Nilamadhava (Odia: ନୀଳମାଧବ, Sanskrit: नीलमाधव, romanized: Nīlamādhava) is a manifestation of Vishnu and Krishna featured in Hindu literature, with its origin in Odia tradition.[1] According to traditional accounts, prior to his syncretism into Vaishnavism, this was the name of a deity made of sapphire that was venerated by the aboriginal Savara people, whose leader was known as Vishvavasu.[2]
