Niladri Bije: Return of Lord Jagannath into the 

Niladri bije is the ceremony of Lord Jagannath’s return with his siblings from the Raths to the main temple in Goti Pahandi. 

This is really interesting as it is all about the continuation of the fight between Lord Jagannath and Goddess Laxmi. Lord Sudarshan, Lord Balabhadra and Subhadra enter the temple after they return from the vacation, but Goddess Lakshmi did not allow Lord Jagannath to enter into the temple. 

Lord Jagannath remain outside the temple and at that time it started raining. Its it believed that as if the rains are the eye drops of Maha laxmi. 

A fight happens between Lord Jagannath and Laxmi in front of the temple. Goddess Laxmi was angry on him; as he did not take her along for the vacation to his aunt’s place. He had also closed the door when the Goddess had come to meet him at gundicha temple on the day of hera-panchami. 

Even after a lot of requests, Lord Jagannath was not allowed to enter the Jagannath mandir premises.After he offered saree and Rasgulla to Goddess Laxmi;  She calmed down and accepted his apology and allowed him to enter the Puri temple.
