Puri: After having a lavish bath on Snana Purnima, Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra will be kept away from public darshan for about 14-days.<\/p>\n
It is believed that the deities fall sick with fever and isolate for two weeks till Rath Yatra.<\/p>\n
The deities, Lord Balabhadra, Devi Subhadra and Lord Jagannath, are kept in the \u2018Anasara Pindi\u2019 where they are \u2018treated\u2019 with natural herbal medicines, and \u2018Phuluri Oil\u2019 (special herbal oil).<\/p>\n
The ailing deities are only offered only fruits and water, mixed with cheese and \u2018Dasamula\u2019 (herbal) medicines while \u2018Daitapati\u2019 Sevayats now perform secret rituals to cure them.<\/p>\n
However, during these 14 days the traditional Pattachitra paintings of the three deities are worshiped as the doors of the \u2018Garbha Gruha\u2019 (sanctum sanctorum) are closed.<\/p>\n
As per the tradition, the \u2018Phuluri oil\u2019 with which lord Jagannath and his siblings are treated with gets prepared by the Bada Odia Matha every year. The oil is prepared by mixing several fragrant flowers, sandalwood powder, Bena Chera, fragrant rice and Camphor.<\/p>\n
The preparation starts on the occasion of \u2018Hera Panchami\u2019, the fifth day of the Rath Yatra every year and after being stored under the ground for almost a year gets handed over to the temple authorities for use.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
