Raja is taken from the word Rajaswala, which means menstruating women. The people of Odisha believed that during the first three days Bhudevi (Mother Earth), the wife of Lord Jagannath undergoes menstruation and is given a ceremonial bath the fourth day.

Woke feminists will often tell you that Hindu dharma oppresses women. They will also tell you menstruation is considered to be ‘impure’. Nothing can be considered further from the truth.
All states in India have their own way to include and honour menstruation. #RajaParba

The beautiful state of #Odisha has a 3 day festival called Raja Parba that starts from today. The word ‘Raja’ comes from 'Rajaswala' which means a menstruating woman in Sanskrit & Parba means festival in Odia.

Raja Parba is Odisha’s way of celebrating womanhood.
