Pranav Goswami, the sevayat of the temple told that the artisans of Agra are preparing a special zari dress for Thakurji. This dress will be priceless and will have a glimpse of peacock. He told that on Prakatyotsav, Aaradhya will be offered Panchmevayukt Halwa in Balbhog in the morning, 21 kg cake along with delicacies in Rajbhog in the afternoon. The cake will be prepared from Mawa and Panchmeva will be added to it.
Sevayat Acharya Prahlad Vallabh Goswami told that about 479 years ago, on the Shuklapaksha Panchami of the month of Margashirsha (Agahan), the coordinated form of Shyamshyama’s duet, which appeared in Nidhivanraj from the musical practice of musician Haridas, is called by the name of Thakur Shribanke Bihari. Prakatyotsav of Thakur Banke Bihari is celebrated on Bihar Panchami.
Prahlad Vallabh Goswami told that about seven decades ago the traditional festival of Bihar Panchami was celebrated in a simple way. From the year 1955 to 58, the Management Committee, which handled the arrangements of the temple, constituted the Banke Bihari Samaroh Parishad in association with Goswami Chhabile Vallabhacharya. Since then, the tradition of taking out a procession in the festival started.
Along with the devotees, the Beriwala family also makes a special contribution in the Bihar Panchami festival, which is gradually expanding. On the festival, Bihariji, who wears precious ornaments along with yellow dress in the temple decorated with yellow polis, is offered special bhog of saffron punch, almond halua and dry fruit laddoos.
