Chakra Thirtha temple Odisha

The holy land of Odisha is divided into four kshetras. These kshetras are named after the four names of weapons of Lord Vishnu such as sankha (conch shell) chakra (disc) gada (mace) and padma (lotus). Puri Dham is known as Sankha Kshetra.


This is a small temple with the main diety as the same as Puri jaganath temple. Lord Balaramar Subhatra and Lord Jaganath .


Inside the main sanctum there is a chakra on the floor .
This place is considered as Jal dham .
The priest there said us that , this temple is older than Puri Jaganath temple.

Though this temple is near the sea the water inside is sweet .


This is a mukthi sthalam. We were asked to do abhishegam (ablution of water) to the Chakra . Those who visit Puri Jaganath temple visit this temple too .
