'Snana Yatra' (Bathing Festival) : A very special and sacred festival of Lord Jagannath held in the full-moon day of the month of Jyestha. This festival is known as 'Devasnan Purnima' or 'Snana Yatra' (Bathing Festival). According to Skanda Purana when King Indradyumna installed the wooden deities he arranged this bathing ceremony. On the previous day of Snana Yatra the images of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra along with the image of Sudarshana are ceremonially brought out from the inner sanctum of the main temple in a procession (called 'Pahandi' in local language) to the Snana Mandapa (Bathing pandal).

This bathing platform is situated to the north-east of Ananda Bazar and besides the outer wall of the temple (called Meghanada Pacheri in local Odia language). The length and breadth of this bathing platform are 76 feet. It is at such a height that visitors standing outside the temple also get a clear view of the Deities. On this auspicious day, the Suaras and Mahasuaras go in a ceremonial procession to fetch 108 pots of water from the Golden well (called 'Suna Kua' in local Odia language). The holy water is drawn from this well once a year. 

During the entire process, all of them cover their mouths with a piece of cloth so as not to contaminate it even with their breath. Then all the pots filled with water are preserved in the Bhoga Mandap. Then the priests purify the water with Haladi (turmeric), Java (whole rice), Sandal (Chandan), flowers and perfumes. The filled and purified water pots then carried from Bhoga Mandap to the bathing platform by the Suaras in a long single line queue. This ritual is called 'Jalabhisheka'. 'Jalabhishek' consists of two words 'Jala' and 'Abhisheka'. In our local language 'Jala' means water and 'Abhishek' means Bath. This Abhiseka is accompanied by chanting of Vedic mantras by the priests, kirtana and blowing of conch shells. At evening, after the bath ritual, the Deities assume the special elephant form which is otherwise known as 'Hati Vesha'. Lord Jagannatha and Lord Balaram dressed like an elephant, and Goddess Subhadra wears a lotus flower vesha.

After Snana Yatra, the deities are supposed to fall ill (fever) and do not return to their pedestal. The Deities are kept on a special sick room called the 'Ratan vedi' inside the temple. They stay away from the public view for a period of 15 days. This period is known as 'Anasara   
('...Anasara, a derivative of the Sanskrit word "Anabasara", literally means vacation. Every year after the holy Snana Yatra, the triad images, without the Sudarshana Chakra, are taken to a secret altar named Anavasara Ghar (also known as Anasara pindi, 'pindi' is Oriya term meaning "platform" ) where they remain for the next fortnight of (Krishna paksha); devotees are not allowed to view these images. Instead, devotees go to the nearby Brahmagiri to see the Lord in the four-handed form of Alarnath, a depiction of Vishnu.Devotees then get the first glimpse of the Lord only on the day before Ratha Yatra, which is called Navayouvana. It is a local belief that the gods suffer from fever after taking an elaborate ritual bath, and they are treated by the special servants, the Daitapatis, for 15 days. Daitapatis perform special nitis (rites) known as Netrotchhaba (a rite of painting the eyes of the triad). During this period cooked food is not offered to the deities.........)
During Anasara the Deities offered only fruits and water mixed with cheese and Dasamula medicines to cure of fever. The Deities are treated by the Raj Vaidya (the King's physician) with specific medicines (Dasamulas). During all these days the daily rites of the temple remain suspended. Due to the sacred bath with 108 pitchers of water, the colours painted on the images fade out. 

The Daitas repaint the images with new colors and on the 16th day, the Deities appear in their new forms after coloration become ready for the public view. The festival of the first appearance of the Lord Jagannath to his devotees is called 'Netrotsava' (festival for the eyes) or 'Nava Yauvanotsava' (festival of the ever new youth).

 The biggest annual hindu festival Rath Yatra (chariot festival) of the Jagannath Temple, attracting lakhs of pilgrims from across the country and abroad. Puri’s Rath Yatra is an annual celebration, marking the annual journey of the deities from the 15th century Jagannath Temple in the chariots to the temple of Devi Gundicha (their aunt). The celebration ends nine days later with Bahuda Yatra (return journey to their temple). The 3-km-long Bada Danda (grand road) between the Jagannath Temple and Gundicha Temple is jam-packed with pilgrims. The three mag-antic colorfully decked up wooden chariots of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra have been kept ready in the morning near the temple on the Bada Danda ready to be pulled by ropes by thousands of devotees, amid tight security. 

The chariots will roll on Bada Danda in the afternoon after ‘Pahandi Bije’, the ritual of installing the idols their vehicles. The chariots of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra are called Nandighosha, Taladhwaja and Dabadalana respectively. Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath is one of the largest festivals of India. Now it is not just limited to the borders of our nation but it is hugely celebrated outside India also. Iconic cities of the world like San Francisco, London, Los Angeles, Tokyo and even the remote corners of Russia celebrate Rath Yatra in its full glory. Read more about Rath Yatra :
