क्या आप जानते हैं?

मांडव्य ऋषि कौन थे जिनके शापवश धर्मराज को एक दासीपुत्र बनकर जन्म लेना पड़ा। वह दासीपुत्र ही आगे चलकर विदुर कहलाये। विदुर बड़े ज्ञानी थे और हमेशा धर्म की बात करते थे।

अक्रूर जी जब हस्तिनापुर में विदुर से मिलकर आते हैं तो वे श्री कृष्ण से कहते हैं कि...

...महात्मा विदुर आपके परम भक्त हैं और वे आपसे मिलने के लिए उतावले हैं।तब श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं कि मैं भी धर्मराज से मिलने के लिए उतावला हूं। यह सुनकर अक्रूर जी आश्चर्य से कहते हैं,"धर्मराज!" तब श्री कृष्ण कहते हैं,"हां अक्रूर जी। आपने सही सुना।मैं धर्मराज से मिलने के लिए उतावला हूं।

क्योंकि विदुर साक्षात धर्मराज हैं जिन्होनें मांडव्य ऋषि के शाप के चलते इस धरती पर मनुष्य रूप में जन्म लिया है।"

चलिए जानते हैं मांडव्य ऋषि की कथा।
मांडव्य ऋषि एक महान तपस्वी थे जो खांडव वन में अपने आश्रम की एक कुटिया में रहते थे।एकदिन कुछ लुटेरे दौड़ते हुए ऋषि के आश्रम कीओर आए।

उन लुटेरों ने ऋषि से कहा कि कुछ लुटेरे हमारे पीछे पड़े हैं जो हमें जान से मारकर हमारा सारा धन लूटना चाहते हैं। हम व्यापारी हैं, कृप्या हमारी रक्षा करें और हमें आसरा दें। मांडव्य ऋषि उन लूटेरों को व्यापारी समझ उनकी सहायता करते हैं और कहते हैं कि अपना धन कुटिया में छुपा दो।

और तुम पीछे के रास्ते से भाग जाओ। लुटेरे धन छिपा कर वहां से भाग जाते हैं और तभी राजा के सिपाही वहां आ जाते हैं और वे ऋषि को लुटेरों की सहायता के आरोप में पकड़ लेते हैं। सिपाही सोचते हैं कि ये साधू भी उन लुटेरों के साथ मिला हुआ है और मांडव्य ऋषि को पकड़कर ले जाते हैं।

🌺ॐ जयंती मंगला काली भद्रकाली कपालिनी
दुर्गा क्षमा शिवा धात्री स्वाहा स्वधा नमोऽस्तु‍ते।🌺

Navratri is one of the most important and widely celebrated festivals in India, with devotees to the Goddess Durga honoring her nine forms over the nine days.

During this period, devotees observe a fast, perform a worship ritual called puja and celebrate the nine displays of Durga’s feminine power to the world.

Each day is marked with a different color and worshippers dress in the colors which correspond to each day.

The 10th day after the nine nights is celebrated as Vijayadashmi, the celebration of good over evil. It is also called Dussehra or Vijayadashami.

Here is a list of the colors with the dates and their significance :

Day 1 signifies the color yellow and the tithi is named Ghatasthapana or Pratipada. The Shailputri– the daughter of the Mountain King Himavat– form of Durga is worshipped on this day.Yellow signifies joy and cheerfulness.
Day 2 signifies the color green and the tithi is Dwitiya.

On this day Brahmacharini, the unmarried form of the goddess Durga, is adored and worshipped. Green denotes various aspects of nature and its nourishing qualities.
Day 3 signifies the color grey and the tithi is Tritiya or Chaturthi.

Do you know, how did the term 'Tree Hugger' originate? Who inspired the Chipko Movement and who was Amrita Devi Bishnoi?

The first tree huggers were 294 men and 69 women belonging to the Bishnois branch of Hinduism,who,in 1730,died while trying to protect the trees in their...

..village from being turned into the raw material for building a palace. They literally clung to the trees, while being slaughtered by the foresters. But their action led to a royal decree prohibiting the cutting of trees in any Bishnoi village. And now those villages are...

...virtual wooded oases amidst an otherwise desert landscape. The Bishnoi community is often called the protector of wildlife and environment in Western Rajasthan, at times going to lengths for their cause. One of the more well-known cases that catapulted them to fame was when...

...the community dragged Bollywood actor Salman Khan to court for allegedly killing two blackbucks in 1998 near Jodhpur. The community followed the case with dogged conviction for 20 years.
Bishnoism as a sect has 29 tenets that its followers are expected to abide by,..

...refraining from cutting green trees is one of them. In 1730, a local woman called Amrita Devi Bishnoi of the present day Khejrali village near Jodhpur was so steadfast in her belief of this tenet that she stood with an unwavering courage against a royal troop assigned to cut..

🌺आचमन क्या है और इसे तीन बार ही क्यों किया जाता है ?🌺

पूजा, यज्ञ आदि आरंभ करने से पूर्व शुद्धि के लिए मंत्र पढ़ते हुए जल पीना ही आचमन कहलाता है। इससे मन और हृदय की शुद्धि होती है।

धर्मग्रंथों में तीन बार आचमन करने के संबंध में कहा गया है।

प्रथमं यत् पिवति तेन ऋग्वेद प्रीणाति। यद् द्वितीयं तेन यजुर्वेदं प्रीणाति यद् तृतीयं तेन सामवेदं प्रीणाति॥

अर्थात् तीन बार आचमन करने से तीनों वेद यानी-ऋग्वेद,यजुर्वेद,सामवेद प्रसन्न होकर सभी मनोकामनाएं पूर्ण करते हैं।
मनु महाराज के मतानुसार
त्रिराचामेदपः पूर्वम्।
-मनुस्मृति2/60

अर्थात् सबसे पहले तीन बार आचमन करना चाहिए। इससे कंठशोषण दूर होकर, कफ़ निवृत्ति के कारण श्वसन क्रिया में व मंत्रोच्चारण में शुद्धता आती है। इसीलिए प्रत्येक धार्मिक कृत्य के शुरू में और संध्योपासन के मध्य बीच-बीच में अनेक बार तीन की संख्या में आचमन का विधान बनाया गया है।

इसके अलावा यह भी माना जाता है कि इससे कायिक, मानसिक और वाचिक तीनों प्रकार के पापों की निवृत्ति होकर न दिखने वाले फल की प्राप्ति होती है।

अंगूठे के मूल में ब्रह्मतीर्थ, कनिष्ठा के मूल प्रजापत्यतीर्थ, अंगुलियों के अग्रभाग में देवतीर्थ, तर्जनी और अंगूठे के बीच पितृतीर्थ और

हाथ के मध्य भाग में सौम्यतीर्थ होता है, जो देवकर्म में प्रशस्त माना गया है। आचमन हमेशा ब्रह्मतीर्थ से करना चाहिए। आचमन करने से पहले अंगुलियां मिलाकर एकाग्रचित्त यानी एकसाथ करके पवित्र जल से बिना शब्द किए 3 बार आचमन करने से महान फल मिलता है। आचमन हमेशा 3 बार करना चाहिए।

SRI YANTRA & ITS SIGNIFICANCE
According to ancient Hindu Scriptures,the Sri Yantra is the symbol of Hindu Tantra,which is based on Hindu philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism.Sri Yantra is the object of devotion in Sri Vidya.
Few of the important Yantras r Ganesh,Meru,Saraswati Yantra.

A Yantra in the Hindu tradition is, literally a device for spiritual advancement.The Sri Yantra is, in fact, the central object of worship in at least one important Hindu cult, but beyond its specific context,the Sri Yantra embodies profound philosophical understandings.

That makes it a powerful source of inspiration.Each design element of the Sri Yantra has special philosophical significance.The dot in the very center is representative of the Source of the universe; this dot,or bindu,is the "singularity" from which all manifest reality emerges.

From one point of view, the design is representative of the evolution of the universe itself from its mysterious beginnings, charting its many levels.
The Sri Yantra in its central portion contains nine triangles.

Four of them point upward &represent unmanifest power of the universe;all that is beyond our sense perceptions.They r thought of as being masculine &represent masculine aspect of divinity. Five downward-pointing triangles represent divine feminine &manifest aspects of the world.

🌺The 16 Kalas of Sri Krishn are the divine arts or attributes of Sri Krishn that makes him Purna Avatar – the complete avatar.🌺

But do you know that Prabhu Sri Ram had only 14 Kalas?

And, there is a reason behind it. First let's see what are the 16 Kalas of Sri Krishn?

1. Daya – Compassion
2. Dharjya – Patience
3. Kshama – Forgiveness
4. Nyaya – Justice
5. Nirapeksha – Impartiality
6. Niraskata – Detachment
7. Tapasya – Meditation and Spiritual Powers
8. Aparchitta – Invincibility

9. Danasheel – Beneficience, Bestower of all wealth in the world and nature.
10. Saundarjyamaya – Beauty Incarnate
11. Nrityajna – Best of Dancers
12. Sangitajna – Best of Singers
13. Neetibadi – Embodiment of Honesty
14. Satyabadi – Truth Itself

15. Sarvagnata – Perfect master of all arts, such as poetry, drama, painting etc.
16. Sarvaniyanta – Controller of All.

Sri Ram is complete and absolute; he is the God himself and everything is in him, from him.

However, he is not a complete incarnation as compared to Sri Krishn who is a Poorna Avatar, as he possessed the 14 out of 16 Kalas or qualities in him and 2 were not to be seen. Now there is a reason behind it.

WHAT THE VYMANIKA SHASTRA TELLS US ABOUT ANCIENT VIMANAS OF INDIA?

On 28 June 1951, the then Maharaja of #Mysuru inaugurated the International #sanskrit Research Centre in Mysuru. CM of Mysuru state CK Reddy was present and GR Josyer was the Director of that research centre.

The guests were shown all the rare collections of #Sanskrit scriptures and literature gathered from various sources. It was an impressive collection but there was one small handwritten notebook which surprised them the most. That book was "Vymanika Shastra of Mahrishi Bhardwaj".

It was a strange title for the guests &nobody heard about it before.The book contained 6000 lines &1000s of Shlokas in Sanskrit.This knowledge was verbatim transferred by Mahrishi Bhardwaj to Subbaraya Shastri through psychic channeling that was what was told to amused audience.

GR Josyer subsequently translated this book in Sanskrit to English.
"Vymanika Shastra" was part of "Yantra Sarvasva". All these works were verbatim recited and dictated by Subbaraya Shastri after he came out of forest and started living in Anekal near #Bengaluru.

Wen his book Vymanika Shastra was raising many eyebrows, Britishers jailed him under pretext of being freedom fighter.Within few mnths of imprisonment he died of long illness.Fortunately some people saved his works safely. When GR Josyer got to know about it he got it translated.

NAGA in Sanskrit means mountain, people residing in and around mountains are known as Pahadi or Naga.
The history of NAGA SADHUS is very old,the traces of legacy are found in Mohenjo-Daro coins & images where Naga Sadhus are shown worshipping Bhagwan Shiv in Pashupatinath form.

Alexander and his soldiers also met Naga Sadhus during their stay in India. Buddha and Mahavira were impressed to see the penance of Naga Sadhus, their devotion for the people and motherland.
During the invasion of mlecchaas( mughals), there were series of attacks on Sanatanis..

...and Hindu structures. At that time, a massive exercise was carried over by Naga Sadhus to organise their strength and form Akhadas so that they all fight under one saffron flag to protect Hindu Culture and Vedic traditions of India.

Naga Sadhus protected ancient Hindu Temples from invaders. During ancient times, Naga Sadhus were taught to fight the invaders ferociously. They were equipped with Talwars, Trishuls, Gadaas, Teer Kamaans and strategic skills to protect Mandirs and Matths.

Aurangzeb's special army of Muslims who was established to destroy Hindu Temples &structures was defeated myriad times.These terrorist Muslim invaders were killed by Naga Sadhus in the war for Dharma in which the ferocious Nagas protected Mandirs & kept alive Shiv Bhakti..

झूला देवी मंदिर, चौबातिया रानीखेत🚩

झूला देवी मंदिर रानीखेत शहर से 7 किमी की दुरी पर स्थित एक लोकप्रिय पवित्र एवम् धार्मिक मंदिर है |यह मंदिर माँ दुर्गा को समर्पित है एवम् इस मंदिर को झूला देवी के रूप में नामित किया गया है | स्थानीय लोगों के अनुसार यह मंदिर 700 वर्ष पुराना है |

रानीखेत में स्थित झूला देवी मंदिर पहाड़ी स्टेशन पर एक आकर्षण का स्थान है |यह भारत के उत्तराखंड राज्य में अल्मोड़ा जिले के चैबटिया गार्डन के निकट रानीखेत से 7 किमी की दूरी पर स्थित है।वर्तमान मंदिर परिसर 1935 में बनाया गया है|झूला देवी मंदिर के समीप ही भगवान राम का मंदिर भी है ।

झूला देवी मंदिर को घंटियों वाला मंदिर के रूप में भी जाना जाता है | हिंदू पौराणिक कथाओं के अनुसार इस मंदिर का निर्माण क्षेत्र में रहने वाले जंगली जानवरों द्वारा उत्पीड़न से मुक्त कराने के लिए मां दुर्गा की कृपा बनाये रखने के उद्देश्य से किया गया था ।

मंदिर परिसर में झूला स्थापित होने के कारण देवी को “झूला देवी” नाम से पूजा जाता है |

मां के झूला झूलने के बारे में एक और कथा प्रचलित है। माना जाता है कि एक बार श्रावण मास में माता ने किसी व्यक्ति को स्वप्न में दर्शन देकर झूला झूलने की इच्छा जताई।

Mahabharata starts with the following verse:

🌺नारायणम नमसकृत्य
नरम चैव नरोत्तमम,
देविम सरस्वतिम चैव
ततो जयमुदिरायत।।🌺

“‘Jaya’ must be recited after having bowed in obeisance before Narayana and also Nara, the supreme human being, and also the goddess Sarasvati.”

Narayan, the supreme lord and Nara, the exalted human being, are together worshipped along with goddess Saraswati, before reciting the Epic. The Mahabharata identifies Krishna with Narayana and Arjuna with Nara in the divine pair.

The legend of Nara-Narayana is also told in the scripture Bhagavata Purana. Nara and Narayana were both considered as Gods and Rishis, who took birth as sons of Dharma through his wife Murti who was a daughter of Daksha.

Nara and Narayana travelled to the hermitage of Badri in their golden wagons and engaged in fierce austerities there.

Badrinath Mandir's sanctorium, to the far right side of the stone image of Badri-Vishala
(or Badri-Narayana), are the images of Nara and Narayana.

Also, the Nara and Narayana peaks tower over Badrinath.

The Swaminarayan sect worships Nara-Narayana Deva and they are believed to reside at Badrikashram and to be the prime controllers of the destiny of all beings, depending on their karma.

🌺Lalitaditya Muktapida: The Great Hindu King of Kashmir who missed our text books.🌺

Lalitaditya Muktapida was the great Hindu King of Kashmir who belonged to the Karkorta Dynasty and provided heroic resistance to the foreign invaders.

He remained undefeated throughout his reign & expanded his empire in all directions.
The famous book Rajatarangini which was written in 12th century had given us details of the golden age of Kashmir.
The rise of Karkota dynasty of Kashmir was the turning point in Indian history.

This great dynasty was founded by Durlabha-vardhana. Many eminent historians claim that this king was married to the daughter of Baladitya the last king of the Gonanda dynasty.
Lalitaditya ascended the throne about 724 CE and was the fifth ruler of the Karkota Dynasty.

He was a follower of expansionist policy and wanted to conquer the neighboring kingdoms.
He also defeated the powerful king of Kannauj i.e Yasovarman and emerged as a champion of north India.

Kalhana also mentioned that the king of Kashmir undertook a World Wide Campaign and reached the sea coast of east India (Kalinga).
Here the king of Gaur (Bengal)is believed to be the first king to accept the suzerainty and sent several elephants to the king of Kashmir in respect.

We all know that Tirupati Tirumala Devasthanam is the richest and one of the most revered shrines in India. But, there are so many interesting mystical facts out there beyond the commonly known trivia. Let us know about some of them:
-Idol of Prabhu is not at the centre.

Idol of the Prabhu appears to be standing in the centre of the Sanctorum but technically it is not. The Idol is placed actually at the right hand corner of the Shrine.

-Real Hair of Balaji: The hair worn by Prabhu are smooth, silky, tangle free and absolutely real.

There is a story behind those faultless locks.
During his regime on earth Prabhu Balaji lost his hair in an unexpected mishap.A Gandharva Princess named Neela Devi cut a portion of her glorious silky mane &offered them humbly to the Deity &requested him to plant them on his head.

Pleased with her devotion,the God accepted the kind offering and promised that whoever visits his shrine and sacrifices his/her hair at his feet will be blessed.Ever since, it has been a custom among devotees to shave their head-off in the temple after their wishes are fulfilled.

-Sea Waves behind Prabhu Balaji's Idol: You may not believe until you hear for yourself. The sound of enormous seawaves can be heard if one puts his/her ear on the back of the deity's idol housed in the Shrine.

-Perpetual lit lamps:The light of the earthen lamps placed before...

What is wrong about Bharat becoming a Hindu Rashtra?

Bharatvarsh is a 5000 yrs old civilization &its the original homeland of Hindus,where about 95%of all Hindus in the world live. Its the birthplace of Sanatan Dharma then why should Bharat not recognise its true identity?

Why should Bharat not recognise its true identity of Hindu Rashtra?
Hinduism is the third largest religion in the world after Christianity & Islam but it's demographics are not the same. Xtianity and Islam are spread world wide, whereas Hinduism is geographically concentrated.

97% of all Hindus live in only India, Mauritius & Nepal. Out of it 95% of world's hindus live in India alone whereas only 1.6% of Muslims remain in Arabia. You can see that Muslims are spreading exponentially everywhere other than their birth place ie Arabia.

Wheras the left-liberals have no problem with 53 Muslim countries,out of which Islam is the official religion in 27 & 100 plus Xtian countries,out of which Xtianity is the official religion in 15,but when we talk about India becoming Hindu Rashtra,their secularism is endangered.

All faiths(Parsis, Jains, Sikhs ,Muslims,Xtians etc.)have flourished in India bcoz Hindus r not intolerant towards another religions.There is no concept of conversion in Hinduism.There r Xtian&Muslim nations in the world, who raise voice on Human rights&Muslim Xtian persecutions.

Do you know?

In the Hindu way of life, this prayer is adopted while sitting on the bed at the time of waking up in the morning:

कराग्रे वसते लक्ष्मिः करमध्ये सरस्वति।
करमूले तु गोविन्दः प्रभाते करदर्शनम् ॥
🌺🌺🌺

And how many Hindus really follow this ?

The meaning is very simple: knowledge, power and wealth depend on the work with your hand.

कराग्रे = in the front of the hand i.e. fingers; वसते = lives;

लक्ष्मी = the divinity of prosperity (material and spiritual) [from the word lakShya = goal];

कर-मध्ये सरस्वती = in the middle of the palm; lives the divinity of learning, knowledge;

कर-मूले तू गोविंद: = in the wrist lives the universal guide of righteousness - Krishna.

प्रभाते कर दर्शनम = Every morning ones should looked at all these divine personalities...

...so that with them in your hand thus; you will enlightened day ahead.

For making us sit for some more time the second part of the prayer is added:

समुद्र वसने देवी पर्वत: स्थाना मंडले,
विष्णु पत्नी: नमस्तुभ्यम,
पादा स्पर्शम क्षमास्वमे।।🌺

The meaning is very simple: Oh ! Mother earth, where the mountains are part of your body and you are the wife of Prabhu Mahavishnu, May I perform my pranam to you?

Do you know?

Why number 108 is so pious in Vedic Sanatan Dharma?

As per Vedic science,the universe is made up of 108 elements.And why 108 is auspicious for Hindus? Let us understand,there r many reasons.

Vedic cosmology believes diameter of Sun is 108.7 times that of earth.

The distance between earth and sun is 108 times the sun.

The distance between earth and moon is 108 times the diameter of the moon.

Our eyes can see up to 3 dimensions but sages could perceive with their yogic powers beyond these real metaphysical dimensions.

Power of 1= 1; Power of 2= 4; Power of 3= 27. And 1x4x27 = 108. This way our eyes perceive matter.

Shiva Purana records 108 Karanas in Tandava (Cosmic dance) as employed in Yoga, Vedic martial Arts part of Dhanurvidya, Kalaripayattu and Kung Fu.

SriYantra is made of Marmas which r intersection of 3 lines. There r 54 such intersections,each having masculine(Purusha)- consciousness&feminine (Prakriti)-matter,qualities.
Thus,there r 54×2=108 points.Sri Yantra is made up of 54 Pentagons&each angle of Pentagon is 108degrees.

The Atman or the human consciousness goes through 108 stages on its journey post death.

In Vedic Astrology, there are 12 houses and 9 planets. 12 times 9 equals 108.

Tantra estimates,in 1 minute, a healthy human breathes 15 times, in 1 hour 900 times and in 12 hrs 10800 times.

More than 50,000 years old artifacts are found in Tamil Nadu. History of India is surprisingly vast and exquisite than was ever taught to us.

Dating of these artifacts recovered from the sites (293 Tamil Sagam sites, Vaigai River, Madurai) is a challenge to C14,..

...Carbon dating,as C14 is useless in dating anything beyond 50000 years.This,coupled with the systematic misinformation about Indian history by the Agenda filled western scholars, straight from Max Mueller to present day pseudo researchers from the West,the self styled..

...secularists and Anglophiles, who try to muddle our history and our general reluctance to study our regional and Sanskrit texts and our labelling them as myth,without bothering to read them, has led us to be unaware of our history.

..And the north south divide, the hoax of Aryan Invasion and the lie of Tamils and Dravidas being antagonistic to Vedic culture has made us look at Indian history in compartments.

The Tamil/ Dravidian culture was and is a part of Sanatan Dharma and existed along with it.

कार्तिक मास की पूर्णिमा को त्रिपुरारी पूर्णिमा भी कहते हैं। धर्म ग्रंथों के अनुसार, इसी दिन भगवान शिव ने तारकाक्ष, कमलाक्ष व विद्युन्माली के त्रिपुरों का नाश किया था। त्रिपुरों का नाश करने के कारण ही भगवान शिव का एक नाम त्रिपुरारी भी प्रसिद्ध है।

भगवान शिव के त्रिपुरारी कहलाने के पीछे एक बहुत ही रोचक कथा है। शिव पुराण के अनुसार जब भगवान शिव के पुत्र कार्तिकेय ने दैत्यराज तारकासुर का वध किया तो उसके तीन पुत्र तारकक्ष, विमलाकक्ष, तथा विद्युन्माली अपने पिता की मृत्यु पर बहुत दुखी हुए।

उन्होंने देवताओ और भगवान शिव से अपने पिता की मृत्यु का बदला लेने की ठानी तथा कठोर तपस्या के लिए ऊंचे पर्वतो पर चले गए। अपनी घोर तपस्या के बल पर उन्होंने ब्रह्मा जी को प्रसन्न किया और उनसे अमरता का वरदान माँगा। परन्तु ब्रह्मा जी ने कहा की मैं तुम्हे यह वरदान देने में असमर्थ हूँ

अतः मुझ से कोई अन्य वरदान मांग लो। तब तारकासुर के तीनो पुत्रो ने ब्रह्मा जी से कहा की आप हमारे लिए तीन पुरों का निर्माण करवाइये तथा इन पुरों के अंदर बैठे-बैठे हम पृथ्वी का भ्रमण आकाश मार्ग से करते रहें। जब एक हजार साल बाद यह पुर एक दूसरे के पीछे एक ही दिशा में आयें...

...उस समय जो कोई देवता इन त्रिपुरों को केवल एक ही बाण में नष्ट कर दे वही हमारी मृत्यु का कारण बने।

ब्रह्माजी ने तीनो को यह वरदान दे दिया व एक मयदानव को प्रकट किया। ब्रह्माजी ने मयदानव से तीन पुरों का निर्माण करवाया जिनमे पहला सोने का दूसरा चांदी का व तीसरा लोहे का था।

🌺Do you know the great King of Bahraich named Suheldev?
Here's his story.🌺

The Ghznavid invasions had crippled India like no other invasion ever before. Mahmud of Ghzni was perhaps one of the first invaders to actually dent the strong Indian defences after alexander the great.

But ultimately he couldn’t follow up with the empire as his kingdom stopped at the north western region of India.

His nephew, Salar Masud would go on to continue his dream of raiding and plundering India every single year.

As a young upstart, Salar showed ferocity just like his uncle while his martial fervour eclipsed even that of his warrior ancestors.

At a young age of 16 he led his army to capture various parts of northern India including Ajmer and Delhi by the help of the Ghaznavid Army.

His eastward expansion continued till he reached the region of Bahraich.

Throughout his journey, the bardic tales states that he plundered temples and monasteries, showing to the populace how weak their local rulers were.

But this king of Shravastavi was different.

Suheldev was the valiant son of Mordhwaj and a very just ruler.

He was the one who united all the northern kingdoms under one rule to oppose the oncoming assault.

क्या आप जानते हैं?

उत्तराखंड में एक ऐसा रहस्यमय मंदिर है, जहां माता की मूर्ति दिन में तीन बार अपना स्वरूप बदलती है।

भारत में रहस्यमय और प्राचीन मंदिरों की कोई कमी नहीं है। एक ऐसा ही मंदिर उत्तराखंड के श्रीनगर से करीब 14 किलोमीटर की दूरी पर स्थित है।

यहां हर दिन एक चमत्कार होता है, जिसे देखकर लोग हैरान हो जाते हैं। दरअसल,इस मंदिर में मौजूद माता की मूर्ति दिन में तीन बार अपना रूप बदलती है।मूर्ति सुबह में एक कन्या की तरह दिखती है,फिर दोपहर में युवती और शाम को एक बूढ़ी महिला की तरह नजर आती है।यह नजारा हैरान कर देने वाला होता है।

इस मंदिर को धारी देवी मंदिर के नाम से जाना जाता है। यह मंदिर झील के ठीक बीचों-बीच स्थित है। देवी काली को समर्पित इस मंदिर के बारे में मान्यता है कि यहां मौजूद मां धारी उत्तराखंड के चारधाम की रक्षा करती हैं। इस माता को पहाड़ों और तीर्थयात्रियों की रक्षक देवी माना जाता है।

एक पौराणिक कथा के अनुसार, एक बार भीषण बाढ़ से मंदिर बह गया था। साथ ही साथ उसमें मौजूद माता की मूर्ति भी बह गई और वह धारो गांव के पास एक चट्टान से टकराकर रुक गई। कहते हैं कि उस मूर्ति से एक ईश्वरीय आवाज निकली, जिसने गांव वालों को उस जगह पर मूर्ति स्थापित करने का निर्देश दिया।

इसके बाद गांव वालों ने मिलकर वहां माता का मंदिर बना दिया। पुजारियों की मानें तो मंदिर में मां धारी की प्रतिमा द्वापर युग से ही स्थापित है।

कहते हैं कि मां धारी के मंदिर को साल 2013 में तोड़ दिया गया था और उनकी मूर्ति को उनके मूल स्थान से हटा दिया गया था,..
