Why Hanumanji is bound by chains in Jagannath Puri??!!

Jagannath Puri dham is located on the shore of Bay of Bengal. And in the city we have the world famous temple of MahaPrabhu Jagannath, the Prabhu of the entire universe. ImageImage
It is said that as the mandir is near the sea so the water of the sea used to enter the city and upto the temple bringing discomfort to the devotees. Once Varuna wanted to take darshan of the Prabhu so he went to the temple and as a result the city got flooded.
The residents wanted there should be someone who could prevent the water from the sea entering the mandir. Now who could do this herculean task. It is but natural that MahaPrabhu Jagannath turned towards Hanuman who during the time of Prabhu Rama

WHAT IS ANASARA PATTI ?
During the bathing festival of Mahaprabhu Shree Jagannath (Deva Snana Purnima) the Sri Jiews of the temple have a bath with 108 pots of cold water to fight the heat of summer.

#Jagannath 🙏🏼🚩
⬇️
After this royal bath ceremony the three Jiews are sick and they stay away from the public view for a period of 15 days. This period is known as 'Anasara' or 'Anavasara' period commences from Jyestha purnima and ends with Ashadha amavasya.
⬇️
During these days the Sri Jiews stay away from the public view and there is a need for substitute images for the public and to whom daily rituals can be offered at temple, so during this time three patta paintings of Sri Jagannath, Sri Balabhadra & Maa Subhadra are worshipped

జగన్నాథ రథయాత్ర - పురుషోత్తమ దేవుడు - పద్మావతిల పరిణయం - వరదరాజమ్మ

14-16వ శతాబ్దంలో కటకం రాజధానిగా పాలించారు గజపతులు. కటకం నుండి కావేరి వరకు బంగాళాఖాత తీర ప్రాంతం ఒకప్పుడు వీరి ఎలుబడిలో ఉండేది.
గజపతులు తమను తాము పూరీ జగన్నాథుని దాసులుగా భావించేవారు. #RathaJatra #RathaYatra
అందుకు సూచనగా రథ యాత్ర సమయంలో రాజు జగన్నాథ, బలభద్ర, సుభద్రాదేవి ల రథాన్ని ఊడ్చే సంప్రదయం ఉంది. ఈ సంప్రదాయాన్ని 'చేర పహారా' అంటారు
పురుషోత్తమ దేవ మహారాజు అతిగొప్ప గజపతిరాజుల్లో ఒకరు. కంచి రాజ్య యువరాణి పద్మావతి. ఆమెను పెండ్లాడాలని తలచిన పురుషోత్తమదేవుడు కంచి రాజుకు కబురు పంపాడు
రాజే స్వయంగా చీపురు పట్టే 'చేర పహారా ' సంప్రదాయం గురించి తెలుసుకున్న కంచి రాజు తన కుమార్తెను ఒక 'పనివాడికి' ఇవ్వడానికి ఒప్పుకోడు. విషయం తెలుసుకున్న పురుషోత్తమ దేవుడు ఇది తనకు, తన రాజ్యానికి ముఖ్యంగా తాము కొలిచే దేవుళ్ళకు అవమానంగా భావించాడు.

"Do they kill themselves beneath the wheels of the Juggernaut? Do the people of India throw their children into the jaws of the crocodiles?". These were some of the routine questions that were put to Swami Vivekananda in his lectures in the US during 1893-95 for many months.
Such was the picture about India and Hindus that the Christian Missionaries had created among the American public. If you didn't know it already, Juggernaut here refers to the chariot of Lord Jagannath.
In the current English, Juggernaut is a commonly used metaphor to denote a merciless, destructive, and unstoppable killing machine - an allusion to the '"ritual suicide of the foolish and superstitious heathens in front of their Satanic deity's chariot".

#THREAD : I am in favour of Rath Yatra!

Since time immemorial we have been following the customs and traditions and slowly they have become part and parcel of our life. These determine the essence around which our values revolve. But someday all of a sudden when these 1/9 Image
customs are questioned by the supreme highest law bidding authority then where shall we express our views?

Whom shall we contact? The supreme court of India has put a restriction on conducting Lord Jagannath procession in Odisha with the rationality that the people can't 2/9
stop themselves from visiting Rath Yatra and gathering of any kind will explode the pandemic further. But what I enquire is, why our law governing body cannot ban religious ceremony of any other religion? I am a sensible citizen who respects the law and order of our country 3/9

SC has stalled the holiest, oldest annual festival of #RathYatra of #jagannathpuri & all religious activities related to it at the last moment.

The PIL was filed by an NGO Odisha Vikas Parishad.

Why Indian NGOs, Secular Courts interfere Hindu festivals?
#RathaYatraShouldNotStop
Why does Secular State Gov, Secular courts & NGOs keep interfering in our Hindu festivals & years old traditions?

Everyone knew about #Covid19 than why SC gave decision at last moment?

Months of efforts of 100s of Artisans become useless.

#RathaYatraShouldNotStop
How fair it is to put a stay at last moment on #RathYatra2020 instead of finding alternative option to carry out years old ritual of Baghwan #Jagannath w/o devotee participation?

1. Here are a few important clarifications on yesterday's Order of d SC in the #Jagannath Puri Temple Petition. It is not a "judgement", it is only an order at this point.The recommendations of the District Judge wrt Jagannath Temple are not final. Read Para 5 of order
2. The media,especially Deccan Chronicle,is distorting yesterday's Order to give d impression that d SC has directed that non-Hindus also be allowed entry into #Jagannath Temple subject to certain conditions.This is untrue.D Order clearly says it is a mere suggestion to consider
3. All stakeholders to Temple Management have the opportunity to now present their views to the Amicus Mr. Gopal Subramanium and the Committee to the constituted by the Union Government. This is the time to impress upon the Government to #FreeOurTemples.
