I don’t even wanna talk about the absolutely subverted and mentally colonised idiots in our own communities who do the same shit about Hindu gods and feel like they achieved something for fucking once in their sordid lives. I am literally so tired of these people and the ever present anti hindu bigotry after the abrahamic invasion of the civilised world.
P.s there’s nothing creepy about him. You can fuck off with your western/abrahamic lens of demonising anything unfamiliar or even mildly different to what you are used to seeing. It’s fucking 2026.
And for the people who want to genuinely to know about Jagannath - Lord Jagannath’s unique form, the large, round eyes, no eyelids, and stubby arms is a sacred representation of intense divine ecstasy and eternal, all-seeing love. The idol is traditionally carved from neem wood in this incomplete form to represent a profound spiritual moment, symbolizing that the Lord is not limited by human physical form and is always watching over his devotees.
According to legend, King Indradyumna was told to build the deity. The divine architect, Vishwakarma, agreed to carve the idols on the condition that he not be disturbed. When the King opened the door prematurely, Vishwakarma vanished, leaving the deities in their unique, unfinished, stubby-limbed form.
The large, unblinking eyes signify that the Lord is always awake, watching over his devotees and the entire universe, embodying the concept of anadi (without beginning) and ananta (without end).
