Pati dian for shri jagannath Mahaprabhus “Anavasar Times”

Pati Dian for Shri Jagannath Mahaprabhu’s Anavasara: Observe the Sacred Period

During the Anavasara period in Puri (June 22nd to July 5th), Shri Jagannath Mahaprabhu and his siblings are not worshipped in their usual forms. Instead, devotees observe this sacred time with the ritual worship of Pati Dian.

What is Pati Dian?

Pati Dian are small, symbolic representations of the deities used during Anavasara. They are typically placed on a plate or “pati” and worshipped with devotion. This year, observe the Anavasara period with reverence and participate in this unique tradition.

Significance of Anavasara and Pati Dian:

• Time of Rest and Renewal: Anavasara is a period when the deities are believed to be resting and rejuvenating after the Ratha Yatra.
• Symbolic Worship: Pati Dian represents the presence of the deities during their absence, allowing devotees to continue their spiritual practice.
• Deepening Devotion: Observing Anavasara with Pati Dian fosters a deeper connection with Lord Jagannath and his siblings.

How to Observe Anavasara with Pati Dian:

• Place the Pati Dian on a clean plate or “pati.”
• Offer prayers, bhajans, and light a diya (lamp) in front of the Pati Dian.
• Maintain a clean and sacred space for the Pati Dian.
• After July 5th, respectfully immerse the Pati Dian in water.

Embrace this sacred period and connect with the divine grace of Lord Jagannath through the worship of Pati Dian.
