Once upon a time ago there was a king named Indradyumna and he was a great devotee of Lord Vishnu and he was very keen on meeting the Lord in person. Once by the Lord�s arrangement, a devotee of the Lord arrived in king Indradyumna�s court and during the course of his conversation with the king, he began talking about an incarnation of Lord Vishnu in the name of Nila-Madhava. King Indradyumna who had been eagerly waiting to meet the Lord Himself, was overjoyed when he heard the news. He immediately sent different Brahmanas in multiple directions to search and inquire about Lord Nila-Madhava. All of the Brahmanas were unsuccessful in locating Lord Nila-Madhava except one brahman named Vidyapati. After visiting many places in search of Lord Nila-Madhava, Vidyapati finally reached a place whose population was that of a non-Aryan type and they were known as Sabara. Vidyapati took shelter in the house of a local named Vishvasu.
