Every day 56 varieties of Bhog are offered to the Lord. The preparations are
made traditionally and no onion, garlic, chillies or many varieties of
vegetables (considered alien) are not used. These Offerings
after being made to Lord Jagannath are in
turn again offered to Goddess Bimala Devi in the temple precincts and then
becomes Mahaprasadam. This Mahaprasadam is considered very efficacious for
spiritual liberation. One should respectfully honor t1/1/1999he Mahaprasadam
sitting on the floor. This Mahaprasadam is available daily after 3 -5 pm. This
is sold outside the sanctum sanctorum area but within the temple premises. The
Mahaprasadam remains hot for a long time as it is kept in the same earthen pots
which are used to cook it.
