आऩाय नायऩ्मार् (१४) गुरुपूजै

Observed on Hastaḥ nakshatra of Vr̥ścikaḥ (sidereal solar) month (Prātaḥ/paraviddha).

Between the 6th and 9th centuries, in South India, there existed 63 ardent devotees of Lord Shiva, collectively known as the Nayanmars. These devout individuals, hailing from various walks of life including potters, fishermen, farmers, merchants, priests, hunters, and washermen, created devotional songs still sung by followers around the globe. Among these Nayanmars, Appar, Sambandar, and Sundarar, known for their Thevaram hymns, along with Manikkavasagar, are distinguished as the Samayacharyas or the ‘The Four’ (nālvar) revered teachers of the faith. They were instrumental in promoting the Shaiva Siddhanta philosophy and culture, effectively challenging the spread of Jainism and Buddhism. Their teachings centered around the concept that Shiva embodies love, and that embracing love for all beings and existence is essential in connecting with Shiva, the Supreme Being.

In Tirumangalam, a significant pilgrimage site in Mazhanadu (Tiruchirapalli District), resided the deity Samavedishvarar, known for purifying Parasurama of his sin and granting him an axe. Among the devotees in this divine place was a cowherd named Anayar, who earned his name due to his occupation. Anayar, the 14th Nayanmar, was deeply devoted to Lord Shiva, showing reverence to the sacred Bhasma (ash) and Shiva Bhaktas of all castes. His unique form of devotion involved playing the Panchakshara Mantra of Shiva on his flute.

One day, under a Konrai tree, beloved by Lord Shiva, Anayar played his flute, rendering the holy mantra. The melody was so enchanting that it mesmerized not only the cows and calves under his care but also the surrounding wildlife. Birds perched quietly to listen, peacocks danced rhythmically, and animals like deer, snakes, lions, elephants, and tigers, typically adversaries in nature, coexisted peacefully under the spell of the music. The environment itself seemed to pause, with rivers halting their flow and ocean waves calming, to savor the celestial music. Even heavenly beings like Vidyadharas, Kinnaras, and Devas were drawn to Anayar’s location in their celestial vehicles, captivated by his flute’s melody.

Lord Shiva, deeply moved by Anayar’s sincere devotion and the combined power of the enchanting music and the sacred Panchakshara Mantra, appeared before Anayar along with Mother Parvathi. Acknowledging Anayar’s devotion, Lord Shiva blessed him and escorted him to Kailas, the divine abode.

द्विपुष्कर-योगः

  • 04:32→06:17

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॥

ओम्ब्ल-तुकाराम-वीरगतिः #१६

Event occured on 2008-11-26 (gregorian).

tukArAm Omble died stopping jihAdi terrorist Ajmal Kasab in Mumbai on this day.

Background and events

Omble joined the police as a constable in 1991 after retiring from the Indian Army’s Signal Corps as a naik. He was an ASI with the Mumbai Police. On 26/11 he and his team were guarding one of the checkposts when they were approached by two terrorists in a hijacked car. After an initial shootout, one of the terrorists died inside the car, while the other, Ajmal Kasab got out of the car and lay down to pretend surrender. As unarmed Omble approached him, Kasab got up and tried to open fire. Omble stood in front of him and held on to the barrel of Kasab’s rifle, thus preventing the bullets from hitting anyone else but him. The rest of the team managed to overpower and apprehend Kasab. Omble had taken over 40 bullets from an Ak-47 at point blank range and did not survive.

स्मार्त-उत्पन्ना-एकादशी

The Krishna-paksha Ekadashi of kārttika month is known as utpannā-ēkādaśī.

पक्षे पक्षे च कर्तव्यमेकादश्यामुपोषणम्।
यदीच्छेद्विष्णुसायुज्यं श्रियं सन्ततिमात्मनः।
एकादश्यां न भुञ्जीत पक्षयोरुभयोरपि॥

अद्य स्थित्वा निराहारः श्वोभूते परमेश्वर।
भोक्ष्यामि पुण्डरीकाक्ष शरणं मे भवाच्युत॥
प्रमादादथवाऽऽलस्याद्धरे केशव माधव।
व्रतस्यास्य च वै विघ्नो न भवेत्त्वत्प्रसादतः॥
–पद्मपुराणे
