The Sudarshan Daru was cut into several rectangular solid blocks, known as ‘choupata’. While the Daru is made of Neem tree, the Sagadi is made of tendu, tamarin and banyan trees.
Local residents of Gadakantunia and nearby villages have bid farewell to the Daru with tearful eyes. While one group of Sevayats went with Sudarshan’s Daru, others left for Kanakpur yesterday to be with Lord Balabhadra’s Daru.
The Daru reached in Pipili yesterday and halted at the Bata Mahabir Mandir in the night. The Sagadi left for Madhubani Kalyan Mandap. It will halt at Harekrushnapur tonight before arriving at Alam Chandi a Mandir in Puri tomorrow. Then, the Sagadi will be taken to Shree Mandir through the Uttar Dwar (Northern Gate). It will be placed at Koilibaikuntha.
