Significance of The Jagannath Temple Top Flag
by Souporno Ghosh StudentPuri’s Jagannath Temple
is of utmost importance to the Hindu devotees as it is one of the
Char-Dham Pilgrimages. It also serves as a mighty historical structure
built about millennia ago, in the year 1078. Millions of people visit
Odisha to gain Lord Jagannath blessings.
The temple is famous for its annual Rath Yatra which is witnessed by
millions as the three colossal chariots carry the deities. But that’s
not the sole speciality of the place! Some enigmatic activities without
any scientific explanations have caught the travellers eye worldwide.
The temple flag that defies logic
Even a child knows any piece of cloth is dominated by the wind to fly according to its course. The same principle has numerous applications; from the giant sails on your ship to a small flag in your hand all follow the same code. But it looks like the flag mounted on the top of the Jagannath Temple is a unique exception to the principle. This particular flag flows in the opposite direction to the wind’s course without any scientific background to back it up.
