot and brought Them to Vrindavan, pulling the chariot along with the gopas and gopÄ«s.
Because Krishna had promised to return to Vrindavan but did not come back, after 100 years ā after the Mahabharata war ā the people of Vrindavan brought Him back.
This is the true meaning of Rathaāyatra.
In Kaliāyuga, 500 years ago, Krishna Himself accepted the form of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the embodiment of Radhaās separation, and He performed the same divine pastime again.
Even today, the Lord continues this lÄ«lÄ.
All the souls who wander in ghostly or lower species and cannot come to the temple are gathered under the Ratha chariot (the ceremonial canopy).
After the yatra ends, the water pot breaks the water inside the kalasha sanctified water is given to them to drink, by which they are liberated.
This is the hidden mystery of the Ratha āyatra.whoever even chanadal the dog eaters see the lord Jagganath sitting on Ratha never take birth again please attain any Ratha yatra near to you or take online Darshan.
