parichay

hriday mean bhagavadh-prem ka aankuran

rrishi-muniyoan ki seva mean rahakar poorvajanh‍m mean jaise de‍varshi naradaji bhagavan ke param premi ban gaye the, vaise hi bhaktavar namadev ji ke ghar mean hone vali sath‍sangati tatha bhagavachh‍charcha ke prabhav se janabaee ke saral hriday mean bhi bhagavath‍prem ka bij aan‍kurit ho gaya. namadev ne use apani shishya svikar kiya. usaki bhagavanh‍nam mean priti ho gayi; jisamean jisaki priti hoti hai, use vah bhool nahian sakata. isi tarah janabaee bhi bhagavanh‍nam ko niranh‍tar sh‍maran karane lagi. jh‍yoan-jh‍yoan namash‍maran badha, th‍yoan-hi-th‍yoan usake papapuanj jalane lage aur prem ka aankur palh‍lavit hokar dridh vriksh ke roop mean parinat hone laga tatha usaki j d sab or phailane lagi.

namadev ke ghar jagaran

ekadashi ka din hai, namadev ji ke ghar bhakh‍toan ki manh‍dali ekatr huee hai, rat ke samay jagaran ho raha hai. namakirtan aur bhajan mean sabhi mash‍t ho rahe haian. koee kirtan karata hai, koee mridang bajata hai, koee karatal aur koee jhaanjh bajata hai. premi bhakt prem mean tanh‍may haian, kisi ko tan-man ki sudhi nahian hai- koee nachata hai, koee gata hai, koee aansoo baha raha hai, koee mash‍t hansi hans raha hai. kitani rat gayi, is bat ka kisi ko khayal nahian hai. janabaee bhi ek kone mean kh di prem mean matt hokar jhoom rahi hai. is ananh‍damh‍budhi mean doobe rat bahut hi jalh‍di bit gayi. ushakal ho gaya. log apane-apane ghar gaye.

mahattvapoorn ghatana

janabaee apane ghar ayi. ghar ane par janabaee jara let gayi. prem ki madakata abhi poori nahian utari thi, vah usi mean mugh‍dh huee p di rahi. sooryadev uday ho gaye. janabaee uthi aur sooryoday hua dekhakar bahut ghabarayi. usane socha, mujhe b di der ho gayi. malik ke ghar jha doo-baratan ki b di kathinaee huee hogi, vah hath-muanh dhokar turant kam par chali gayi.

poora vilamh‍b ho chuka tha, jana ghabaraee huee jalh‍di-jalh‍di hath ka kam samaph‍t karane mean lag gayi. parantu h dab dahat mean kam poora nahian ho pata. doosare, ek kam mean vilamh‍b ho jane se silasila bigad jane se silasila big d jane ke karan sabhi mean vilamh‍b hota hai; yahaan bhi yahi hua. jha doo dena hai, pani bharana hai, kap de dhone haian, baratan maanjane haian; aur n maloom kitane kam haian.

janabaee kuchh kam nipatakar jalh‍di-jalh‍di kap de lekar unh‍hean dhone ke liye chanh‍drabhaga nadi ke kinare pahuanchi. kap de dhone mean hath laga hi tha ki ek bahut jaroori kam yad a gaya, jo isi samay n hone se namadev ji ko b da kashh‍t hota; avev vah nadi se turant malik ke ghar ki or chali. rash‍te mean akash‍mat ek aparichita vriddha sh‍tri ne ne prem se palh‍la pak dakar jana se kaha- "baee jana ! yoan ghabaraee huee kh‍yoan dau d rahi ho? aisa kh‍ya kam hai." jana ne apana kam use batala diya. vriddha ne sh‍nehapoorn vachanoan se kaha- "ghabarao nahian ! tum ghar se kam kar ao, tab tak maian tumh‍hare kap de dhoye deti hooan!" janabaee ne kaha- "nahian maan ! tum mere liye kashh‍t n uthao, maian abhi laut ati hooan." vriddha ne musakarate hue uttar diya- "mujhe isamean koee kashh‍t nahian hoga, mere liye koee bhi kam karana bahut asan hai; maian sada sabhi tarah ke kam karati hooan, isase mujhe abhh‍yas hai ! is par bhi tumh‍hara man n mane to kabhi mere kam mean tum bhi sahayata kar dena. janabaee ko ghar pahuanchane ki jalh‍di thi, idhar vriddha ke vachanoan mean sh‍neh tapak raha tha; vah kuchh bhi n bol saki aur man-hi-man vriddha ki paropakar-vritti ki sarahana karati huee chali gayi. use kh‍ya pata tha ki yah vriddha mamooli sh‍tri nahian, sachchidananh‍damayi jagajh‍janani hai !

vriddha ne bat-ki-bat mean kap de dhokar saph kar diye. kap doan ke sath hi un kap doan ko pahanane aur lane valoan ka karmamal bhi dhul gaya ! tho di der mean janabaee lauti. dhule hue kap de dekhakar usaka hriday kritajnata se bhar gaya. usane vriddha se kaha- "mata ! aj tumh‍hean b da kashh‍t hua, tum-sarikhi paropakarini mataean eeshvararoop hi hoti haian." jana ! too bhoolati hai. yah vriddha eeshh‍varasvaroopini nahian haian, sakshat eeshh‍var hi hai. tere premavash bhagavan ne vriddha ka svaang saja hai !

vriddha ne musakate hue kaha- "janabaee ! mujhe to koee kashh‍t nahian hua, kam hi kaun-sa tha ! lo apane kap de, maian jati hooan." itana kahakar vriddha vahaan se chal di. jana ka hriday vriddha ke sh‍neh se bhar gaya tha; use pata hi nahian laga ki vriddha chali ja rahi hai. jana kap de batorane lagi; itane mean hi usake man mean aya ki ‘vriddha ne itana upakar kiya hai; usaka nam-pata to poochh looan, jisase kabhi usaka darshan aur seva-sath‍kar kiya ja sake.' vriddha kuchh hi kshan pahale gayi thi. jana ne charoan or dekha, rash‍te ki or dau di, sab taraph dhooandh hari; vriddha ka kahian pata nahian laga, lagata bhi kaise.

jana nirash hokar nadi-kinare laut ayi aur vahaan se kap de lekar namadev ke ghar pahuanchi. sant jana ka man vriddha ke liye vh‍yakul tha; vriddha ne jate-jate n maloom kh‍ya jadoo kar diya, jana kuchh samajh hi nahian saki. bat bhi yahi hai. yah jadoogarani thi bhi bahut nipun.

pun: grih agaman

sath‍sang ka samay tha, santamanh‍dali ekatr ho rahi thi; jana ne vahaan pahuanchakar apana hal namadev ji ko sunana aramh‍bh kiya, kahate-kahate jana gadgadakanh‍th ho gayi. bhagavadbhakh‍t namadev ji sari ghatana sunakar turant lilamay ki lila samajh gaye aur man-hi-man bhagavan ki bhaktavath‍salata ki prashansa karate hue prem mean magh‍n ho gaye. phir bole- "jana ! too b dabhagini hai ! bhagavan ne tujh par b da anugrah kiya. vah koee mamooli budhiya nahian thi; ve to sakshat narayan the, jo tere premavash bina bulaye hi tere kam mean hath bantane aye the." yah sunate hi janabaee prem se rone lagi aur bhagavan ko kashh‍t dene ke karan apane ko kosane lagi. sara sant-samaj ananh‍d se pulakit ho gaya.

bhagavan ke prati prem

kaha jata hai ki isake bad bhagavan ke prati janabaee ka prem bahut hi badh gaya tha aur bhagavan samay-samay par use darshan dekar kritarth kiya karate the. janabaee chakh‍ki pisate samay bhagavath‍prem ke ‘abhang’ gaya karati thi; gate-gate jab vah premavesh mean sudh-budh bhool jati, tab usake badale mean bhagavan sh‍vayan pisate aur bhaktimati jana ke abhangoan ko sun-sunakar prasanh‍n hua karate the. maharashh‍tr kaviyoan ne ‘jana sange dalile’ yani ‘jana ke sath chakh‍ki pisate the’ is prakar gaya hai. maharashh‍tr-pranh‍t mean janabaee ka sh‍than bahut hi ooancha hai.
