P.R.Ramachander
(There was a great king called Indra Dhyumna in Orissa who was a
great devotee of Lord Vishnu. One great scholar once told him about a very rare
but extremely holy form of Lord Vishnu called Neela Madhava . The king send all
his courtiers in search of this great form of Lord Vishnu . Excepot one
minister called Vidhyapathi all of them failed Vidhyapathi with extreme
difficulty located Neela Madhava being worshipped by A gentleman called
Vishvavasu belonging to a tribe called SAbara. On his information the
king Indra Dhyumna did reach the place where he found Neela Madhava
but was disappointed as he was not able to see the god there. However he was
instructed by God Nila Madhava to construct a temple on the top of the
Neeladri(Blue mountain) and get a a wooden statue of him
consecrated there by Lord Brahma. The God instructed the king to collect the
wodden piece sent by him to carve out the idol of the god. It is believed
God himself came in the form of an artist to carve the statue. He
instructed that he should work alone and should not be disturbed. He said
he would work inside the temple and the doors should be closed,. Unable to
stifle his anxiety to see the God , the king one day opened the doors of the
temple. The Statues of Krishna, Balabadra and Subadra werenot
completely finished and did not have legs and arms. The God ordered the king to
worship him in that form only. This is the Lord Jagannatha of Puri.
It is believed Adhi Sankara visited this temple and has written this great prayer.)
