Takshak, A Hindu Worrier
An Untold and Forgotten Story

Let’s talk about a brave Hindu warrior, Takshak, who has been forgotten by the modern era.

#Thread

1/18

Let’s look at his story of valor and incredible sacrifice. At a tender age of 8-years, Takshak lost his father as well as his mother and two sisters. His mother killed his sisters and herself, in front of his eyes so that no one could sexually assault them or rape them.
2/18

On the other hand, Takshak’s father was a soldier of Sindhu’s King Dahir, who had martyred in the battle with the army of Muhammad bin Qasim. After this war, the Arab army as if wreaked havoc.
3/18

In Qasim’s campaign, not a single person of a young age was left alive and many temples and monasteries were also destroyed. Almost 25 years had passed and now the 8-year-old orphan was a 32-year-old man. He was the bodyguard of the mighty ruler Nagabhatta II of Kannauj.
4/ 18

The revenge was hidden somewhere in the mind of Takshak, the revenge of his mother and sisters, the revenge of his father, but his first duty was to follow the norms and teachings of Hindu Dharma.

सृष्टि की रचना व भगवान विष्णु के बीच चार का महत्व

भगवान विष्णु की चार भुजाएं होती हैं। यह जग विख्यात है। कहा जाता है कि चार का अंक ऐसा अंक है, जिससे इस सृष्टि का निर्माण हुआ है।

चार भुजाधारी भगवान विष्णु के भीतर जब सृष्टि रचना की इच्छा हुई तो उनकी नाभि से चतुर्भुज ब्रह्माजी का जन्म हुआ। ब्रम्हा के हाथों में चार वेद क्रमशः 'ऋग्वेद, सामवेद, यजुर्वेद और अथर्वेद' थे।

ब्रह्माजी ने विष्णु जी की आज्ञानुसार विश्व के प्राणियों को चार वर्गों 'अण्डज, जरायुज, स्वेदज एवं उदभिज' में बांटा और उन प्राणियों की जीवन व्यवस्था को भी चार अवस्थाओं में बांट दिया। जिनमें 'जाग्रत, स्वप्न, सुषुप्ति एवं तुरीय में की।'

इसके बाद उन्होंने काल को चार युगों 'सतयुग, त्रेतायुग, द्वापरयुग और कलयुग में बांट दिया।' विष्णु जी ने सृष्टि की रचना अपने चार मानस पुत्रों 'सनक, सनंदन, सनत्कुमार तथा सनातन' से प्रारंभ की

लेकिन वे चारों मानस पुत्र भगवान के चार धामों 'बदरीनाथ धाम, रामेश्वरधाम, द्वारकाधाम और जगन्नाथ धाम' में भगवान विष्णु की भक्ति करने चले गए।

Swayambhu Manu had two sons- Priyavrata and Utaanpaad. Utaanpaad had two wives- Suruchi and Suniti. Suruchi had a son- Uttam while Suniti had also a son- Dhruv. King Utaanpaad loved Suruchi more than he loved Suniti.

One day the king was sitting on the throne. Prince Uttam was playing in his lap. Meanwhile Dhruv also arrived there and insisted to play in the lap of his father. At his insistence, queen Suruchi ridiculed that as he was not born to her he had no right to the king’s love, …

"so your insistence is useless. Though you are also a son of this king but this throne belongs to my son. Don’t you know that you have been born to Suniti."

Getting angry over his stepmother’s ridicules, Dhruv went to his mother. Suniti consoled her son and enquired about the reason for his anger. Dhruv narrated the whole thing to his mother.

Which is the World’s oldest Tape Recorder? by Sri Kanchi Paramacharya Mahaswami
Once way back in 1940s/50s someone was conducting an interview with Kanchi Mahaperiyava. That gentleman recorded the interview in a Tape recorder.
@justRamvenkat @KanchiMatham

Periyava then posed a question:
“Does anyone know which is the oldest known #tape #recorder?”
Nobody was able to answer. Then Mahaperiyava asked another question:
“How did #Vishnu #Sahasranamam come to us?”
Everyone said Bhishma Pitamah gave it.
All agreed. @Itishree001

Then #Mahaperiyava posed another query:
“When all were listening to Vishnu Sahasranamam, who took Notes at #Kurukshetra thousands of years back?”
Again silence.
Mahaperiyava started replying to everyone.
“When Bhishma Pitamah was glorifying Lord Krishna with Sahasranama i.e,

His 1000 Names, Everyone was looking at him including Krishna & Veda Vyasa. After he finished 1000 Namas, everyone opened their eyes. First to react was Yudhishtra. He said, Pithamaha chanted 1000 glorious names of Vasudeva. Everyone listened but nobody bothered to

note it down. Now the 1000 Namas will be lost!” Then all prayed to Krishna & asked Him. As usual, He said I also listened like you, so what to do!
Then all prayed to Krishna how to get back the 1000 Namas. Then Krishna said, “It could only be done by Sahadeva & Veda Vyasa

Some talks about Sanskrit, made me write about the Beautiful Story of Bhoja Raja, which was there in my Sanskrit lessons. This is a moral for many of us to follow. Hope everyone will gets its meaning.

Raja Bhoj:-

Bhoja Raja was an honest king. He was well versed in Sanskrit👇

He has honoured many Scholars in his court.

One day Queen was talking with a Pandit's wife in her room. Bhoja Raja was in a hurry and he entered the room to ask Queen something( that does not matter here). Queen stopped talking and called King "MOORKHA" which means fool.

King was totally surprised by this. He didn't get angry to the Queen nor he asked the reason to her. But he was very much disturbed and wanted to know the reason
Rajasabha began and many Pandit's were in the Sabha. King thought of a plan and he called all the Pandit's "MOORKHA"👇

So that he can get his answer without telling.
Everyone were taken aback by this attitude of King. Many went away from the sabha feeling insulted. At that time a great Pandit came and King repeated the same words. Pandit replied to the king
हे राजन

खदन्न गछामी हसन्न भाषे
घतं न शोचमी कृतं न मन्ये

सूतक का पालन किसके लिए करें ?

कई बार मृत्योपरांत के क्रियाकर्म केवल धर्मशास्त्र में बताई गई विधि अथवा परिजनों के प्रति कर्तव्य-पूर्ति के एक भाग के रूप में किया जाता है । अधिकांश लोग इनके महत्त्व अथवा अध्यात्मशास्त्रीय दृष्टिकोण से अपरिचित होते हैं

किसी कर्म के अध्यात्मशास्त्रीय आधार एवं महत्त्व को समझ लेने पर उस पर व्यक्ति का विश्‍वास बढ जाता है और वह उस कर्म को अधिक श्रद्धा से कर पाता है । जन्म-मरण के क्रम में परिजनों के मन सहज स्थिति में नहीं रहते । उनमें राग, शोक, भय आदि का प्रभाव बना रहता है। ते है

विक्षोभ की ऐसी अस्त-व्यस्त मानसिकता में धार्मिक प्रयोग सिद्ध नहीं होते। इसलिए उन विक्षोभों का शमन होने तक उन प्रयोगों को रोककर रखना उचित होता है। दाह संस्कार करने के अधिकार के संदर्भ में सूतक का क्या अर्थ है, यह हम समझकर लेते है ।

१. सूतक का अर्थ
व्यक्ति की मृत्यु होने के पश्‍चात गोत्रज तथा परिजनों को विशिष्ट कालावधि तक अशुचिता होती है, उसे ही सूतक कहते हैं ।

२. सूतक पालन के नियम क्या हैं ?
अ. मृत व्यक्ति के परिजनों को १० दिन तथा अंत्यक्रिया करनेवाले को १२ दिन (सपिंडीकरण तक) सूतक का पालन करना होता है । सात पीढियों के पश्‍चात ३ दिन का सूतक होता है ।

Krishna and the False Vasudeva
#story

Paundraka Vasudeva was a King mentioned in Bhagavatha Purana. He was friend of Jarasandha, the king of Magadha. He believed that he is Vasudeva Krishna.
Once Paundraka Vasudeva received a letter from Shishupala, stating that he wanted

protection from Krishna, because it was Rukmini's wedding and Shishupala thought Krishna would take away Rukmini.

Paundraka Vasudeva agreed and went to Vidarbha, the Kingdom of Shishupala, but failed to provide protection as Krishna took Rukmini away. Paundraka Vasudeva was

feeling sad. His Minister's cheered him.
They said that Paundraka Vasudeva was the real Vasudeva and Krishna is a cheater. Everyone started to believe this and soon Paundraka Vasudeva soon started to taunt Krishna by saying that Krishna was a cheater.
Paundraka Vasudeva then

challenged Krishna to a war and Krishna said that he would give Paundraka his Chakra and Gadha. Paundraka suspected some foul play and went to King of Kashi for his protection. In battlefield, Krishna came in front of Paundraka, and said that he would throw his Chakra and Gadha

to him. But, Krishna's throw was perfect that the Gadha hurled him to the Ground and the Chakra killed him.
Krishna soon killed king of Kashi with an arrow and his head went flying to Kashi.
Thus Victorious Krishna was recieved by people of Dwaraka.
Hare Krishna 🙏🕉🙏
