Lord Jagannath Chariot Festival, one of the most widely attended festivals in the world, is coming to Singapore. "Jagannath", meaning the Lord of the universe is the source of the English word "Juggernaut".

This colorful melodious extravaganza would be organized at the Toa Payoh Stadium, offering a rare view of the age old wisdom of the Vedic tradition.

Come and experience the splendor of a timeless tradition with your family on the coming Sunday!

Jagannatha Ratha Yatra

The biggest festival of the year is coming up!! The Jagannatha Ratha Yatra is just two weeks away!! On the 2nd of July (Sunday), we are going to celebrate the Ratha Yatra at Toa Payoh stadium from 5pm to 10pm.

We need a lot of service from all the devotees especially on the Ratha Yatra day, the previous day and the day after Ratha Yatra. Let us all enthusiastically take part in the service of Srila Prabhupada and Lord Jagannatha

Since it is going to be a big event this year, we request all the devotees to contribute whatever amount they can to make the event a grand success.

"Work done as a sacrifice for Visnu has to be performed, otherwise work causes bondage in this material world. Therefore, O son of Kunti, perform your prescribed duties for His satisfaction, and in that way you will always remain free from bondage."

Therefore all devotees are requested to contribute some of their earnings for the sake of the sankirtana yajna following the precepts of the Bhagavad Gita and following in the footsteps of great Acaryas like Rupa Gosvami and Sanatana Gosvami.

Bring all the people you can to the Jagannatha Ratha Yatra festival. Hare Krishna!!

Jagannath Snana Yatra

A series of major annual festivals will kick off with the Jagannath Snana Yatra on the 11th of June, 2006.
The Snana Yatra festival is held every year just 2 weeks before the annual Ratha Yatra festival. This festival is interesting because after the Lord takes His snana (bath), He “gets sick” for 2 weeks and then after “getting well” He ventures out into the streets on the Ratha Yatra Day to bestow His all-merciful glance on all the fallen souls.
Of course, the Lord’s sickness is far different from our sickness. His sickness is His pastime whereas ours is a punishment!!
So, on June the 11th, we have an Abhishek ceremony for Jagannath at 7pm. Jagannath is unconditionally merciful. Take and let others also take the fullest advantage of this opportunity! Bring along all your friends and relatives. All are welcome! Thank you! Hare Krishna!!
