Jagannath

資料來源 : Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)

Jagannath \Jag"an*nath\, Jagannatha \Jag`an*na"tha\, n. Also
Juggernaut \Jug"ger*naut\ [Hind. Jagan-n[=a]th lord of the
   world, Skr. jagann[=a]tha.] (Hinduism)
   A particular form of Vishnu, or of Krishna, whose chief idol
   and worship are at Puri, in Orissa. The idol is considered to
   contain the bones of Krishna and to possess a soul. The
   principal festivals are the Snanayatra, when the idol is
   bathed, and the Rathayatra, when the image is drawn upon a
   car adorned with obscene paintings. Formerly it was
   erroneously supposed that devotees allowed themselves to be
   crushed beneath the wheels of this car. It is now known that
   any death within the temple of Jagannath is considered to
   render the place unclean, and any spilling of blood in the
   presence of the idol is a pollution.
