It was customary to worship the family deity at home, village deity at the village and the state deity (R膩stra Devat膩) in the highest place of the state. Lord Purusottama (Jagannatha) of k峁�etra is considered by pilgrims as R盲stra Devat膩 (state deity). Every citizen of the k峁�etra considers it to be an opportunity to involve in the rituals of the state deity as per their traditional occupations. People of the k峁�etra not only worship the Lord Jagann膩tha but they also worship all types of Hindu gods and goddesses. Hence a large number of temples are erected in the different parts of the k峁�etra dedicated to those divinities. In the post Gupta period, 艢aivism became the strongest Hindu sectarian religion in Orissa as well as in the k峁�etra of Lord Purusottama. It was the dominant religion in central Orissa from the 6th century AD onwards and reached the peak of its glory during the Somava峁僺i period in the 10th and 11th century AD. During this period, most of the ancient 艢aiva temples of the k峁�etra were constructed by the Somava峁僺i rulers of Orissa. Saktism was closely related to 艢aivism, although its traces may reach back to an even more distant past. The female deities were worshipped by the lower strata of society. The Saktas gained their greatest influence and were most generously supported by the rulers of Orissa extending during the period from the 8th to the 16th century AD. Vai峁ａ箛avism entered into the 艢r墨k峁�etra region as a predominant religious faith later than that of Sakta cult and it over shrouded all the Brahminical sects. The Ganga kings fully turned towards Vai峁ａ箛avism in the early part of the 12th century AD and it remained as the religion of the majority of people of Orissa. Vai峁ａ箛avism advanced towards Orissa from the South and the West. Scholars mostly contend that the Orissan Vai峁ａ箛avism is an offshoot of Buddhist philosophical doctrines and religious practices characterized by Tantric form of worship. 24 Like Saiva, 艢膩kta and Vai峁ａ箛ava deities, other deities are also being worshipped in the k峁�etra. 6
