फ़तेह्-सिंह-निष्कासनम् #१०१

Event occured on 1921-07-28 (gregorian).

On this day, British formally deposed mahArANa Fateh Singh of Mewar under some silly pretext. This was the price of sticking to the long sisodiya tradition of refusing to be subservient to Abrahamist barbarians of all sorts.

Context: The great mahArANa, a descendent of rANa kumbha and pratApa-simha of the sisodiya line, was the only Maharaja to not attend the Delhi Durbar of the British royals, both of 1903 and 1911. The darbar-s were a pitiful spectacle - with one silver lining. Out of the more than 500 kings and princes who attended the event, only one chair remained vacant that day.

Then in 1921, when Edward, Prince of Wales, son of King George V and Queen Mary, visited Udaipur, he refused to receive him, citing illness and instead sent his son. This left him at odds with the British.

He gladdened the hearts of his countrymen by keeping his honor. Mahakavi Kesari Singh Barahath wrote to the Rana appealing him to not go to Delhi:

पग पग भम्या पहाड़, धरा छाँड़ राख्यो धरम।
महाराणा मेवाड़ हिरदे बसिया हिन्द रे॥
अब लग साराँ आस राण रीत कुल राखसी।
रहैं सहाय सुखरास एकलिंग प्रभु आप रै॥

“Rana, why does Pratap lives in India’s hearts? Because he protected dharma at the cost of his kingdom. That’s why. All the hopes are now resting on you. Pray keep the honour. May Ekalinga guide and help you.”

Consequence: The rANa’s steadfastness reinforced his house’s unique honor. Theirs was the first signature sardar patel received when absorbing the princely states; theirs was the elephant on which the first Indian president rode.

गुरुपुष्य-योगः

  • 07:02→

When Pushya nakshatra falls on a Thursday, it is a special yōgaḥ. When Rohini nakshatra falls on a Saturday, it is a special yōgaḥ. In the cyclic rotation of time, along with the bad combinations of grahas and nakshatras that indicate the probability of upcoming difficulties, good combinations that grant benefits in multiples also arise. Among such good combinations are the Amrita Siddhi yogas of certain weekdays and nakshatras. They are Sunday-Hasta, Monday-Mrigashirsha, Tuesday-Ashvini, Wednesday-Anuradha, Thursday-Pushya, Friday-Revati, Saturday-Rohini. Good deeds performed on such yogas become especially strong in protecting and nourishing us. For instance, in Devi Atharvashirsha, it is said bhaumāśvinyāṁ mahādevī-sannidhau japtvā mahāmr̥tyuṁ tarati, that is, one can cross even mahāmr̥tyu by doing parayanam when Tuesday and Ashvini join.

काञ्ची ३८ जगद्गुरु श्री-अभिनवशङ्करेन्द्र सरस्वती आराधना #११८३

Observed on Amāvāsyā tithi of Āṣāḍhaḥ (lunar) month (Aparāhṇaḥ/vyaapti). The event occurred in 3941 (Kali era).

This preceptor was the son of Viśvajit of Cidambaram through viśiṣṭā; like the Sun who dispels the dense darkness veiling his presence, He was born on the tenth day of the bright fortnight in the month of Vaiśākha in the year Vibhava twelve months after his father’s demise. One who was abandoned as a child in the midst of a forest by his mother herself without any possible solution to her deplorable plight, viz., widowhood, lack of shelter, servitude, insult of relatives fear of slander etc. Who, on crying at a distance was taken by the wife of Vyāghrapāda, to her home and was compassionately breastfed by her after informing her husband. The sage initiated him and imparted the ātmavidyā. Then, the adept in self control/ascetic principles, having completed studies, well-versed in scriptures, having received the grace bestowed by the Universal Preceptor (Śrī Śaṅkara) who manifested of his will before (him), and having received the mighty sacred sandals (of Śrī Śaṅkara) offered by Padmapāda appearing by the side of Śrī Śaṅkara, He (the Dhīraśaṅkara) stayed in Tilvaraṇya. The Universal Preceptor having adorned the seat of KāmaPīṭha, He wandered through the earth triumphant of having wiped off the arrogance of the adherents/scholars of rival schools in eight quarters (of the earth) and established the doctrine of Advaita. He Śaṅkarendra, having conquered easily the Kashmiri scholars Girodbhaṭṭa and others, ascended the SarvajñaPīṭha in Kashmir and though being followed by disciples to the Ātreya caves (in the Himalayas), disappeared alive in the embodied form itself. Thus, the preceptor sage spreading/showering the tenets of Advaya on this sacred earth for fifty-two years and with a desire to spread this noble path in the other world, He disappeared on the new moon day in the month of Āṣāḍha of the Uttarayaṇa in the year Siddhārthi of Kali era 3914. The sage Saccidvilāsa became the preceptor. This preceptor is turīyatīta-Śaṅkara. Some scholars mistake him to be Śrī Śaṅkara Bhagavadpāda and compile biography with inconsistencies.

पिण्ड-पितृ-यज्ञः

Pinda Pitru Yajnam is a śrāddham to be done to two sets of Pitru Devatas. It is to be done in one’s Agnihotra Agni or if that is not present then Aupasana Agni. Rice is cooked in a section of the Agni moved to the south-east. From this, even those whose father is living, give āhuti to the Deva Pitru-s ie sōma, yama and agni kavyavāhana. Those whose father is not living should additionally give piṇḍas to the Manushya Pitru-s also to whom amāvāsyā-śrāddham is also performed.

सर्व-आषाढ (कर्कट) अमावास्या (अलभ्यम्–पुष्यः, पुष्कला)

amāvāsyā of āṣāḍha month, which also falls in the sidereal solar month of kaṭaka.

Details

It is said in Vishnupuranam that when Amavasya overlaps with one of nine nakshatras—Anuradha, Vishakha, Swati, Pushya, Ardra, Punarvasu, Shravishtha, Purvaproshthapada, or Shatabhishak—it is sacred even for Devas. For instance, Shraaddha done on an Amavasya joined with Anuradha, Vishakha, Swati keeps the pitrs satisfied for eight years. Likewise, on Pushya, Ardra and Punarvasu, the pitrs satisfied for twelve years.

अमावास्या यदा मैत्रविशाखास्वातियोगिनी।
श्राद्धे पितृगणस्तृप्तिमवाप्नोत्यष्टवार्षिकीम्॥
अमावास्या यदा पुष्ये रौद्रेऽथः पुनर्वसौ।
द्वादशाब्दं तदा तृप्तिं प्रयान्ति पितरोऽर्चिताः॥

वारुणे चाप्यमावास्या देवानामपि दुर्लभा।
नवस्वृक्षेष्वमावास्या यदैतेष्ववनीपते॥

Details

It is said in the Smrtis, that if Amavaysa falls on a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday, such a tithi is given the appellation puṣkalā and is as sacred as a solar eclipse.

अमा सोमेन भौमेन गुरुणा वा युता यदि।
सा तिथिः पुष्कला नाम सूर्यग्रहणसन्निभा॥
