Abstract: One popular myth about the origin of Lord Jagannath is associated with the legend of King Indradyumna and the divine appearance of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Subhadra. Here’s a summarized version of the myth: King Indradyumna was a devout ruler who desired to build a grand temple for Lord Vishnu. He heard about the deity Nila Madhava, a form of Vishnu, and embarked on a quest to find and worship Him. The sage Vidyapati guided the king in his search and revealed that Nila Madhava resided in a secluded forest. Unable to find Nila Madhava, the king performed severe penance. During his meditation, the deity appeared in his dream and instructed him to build a temple at a specific location on the Nilachala Hill in Puri, Odisha. Following the divine guidance, King Indradyumna built the Jagannath Temple at Puri. However, he faced challenges in finding an appropriate image of Lord Vishnu to install in the temple. In another version, the god Brahma, pleased with the king’s devotion, instructed him to carve the deities from a divine log that washed ashore. The king commissioned skilled artisans to carve the deities but set a condition that the artisans should work without interruption until the task was complete. One night, when the artisans’ wife came to visit them, she found the incomplete idols. This interruption, according to legend, led to the deities having large, uncarved eyes. These unfinished but consecrated idols became Lord Jagannath, along with his siblings Balabhadra and Subhadra. The Jagannath Temple in Puri became one of the holiest pilgrimage sites in Hinduism, attracting millions of devotees annually. This myth emphasizes devotion, divine intervention, and the concept of divine grace in the creation of Lord Jagannath’s iconic forms. The purpose of this article is to dispel the myth surrounding the origin of Lord Jagannath and cite authentic sources.
