the Bengali proverb <em>\u201cmaking a palm tree out of a sesame seed\u201d<\/em>\u2014turning a trivial matter into a major one. It illustrates how the impact of such an incident can gradually reduce a remarkably beautiful temple into a ruin.<\/p>\n<p>A Vaishnava family once lived in Paschim Purushottampur village of the Majnamutha Pargana. The village lies just east of present-day Contai town and is so small that it could almost fit in the palm of one\u2019s hand. It was here that the prosperous Nayak family resided.<\/p>\n<p>Influenced by the Gaudiya Vaishnava faith propagated by Chaitanyadeva, the Nayaks built a temple dedicated to their family deity, Narayan, within their homestead. Beside the temple stood a jujube tree (<em>kul<\/em> tree). One day, a boy from the neighboring village of Adaberia came and stole some fruits from the tree. From this seemingly minor incident began a bitter dispute.<\/p>\n<p>The boy\u2019s family eventually took the matter to court. Everyone knows how prolonged court proceedings can be. The litigation continued for several decades.<\/p>\n<p>As the years of the lawsuit passed, the fortunes of the Nayak family steadily declined. By the time Krishnaprasad Nayak became the head of the family, the case was finally settled during his lifetime. But by then, except for their residence and the temple standing on a few kathas of land, nearly two hundred bighas of property had been sold to meet the legal expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, a day came when the family could no longer afford even the modest honorarium for the temple priest. With tears in their eyes, they had to hand over the two sacred images to the Brahmin priest. Choking back his emotions, Krishnaprasad made only one request:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cRevered priest, I could not fulfill my duty. Please ensure that my deity at least continues to receive water and sacred tulsi leaves in your home.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That day, the Nayak family was overwhelmed with grief. This was not merely a Shalagram stone. It was Narayan himself, bearing the conch, discus, mace, and lotus\u2014a four-armed deity standing upon a fully blossomed lotus. The image left the ancestral homestead forever. Since that day, Narayan has been worshipped in the priest\u2019s house in the nearby village of Brahmanbasan.<\/p>\n<p>No incense or lamps are lit anymore in the temple of the Nayaks. The air of the village no longer resonates with the sounds of conch shells, bells, and brass cymbals. In former times, festivals and celebrations were held throughout the year with great enthusiasm. Today, they survive only as painful memories.<\/p>\n<p>The sea lies not far from Purushottampur. Salty winds rise from the ocean and relentlessly erode the abandoned temple throughout the year. Large trees and their roots have gradually wrapped themselves around the structure.<\/p>\n<p>The plinth of this dilapidated and deserted temple still stands about two feet high. Traces of a circumambulatory passage can be seen around it. The east-facing <em>pancha-ratna<\/em> (five-towered) temple was built of brick, lime, and mortar. Four verandahs surround the sanctum.<\/p>\n<p>The front verandah contains three arched entrances. There is one entrance each on the north and south sides as well. The western side consists of a recessed or \u201chidden\u201d verandah. The sanctum has an additional doorway connecting it to the northern verandah. From this verandah, a staircase leads to the upper floor.<\/p>\n<p>The skeletal remains of the two half-columns in the front verandah suggest that they were constructed in the <em>imarati<\/em> style. The ceilings of the verandahs are built in the <em>tana-khilan<\/em> (continuous arch) style. The ceiling of the sanctum was formed by a circular vault resting upon four successive arches.<\/p>\n<p>All five towers (<em>ratnas<\/em>) are divided into <em>ratha<\/em> projections. However, the roof was not divided into <em>pidha<\/em> tiers. The upper portions of all the towers have completely disappeared. It is therefore impossible to determine how architectural elements such as the <em>benki<\/em>, <em>khapuri<\/em>, <em>amalaka<\/em>, bell, finial pot, and Vishnu-chakra were originally arranged.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the front wall of the verandah has almost vanished. Whatever remains still bears evidence of terracotta ornamentation. Apart from the exposed brick framework, there is virtually no trace of the original plaster on the temple. After all, a hundred years is no short period of time.<\/p>\n<p>How the large terracotta compositions above the three entrances were originally arranged can never be known. However, examples survive showing that the dividing bands between these panels were decorated with terracotta plaques. A few specimens also remain from a row beneath the cornice and from the two vertical rows that once adorned the corner sections on either side.<\/p>\n<p>The surviving motifs include the <strong>Dashavatara<\/strong> (Ten Incarnations of Vishnu), mounted soldiers, and several male and female figures. Two erotic (<em>mithuna<\/em>) figures also remain intact. It is not difficult to imagine that the temple was once richly adorned with terracotta work and must have been a magnificent sight.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing such a valuable cultural heritage destroyed because of the stubbornness and arrogance of a proud aristocratic family fills one\u2019s heart with sorrow.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wpuf_customs\">\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-text_field\">\n                                    <label>\u09ac\u09bf\u0997\u09cd\u09b0\u09b9 Deity:<\/label><br \/>\n                                \u09a8\u09be\u09b0\u09be\u09df\u09a3 Narayan            <\/li>\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-dropdown_field\">\n                                    <label>\u09ac\u09bf\u0997\u09cd\u09b0\u09b9\u09c7\u09b0 \u09ac\u09b0\u09cd\u09a4\u09ae\u09be\u09a8 \u0985\u09ac\u09b8\u09cd\u09a5\u09be Existence of deity at present:<\/label><br \/>\n                                \u09a8\u09c7\u0987 \/ Not Exist            <\/li>\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-text_field\">\n                                    <label> \u09ac\u09bf\u0997\u09cd\u09b0\u09b9\u09c7\u09b0 \u09ac\u09bf\u09ac\u09b0\u09a3  Description of the Deity:<\/label><br \/>\n                                \u09aa\u09cd\u09b0\u09b8\u09cd\u09ab\u09c1\u099f\u09bf\u09a4 \u09aa\u09a6\u09cd\u09ae\u09c7\u09b0 \u0989\u09aa\u09b0 \u09a6\u09a3\u09cd\u09a1\u09be\u09df\u09ae\u09be\u09a8 \u09b6\u0999\u09cd\u0996, \u099a\u0995\u09cd\u09b0, \u0997\u09a6\u09be, \u09aa\u09a6\u09cd\u09ae \u09a7\u09be\u09b0\u09c0 \u09a8\u09be\u09b0\u09be\u09df\u09a3\u09c7\u09b0 \u099a\u09a4\u09c1\u09b0\u09cd\u09ad\u09c2\u099c \u09ae\u09c2\u09b0\u09cd\u09a4\u09bf A four-armed statue of Lord Narayan, holding the conch, discus, mace, and lotus, standing gracefully upon a fully bloomed lotus flower.            <\/li>\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-dropdown_field\">\n                                    <label>\u09ac\u09bf\u09b7\u09df Subject:<\/label><br \/>\n                                \u099f\u09c7\u09b0\u09be\u0995\u09cb\u099f\u09be \u09ae\u09a8\u09cd\u09a6\u09bf\u09b0 Teracotta Temple            <\/li>\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-text_field\">\n                                    <label>\u09a7\u09b0\u09a3  Type \/ Style:<\/label><br \/>\n                                \u09b8\u09cd\u09a5\u09be\u09aa\u09a4\u09cd\u09af Architecture            <\/li>\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-dropdown_field\">\n                                    <label>\u09b6\u09be\u09b0\u09c0\u09b0\u09bf\u0995 \u0989\u09aa\u0995\u09b0\u09a3 Physical Format:<\/label><br \/>\n                                \u09ae\u09bf\u09b6\u09cd\u09b0 Mixed            <\/li>\n<li class=\"wpuf-field-data wpuf-field-data-textarea_field\">\n                                   <label>\u09ab\u09b2\u0995\u09c7\u09b0 \u09ac\u09bf\u09ac\u09b0\u09a3 Plaque description:<\/label><\/p>\n<p>\u0995\u09be\u09b0\u09cd\u09a3\u09bf\u09b6\u09c7\u09b0 \u09a8\u09c0\u099a \u09ac\u09b0\u09be\u09ac\u09b0 \u098f\u0995 \u09b8\u09be\u09b0\u09bf \u098f\u09ac\u0982 \u09a6\u09c1\u2019\u09a6\u09bf\u0995\u09c7\u09b0 \u09a6\u09c1\u0987 \u0995\u09cb\u09a3\u09be\u099a\u09c7\u09b0 \u0997\u09be\u09df\u09c7\u09b0 \u0996\u09be\u09dc\u09be \u09a6\u09c1\u099f\u09bf \u09b8\u09be\u09b0\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7 \u09ab\u09b2\u0995 \u099b\u09bf\u09b2\u0964\u09ae\u09cb\u099f\u09bf\u09ab \u09b9\u09bf\u09b8\u09be\u09ac\u09c7 \u09a6\u09c7\u0996\u09be \u09af\u09be\u09df\u2014\u09ac\u09bf\u09b7\u09cd\u09a3\u09c1\u09b0 \u09a6\u09b6\u09be\u09ac\u09a4\u09be\u09b0, \u0985\u09b6\u09cd\u09ac\u09be\u09b0\u09cb\u09b9\u09c0 \u09b8\u09c8\u09a8\u09bf\u0995, \u0995\u09df\u09c7\u0995\u099f\u09bf \u09a8\u09b0-\u09a8\u09be\u09b0\u09c0 \u09ae\u09c2\u09b0\u09cd\u09a4\u09bf \u0987\u09a4\u09cd\u09af\u09be\u09a6\u09bf\u0964 \u09a6\u09c1\u099f\u09bf \u09ae\u09bf\u09a5\u09c1\u09a8 \u09ae\u09c2\u09b0\u09cd\u09a4\u09bf\u0993 \u099f\u09bf\u0995\u09c7 \u0986\u099b\u09c7 \u098f\u0996\u09a8\u0993\u0964 <\/p>\n<p>A row of terracotta plaques once ran beneath the cornice, while two vertical rows adorned the corner projections on either side.
