PLATE SIX

“Pundarika Vidyanidhi initiated Gadadhara Pandita for the second time,
and on the day of Odana-sasthi he saw the festival. When Pundarika
Vidyanidhi saw that Lord Jagannatha was given a starched garment, he
became a little hateful. In this way his mind was polluted. That night the
brothers Lord Jagannatha and Balarama came to Pundarika Vidyanidhi
and, smiling, began to slap him. Although his cheeks were swollen from
the slapping, Pundarika Vidyanidhi was very happy within.” (pp.200-207 )
