UNIQUE RITUALS ASSOCIATED WITH Mahaprabhu SHREE JAGANNATH TEMPLE
#SAHIJATA :-
This festival is linked with Shrimandir.The locals dressed as characters of the Ramayana portray the complete Ramleela with a Odia twist.Only married Sevaks and in case of requirement,unmarried Sevaks of Shrimandir are allowed to portray these characters.Along with that,some other characters are also portrayed during Sahi Jata such as Naga,Medha,and Melas of different Sahis.If the Sahi Mukhya Is Ravana,then the people of that Sahi are also required to portray Panchasira,Saptasira,Nabashira,etc,who are the assistants of Ravana.The characters such as Ravana,Parshurama,Sahasrarjuna,Naga and Dashabatar do not wear a mask.They only use face makeup,Tati,and Bhuja and dance.The masked characters are Durga Medha,Mukha Medha Durga,Ganesha,Nursingha,Ardhanarishwar,Kali etc.But they are not linked with Shrimandir rituals.They participate voluntarily and move around the Sahi.They are called Baindhaiba in Puri's unique language.To potray a character,the people need to practice for a long period and receive training from expert Gurus.
The Melas which come from Jaga Gharas display different arts such as Badi Khela,Badi Bula,Khanda Khela,Khanda Bula,Malkham etc.
Seven Sahis participate in the Sahi Jata.The characters who are linked with Shrimandir rituals come in a procession and conduct the rituals.Every Sahi has a friendly rivalry with another.When one Sahi has to perform on a fixed date,the participants show their skills by going to their rival Sahi and vice versa.
On Chaitra Shukla Nabami,Kalikadebi Sahi is set to perform their Jata.They go to their Rival Sahi Matimandap Sahi.The main characters who go are Rama,Lakhmana Bharata and Shatrughna.Since the Rama Janma Niti would be already completed in Shrimandir,therefore they are not linked with Shrimandir.They visit their Rival Sahi,show their skills and return.
