JANJGIR VISHNU MANDIR ... BUILT BY BHEEMA...

"Vishnu Mandir" were built by Kings of Hayhay Vansh, near Bhima Talab of purani basti of Janjgir in 12 Century. It was being constructed in two parts to make a full temple, but both the parts could not be assembled in time and as a result, both the parts of the temple are lying on the ground separately and the temple remains uncompleted. Due to this, the temple is also called as "Nakata-Mandir" by local people. On the walls of the temple are the statues of Gods and Goddess. Gandharava and Kinners are making it worth watching for the tourists in particular

VADNAGAR ~ MODI'S HOME TOWN WAS ANCIENT BUDDHIST SITE ...

Vadnagar in Gujarat, was a major centre of Buddhism in Western India when the famous Chinese traveller, Huen Tsang or more correctly, Xuanzang (602-664 AD), visited it.
 
 The town figures in the accounts of the 7 Century Chinese traveller, Xuanzang, who called it 'Anandapur'.

It was in 2009, that excavations by the Gujarat Department of Archeology revealed the existence of a Buddhist monastery, although a statue of the Buddha in the sitting posture, dating back to the second or third century AD, had been accidentally discovered in a farmland near Vadnagar in the late 1980s.

According to India Today, 24 seals had been discovered at the monastery site till 2012, exciting the curiosity of renowned archeologists like Robin Cunningham of the University of Durham, and Mark Kanyor of Wisconsin University.
 
'Stupas at the site reveal three different stages of an evolving Buddhist architecture, from cylindrical and circular shapes to square and moulded plinths,' the magazine said in 2012. Two more monasteries had since been discovered.

"The new revelations in Vadnagar prove that Gujarat was an important Buddhist centre. Both the stupas and the monasteries correspond to three periods of Buddhist development, spread from the first to the seventh century AD," the magazine quoted Y.S.Rawat, Head of the Gujarat Government Department of Archeology, as saying.

Apart from Vadnagar, Xuanzang, the Chinese traveller, had visited other Buddhist sites in Gujarat, such as Bharuch, Vallabhipur (near Bhavnagar) and Kutch. But earlier archeologists like Alexander Cunningham (the first Director General of the Archeological Survey of India), had not excavated in these places.

KIRTI TORAN .... The torans left behind by the Solanki dynasty @ Vadnagar in Gujarat, was a major centre of Hindu worship.

The Kirti ‘Toran’, called the ‘Kirti Stambha’ (Temple Arch) in other regions, is a religious form that flourished under the Solanki rule in Gujarat. Two of the finest examples are at Vadnagar. At one time, both must have been connected with a temple, not a trace of which now remains , interestingly, dismantled parts of a similar but much bigger arch lie in the vicinity. These two arches may have been part of a big temple complex.

The Toran of Vadnagar in Gujarat Of the two, the one that stood at what was the edifice of Rewah, is a truly imposing structure. Almost complete and a typical example of its kind, it rises to a total height of 40 feet. It consists of two massive and elaborate columns, supporting a wide cornice, above which rises a vaulted pediment.Built by a Solanki ruler, the toran in red and yellow sandstone has carvings of battle and hunting scenes.

Many images of gods and goddesses on the arch now stand disfigured. They were, according to historians, vandalised by the armies of Allauddin Khilji, the first Muslim invader to raid north Gujarat during the Sultanate period.KIRTI TORAN ....

The Tarikh-i-Firishta records that Sultãn Sikandar Butshikan of Kashmir (AD 1389-1413) hatefully known as 'Sikander But-shikan' (the iconoclast), father of Zain-ul-Abidin. Assisted by Suha Bhatt, his Prime Minister, a neo-convert to Islam, assuming the name of Saifud-Din, the king in mad frenzy of skewed religious fanaticism and bigotry surpassed even the greatest tyrants of History. 

Putting hundreds and thousands of his Hindu subjects, mostly Brahmins, to sword, desecrating, plundering and destroying all the famous temples and libraries, focibly converting some to Islam, inflicting all possible cruelities upon them, the king stopped short at nothing. His equally ruthless soldiers tired of wielding their swords dragged their hapless victims to the Dal Lake and drowned them in it at a place which is still known by the name of 'Bhatta Mazar' meaning the graveyard of the Hindus. Those who yielded, got converted; those who could, escaped to the subcontinent; but those who resisted, perished.

सरदार जी बारह बज गए

सरदार जी बारह बज गए. . . . . . . . .
मित्रों ! कुछ नादान लोग सिक्ख भाइयों को अपनी ओर से शायद व्यंग्य करते हुए कहते हैं कि सरदार जी बारह बज गए। वे शायद नहीं जानते कि बारह बजे क्या होता था ? शायद मेरे सभी सिक्ख भाई भी पूरी जानकारी नहीं रखते हैं | उन सभी लोगों के लिए वास्तविक जानकारी प्रस्तुत है जो इसका मतलब नहीं जानते हैं ।
इतिहास गवाह है कि सिक्खों ने असहाय और कमजोरों की मदद के लिए कभी भी अपनी जान की परवाह नहीं की ।
सन 1737 से 1767 के बीच भारत पर नादिरशाह और अहमदशाह अब्दाली जैसे लूटेरों के अनेकों हमले हुए । मारकाट के बाद वे लोग सोना-चांदी और कीमती सामान के साथ साथ सुन्दर लड़कियों और स्त्रियों को भी लूटकर साथ ले जाते और ग़जनी के बाज़ारों में टके टके में बेचकर उनकी इज्जत नीलाम करते थे । भारत भर में इन हिन्दू बहन - बेटियों की चीखो पुकार को सुनने वाला कोई न था | खुद परिवार के लोग भी अपनी जान बचाते भागते फिरते थे | लूटपाट के माल और स्त्रियों के साथ इन लूटेरों को पंजाब से होकर गुजरना पड़ता था | यहाँ पर सिक्खों ने उन लूटेरों से स्त्रियों को बचाने की ठानी और संख्या में कम होने के कारण छोटे छोटे दल बना कर अर्द्ध रात्रि के बारह बजे हमले की व्यूह रचना बनाई | अपने दल को हमले हेतु तैयार व चौकन्ना करने, अपनी मुहिम को पूरी कामयाबी से अंजाम देने के लिए सिक्खों ने एक सांकेतिक वाक्य बनाया था
"बारह बज गए" इस तरह अर्द्ध रात्रि को नींद में गाफिल असावधान लूटेरों के कब्जे से अधिक से अधिक स्त्रियों को छुड़ाकर वे ससम्मान उनके घर पहुँचा देते थे ।
दुर्भाग्यवश इस वाक्य के सही महत्त्व का ज्ञान लोगों को नहीं है कि किस तरह से सिक्खों ने हिन्दू बहन, बहू-बेटियों की इज्ज़त बचाई, जब दुर्बलता व लाचारी घर कर गई थी |
यह वाक्य उस समय मुस्लिम लुटेरों के लिए भय का पर्याय और हिन्दुओं के लिए वरदान के समान आश्वासन का प्रतीक बन गया था कि अब सिक्ख उनकी बहन - बेटियों को बचा लेंगे |
सिक्खों के लिए यह वाक्य आज भी वीरता एवं गर्व का प्रतीक है। यदि कोई व्यक्ति इस वाक्य का प्रयोग करता है तो इसके दो ही अर्थ हो सकते हैं :- कि या तो वह इतिहास समझकर वीर सिक्खों का आभार व्यक्त कर रहा है या उसकी बहन- बेटी को आज फिर खतरा है जिसके लिए वह सिक्ख से मदद चाहता है |
मित्रों ! सिक्खों की बहादुरी की ऐसी अनेकों दास्तानें फ़्रांस के स्कूली बच्चों को पढ़ाई जाती हैं | आप चाहें तो यूनेस्को (UNESCO) द्वारा छापी गई किताब "STORIES OF BRAVERY" में छपे यह सभी तथ्य पढ़कर तसल्ली कर सकते हैं |
"सिक्ख हिन्दूओं की एक श्रेष्ठ जाति है कृपया इन लोगों का आदर व सम्मान करें |"
यदि आप इससे अभी तक अनभिज्ञ थे तो कृपया ये जानकारी अपने मित्रों को भी शेयर करें |

UFO CAPTURED BY NASA NEAR INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.



There has been another reported sighting of a UFO outside the international space station.
In a video posted to YouTube, a glowing orb was spotted hovering as the space station makes its orbit around the Earth.
Credit UFO Sightings Daily with reporting Sept. 21 of the existence of the latest YouTube video of an unidentified flying object caught by a live NASA space station camera. The video, which was posted by user Streetcap1, displays a glowing orb keeping pace with the International Space Station, which is in decaying orbit about 261 miles (420 kilometers) above the Earth.
In the posting by Scott Waring, he explains that not only does the glowing orb "moving upward" in the video, it is also seen "fluctuating." Waring notes that the UFO is a "fantastic example" of the white ball type. "Most UFOs recorded around the world (about 20%) are white glowing balls," he attests.
It could be space junk also  illuminated by SUN.
