Jagannath Temple: It would be impossible to discuss the history of Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand, without mentioning the Jagannath temple at Dhruva. It is not only Ranchi’s pride. However, it is also where people’s religion is centered. Everything about this place, from the craftsmanship and beauty of the temple to the calm and harmony, draws worshipers.
Wedding and auspicious work center
Marriages continue to take place at Ranchi’s Jagannath temple on a daily basis due to the strong confidence that people have in it. It is highly auspicious to take circuits here. It is stated that one receives Lord Jagannath’s blessings here, and the marriage remains intact. Here, auspicious activities continue to take place, such as the worship of vehicles and motorcycles during children’s Chhathi.
The temple’s building narrative is an intriguing one
Mythology states that the temple of Lord Jagannath was constructed at Dhurva, Ranchi, in 1691 by Thakur Aninath Shahdev, the Nagavanshi King of Barkagarh. Along with his servant, Thakur Aninath Shahdev traveled to Puri. After becoming a follower of the Lord, the servant continued to adore him for several days.
Let us tell you that the devotee instantly prayed to God in his head when he grew hungry one evening. It is said that Lord Jagannath transformed into a different person and came in front of the devotee that same evening. The devotee was served by Lord Jagannath, who provided food beautifully arranged in his bhog thali.
Following this, the devotee told Thakur Saheb the whole tale. Under such circumstances, Thakur had a dream that night in which Lord Jagannath instructed him to install his idol after returning from Puri. It was only after returning from Puri that Thakur built a temple modeled like the Puri temple at Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand.
A beautiful vista and a deep faith
In addition to seeing God’s idol, devotees flock here to see God in person. This temple is perched on a tiny hill that offers a broad perspective of Ranchi. People also come here to enjoy calm moments because of the cool wind and tranquility.
