Some useful details[edit]

While searching about Mers a couple of days ago, I stumbled upon some details about the subject of this article. I am quoting them here for those who might be interested in fixing this article:

Teja-ji (c. 1256-1304), son of Ramkunwari and Tahar-ji Dhauliya Jat of Khadnal (Nagaur), similarly fought a crucial battle to rescue Lacchha Gurjari’s cows, which had been driven away by Mer raiders before returning, critically wounded and dying, to keep his fore-pledged word to a snake. To this snake, the badly wounded Teja-ji offered his tongue to bite, that being the only area not wounded by enemy swords. In turn, the snake vowed that thereafter anyone who called upon Teja-ji’s protection would be safe from death by snake bite. This would also apply to animals placed under the protection of Teja-ji’s name or amulet. Shukla tenth of the month of Bhadrapada is popularly marked as the day sacred to Teja-ji, when his protection is particularly invoked by the rural population of Rajasthan even today.^[1]

PS: The above few lines are taken from a book of 1200-plus pages, and they are not even close to being its important content. So there is no problem regarding WP:COPYQUOTE. - NitinMlk (talk) 23:29, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
