Hera Panchami Puja

Aarati of Goddess Vimala/ Shakti / Goddess Durga

A Bivhuti comes from Goddess Vimala For Goddess Lakshmi

– Goddess Lakshmi sits in the Palinki / Palanquin and leaves the temple through the back doorway in hiding

This is because it has been five days and Shree Jagannatha has not returned back to temple

– Goddess Lakshmi finds the Rath

The Goddess ask the Rath 3 times where Lord Jagannatha is , upon getting the same reply that the Rath is just a vehicle for the Lord and is unaware of the whereabouts of the Lord the 4 th time she breaks a part of the Rath in anger.

-Goddess Lakshmi arrives at Gundicha Mandir and seeing the Lord enjoying delicious Prasad gets more angrier.

– a mala/ garland that The Lord would have worn since morning will be given to the Goddess to pacify her anger and some Prasad

While this is going on the Bivhuti of Goddess Vimala that Goddess Lakshmi has will be sprinkled on Lord Jagannatha

 – Goddess Lakshmi goes back to the main temple

– Prasad offering and Aarti
