The Snana Purnima rituals mark the beginning of the world famous Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath.
After the Snana Yatra, the deities will be kept away from public view for 15 days and this temporary disappearance is called the ‘Anasara’ period. It is said that after the ritualistic bath, the deities develop fever and therefore do not return to the sanctum sanctorum.
