The genesis of the Banke Bihari deity, around 1510 CE, represents a profound moment in the Bhakti movement's unfolding in Braj. Swami Haridas Ji Maharaj, a luminary of the Nimbarka Sampradaya, through his intense devotion and musical contemplation in Nidhivan, is credited with the manifestation of this unique form of Krishna. The deity, emerging from the sacred Lalitakunda, was initially worshipped in a simple, secluded shrine within Nidhivan, marking the transition from a purely personal devotional experience to the establishment of a formal place of worship for the divine presence. This initial establishment laid the spiritual bedrock for what would become a major pilgrimage center. The subsequent construction of the present temple in 1864 CE marked a pivotal development, signifying the growing prominence of Banke Bihari and the need for a more expansive and accessible sanctuary. This relocation from Nidhivan to its current site was a significant historical event, transforming the deity's worship from a more intimate, forest-dwelling practice to a grand public darshan. The architectural undertaking, supported by the Goswamis and devotees, reflects the socio-religious dynamics of 19th-century Vrindavan, where increasing pilgrim traffic necessitated larger temple complexes, solidifying Banke Bihari's position as a central icon of Vaishnava devotion in the region.
