About
Alarnatha Mandira or Alvarnaatha Mandira, is a Hindu temple dedicated to Vishnu and located in Brahmagiri, Odisha, near Puri. The temple also houses a shrine for his consort Mahalakshmi. During the krishnapaksha of Ashadha, the temple draws large crowds following the Snana Yatra, as devotees are not allowed to view the central icon of Jagannath in the Puri temple. During this period, popularly known as Anasara or 'Anavasara', devotees believe that Lord Jagannath manifests as Alarnath Dev at the Alarnath Mandira in Brahmagiri, about 23 km from Puri.
