Every year, a crowd of lakhs of people from India and abroad gather during the Rath Yatra in Puri, Odisha to get a glimpse of Lord Jagannath. While traveling in Puri, Lord Shri Krishna, his brother Balabhadra and sister Subhadra ride on a chariot and go on a tour of the city and know the well-being of their subjects. It is clearly stated in Skanda Purana that the person who goes to Gundicha Nagar while chanting the name of Shri Jagannath in the Rath Yatra, becomes free from the bondage of rebirth. The person who joins the Rath Yatra chanting the name of God, all his wishes are fulfilled. All the problems related to children go away just by participating in the Rath Yatra.
