Why does the flag of the Jagannath temple flutter in the opposite direction of the wind... know the reason...
There are such miracles in the temple of Lord Jagannath that even science has no answer to. The flag of the temple waving in the opposite direction of the wind is also one of these miracles. There is a mythological belief behind this.
Waving the flag against the wind is associated with Hanuman ji. According to the legend, Lord Vishnu had difficulty in resting due to the sound of the sea. When Hanuman ji came to know about this, he told the sea to stop its voice because my lord is not getting peace due to your noise.
Then the sea said that it is not in my control. This sound will travel as far as the speed of the wind. For this you should request your father Pawan Dev. Then Hanuman Ji invoked his father Pawan Dev and asked him not to flow in the direction of the temple. Pawan Dev said that this is not possible. For this he told Hanuman Ji a solution.
This flag hoisted on the top of the temple is changed every day. There is a belief about the Jagannath temple that if the flag is not changed even for a day, the temple will be closed for 18 years. The prasad of this temple is also prepared in a very interesting way.
To cook the Prasad, 7 vessels are placed one above the other, which is cooked on a wooden stove, but in this process, the ingredients kept in the topmost vessel get cooked first and then slowly the ingredients kept in the lower vessels get cooked.
