JAGANNATH RATHYATRA IN ATLANTIC CITY- AUGUST 2
   
     
   
pratimäm tatra täm drstva
svayam devena nirmitäm
anäyäsena vai yänti
bhavanam me tato naräh
 
(Närada Puräna U.Kh.52.12)
 
The Supreme Lord Näräyana tells Lakshmi-devi, "In that great abode known as Purusottama-ksetra, which is rarely achieved among all the three worlds, the Kesava Deity, who was fashioned by the Supreme Lord Himself, is situated. If men simply see that Deity, they are easily able to come to My abode." In this way Lord Jagannätha is delivering the whole universe, especially as He rides on His cart before the eyes of all.
 
 
By the mercy of Lord Jagannath, devotees of ICNJ had the blissful opportunity to take Their Lordships Sri Sri Jagannath Baladev and Subhadra Devi to Atlantic City in a cart procession. The Maha Mantra vibrated throughout the city as hundreds of passers-by sang, danced, and pulled the chariot. The Lord's mercy is certainly evident as the tourists and those who frequent the casinos were simply amazed by the carts, kirtans, and prasadam distribution. Please join us for more such events in spreading the glories of the Lord around the state.
