The grand Jagannath Rath Yatra will be held in Puri on June 27, 2025. A unique tradition involves offering Neem powder to Lord Jagannath alongside the 56 offerings (Chhappan Bhog). According to legend, an elderly woman who loved the Lord like her son brought Neem powder to prevent stomach pain from heavy meals. After temple guards insulted her, the Lord appeared in the King's dream, ordering him to accept the offering. This tradition symbolizes the pure emotional bond between the deity and the devotee, proving that God values devotion over expensive offerings. https://www.bhaktvatsal.com/blog/jagannath-rath-yatra-rassi-ko-chune-ka-mahatva-katha-hindi #creator program
