The work for the first time presents in a very detailed manner the various rites forming the daily puja ceremony of one of the most famous and important temples of the Hindus namely that of Jagannatha at Puri. The study is based on a large number of authentic palm leaf manuscripts discovered and collected by the author in Orissa substantiated by his personal observation and information acquired from the temple functionaries. It is a well known fact that the study of Hindu temple rituals has not yet been taken up so extensively and seriously as that of the Vedic rituals. This work seeks to fill up this desirable gap and is a significant contribution to the study of the process of formation of the medieval Hinduism and its gradual development.
