Puri Jagannath Rath Yatra 2025: Best wishes, messages, quotes, images, Facebook & Whatsapp status to share with your loved ones
Bhubaneswar, June 27 (IANS) A large crowd of devotees has gathered at Puri's Jagannath Temple for Lord Jagannath's Rath Yatra that will commence on Friday. Jagannath Rath Yatra, also known as the Chariot Festival or Shree Gundicha Yatra, is a major Hindu festival celebrated annually in Odisha.
One of the most revered and spectacular festivals in India, the Puri Jagannath Rath Yatra is celebrated with much joy and grandeur by devotees every year. The festival, which is rooted in deep spiritual tradition and centuries-old rituals, is celebrated in Puri, Odisha and it attracts hundreds of devotees from across the world.
The Puri Jagannath Rath Yatra, as the name suggests, marks the symbolic journey of Lord Jagannath, along with his siblings Balabhadra and Subhadra, from the main temple to the Gundicha Temple, which is their aunt's abode, in beautifully decorated, massive wooden chariots.
The Rath Yatra is not just a religious procession— it is a celebration of devotion, unity bringing devotees from across the world together, and a spiritual liberation.
It reflects the core Hindu belief that the divine resides among the people and journeys with them. The opportunity to pull the ropes of the Rath or chariots is considered a deeply auspicious act that washes away people's sins and brings the God's blessings.
Every detail of the event— from the creation of the chariots to the beating of drums and chanting of mantras— adds to its spiritual energy and grandeur, which is awe-inspiring.

Boat-chariot marks a unique festival in Odisha
BERHAMPUR: Kankan Shikhari, a small island near Nairi village in Chilika lake, celebrated Rath Yatra on Friday. Chariot pulling marks Rath Yatra of the holy Trinity in most temples but here at Kankan Shikhari, it is celebrated on water as a beautifully decorated boat-chariot, sails across the Chilika lake. The air reverberates with devotion as the trinity is taken on the chariot-boat, adorned with intricate designs and vibrant colours, gliding around the island. Divisional forest officer (wildlife) of Chilika Amlan Kumar Nayak said, while almost everywhere Rath Yatra is held on land, at Kankan Shikhari the journey takes place entirely on water. This celebration on water dates back to 1731, when Muslim ruler Taqi Khan invaded Srimandir in Puri after which idol of Lord Jagannath was secretly brought to this secluded islet in Chilika for safekeeping. The Lord was offered fruits from the native Kankan tree, and over time, the island came to be known as Kankan Shikhari. Since then, rituals associated with Lord Jagannath have continued here. This year, the yatra is being jointly coordinated by Sushant Kumar Sahu, head of the Kankan Shikhari Jagannath Trust (KSJT), Khurda SP Sagarika Nath, SDPO Sanjay Kumar Patnaik and Nachuni IIC Chandra Sekhar Jena, with active support from the local community. Free boat services were arranged from Nairi Ghat to ferry devotees to the island to witness the rare celebration. The KSJT also made elaborate arrangements for devotees, including distribution of prasad and ensuring safety protocols are followed.
