बख्राबाद-हत्या #५२

Event occured on 1971-05-24 (gregorian).

A massacre and rape of the Hindu population of Bakhrabad village, in the district of the Comilla, on 24 May 1971 by the Pakistani army with the help of Al Badr and Al Shams.

The attackers went from house to house, indiscriminately killing men, women, and children. They also set fire to homes and looted the village. The attack lasted for several hours, and by the time it was over, hundreds of people were dead.

Aftermath

The Bakhrabad massacre was widely reported in the international media, which put pressure on the Pakistani government to end the violence. However, the Pakistani military continued its campaign of terror in Bangladesh, which led to the deaths of millions of people.

हनुमद्-गुरु-मरणम् #२४

Event occured on 1999-05-24 (gregorian).

On this day died the master wrestler Vijay Pal Yadav (1901–1999) aka Guru Hanuman in a car crash. Guru Hanuman was fit and actively coaching, consuming large amounts of ghee and milk, even in his late 90s. He died on 24 May 1999, at the age of 98, not of old age or any ailments, but in a car crash! He was on his way to Haridwar to bathe in the holy Ganga.

He founded an akhada to train wrestlers in 1925 with the help of K. K. Birla. Guru Hanuman coached or mentored the brightest Indian wrestlers for decades. His students got Arjuna Awards, won medals at Asian Games and Commonwealth Games, and represented India at the Olympics. After K. D. Jadhav’s bronze in 1952, India did not have a wrestling medal in Olympics for 56 years. Then came Sushil Kumar, a ‘praśiṣya’ (grand-disciple) of Guru Hanuman. Sushil Kumar was coached by Satpal Singh, a disciple of Guru Hanuman. Sushil Kumar won a bronze in 2008 and silver in 2012. Yogeshwar Dutt (bronze in 2012) also trained under Satpal Singh. So did Ravi Kumar Dahiya (silver in 2020).

शिवराजो रामसिंहेन रक्षितः #३५७

Event occured on 1666-05-24 (gregorian). Julian date was converted to Gregorian in this reckoning.

On this day, rAmasiMha, son fo jayasiMha, protected shivAjI’s life.

Those like begam jahAn-ara, javar khAn and jaswant singh kept egging awrangzeb after shivAjI had angrily left awrangzeb’s darbaar. Awrangzeb ordered siddi fulAd to take shivAjI to Rad-andaz Khan’s mansion. rAmasiMha, son of jayasiMha, heard of it. He at once rushed to Muhammad Amin Khan’s house and interceded with him saying: “The Emperor is thinking of killing Shivaji. But he has come here under a solemn assurance of safe conduct (kaul). So it is proper that the Emperor should first kill me, summon my son and kill him and only then kill Shivaji.” So Muhammad Amin Khan went to the Emperor and reported Ram Singh’s words. Whereupon the Emperor said: “Tell Ram Singh to stand surety for Shivaji. If Shivaji escapes or does any mischief Ram Singh will be responsible. Let Ram Singh give a security bond in writing.” When Muhammad Amin Khan returned and narrated this to Ram Singh, he agreed to give a security bond.

He returned to his camp and briefed Shivaji in the night of 14th May 1666. Shivaji came to Ram Singh the following morning, performed worship (puja) of Shiva there and gave his solemn assurance. Then Ram Singh wrote the security bond and gave it to Muhammad Amin Khan that afternoon in the antechamber (ghuslkhana). When the Khan reported this to the Emperor he took the bond and ordered: “Tell Ram Singh to take Shivaji to Kabul. Find an auspicious day to begin the journey.” Luckily, shivAjI visited and bribed Javar khAn to get pardoned for his “offences” and get that order cancelled.

श्रीनिवासमङ्गापुरे साक्षात्कार-वैभवोत्सव-आरम्भः

The temple of Sri Kalyana Venkateswara Swamy, which has been a center of devotion from ancient times, once fell into disrepair. It was later renovated by Chinna Tirumalacharya, the grandson of Sri Tallapaka Annamacharya, as evidenced by an inscription dated March 22nd, 1510 CE at the temple’s entrance. Despite regaining its glory for several years, the temple again faced neglect in the 20th century.

In 1940, an Archaka named Sri Sundara Raja Swamy from Kanchi, inspired by a dream in which Sri Kalyana Venkateswara Swamy appeared, took it upon himself to clean the temple premises and resume regular pujas. He conveyed his dream to the villagers, narrating how Lord Venkateswara Swamy manifested in the dream and instructed him to restore the temple’s former splendor (Past Vaibhavam) by conducting Deepa Naivedya Aaradhana, after which the Lord vanished from the dream. On July 11, 1940, which was Ashada Shukla Paksha Shashti, Sundara Raja Swamy conducted a special puja, marking the day the deity revealed his divine form to devotees. This event led the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams to initiate the annual “Sakshatkara Vaibhavotsavams.”

“Sakshatkaram” refers to the deity’s holy appearance or Darshan. The Sakshatkara Vaibhavotsavam is a three-day festival that includes the day of the deity’s appearance (Ashada Suddha Shasti) and the days immediately before and after. The first day of the celebration includes a procession of the deity, Sri Kalyana Venkateswara Swamy, along with His consorts, on the Pedda Shesha Vahanam, from the temple to the Kalyana Mandapa, followed by Abhishekam and Unjal Seva in the evening. The second day features Hanumantha Vahana Seva, and the third day concludes with the Garuda Vahana Seva at night. These celebrations provide devotees the opportunity to witness the deity and receive blessings.
