The story of the Udupi Sri Krishna Temple in Karnataka revolves around Devaki, Rukmini, Vishwakarma, Madhvacharya, Saligrama, and the town of Udupi. It's believed that Krishna, to fulfill Devaki's desire to relive his childhood, had an idol crafted from Saligrama stone by Vishwakarma, the architect, and gifted it to his wife, Rukmini. After Krishna's time, the idol, covered in sand, was eventually found by a sailor, who then gave it to Madhvacharya
