Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra,
with the celestial wheel Sudarshana are
taken out from the temple precincts in an elaborate ritual procession to
their respective chariots.
The huge, colourfully decorated chariots, are
drawn by hundreds and thousands of devotees on the bada danda,
the grand
avenue to the Gundicha temple, some two miles away to the North. After a
stay for seven days, the deities return to their abode in Srimandira.
