Therefore the sound was not limited by space. It could travel far and wide. Chaitanya bhagavad andyakhanda 8.02 at that time Balaram Krishna and Govinda the Vijay Vigraha arrived at Narendra Sarovra for performing water sports in the Skanda Purana Utkalakanda chapter 29 it is stated by Shakastya okay, smear fragrant sandalwood paste on my body on the day of Akshay Tritia during the waxing moon in the month of Vaishak. Sri Purushottam Deva ordered his servant, the exalted Vaishnava Shri Indra Dyumnadeva to smear fragrant sandalwood paste on his body on the day of Akshaya Tritya during the waxing moon in the month of Vaishak. Following this, even today Lord Jagannath's Vijay Vigraha Sri Madan Mohan is brought on a palanquin from the temple to Sri Narendra Sauravara every day from Akshay Tritya in Vaishak up to the eighth day of the waning moon in Jaista. Sri Madan Mohan Deva enjoys these boat pastimes in the lake along with his ministers headed by Lokanath and Mahadeva. Since the Chandana Yacha festival of Sri Madan Mohan is held in Sri Narendra Sarovar the lake is also called Chandan Kukur. The phrase Sri Yatra refers to Chandan Yatra. So every so every day the deity is covered with tondon or sandalwood paste.

The evening, the evening goes the lake Palestine around the lake of the walk.

And in the evening the deity is brought to the lake and performs his pastime around the lake on a boat.

Iskan we also observe this festival in.

World and not through this material happiness.

And it's not to do with this material and is not to do with this material happiness.
