<i>Chandan yatra</i> or "Sandalwood Festival" is a 42 day period that marks the beginning of construction work for the chariots. The period is divided in half, consisting of 21 days each. The first half is known as <i>Bahar chandan</i>, whereby the representative images of the presiding deities are taken out in colorful processions and given a ceremonial boat ride in the Narendra tank every day. These deities include Madan Mohan (Jagannath), Rama-Krishna, Lakshmi, Saraswati and the Pancha Pandava - the presiding deities of the five main Shiva temples. The latter, known as <i>Bhitar chandan,</i> consists of various rituals not open to the public.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The construction of the chariots starts on Akshaya Tritiya, the third day of the bright fortnight of Vaisakha, with ritual fire worship. This takes place in front of the palace of the King of Puri and opposite the main office of the Puri temple. Later the deities have a ritual bath in a small temple in the middle of the tank, in stone tubs filled with water, sandalwood paste, scents, and flowers. </p><p>This sandalwood festival culminates in the <i><a href="/wiki/Snana_Yatra" title="Snana Yatra">Snana Yatra</a></i> or "Bathing Festival" which takes place on the full moon day of the month of Jyeshtha. The deities, Jagannath, Balbhadra and Subhadra are bathed with 108 pots of water and then remain in symbolic and ritual convalescence for about two weeks. They are barred from the view of the public.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Only three special patta chitras, traditional Oriya paintings of natural colors on cloth stiffened with starch, known as Anasara Pattis, are strung on a bamboo screen hiding the deities from public view, can be seen by the public. During this period, the deities are given only roots, leaves, berries and fruits to cure them of their indisposition. This ritual is a reminder of the strong tribal elements in the genesis and evolution of the Jagannatha cult. The progeny of Lalita, daughter of the original tribal worshipper Biswabasu, chieftain of hunters, and the Brahmin priest Vidyapati, are known as daitapatis or daitas. They have the almost exclusive privilege of serving the deityduring the convalescence and through the entire period of Ratha Jatra or the Festival of Chariots. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Suna_Besha">Suna Besha</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ratha_Yatra_(Puri)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Suna Besha"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg/235px-Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg" decoding="async" width="235" height="132" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg/353px-Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg/470px-Golden_Attire_or_Suna_Vesha_of_Lord_Shri_Jagannath_of_Puri.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1159" data-file-height="650" /></a><figcaption>The Suna Besha of Jagannath</figcaption></figure> <p>After the chariots of the deities return to the main temple from the Gundicha temple, the deities are attired in gold ornaments and worshipped on the chariots.
