Following the Bahuda Yatra, the Adhara Pana ritual, a significant offering to Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, and Devi Subhadra, is set to take place on Monday at the Singhadwara of the Jagannath Temple in Puri.


This sacred ritual involves offering a special drink, known as Pana, in uniquely crafted earthen pots placed up to the deities’ lips on their respective chariots. The offering is a cherished tradition that symbolises devotion and reverence.

As per traditional scriptures, the Adhara Pana is ideally performed on the Dashami Tithi after the chariots reach Singhadwara. However, due to time constraints, the ritual is often held on Ekadashi or Dwadasi Tithi. This year, it will take place on Dwadasi, with nine earthen pots used across the three chariots—three for each deity.

The preparation will begin after the Madhyana Dhoopa ritual on Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi. Ingredients such as chhachhi, cream, bananas, chhena, black pepper powder, camphor, and nutmeg are provided by the temple administration, Raghav Das Math, and Bada Odia Math. These will be placed on the chariots by the Mahasuar servitors. The earthen pots, shaped like gourds varying in size, will be positioned in front of the deities. Water for the Pana is sourced from a well near the Singhadwara Chhauni Math, carried in brass vessels by Paania Apata servitors, with temple staff ensuring its sanctity by preventing contact with the crowd.

During the ritual, Mahasuar servitors will prepare the Pana, while Palia Pushpalak servitors will hold new gamchhas (towels) in front of the pots, and a white cloth (jalikana) will be placed over each pot to filter the water. The ritual will conclude with a Panchopachara puja performed by Palia Puja Panda servitors.

The Adhara Pana ritual underscores the deep spiritual connection between the devotees and the deities, marking a significant moment in the Rath Yatra festivities.
