Author :Shubham Sharma
The temple is of maximum importance to the Hindu devotees as it is one of the Char-Dham Pilgrimages of Hindu Religion. It's construction was over in the year 1078 A.D, and Jagannath Puri Temple Emerged as one of the mightiest architecture of the world. Millions of people visit Odisha to gain Lord Jagannath blessings.It took three generations worth of time and hard work to raise up the humongous walls of the famous Puri's Jagannath Temple located in Odisha
The temple is famous for its annual Rath Yatra which is witnessed and worshipped by billions of hindus all around the world. The English word Juggernaut shares its origin from this annual parade happening since thousands of years. But that's not the only specialty of the place!
Some Unnatural and mysterious activities without any scientific explanations have caught the travelers eye worldwide. Here are some of these mind boggling facts about the temple which may leave you with extreme Goosebumps and curiosity:
The Holy Flag :
Even a kid knows that Normally, The flag or any piece of cloth flows in the direction of wind but the flag mounted on the top of the Jagannath Temple is a unique exception to the principle. This particular flag flows in the opposite direction to the wind's course while the science is still confused how it happens ?
Every day a priest scrambles the walls of the temple with a height equivalent a well build tower to change the flag atop the temple's dome. This ritual dates far back to the day the temple was built. The practice is done with bare hands without any protection at all. It's believed if the ritual is skipped one day from the calendar, the temple will be shut down for next 18 years. This is indeed a game of Facts
Vs Belief.
Death of Head Priest
Every 12th year the deities of 3 god are changed, the Process takes place on the basis of the dream seen by the head Priest of the temple. It is said that lord Jagannath comes in his dream and tell him the secret wood/metals and materials available on a secret site. Lord directs him to bring the material and rebuild the 3 holy deities. once the rebuilding process is over the Head Priest dies and it is itself is a miracle. Though we never had a significant proof for the same but it is happening since ages according to believers.
Yes, you read right ! there is no shadow of Puri Jagannath's holy Temple. After many Researches and studies took place , science is still unable to yield a convincing reason for the same. Lets not call it a Unidentified mystery, Lets call it a God's Miracle.
There are Multiple mysteries present at the top of the temple in the form of the Sudarshan Chakra. The first confusion revolves around the fact that how the hard metal weighing about a hundred KGs, just got up there without any machinery just with a human force of that century. Another Mystery associated with the holy chakra is : From every direction you look, the Chakra looks back with the same appearance.It is still a big challenge for all those 3D or 4D Architects and designers to match such excellence.
Nothing can be Above God,So No creature fly above the dome.
The sky is the bird's home. But, this particular area is unnatural and not a good idea for birds to rest, not even a single bird is encountered above the temple dome, even an airplane could not be seen hovering above the temple.Still it is an unsolved mystery that what is the force which is restricting birds to rest over the dome or fly over the same.
In Hindu mythology, wasting food indeed a sin; the Temple people follows the same. A total number of people visiting the temple varies between 2,000 to 2, 00,000 people every day. Miraculously, the Parsadam prepared every day is never wasted, not even a bite. Is it an effective management or the Lord's miracle?
In minutes, after you put the first step inside the temple from Singha Dwara entrance, the audibility to the ocean waves's is totally lost.Again, no scientific explanation give clarity for this fact. The sound returns when you leave the temple.
According to the local people , it was the will of the Shree Subhadra Mayi, the sister of the two lords who wished for serenity and silence within the temple gates. Hence her will is the ultimate reason and duly fulfilled by the lord's miracle.
According to the law of nature on daytime the breeze from sea comes to land and the opposite happens in the evening. But, in Puri, the wind has a tendency to contradict and opt for the exact opposite direction. In the daytime, the breeze blows from land to sea and the opposite in the evening happens.
The traditional way to cook the Parsadam is Implemented by the priests here. Exactly seven pots are mounted over one another and are cooked using firewood. Surprisingly, the top most pot is cooked first, and the rest follows the same order! The most Amazing and astonishing fact is the bottom most pot as it is the one in the end in which no food is cooked , even though it was nearest to fire.
The deities are buried from every 12 to 18 years, one above another, replaced by new ones once the dream comes to the Head priest. These deities are made up of metal and wood and are believe to be disintegrated on their own. This happening is completely out of the reach of the modern science as no science can justify this miracle.
Well All we can say is miracles and science are two different things.There are millions of places in world of universe where science is unanswerable, Jagannath puri is also one of those. let us keep exploring the unexplored. see you in the next blog. Jai Jagannath !
