Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj

19th February is the date of Shivjayanti as declared by Government. As per Hindu culture, we should celebrate Shivjayanti as per Hindu lunar calender i.e. on 24th March 2008

Quote: People who sing and dance in a procession organised to celebrate the birth anniversary of Shivaji Maharaj will never understand his importance. Only one who puts in efforts like him will perceive his greatness and surrender at his feet!

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is a principle of effulgence, rather a divine inspiration. He is certainly not human, he is God. In fact he is a Primal God who took birth in a divine and pure culture.

Biography: An everflowing spring of inspiriation The biography of Shivaji Maharaj has an answer for any problem faced by a Hindu or Indian politicians; however for this purpose the biography should be read with shrewdness and insight. If read by Hindus with the immoderate vision of Gandhi with respect to non-violence, truth, pleasing Muslims, or the coloured spectacles of Nehru who with the concept of `all religions are equal’ meted out inferior treatment to Hindus, then Hindus will not even become aware of when they were circumscribed! Gandhi, Nehru and their descendants had created terror in the minds of the people about what they would have to suffer if they even uttered the name of Shivaji Maharaj. In fact Shivaji Maharaj has been totally eliminated from the history text books at the Secondary school level. History on Shivaji Maharaj is taught and finished in the III or IV standards as if they are fairy tales for children to read and forget. Politicians have ensured that youths and adults do not get any inspiration from the biography of Shivaji Maharaj simply because it is an everflowing spring of inspiration for Hindus! This is a small effort made to get a sip of water from this this pure spring on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Shivaji Maharaj tomorrow!

Shivaji Maharaj’s inspiration to protect Hinduism! Since childhood Shivaji Maharaj was fully aware that he had to fight the Mughals. In his book 'Chatrapati Shivaji Maharajanche Saptaprakaranatmak Charitra’ Malhar Ramrav Chitnis has described the mindset of Prince Shivaji when living with his father Shahajiraje at Vijapur. He pens Prince Shivaji’s thoughts as, “ We are Hindus. These Yavans (Muslims) are inferior to us. There is none more inferior than them. I am distressed by serving them, eating food served by them, flattering them or even greeting them. It is so wrong to see the ridicule of one’s own religion. As we walk down the road we see cows being slaughtered. At that time I feel like beheading the killers and the distress grows even more. What is the use of living to see a cow being tormented ? I am compelled to remain silent because of being reprimanded by my father otherwise I feel like killing the one indulging in cow slaughter. It is not at all good to be in the company of Muslims. So also it is inappropriate to go to the court (darbar) of the emperor or to visit every wealthy man.” As soon as he returned from the Vijapur court he would bathe and change clothing. It is at this very age that young Prince Shivaji showed his valorous nature by chopping off the hand of a butcher who was dragging a cow for slaughter in another kingdom !

Inspiration endowed by Chatrapati Shivaji is very clear from the above incidents. The biographer has strengthened this further in the following words of Shivaji Maharaj, “ We are Hindus. The entire southern region has been invaded by the Muslims and our religion is going downhill. Hence one should not hesitate to sacrifice even one’s life to protect religion. By doing so one would add to one’s treasure of valorous deeds”. Soon thereafter by taking the vow of Raieshvari and conquering the `Torana’ fort Shivaji Maharaj revealed his nature to the world.

[^Top] Talk about Muslims in Shivaji’s army and their valorous deeds! Today people are talking of the concept of `equality of religions’ in society. The Congress party is trying to depict him as non-communal and secular. Nowadays some Hindu protagonists are trying to drag Shivaji Maharaj into the camp of secularism by making statements such as `there were Muslim soldiers in his army’. Really these are pearls of wisdom by these so-called ardent (hypocrite) lovers of Hinduism!

In this context the author of the book `Marathi Riyasati’ and a great historian, Sardessai writes, “ Towards 1649, 500-700 Pathans from Vijapur came to Shivaji Maharaj in search of jobs. Though he did not approve of employing them, with the counsel of Gomaji Naik Pansabal that `these people have come after hearing about your popularity so please do not disappoint them. If you remain adamant that you will employ only Hindus and that you do not need others then you will not be able to establish a kingdom. So include all eighteen communities of all four varna (classes) of society and should allow them to carry out their own duties’ he employed the servitors of Radho Ballal Korde. However these Hindu protagonists are ignorant about facts in this context that the monarch also ensured that there were spies to keep watch on those Muslim soldiers !

If these 500- 700 soldiers made any attempt to divide the army then as was prevalent in those days he would also not hesitate to punish them (by throwing them over the cliff). It was not like today when a perpetrator of the India Parliament instead of being hanged goes scot free simply because he is a Muslim! In this context a historian researcher Mr. Ninad Bedekar says, “ A new idea that Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj had `several’ Muslims in his army is being projected. I will quote a few names. You can give me the rest ! When Prince Shivaji came to the Jagirs of Pune, Indore and Supe, of the representatives of Shahajiraje only three were Muslims, namely Siddi Ambar Bagdadi, Jainkhan Peerzade and Bahalimkhan. Of some more Muslims associated with Shivaji Maharaj were Nurkhan Beg the chief of his infantry. But the truth is that later at some juncture all these people were driven off because no mention of their names is made anywhere in the historical annals. After 1675 B.C. these people are nowhere in the picture. That way the British army also employed Indians as soldiers. Afzal Khan who attacked Shivaji Maharaj employed 3000 Maulas in his army, so can we call him secular ? Then why is this cord (like an iguana) of secularism wound tightly around necks of Hindus alone ? Claiming that Shivaji Maharaj was secular simply because he had a few Muslim soldiers in his army is an indicator of an over liberal intellect.

[^Top] Promotion of Sanskrut in honour of Hinduism! In the fight for independence and establishing his own kingdom, in every aspect Shivaji Maharaj did everything possible to promote Hinduism. His assembly of eight ministers was formed based on Hindu ideals. One comes across this concept of eight ministers in the Ramayan and the Mahabharat. King Dashrath too had eight ministers. In the Shantiparva of the Mahabharat also it has been suggested that exchange of thoughts of eight ministers is necessary. During the coronation ceremony Maharaj changed the Persian names of the ministers to Sanskrut as follows –

Persian Sanskrut Peshva Panta Pradhan Majmuadar Panta Amatya Vakiya navis Mantri Shuru navis Panta Sachiv Dabir Sumant Sar-e- naubat Senapati Sadra, Muhatsib Panditrav, Danadhyaksha Kazi-ul- kujat Nyayadish

Giving Sanskrut names was a hobby of this great king. In September 1665, that is around the time of Dasra before leaving on a journey he named all the forts from his kingdom. Malhar Ramrav Chitnis in the biography of the monarch, `Chatrapati Shivaji Maharajanche Saptaprakaranatmak Charitra’ has spoken about the forts as, `From place to place Maharaj would build a new fort to frighten the enemy. Varugad, Bhushangad, Mahimagad, Vardhangad, Sadashivgad, Macchindragad are some of them’. In the book `Marathyancha Itihas’ it is said, “Shivaji Maharaj loved Sanskrut. There are several points to testify this. He changed the names of forts to Raigad, Vishalgad, Suvarnagad, Vijaydurg, Prachandgad and Pandavgad.”

[^Top] Cosequences of not receiving inspiration from the biography of Shivaji Maharaj Lokmanya Tilak was the first to start the celebration of the birth anniversary of Shivaji Maharaj. He was followed by Svantrya Veer Savarkar in 1908 in London. Both these leaders were fully aware of the importance of this biography, but Gandhi and Nehru kept strict vigilance on this text ever since independence of India. That is why how a handful of Muslims invaded and destroyed Hindu kingdoms and gained control over the Hindu empire is not known to most Hindus after 1920. In fact it is because of this misguidance that they accepted the division of India without offering any resistance to it. Non- acceptance of this biography which would have inspired Indians has resulted in return of Muslim powers in the name of Pakistan and Bangladesh, to overpower Hindus. It is because the incidents in which Shivaji Maharaj tore open Afzal Khan’s abdomen and chopped off Sahishtekhan’s fingers, were kept secret that today we compromise by releasing hard core terrorists in return for release of the kidnapped daughter of an Indian Muslim Minister, Mufti Mohammed. India’s External Affairs Minister flies to the Kandahar desert in a special plane only to release criminals who have butchered Hindus ! In Kashmir Bitta Karate who beheaded 16 Hindus is released on parole ! In the 13 days after killing Afzal Khan Shivaji Maharaj conquered 16 forts and in contrast within a year of independence of India our politicians lost 1/3rd of our motherland in Kashmir to enemies ! Fearing Shivaji’s valour, till he was alive, Aurangzeb did not dare to even talk about conquering South India. Yet today the cunning, crafty Musharraf arrives in India to disrupt an Agra conference or dares to hang the Indian tricolour upside down on his personal aircraft.

[^Top] Subjects being fully aware of the struggle between righteousness and unrighteousness! Just as Maharaj was fully aware that he had to fight the Mughals so also were his subjects. The situation was such that people were worried whether Maharaj would return alive from the Agra jail. Despite that the leaders of home rule (svarajya) and the Maulas did not get unnerved and as per the plan of Shivaji Maharaj they protected the home rule. The Maulas were prepared to sacrifice even auspicious events in their families and were willing to face the jaws of death. Sinhagad, Pavankhind, Agra,... how many more forts do you want me to quote ? In this struggle between righteousness and unrighteousness many parents lost their sons and several women were widowed. They were all fully aware of why they were fighting the Mughals. These women clearly choose widowhood to being raped by Mughal sardars to retain their marital status namesake. Compare this attitude to the tantrums thrown by relatives of victims of the plane hijacked by terrorists to Kandahar. Both the central government and the majority of people of India seemed to forget with whom they were fighting this battle. The entire country is testimony to this.

The politicians of today and most of the people are still unaware of why we drove off the British from India. The Indian heroes have not shed blood in vain, to allow Aurangzeb to assume the throne of Hindustan, which Mountbatten had to vacate. If only we were to understand this then we would not have played cricket matches with Pakistan which is all set to wipe out Hindus in Kashmir, the land of Sage Kashyap. We would also not have given refuge to Bangladeshi infiltrators and would have driven off the Chinese ambassadors who stake a claim on Arunachal Pradesh. All this is a consequence of not being inspired for independence and home rule by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj!

[^Top] Beautiful flowers blossom from the creeper of Bharatiya Rajdharma! When describing Shivaji Maharaj his admirer Mr. M.S. Vabgaonkar writes, “ Shivaji is a beautiful flower which has blossomed from the Bharatiya creeper of rajdharma. The great promoter of Bharatiya Rajdharma, Kautilya in His holy text the Arthashastra, has imagined an ideal king and two thousand years later this king has taken birth in the form of Shivaji. The king described by Kautilya was one who emphasised on spying, who took full responsibility for procuring all the benefits of an attack onto himself, who was disinterested in worldly and sexual pleasures and was well versed in law and religion besides having an unblemished character and punishing subjects only when required. Even this has proved right as per Kautilya’s description in case of Shivaji. After 1920 the creeper of Bharatiya rajdharma was nurtured with the manure of `equality of all religions’, pleasing Muslims, etc. and from it sprang a number of poisonous flowers in the form of Mohandas-Jawaharlal or Manmohan-Soniya. To stop the blossoming of such vicious flowers, the Bharatiya rajdharma creeper must be punished with the support of the Sanatan Vedic religion and then watered with pure water from the Ganga in the form of the biography of Shivaji Maharaj! When this happens, from every leaf of the creeper will spring beautiful flowers like Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Only then will this creeper reach the skies!

Meaning: He can be glorified as successful, famous, blessed, valorous, meritorious and an icon of morality. There has been none like him, a knower of Dharma, who has protected Hindu Dharma in Maharashtra.

In Maharashtra the birth anniversary of Shivaji Maharaj is nothing but a procession, sprinkling of gulal and shouting slogans in his praise. Of the 250-300 people present here only 4-5 have read the biography of Shivaji Maharaj fully. It is unfortunate that these are the statistics in Western Maharashtra. Let us not even ponder on how these people will celebrate the birth anniversary of Shivaji Maharaj.

Kashiki Kala Jati, Mathura Masid Hoti l Agar Shivaji Na Hote, To Sunati Hot Sabaki ll

Meaning: Kashi has lost its splendour, Mathura has become a mosque; If Shivaji had not been, All would have been circumcised (converted)
