Vedic period and kings

Vedic people were not primitive. They were more civilized than any other race of that period. The rules and regulations stipulated for the king and the duties and prerogatives assigned to the king show that they are highly organised and very much advanced in civilization. It is amazing to see all the important Departments or Ministries were in place during the Vedic time. Ministries: Grhapati, Vanaspati, Pasupati, Dharmapati, Brhaspati Ministers : Savita, Agni, Soma, Brahaspati, Indra, Rudra, Mitra, Varuna Coronation and Consecration The rites and rituals connected with the Coronation and Consecration ceremony are described in the Satapata Brahmana (5-3, 5-4). On the first day of the five day ceremony, offerings are made to eight deities- Savita, Agni, Soma, Brahaspati, Indra, Rudra, Mitra, Varuna These eight Gods are called ‘Devasus’ or Divine Quickeners’ and each has an epithet of his own. While offering the oblations, each is invoked along with his epithet which bespeaks one or other aspect of royal prerogatives, duties and functions. Thus Savita is invoked as Satyaprasava for true impulse or righteous energy of the king. ( I will compare it to the modern Ministry of External Affairs and Prime Minister’s Office) Agni as Grhapati for mastery of the household( Ministry of Human Resources) Soma as Vanaspati for the protection of forests and agriculture (Ministry of Agriculture and Forests) Brhaspati Vak for power of speech ( Ministry of Information and Broadcasting) Indra as Jyeshta for supremacy or predominance in matters of administration (Ministry of Home Affairs) Rudra as Pasupati for protection of cattle,(Ministry of Animal Husbandry) Mitra as Satya for truth,(Ministry of Moral Education) And lastly offering to Varuna and moral governor as Dharmapati for upholding Dharma or Law. The last epithet viz, that of Varuna makes the king upholder of law or one who enforces law and order. (Ministry of Law and Order) Thus each epithet is applied with an eye to each prerogative or duty of the king-designate. Eight Ministers for Tamil Kings Tamil kings who ruled in the southern part of India two thousand years ago also had Eight Advisers. The council was called ‘EnPerayam.’ It consisted of Chief of Accounts Chief of Executive officials Chief of Treasury officials Chief of Palace guards Leading citizens representatives Chief of Infantry Chief of Elephantry Chief of the Cavalry Shivaji’s Eight Ministers Ashta Pradhan of Veera Shivaji Shivaji who was coronated in 1674 had Eight Ministers to run the country. The council was called Ashta Pradhan. Peshwa: Prime Minister Amatya: Minister in charge of Financial matters Sacheev: Chief of Administration Mantri: Home Minister Sumant: Foreign Minister Senapati: Commander in Chief, Defence Minister Nyayadish: Law Minister/ Chief Justice Panditrao: Minister in charge of Religious Affairs Council of Eight Poets: Ashta Diggajas Ancient King Vikramaditya had a Council of Nine Scholars known as Navaratnas (Nine Gems). Vijayanagara kings had a group of Eight Poets/scholars knows as Ashta Diggajas ( Eight Elephants in 8 cardinal points). They were very popular because of their poetical works. The eight poets were Allasani Peddana, Nandi Thimmana, Madayagari Mallana, Pingali Surana,Tenali Ramakrishna, Dhurjati Ayyalaraju, Ramaraja Bhushandu, Rama Bhadrudu. Of the eight poets, Tenali Ramakrishna was the most famous person. He was a great poet and a jester. His anecdotes are known to every child of South India. Vijayanagara Emperor Krishna Devaraya who ruled between 1509 and 1529 AD had these eight poets. He himself was a great poet. Looking at these councils, one may conclude that the ancient practice of having EIGHT COUNCILLORS was followed till recent times. Democratic Election:- First King Soma The first king elected democratically on earth was a Vedic king named SOMA. As to the origin of kingship or institution of monarchy the Aitareya Brahmana recounts the following anecdote. Once Gods were defeated by the Asuras (demons) in every direction. At that time there was no king among Gods. Brooding over the cause of their signal defeat at the hands of the Asuras, thus said the Gods—Because we are without a king they have been able to defeat us;we shall ELECT a king.’ All consented unanimously. They ELECTED god Soma as their king and conquered all the directions guided by King Soma. This passage proves the emergence of kingship by ELECTION at the time of emergency or national calamity. Naturally the first king had to be elected whether in heaven or earth. Later hereditary kingship was followed

Jammu and Kashmir's Hindu past

Harwan is a small village located 3 km beyond the Shalimar Garden in Srinagar District of Jammu and Kashmir. The village was identified by Sir Aurel Stein with Shadara Hadvana (grove of six saints) a locality mentioned in Rishi Kalhana’s Rajatarangini. It is a historic place that was sacked and destroyed by Sikandar Butshikan during the 14th century AD, and many remains of Kashmir’s Hindu as well as Buddhist past have been found during the excavations. The relics of this unique work of art and history, the Harwan Buddhist temple is aeons old, and its origin goes as far as 300 AD. Its ruins are located in Harwan, a village situated in the north-western Kashmir. These ruins are situated towards the northwest of Kashmir and are accessible from the eastern side of Shalimar Mughal Garden. The temple dates back to the Kushan era and civilisation. It was discovered during an excavation as part of an archaeological expedition conducted by the Archaeological Department of India approximately between 1919 and 1929 AD. The architecture of this ancient structure depicts the lifestyle, attire and habitat of Kashmir’s Hindus of that era. There are beautiful image carvings on the tiles within the temple. Image : A female musician wearing trousers; she plays on a drum, which is apparently slung over her left shoulder. Floral motifs on either side. A dancer wearing large ear-rings and dressed in loose robe and trousers, with a long scarf held in both hands, which she waves over her head. One can notice the similarity of classical Indian dance depicted in the dancer’s body posture.

देश फिर बनेगा सोने की चिडि़या

झारखंड (8 जुलाई 2015):झारखंड की राजधानी के नज़दीक तमाड़ में जियोलॉजिकल सर्वे ऑफ इंडिया को ऐसी खदाने मिली हैं जहां से निकल रहा है सोना। जीएसआई के वैज्ञानिकों का कहना है कि धरती फाड़कर निकल रहे इस सोने का अंबार करीब एक लाख टन का है।

ज़मीन फाड़कर निकल रहे सोने के इस अंबार ने 19वीं सदी के कैलिफोर्निया की घटना को याद दिला दिया है जिसने पूरी दुनिया के कारोबारियों और व्यापारियों को वहां का रुख करने के लिए मजबूर कर दिया था। साल 1848 में यहां खुदाई के दौरान बड़े पैमाने पर सोना मिला था। ये घटना इतिहास के पन्नों में 'कैलिफोर्नियन गोल्ड रश' के नाम से दर्ज है। अब एक बार फिर इतिहास खुद को झारखंड के परासी में दोहरा रहा है। हालांकि यहां मिलने वाले सोने की क्वानटिटी और क्वालिटी का अब तक अनुमान नहीं लगाया जा सका है लेकिन जियोलॉजिस्ट का मानना है कि अब तक टेस्ट के जो नतीजे सामने आए हैं, उसके मुताबिक यहां मिलने वाला सोना बेहतरीन क्वालिटी का का है

खबरों के मुताबिक जियोलॉजिकल सर्वे तमाड़ के दूसरे इलाकों में भी सोने की तलाश का काम तेज कर दिया है। जियोलॉजिकल सर्वे ऑफ इंडिया के वैज्ञानिकों के मुताबिक इस इलाके में 300 मिलियन टन कच्चा सोना है। जानकारों के मुताबिक औसतन एक टन कच्चे सोने में 3.50 ग्राम सोना निकलता है। इस हिसाब से झारखंड के अंदर मिल रहे सोने की कीमत 25 हज़ार करोड़ बताई जा रही है। सूबे में सोना खोज रहे जीएसआई से झारखंड सरकार के भूतत्व निदेशालय ने 2014 में रिपोर्ट मांगी थी। इस रिपोर्ट में तमाड़ के अंदर सोने का अकूत खज़ाना होने का खुलासा हुआ है।
जीएसआई के मुताबिक मानसून के बाद अगस्त से अक्टूबर के बीच परासी ब्लॉक तैयार करके ड्रिलिंग का काम किया जाएगा। जानकारी के मुताबिक इस काम में करीब एक साल का वक़्त लगेगा। इसके बाद इलाके की नीलामी की घोषणा की जाएगी। परासी में जिस अकूत सोने का पता चला है वो तमाम राष्ट्रीय मानकों पर खरा उतर रहा है, लिहाज़ इसकी अहमियत और बढ़ जाती है। शुरुआती रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक तमाड़ के सिंदुरी, लुंगटु, हेपसेल और परासी में ज़मीन के नीचे सोने का अकूत भंडार होने का दावा किया गया है। हालांकि अंतिम रिपोर्ट सरकार को अब तक नहीं मिली है। इस रिपोर्ट के मिलते ही वहां खुदाई का काम शुरू कर दिया जाएगा जिसमें लुंगटू-हेपसेल-परासी ब्लॉक बनाया जाएगा।
जियोलॉजिकल सर्वे ऑफ इंडिया के उप-महानिदेशक के मुताबिक, इस इलाके में पिछले 15 सालों से काम कर रहा है और परसा गांव के पास मिले सोने की रिपोर्ट भी वो सरकार को भेज चुके हैं। ऐसा नहीं है कि यहां पहली बार धरती फाड़कर सोना निकल रहा हो। इस इलाके में पहली बार 2006 में ड्रिलिंग की गई थी, तब भी तमाड़ में ज़मीन के नीचे सोने का खज़ाना होने की बात कही गई थी। पहले राउंड में यहां 12 जगहों पर ड्रिलिंग की गई थी।

The Forgotten Battle of Bahraich, 1033 CE-Raja Suheldev:

Image of Suheldev statue

The Indian history of the last millennium is the history of the heroic resistance to foreign invasions & rule. From 8th century CE, India came under the sustained assault by the forces of Islamic imperialism beginning with the Arab invasion of the Sindh. But the Islamic expansion was halted by the Rajput confederacy in the Battle of Rajasthan in early 8th century CE. Decisive defeat of Arabs in the battle of Rajasthan and by Emperor Lalitāditya Muktapīḍa (724 CE–760 CE) of Kashmir put an end to the Arab dream of conquest of India.

But second invasion started three centuries later with conversion of TURK to Islam. Mahmoud Ghaznavi  started attacking in in the Afghanistan and northwest India and sacked  Somnath temple in 1026 CE. After the death of Mahmud Ghaznavi, Masud, a nephew of Ghazanvi  invaded India in May 1031 CE .His first military conflict was with Raja Mahipal Tomar of Delhi,who he defeated and then marched into the upper Doab towards Meerut whose ruler Raja Hari Dutt surrendered and accepted Islam. Masud marched unto the Kannauj via Bulandshahr& Badaun. Kannnauj, once a sate of old Great  Gurjar-Pratihar. The local ruler along with his son accepted Islam and surrendered vast amount of wealth to the Masud along with allowing Kannauj to be used as a military base for the further Islamic conquest in the Awadh and Purvanchal.

At that time   Pasi kings ruled the Awadh and the surrounding regions. Pasi is a schedule caste with the population of 80-90 lakhs, which is found in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Haryana, Punjab and Orissa with its highest concentration in the Uttar Pradesh, where it forms the second largest Dalit community. They are among the original inhabitants of the Awadh region and have been an important player in the history of the region. Narrative relating to the origin of Pasis claim descent from the sage Bhrigu (a Saptarshi & preceptor of Dhanurveda, an upveda of science of war) or from Parashuram of the clan of Bhrigu. It is narrated that Parashuram created five sword wielding warriors from five blades of grass and Pasi is derived for the word ‘asi’ meaning sword i.e. who hold sword.

Several Pasi kings ruled the region, most notable among them are Maharaja Bijlee Pasi, founder of Bijnor and contemporary of Prithvi Raj Chauhan, Maharaja Satan Pasi of Ramkot, Maharaja Lakhan Pasi, credited with the founding of Lucknow, Maharaja Daldeo etc remains of whose forts still dot the landscape. They were replaced by Rajputs as the rulers in several areas but it was the Islamic invasions that perpetrated their downfall and they suffered heavy persecution under the Muslim rule. By 18^th century CE, more fortunate among Pasis were reduced to being militiamen of local Jagirdars. They were then slammed under the Criminal Tribes Act under the colonial British India due to their rebellious streak and massive participation in the war of independence, 1857 and several agrarian unrests.

Pasi Kings often had a confrontational relation with the Rajput rulers of Kannauj but with the beginning of the Islamic invasions the entire dynamics changed. During this period Kingdom of Shravasti was ruled by the Raja Suheldev who is also known by various names like Sakardev, Suhirdadhwaj, Sukhdev etc. He was the son of Mangal Dhwaj and disciple of Balak Rishi whose Ashram was located in Bahraich During the invasion by Salar Masud, regions of Lakhimpur, Sitapur, Lucknow, Barabanki, Unnao, Faizabad, Bahraich, Sravasti, Gonda etc were ruled by a confederacy of 21 Pasi chieftains under Raja Suhelde

After a triumphant march though Meerut, Kannuaj & Malihabad, Masud arrived in Satrikh, a town in the Barabanki district. Starikh was an important Hindu place for pilgrimage where Guru Vashisht had taught the young Ram and Lakshman. Using Satrikh as his base, Masud sent his armies to conquer the neighboring areas. Miyya Rajab and Salar Saifuddin took Bahraich. Amir Hasan Arab took Mahona, Malik Fazal took Varanasi. Sayad Sahu took Karra and Manikpur. Syad Aziz-ud-din was sent against Hardoi, but fell in the battle at Gopamau. While at Satrikh, Masud got the distress call from Dost Mohammed at the fort of Dhundgarh near Rewari. Masud was forced to send his religious teacher, Saiyad Ibrahim Mashhadi Barah Hazari to relieve the siege. As per Ain-e-Masudi, Saiyad Ibrahim was an utterly fanatic commander and on whichever route he traversed, no non-Muslim could escape his sword unless he converted to Islam. But he was slain at the battle of the Dhundgarh along with several other commanders. His tomb is located at Kot Qasim, 20 km away from Tijara, a town in Alwar district near Rewari.

Right wing of the Islamic army collapsed with the death of its commander Mir Nasrullah. The tomb of Mir Nasrullah is located at the village of Dikoli Khurd, 12 Km north of Bahraich. Soon Salar Miyya Rajab was slain. He was a close relative of Salar Masud and was known for his temperament and adamant nature. His tomb is located at Shahpur Jot Yusuf village, 3 km east of Bahraich and he is known as ‘Hathila Pir’. Following the ensuing chaos in the Muslim army, a large contingent of the Suheldev’s army under Raja Karan, penetrated the center of the Muslim army and thus giving it a bodily blow. Salar Masud was either beheaded by the Raja Suheldev or died due to an arrow piercing his throat. He died under a Mahua tree near the sacred Suryakund. It is claimed that after his death, a loyalist Salar Ibrahim organised a counter attack and killed Raja Suheldev in the next day of battle. However, it also seems that Suheldev survived the battle and constructed several water tanks in and around the Shravasti to commemorate his victory. The Chandradeo of Kannauj later subverted him as the defeat of the Muslim army re-ignited the old rivalries.

What is notable about this battle is the vast Muslim army was defeated not by any powerful Indian empire but by a small confederacy of Kings of Bahraich which inflicted a crushing defeat on the invaders. The entire invading army was simply annihilated as no quarters were given. It become even more significant when we consider the fact that it was the same Muslim army which was used by Mahmud of Ghazni during his depredations in the North India and which, by historians, is considered to be too ‘advance’ for the contemporary Indian armies. It is a pity that not much work has been on this historical event, which halted the victorious march of the Islamic imperialism for decades soon after the raids of Mahmud of Ghazni.

Instead what has happened is that the place has become the place of pilgrimage during the Urs of ‘Bale Miyan’ or ‘Ghazi Miyan’ towards the end of May in Jyeshtha month. It is the process of acculturation which has Islamised the Hindu folk tradition. The place has retained its reputation as the place of healing for the suffering from leprosy and other skin diseases and also as a fertility shrine. They are no doubt continuing with the sacred tradition of Sun worship, which pre-existed the cult of this Muslim ‘Sun of Martyrdom’ (Aftab-i Shahadat), who was buried under a Mahua tree beside a sun-temple so much so that his head is still supposed to rest on the image of the sun.The Suryakund has been renamed as Hoz Shamshi, Persian for SuryaKund. The story of Salar Masud has been re-casted as a tragic youth who was cursed to die as an unmarried or that of a liberator who fought again the oppression of the ‘evil’ King Suheldev. Even today when a strong wind blows, the gates of the Dargah are closed and an iron chain, said to be of magical powers, is tied at its front so that the “evil spirit” of Suheldev can’t entre the tomb to torment the Ghazi Miyan and his followers.

A local Raja of Prayagpur donated 500 bighas of land and Chittora Lake to the ‘Suheldev Smarak Samiti’ where a statue of Raja Suheldev was installed. Later on, a temple was constructed to honour the great hero and the celebration of Vijayotsav was started in the form of havan and public procession.
