Jagannatha Ratha Yatra 2025
Dear devotees of Lord Jagannatha and esteemed well-wishers,
Hare Krishna! With immense joy and gratitude, we extend our heartfelt invitation to you for the Jagannatha Ratha Yatra 2025 at Sagar Island, the sacred confluence of the Ganga and the Bay of Bengal. This divine festival is a rare opportunity to serve and receive the boundless mercy of Lord Jagannatha, Baladeva, and Subhadra by participating in their grand chariot procession.
We express our deepest gratitude to the dwipvasis (island residents), well-wishers, various government departments, and the police force for their unwavering support in organizing successful Ratha Yatras over the past years. With your assistance, this festival has become a symbol of spiritual unity, devotion, and joy, attracting nearly 50,000 devotees from across India and abroad. Participants experience divine bliss while pulling the sacred chariot, witnessing vibrant processions, and engaging in the ecstatic chanting of the holy names of Sri Hari.
Following the age-old traditions of Sri Kshetra Jagannatha Puri, preparations for the Ratha Yatra, including puja, chariot repairs, and decorations, will commence on Akshaya Tritiya, Wednesday, April 30, 2025.
