Jaganath
(gcide) | Juggernaut \Jug"ger*naut`\, n. [Skr. jagann[=a]tha lord of the
world.]
1. One of the names under which Vishnu, in his incarnation as
Krishna, is worshiped by the Hindus. See also Jagannath.
[Written also Juggernnath, Jaganath, Jagannath,

[1913 Webster]
Note: The principal seat of the worship of Juggernaut
(Jagannath) is at P[^u]ri in Orissa. At certain times
the idol is drawn from the temple by the multitude, on
a high car with sixteen wheels. 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 fanatical
devotees threw themselves under the wheels of this car,
to be crushed as a sacrifice to the god. 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. As a result of this erroneous belief,
however, the word juggernaut is now used principally
in the figurative sense 2.
[1913 Webster +PJC]
2. Any large, unstoppable force, power, or popular movement
which defeats or destroys any person who gets in its way
or attempts to stop it; as, for years the Notre Dame
football team was an unstoppable juggernaut; after the
early primaries, Johnson's campaign became a juggernaut,
