The Sri Jagannatha Ratha Yatra is an ancient and glorious festival of devotion, love, and community. Originating in Sri Kshetras, Puri, this sacred chariot procession represents the Lord's longing to visit His devotees. It is said that even a slight touch of the chariot's ropes or offering service during the procession clears lifetime karmic bonds and grants immense spiritual liberation.
Ananda Tirumala Devasthanam is bringing this grand celebration to Gachibowli, Hyderabad. Pulling the massive chariot, distributing sacred Mahaprasadam, and managing the path is only possible through the dedication of selfless volunteers. Come, step forward and participate in this transcendental legacy.
