The Jagannatha Temple triad are normally worshipped in the sanctum of the temple at Puri, but once during the month of Asadha (rainy season of Orissa, usually in June or July), they are brought out on the Bada Danda (main street of Puri) and taken over a distance of ( 3 kilometers ) to the Shri Gundicha Temple in huge chariots (ratha), allowing the public to have darśana (holy view).
