The temple has announced a temporary closure for public darshan for one hour due to Mahaprabhu undergoing a Maha Snana. This ritual was necessitated by a splinter found near the inner wood of the temple during evening prayers, prompting the temple administration to perform the purification ceremony.
Reason for Maha Snana: Incidents like blood spatter, death, or vomiting within the temple premises trigger this ritual.
- Procedure: Mahaprabhu is bathed, the temple is cleaned, the affected area is washed, and lime is applied for purification.
- Alternative Darshan: Devotees can view the Parswa Deity during this period.
- Resumption of Darshan: Public darshan will resume after the Great Bath and purification rituals are completed.
SignificanceThe Maha Snana is a purification ritual performed to maintain the temple's sanctity and ritualistic cleanliness, reflecting the importance of spiritual purity in Hindu traditions.
