Boycotting an Idol.

At a place called Brindabun, in the
Maharajah of Jeypore's territory. there
has long been Hindoo temple contain
ing within its walls particularly sacred
idol named Gobindji. This was sup
posed to watch over the royal dynasty,
and in return successive Maharajahs
were very polite to Gobindji and very
liberal to his attendants. So all went
smoothly until the late Maharajah came
to the throne. His predecessors had be-
longed to the Vaishnava sect, and the
idol priestly attendants were. of course,
OF that persuasion also. But the new
man not only proved to be SILVA, but
actually introduced SILVA priest into
the temple to help him in worshiping
Gobindji. When the Vaishnavas, who
hate the Shivas, heard of this desecra-
ton, they sent the Maharajah to Coven-
try and made solemn VOW that they
would never look upon poor Gobindji
again or enter the door OF his temple.
This by itself might not have mattered
much to the idol, but the enraged Walsh
navas surrounded the temple with a
Gordon of trusty emissaries, who warned
away pilgrims under divers pains and
penalties. The consequence was that the
shrine became deserted, its revenues fell
away to zero, and Gobindji suffered so
seriously in reputation that he became
quite an unconsidered idol.
