Naba Jaubana Besha Darshan

Naba Jaubana Besha Darshan is the Holy Sight of the Juvenile Youth of Lord Jagannath. After the Lord takes a heavy bath during the Snaana Purnima, He falls ill and retires into the Anasara Ghara (The House of Rest). Following a full fortnight of treatment with herbs, complete rest, and dieting, the Lord regains His juvenile youth and appears as enticing as ever.
