The procession going north on Telegraph Avenue begins at 1PM at the temple, and will proceed to the entrance of UC Berkeley, and then return to New Jagannath Puri temple. A full program of spiritual activities will commence, culminating with a FREE mahaprasadam (spiritual food) feast beginning at 7:45PM. The public is cordially invited.
