Jagdish Mandir Kurseong is a temple of Lord Jagganth (Lord Krishna) which is situated in Kurseong town in Darjeeling District of West Bengal, India. The temple was built around 300 years ago by Purohit (Pareek) brothers who came to Kurseong from Mokalpur (Mokala) a small town of Rajasthan. As the Brahmin family of Pareeks were devotees of Lord Krishna the male members of the family made statues of Lord Jagannath from the holy neem tree of the village and set out in different directions to make temples of Lord Jagganath. As per available records many temples of Lord Jagannath were established in different areas of India. The main towns presently known are - 1. Kurseong, Darjeeling, West Bengal. 2. Bhavnagar, Gujarat. 3. Gulej Garh. 4. Daman Diu. 5. Bundi, Rajasthan. 6. Kota, Rajasthan. 7. Khangaria Bangharia, Madhya Pradesh 8. Bajna, Dholpur, Rajasthan. 9. Ahmedabad, Gujrat. It is also known that there was a temple in Karachi (now Pakistan) before independence. (Present status not known). It should have been a very difficult journey from Rajasthan to Darjeeling (around 1600 km) in those days when mode of transport and roads were not available. ==References== 〔wikimapia.org/18701251/Jagdish-Mandir〕 〔jagdishmandirkurseong.blogspot.com〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jagdish Mandir Kurseong」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
