These are the cutest pics of Niladri Bije I have seen. The artists have done awesome job.

Niladri Bije is a ritual of Ratha Jatra. When the three siblings returned to Bada Deola (Jagannath Temple, Puri), Goddess Laxmi shuts the doors after Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra's entry and leaves Lord Jagannath outside alone. She is angry as he doesn't take with her with him on the chariot. After lots of cajoling and pleading, she only let's him in when he offers Rasagolla to her. It is my favourite part of Ratha Jatra.

Ok but everything else aside, krishna is literally the lover. He loves you. In all forms. Platonic, brotherly, he just loves you. He'll always be with you as long as you don't leave your morals. He's not just a god wanting just some devotee. He just loves you. He loves everyone. I still remember that article i read in 7th grade and i still remembered what they called him. The Quintessential Best friend. He's always there for you
