devataoan dvara bhagavan shiv ke rath ka nirman karana

mahadev ji ne kaha- ‘devataoan! maian dhanush-ban dharan karake rath par baithakar yuddh sthal mean tumhare un shatruoan ka vadh karooanga. atah tum log mere lie rath aur dhanush ki khoj karo, jisake dvara aj in daityoan ko bhootal par mar giraooan'? devata bole- 'deveshvar! ham log tinoan lokoan ke tej ki sari matraoan ko ekatr karake apake lie param tejasvi rath ka nirman kareange. vishvakarma ka buddhi poorvak banaya hua vah rath bahut hi sundar hoga. tadanantar un devasanghoan ne rath ka nirman kiya aur vishnu, chandrama tatha agni- in tinoan ko unaka ban banaya. prajanath! us ban ka shrriang (gaanth) agni hue. usaka bhall (phal) chandrama hue aur us shreshth ban ke agrabhag mean bhagavan vishnu pratishthit hue.

b de-b de nagaroan mean sushobhit parvat, van aur dvipoan se yukt praniyoan ki adharabhoota prithvi devi ko us samay devataoan ne rath banaya. mandarachal us rath ka dhura tha, mahanadi ganga jangha (dhure ka ashray) banian thian, dishaean aur vidishaean us rath ka avaran thian. nakshatroan ka samooh eeshadand hua aur kritayug ne jue ka roop dharan kiya. nagaraj vasuki us rath ka koobar ban gaye the. himalay parvat apaskar (rath ke pichhe ka kath) aur vindhyachal ne usake adharakashth ka roop dharan kiya. udayachal aur astaanchal donoan ko un shreshth devataoan ne pahiyoan ka adharabhoot kashth banaya. danavoan ke uttam nivas sthan samudr ko bandhanarajju banaya. saptarshiyoan ka samuday rath ka pariskar (chakraraksha adi ka sadhan) ban gaya. ganga, sarasvati aur siandhu- in tinoan nadiyoan ke sath akash trivenukashthayukt dhure ka bhag hua. us rath ke bandhan adi ki samagri jal tatha sampoorn nadiyaan thian.

din, rat, kala, kashtha aur chhahoan rrituean us rath ka anukarsh (niche ka kashth) ban gayian. chamakate hue grah aur tare varooth (rath ki raksha ke liye avaran) hue. trivenu-tuly dharm, arth aur kam-tinoan ko sanyukt karake rath ki baithak banaya. phal aur phooloan se yukt aushadhiyoan evan lataoan ko ghanta ka roop diya. us shreshth rath mean soory aur chandrama ko donoan pahiye banakar sundar ratri aur din ko vahaan poorvapaksh aur aparapath ke roop mean pratishthit kiya. dhritarashtr adi das nagarajoan ka bhi eeshadand mean hi sthan diya. phuphakarate hue b de-b de sarpoan ko us rath ke jot banaye. dyulok ko bhi jooe mean hi sthan diya. pralay kal ke meghoan ko yugacharm banaya.

kalaprishth, nahush, karkotak, dhananjay tatha doosare-doosare nag gho doan ke kesar baandhane ki rassi banaye gaye. dishaoan aur vidishaoan ne rath mean jute hue gho doan ki bagador ka bhi roop dharan kiya. sandhya, dhriti, medha, sthiti aur sanatisahit akash ko, jo grah, nakshatr aur taroan se vichitr shobha dharan karata hai, charm (rath ka oopari avaran) banaya. indr, varun, yam aur kuber- in char lokapalakoan ko devataoan ne us rath ke gho de banaye. sinivali, anumati, kuhoo tatha uttam vrat ka palan karane vali raka inaki adhishthatri deviyoan ko gho doan ke jote ka roop diya aur inake adhikari devataoan ko gho doan ki lagamoan ke kaante banaya. dharm, saty, tap aur arth- inako vahaan lagam banaya gaya. rath ki adharabhoomi man hua aur sarasvati devi rath ke age badhane ka marg thian. nana rangoan ki vichitr patakaean pavan prerit hokar phahara rahi thian, jo bijali aur indradhanush se bandhe hue us dedipyaman rath ki shobha badhati thian.

ghapatkar gho doan ka chabuk hua aur gayatri us rath ke oopari bhag ki bandhan rajju banian. poorvakal mean jo mahatma mahadev ji ke yajn mean nirmit hua tha, vah sanvatsar hi unake lie dhanush bana aur savitri us dhanush ki mahan tankar karane vali pratyancha bani. mahadev ji ke lie ek divy kavach taiyar kiya gaya, jo bahumooly, ratnabhooshit, rajagudharahit (athava dhool rahit svachchh), abhedy tatha kalachakr ki pahuanch se pare tha. kantiman kanakamay meru parvat rath ke dhvaj ka dand bana tha. bijaliyoan se vibhooshit badal hi patakaoan ka kam de rahe the, jo yajurvedi rritvijoan ke bich mean sthit huee agniyoan ke saman prakashit ho rahe the. manyavar! vah rath kya tha, sampoorn jagat ke tej ka puanj ekatr ho gaya tha. use nirmit hua dekh sampoorn devata ashcharyachakit ho uthe. phir unhoanne mahatma mahadev ji se nivedan kiya ki rath taiyar hai.

shiv ka rath par aroodh hokar yuddh ke lie udyat hona

purushasianh! maharaj! is prakar devataoan dvara shatruoan ka mardan karane vale us shreshth rath ka nirman ho jane par bhagavan shankar ne usake oopar apane mukhy-mukhy astr-shastr rakh diye aur dhvajadand ko akashavyapi banakar usake oopar apane vrishabh nandi ko sthapit kar diya. tatpashchath brahmadand, kaladand, rudradand tatha jvar- ye us rath ke parshvarakshak banakar charoan or shastr lekar kh de ho gaye. atharva aur aangira mahatma shiv ke us rath ke pahiyoan ki raksha karane lage. rrigved, samaved aur samast puran us rath ke age chalane vale yoddha hue. itihas aur yajurved prishtharakshak ho gaye tatha divy vani aur vidyaean parshvavarti banakar kh di ho gayian. rajendr! stotr-kavach adi, vashatkar tatha oankar- ye mukh bhag mean sthit hokar atyant shobha badhane lage. chhahoan rrituoan se yukt sanvatsar ko vichitr dhanush banakar apani chhaya ko hi mahadev ji ne us dhanush ki pratyancha banaee, jo ranabhoomi mean kabhi nasht hone vali nahian thi.

bhagavan rudr hi kal haian, atah kal ka avayavabhoot sanvatsar hi unaka dhanush hua. kalaratri bhi rudr ka hi aansh hai, atah usi ko unhoanne apane dhanush ki atoot pratyancha bana liya. bhagavan vishnu, agni aur chandrama- ye hi ban hue the; kyoanki sampoorn jagat agni aur som ka hi svaroop hai. sath hi sara sansar vaishnav (vishnumay) bhi kaha jata hai. amit tejasvi bhagavan shankar ke atma haian vishnu. atah ve daity bhagavan shiv ke dhanush ki pratyancha evan ban ka sparsh n sah sake. maheshvar ne us ban mean apane asahy evan prachand kop ko tatha bhrigu aur aangira ke rosh se utpann huee atyant duahsah krodhagni ko bhi sthapit kar diya. tatpashchath dhoomravarn, vyaghr charmadhari, devataoan ko abhay tatha daityoan ka bhay dene vale, sahasroan sooryoan ke saman tejasvi nilalohit bhagavan shiv tejomayi jvala se avrit ho prakashit hone lage. jis lakshy ko mar girana atyant kathin hai, usako bhi girane mean samarth, vijayashil, brahmadrohiyoan ke vinashak bhagavan shiv dharm ka ashray lene vale manushyoan ki sada raksha aur papiyoan ka vinash karane vale haian.

unake jo apane upayog mean ane vale rath adi gunavan upakaran the, ve shatruoan ko math dalane mean samarth, bhayanak balashali, bhayankar roopadhari aur man ke saman vegavan the. unase ghire hue bhagavan shiv ki b di shobha ho rahi thi. rajanh! unake panchabhoot svaroop aangoan ka ashray lekar hi yah adbhut dikhayi dene vala sara charachar jagat sthit evan sushobhit hai. us rath ko juta hua dekh bhagavan shankar kavach aur dhanush se yukt ho chandrama, vishnu aur agni se prakat hue us divy ban ko lekar yuddh ke liye udyat hue. rajan! prabho! us samay devataoan ne pavitr sugandh vahan karane vale devashreshth vayu ko unake liye hava karane ke kam par niyukt kiya. tab mahadev ji danavoan ke vadh ke liye prayatnashil ho devataoan ko bhi darate aur prithvi ko kampit karate hue se us rath ko thamakar us par chadhane lage.
