अक्षरधाम-हत्या #२२

Event occured on 2002-09-24 (gregorian).

On 24 September 2002 (4:45 pm), Murtaza Hafiz Yasin and Ashraf Ali Mohammad Farooq attacked the Swaminarayan Akshardham complex at Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. They killed 30 people and injured more than 80. This was shortly after the Godhra burning of Hindu pilgrims and the subsequent riots. A priest recalled “a mother begging for the lives of her children-later identified as Priya and Bhailu Chauhan, aged three and four. The woman, Sumitra, had been running with her little boy and girl when she was felled by a bullet in the leg. The killer nodded to her pleas, then turned his gun towards the children and, to the horror of the mother, mowed them down.”

At 4:48 pm, three minutes after the attack began, Vishwavihari Swami, at the Akshardham Temple Complex, made an SOS call to Chief Minister Narendra Modi’s office and informed them about the attack. By 5:15 pm, Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi called the Deputy Prime Minister L.K. Advani in Delhi and asked for the National Security Guards (NSG). At 10:10 pm, two buses of NSG commandos and one bus filled with NSG equipment arrived at Akshardham. By approximately 11:30 pm, after reviewing multiple strategies, 35 Black Cat commandos positioned themselves throughout the Akshardham Temple Complex in an effort to find the terrorists. At approximately 6:45 am, the 14-hour-long ordeal ended with the Black Cat Commandos shooting the two terrorists hiding in the bushes. During this overnight search for the attackers, one state police officer and one commando lost their lives. Another commando, Surjan Singh Bhandari, was seriously injured and died in May 2004, after being in coma for two years.

Aftermath

The head of BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha which manages the temple, Pramukh Swami Maharaj, successfully appealed to maintain peace. Gujarat police later arrested several people, who were sentenced in 2006, but were acquitted in the Supreme Court in 2014.

अनध्यायः

  • 18:00→06:01

When the next day is anadhyayana, for whatever reason, one must not perform adhyayana in the previous night.

हारीतः—
श्वोऽनध्यायेऽद्य शर्वर्यां नाधीयीत कदाचन॥
कालादर्शे—
यदा भवेदनध्यायतिथिरुत्तरभागिनी।
तदा पूर्वतिथौ रात्रौ नाधीयीतेति निश्चयः॥

द्विपुष्कर-योगः

  • 06:01→12:39

When a tripādanakṣatra is conjoined with a bhadrā tithi i.e. dvitīyā, saptamī or dvādaśī, and this falls on a Tuesday, Sunday or Saturday, it is known as a tripuṣkara-yōgaḥ. The dvipuṣkara occurs when the bhadrā tithis coincide with the same days as above, but with the dvipāda nakṣatras, which are mr̥gaśīrṣa, chitrā and dhaniṣṭhā. Like the tripuṣkara which gives a three-fold multiplier for śubha and aśubha, the dvipuṣkara has a two-fold effect.

त्रिपुष्कराख्योऽदितिवह्निविश्वद्वीशाजपादर्यमभेषु योगः।
भद्राख्यतिथ्योऽर्ककुजार्कजाश्चेच्छुभाशुभेषु त्रिगुणः प्रदिष्टः॥२६॥
द्विपुष्करो द्विगुणदचित्राचान्द्रवसुष्वपि।
त एव तिथिवाराश्चेद् गुरुर्वा कैश्चिदुच्यते॥२७॥

जीवपुत्रिकाष्टमी/जीमूतवाहन-पूजा

Observed on Kr̥ṣṇa-Aṣṭamī tithi of Bhādrapadaḥ (lunar) month (Pradōṣaḥ/paraviddha).

Women fast on this day for obtaining progeny, and also perform puja of Jimutavahana. Jimutavahana is an atma-tyagi vidyadhara chakravarti. He saved Shankhachuda’s (Naaga) life by offering himself to Garuda. From that day, Garuda stopped eating snakes.

इषे मास्यसिते पक्षे चाष्टमी या तिथिर्भवेत्।
पुत्रसौभाग्यदा स्त्रीणां ख्याता सा जीवपुत्रिका॥
शालिवाहनराजस्य पुत्रो जीमूतवाहनः।
तस्यां पूज्यः स नारीभिः पुत्रसौभाग्यलिप्सया॥
इयमष्टमी प्रदोषव्यापिन्युपोष्या।
प्रदोषसमये स्त्रीभिः पूज्यो जीमूतवाहनः।
पुष्करिणीं विधायाथ प्राङ्गणे चतुरस्रिकाम्॥
इति भविष्यपुराणात्।
यद्युभयदिने प्रदोषव्याप्तिः तदाऽपरेऽहन्येव प्रधानकालानुरोधात्, नवम्यधिकरणकपारणानुरोधाच्च
पूर्वदिने व्रते तु वक्ष्यमाणवचनेन अष्टम्यां पारणे दोषश्रवणेन तदन्ते निशिपारणनिषेधेन च उपवासद्वयापत्तिः।
यदि पूर्वेयुः प्रदोषव्याप्तिर्न परेद्युरिति तदा पूर्वेयुरेव प्रदोषानुरोधबोधकपूर्वोक्तवचनात्।
पूर्वेद्युरपरेद्युर्वा प्रदोषे यत्र चाष्टमी।
तत्र पूज्यः सदा स्त्रीभी राजा जीमूतवाहनः॥
इति विष्णुधर्मोत्तरीयाच्च।
—कृत्यसारसमुच्चयः
