Porbandar, Gujarat · 21.6425°, 69.6097°
One of the very few Indian temples dedicated to a mortal rather than a god, standing in Porbandar, the old Sudamapuri held to be Sudama's home. A modest early shrine, it was enlarged by Bhavsinhji Madhavsinhji into the present temple.
What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.
Sudama is remembered for going to Krishna in his poverty, a journey held up as the measure of true friendship.
