Snana Yatra or Snan Yatra, or Debasnana Purnima is a spiritually significant and visually captivating festival that attracts thousands of pilgrims, especially to Puri, Odisha. It takes place every year on the full moon day of the Jyeshtha month. The central highlight is the ritualistic bath of the idols of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, and Goddess Subhadra. These deities are brought out from the sanctum of the Jagannath Temple in a grand procession to the Snana Mandap. There, they are ceremonially bathed with 108 pitchers of sacred water. This act symbolises divine rejuvenation and is considered a rare opportunity for devotees to have darshan. Snana Yatra 2025 is on Wednesday, June 11. To celebrate Debasnana Purnima, share these Snana Yatra 2025 greetings, HD images, Snan Yatra messages, wishes and wallpapers with your friends and family.

Following the Snan Yatra, the deities are believed to suffer from illness due to the prolonged bathing, and thus they are hidden from public view for about fifteen days, during which time the temple doors remain closed. This phase is known as 'Anavasara'. Devotees believe the gods are recuperating under the care of temple physicians. This tradition, unique to Jagannath worship, humanizes the divine and strengthens the emotional bond between the deity and the devotee. The deities' temporary absence builds anticipation for the famous Rath Yatra, when they reappear in grand procession on massive chariots.

Apart from its religious value, Snan Yatra is a cultural and communal celebration. The event is rich in traditional music, attire, rituals, and food, turning Puri into a vibrant hub of festivities. It offers a blend of devotion and social gathering, where families come together to celebrate. Temples in other parts of India also observe the day with rituals and idol bathing, though not as grand as in Puri. The Snan Yatra reminds us of the cyclical rhythm of life, the power of renewal, and the deep-rooted traditions that continue to thrive in Indian spiritual life.
