Floating Prasadam:

The prasadam offered to Lord Jagannath is so sacred that it never turns stale. To add to the surprise, it floats, when you drop it in water.

The prasad that passes through the corridors of the divine deity Jagannath, acquires such power naturally and proves the deities power and mercy time and again.

Divine Dreams:

Once you step in, you can expect to get some kind of divine instructions in some invisible way or the other. Many devotees have dreamed of Lord Jagannath during the night after their day time visit. People who are spiritually inclined are sure to find some guidance to move up further in the ladder of spiritual achievement.

A devotee, in order to visit Jagannath or any other deity, must wait to be called by that Deity. Somehow things automatically get convenient to allow you to have a chance to visit the temple. this means the deity is willing to see you.

Sometimes, you will not be able to visit no matter what. This is a hint that you are not yet spiritually ready to visit the temple or that you have not completely suffered all your karmas. This experience not only ripens a devotee spiritually but also inspires others to follow them as examples and find their long standing questions answered by God..

Healing Powers:

The ambience of the temple, to put it in one word, is healing. Our longstanding diseases find a way towards cure. Many have been cured as well. There are people who visit this for both spiritual healing as well as disease healing.

Protection from Natural Mishaps:

Jagannath is the prince of Puri and Puri is under his governance in every way. When Jagannath is around, you can never get to experience floods and any natural calamities. In the face of any crisis, people of Puri confidently resort to Jagannath and his inexplicable mercy.

Divine Signals:

Many devotees have felt divine sensations inside the temple, for example, light flashes, deity visions, oracular sounds, and so on. It is the way of Jagannath to receive and welcome his devotees to his abode and make them feel comfortable.

Other Miracles:

Jagannath continues to haunt the memories of both his devotees as well as plain visitors. What baffles one is the weight of the Gods idols that keep increasing as the devotees pull the chariot in the yatra. Secondly it is the prasad that is all the more mysterious.

The entire quantity of food is cooked only in 7 pots that are stacked one on the top of another. The topmost pot gets cooked first and the bottom most pot in the last, in that order. Totally around 2000 to 200000 people visit puri jagannath and the prasad is totally consumed daily and never gets wasted.

It is surprising to see that chariot wait for the Gajapati Maharaj of Orissa to come and sweep the area around the lords idols. It is only after he has completed his seva which is called Chera Pahanra, that the chariot begins to move.

Till then, even if a set of thousand people try to push it, or chant his name or recite his stotras for hours to gether , it refuses to move even a centimeter and waits for the services of Gajapati Maharaj.
