अनध्यायः

Observed on Kr̥ṣṇa-Caturdaśī tithi of every (lunar) month (Sāṅgavaḥ/paraviddha).

Anadhyayana on account of chaturdaśī. Several tithis in a month are nitya-anadhyayana days, including prathamā, aṣṭamī, chaturdaśī, amāvāsyā and pūrṇimā. Manu has said that performing adhyayana on these days destroys the Guru (Amavasya), Shishya (Chaturdashi) and the vīrya of the brahma (vēda) itself (Ashtami/Purnima). Similarly, Jabali Rishi has said that Adhyayana on prathama hurts the buddhi while adhyayana on chaturdaśī hurts the brahma (vēda) itself!

हारीतः—
प्रतिपत्सु चतुर्दश्यामष्टम्यां पर्वणोर्द्वयोः।
श्वोऽनध्यायेऽद्य शर्वर्यां नाधीयीत कदाचन॥
मनुः—
अमावास्या गुरुं हन्ति शिष्यं हन्ति चतुर्दशी।
ब्रह्माष्टकापौर्णमास्यस्तस्मात्ताः परिवर्जयेदिति॥
याज्ञवल्क्यः—
पञ्चदश्यां चतुर्दश्यां अष्टम्यां राहुसूतके।
जाबालिः—
नाधीयीत नरो नित्यमादावन्ते च पक्षयोः।
आदौ च हीयते बुद्धिरन्ते च ब्रह्म हीयते॥
पक्षादिः प्रतिपत्, पक्षान्तः चतुर्दशी॥

नॆडुंकोट-युद्धम् #२३५

Event occured on 1789-12-29 (gregorian).

On this day, in the first battle on the neDuMkoTa coast-to-mountain fortification, Tipu Sultan and troops were routed. Tipu was wounded (physically and mentally), and lost 1k troops. padmanAbhapura lost 300. Several of Tipu’s officers (including Europeans) were captured.

Two horses were shot from under Tipu, and he even got an arrow in the back. During the hasty retreat, Tipu fell back into the ditch twice before being helped out and the occasional lameness which he suffered until his death was reputedly the consequence. Tipu’s sword, the palanquin, the dagger, the ring and many other personal effects fell into the ditch, and then into the hands of the minister keshava-dAsa.

Aftermath

Humiliated Tipu vowed to take down “the contemptible wall”. The fine wall held up till 15th April. Then he managed a 1km wide breach after 1 month of sustained artillery fire and poured in - only to be foiled again at Alwaye river bank. He retreated by 24 May 1790 to defend his kingdom from British threat.

Context

The Dutch captive-turned general of padmanAbhapura’s mArtANDa varma, De Lannoy, had built an excellent fortification from coast to mountain - neDuMkoTa. It had a 16 feet wide and 20 deep ditch. dharmarAja rAma varma had tried to get British help when Tipu’s attack was imminent, but only got words. The Dutch, who’d sold forts to rAma varma helped a bit - by sending an engineer von Krause, who was dispatched to the wall. He wrote an account of the battle.

When Tipu attacked, he tried filling a small portion of the ditch with cotton sacks and moving in a small column via a narrow passage. At first the Mysoreans overpowered three batteries of the Lines but subsequently their flanks were subjected to fire from the woods. They were so surprised by the first round of fire that they fell into disorder. Then the well drilled nair army advanced and the confusion increased. Those Mysoreans who had not yet been trampled down by their horses while retreating found that the sacks with cotton, used for filling up the ditch when they set out, as well as some powder-barrels, had caught fire. This forced them to jump from the ramparts.

On this day (Margashirsha Chaturthi), vishvAs rAv, the teenage son of peshvA nAnAsAheb bAlAjI rAv, assisted ably by dattAjI shiNDe, defeated nizAm’s forces in the battle of Sindkhed and forced him to cede territory with a revenue of 25 lakhs, including the naldurg fort. “Negotiations continued for 2 weeks…. This was Vishwasrao’s first battle. He did well, may he gain more victories.” says a Maratha letter.

Events

Ibrahim Khan Gardi was still under Nizam’s employ. There was a big artillery attack by the marAThas, followed by an infantry square advance by Nizam’s side and cavalry attacks by Marathas. “They had taken about 300-500 men and 200 horses dead. Our losses were fewer. Their infantry retired from the field, we held our positions. An envoy from the Nizam arrived in our camp.” says a marATha letter.
