  Abstract


Manda Puja is an age-old annual festival which is celebrated with great devotion in and around 100 km of Ranchi city in Jharkhand, India. It is celebrated in the honor of Lord Shiva And Goddess Parvati every year during the month of April-May. This Puja is considered as one of the most important tribal festival in Jharkhand as large number of devotees belong to Oraon and Munda tribe along with members of Mahto, Lohad and other non-tribal communities. This is a festival which lasts for 7-9 days in which devotees fasts strictly. Both male and female devotees of Lord Shiva participate in this festival fervently. Male devotees are called as �Bhoktas� and female devotees are called as �Sahayikas�. Basically female devotees show their support to Bhoktas by doing the ritual of �Lota Sevan� in which they carry lota (brass pot) full of water over their head for long duration in the name of a particular Bhokta, who could be brother, husband or potential partner of that female devotee.Along with this ritual, several rituals are followed by devotees which include �Betjori�, �Dhuwasi�,� �Charka Daag Machan� �Barmangi�, and �Phulkunda�. All these rituals of Manda Puja involve extremely strenuous ordeals which devotees perform to express their devotion to Shiva. Like in Betjori ritual Bhoktas roll on muddy ground bared body with stick, in Dhuwasi ritual bhoktas are hung upside down on a bamboo set-up under which fire is lit. In Charka Daag Machan ritual, Bhoktas body are hooked with iron-hooks, and then they are suspended by these hooks from approx. 60-feet high bamboo poles. In Phulkunda ritual true devotees are supposed to walk bare-footed on the bed of coal embers. All these rituals are followed with a strong belief that Shiva is there to look after them hence true and pure devotees won�t get injured. Undoubtedly, this amalgamation of rituals and strong belief in divinity highly enriches the overall diverse culture of Jharkhand and also provides platform for the members of various communities to come together and witness this unique festival which is an absolute test of one�s devotion.
