Lord Jagannath, a deity worshipped in the Hindu religion, is believed to fall ill during a specific annual ritual known as the "Nabajouban Darshan" or "Nava Yauvana Darshan." This event occurs on the day following the Snana Purnima, which is a bathing ceremony of the deities.
According to the religious beliefs Lord Jagannath falls ill during this time to experience the emotions and conditions of an ordinary human being. It is believed that this is a divine play or lila, where Lord Jagannath willingly undergoes a period of physical discomfort and seclusion to empathize with his devotees and understand their sufferings.
During this period, the idols of Lord Jagannath, along with his siblings Balabhadra and Subhadra, are kept in a separate chamber called the "Ratan Vedi" Devotees are not allowed to see the deities during this time (15 days), as it is believed that they need rest and seclusion to recover from their "illness." After a prescribed period, known as the "Anasara" the deities are believed to regain their health and reappear for public darshan or viewing by devotees.
It's important to note that these beliefs and rituals are rooted in religious traditions and vary according to different interpretations and practices within the Hindu faith.
