B Correct answer
Explanation

Daru Bramha refers to the sacred neem wood from which the main deities of Jagannath Temple are carved during the Nabakalebara ceremony. This term combines 'Daru' (wood) and 'Bramha' (divine), signifying that the wood itself is considered divine. The other options are not related to the sacred wood - Neelechakra refers to the blue wheel, Patita Pawana is another name for the deity, and Saradha Bali is an offering.
