Jai Eklingji, the protector of Maharana Pratap of Mewar

Ekling

Ekling ji is Lord Shiva, the ishta devata of the brave Maharanas of Mewar that included names like Maharaha Pratap and his glorious ancestor Bappa Rawal - the man who chased Mohammed Bin Qasim back to Arabia and captured several lands that had been captured by the Islamic attacker.

This temple is part of a complex that has 108 other temples. It is located near Udaipur in Rajasthan. Lord Ekling ji has four faces and his idol is fashioned out of black marble. The Maharanas of Mewar considered themselves as dewans or custodians of Mewar, and maintained that it was Lord Ekling ji who is the real owner of Mewad.

Shri Radhe Maa - Katha of Mahashakti Mata Khodiyar

Khodiyar Mata

In the sixth century, Mamaniya Gadhvi, a devotee of Lord Shiva, decided to end his life when some palace guards insulted him for being childless. The merciful Lord appeared before his devotees and took him to Nagaloka where the daughters of Nagdeva, the king of the realm assured Mananiya that he should return home and prepare eight cradles and they would do the rest.

Eight snakes entered the cradles and Mamaniya had seven daughters and one son. Mata Khodiyar, who manifested in Mamaniya's house was one of the seven. She displayed her powers at an early age and it was clear to all that she was a manifestation of Mata Adi Shakti, the Empress of the Universe.

As Mamania was of the Charan caste, Mata Khodiyar is honored by all Gujaratis as a Charan's daughter. The Charans are renowned for their readiness in battle, literary and musical ability and their loyalty for their patrons.

May Mata Khodiyar, the protector of the weakest, bless us with courage, devotion and love for all beings!

When Lord Krishna ate banana pulp - a moving lesson in bhakti

Lord Krishna

 

Vidhura's wife was so moved to learn that Lord Krishna was at her door that she forgot that she was wearing nothing and rushed to serve the Lord. She has been bathing. The Lord took the cloth covering his upper body and covered Vidhura's wife with it.

She was so taken by the Lord that she peeled the bananas and threw the pulp away. Lord Krishna smiled and merrily ate the peel.

Vidhura returned home to see this strange sight. He was upset with his wife and scolded her. He then offered some bananas to the lord - the pulp this time and the Lord said, "The pulp is not sweet as the peels served by your wife."

 

Such, dear friends, is the sweet Lord.

Jai Yogeshwar Shri Krishna!

Shri Radhe Maa - Mata Shabari & the secret of bhakti

 

Lord Ram and Shabari

When Lord Rama ate the berries that had been tasted by Shabari, Lakshman was incensed at her impudence. How dare she offer the Lord food that had been tasted by another. Lakshman even when he was angry was upset because his love for the Lord was pure. Because it was pure Lord Rama accepted that anger as he would a gift.

And he knew the sentiment behind Shabari's offering of berries that had been tasted by her and accepted that too. 

This tells us that the Lord is served both with a sense of devotion that will not accept anything but the best for the Lord and also by berries that are not pure in the worldly sense. What he accepts is the bhava with which we offer what we do to him. 

May Shri Ragunandana, the Lord and master of Mata Shabari, bless us with a longing for his lotus feet, which destroy all sins

Hail Maa Durga Mahishasur Mardini of Guharagarh, Maharashtra!

Mata Durga of Guhagarh is the kuladevi of several Chitpavan Brahmins of Guharagarh, Chiploon, in the Ratnagiri district of Maharshtra, a land known for its saints, visionaries and warriors.

The temple was shifted here from an old site nearby where a pillar marks the spot. While the Devi faught Mahishasur the demon a pearl from her ornament broke and fell in the area where the temple is located.

The pearl continues to be a part of the temple treasury where it is valued for its connection to the Great Mother whose mere glance can cause one to transcend the cycle of birth and death and attain to immortality. 

The temple also has smaller shrines dedicated to the five forms of divinity sanctioned by Adi Shankaracharya - Ganesh, Surya, Lakshmi Narayan, and Shiva. 

May Mother Durga of Guhagarh Chiploon bless us with intelligence, courage and discrimination that distances us from objects that give fleeting pleasure and take us to the service of the the Divine Mother whose play animates the universe!

Jai Mata Di! Jai Maa Durga durgatinashini!
