The term also refers to the popular annual Ratha Yatra of Puri that involve a public procession with a chariot with deities Jagannath (Vishnu avatar), Balabhadra (his brother), Subhadra (his sister) and Sudarshana Chakra (his weapon) on a ratha, a wooden deula-shaped chariot.
Ratha Yatra processions have been historically common in Vishnu-related (Jagannath, Rama, Krishna) traditions and Shiva-related traditions in Hinduism across India and goddesses in Nepal, with Tirthankaras in Jainism, as well as tribal folk religions found in the eastern states of India.
Notable Ratha Yatras in India include the Ratha Yatra of Puri, the Dhamrai Ratha Yatra in Bangladesh and the Ratha Yatra of Mahesh.
Hindu communities outside India, celebrate Ratha Yatra such as those associated with Jagannath, Krishna, Shiva and Mariamman.
According to Knut Jacobsen, a Ratha Yatra has religious origins and meaning, but the events have a major community heritage, social sharing and cultural significance to the organizers and participants.
