For all those who matter. It is made clear that the dull headed author has no contribution of his own but accidentally on going through the Bhagabat Gita, as if Sri Jagannath induced the author to say something, he has opened his mind as above. The author is fully alive of the unfettered liberty Mr.B enjoyed, like other book writers, to express his own ideas and principles in his book. But the scanning of his Gita became imperative because Mr.B condemned all other Gita interpreters, showing his book as the best, defying the Ethics involved in book writing.

*A detailed exploration of a stunning festival, which is of great importance to Indian culture and heritage*A comprehensive and holistic view of this celebration Ratha Yatra, the ancient annual festival of the chariot and Jagannatha, the presiding deity of the great temple Srimandira at Puri, is one of the grandest spectacles on earth. Jagannatha (along with siblings Balabhadra and Subhadra) ride three colorful chariots in their annual sojourn to their garden house and birthplace Gundicha Temple, where they stay for seven days before returning back. Full of drama, vitality, and a panoply of rituals and ceremonies, Ratha Yatra is rooted in ancient traditions, myths and legends. It embodies the most colorful elements of the classical folk cultures of the Indian subcontinent and the Odisha region, and is the most succinct manifestation of India's heritage today. Celebrating the Hindu faith, this festival keeps Jagannatha alive and vibrant in the great pilgrim town of Puri, one of India's four most sacred cities.
