FOREWORD
Punjabi University, Patiala feels highly honoured in presenting the first volume of the Encyclopcedia ofThe Sikh Literature, the English version of Gurushabad Ratnakar Mahan Kosh by Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha. Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha was the most erudite Sikh scholar. Bhai Sahib's erudition, vision, hard work and devotion are unmatched. Mahan Kosh, his magnum opus, over which he spent fifteen years bears eloquent testimony to his great qualities. Visualized by him as the Encyclopcedia of The Sikh Literature, it comprises the exposition of 64,263 terms, relating in the first instance to Gurmat and Gurbani. He embellished his exposition with illustrations richly drawn from seminal Sikh sources. To his exposition, so opulently illustrated, Bhai Sahib sought to provide a wider perspective. Terms relating to the ancient Hindu scriptures, masterpieces of Sanskrit literature, the Indian systems of prosody, music and medicine are explicated with as much authority. Mahan Kosh, prepared in 1926 and published in 1930, is the 12 th in the history of encyclopredias in the world. Yet the world is unaware that a Sikh scholar did this pathbreaking scholarly work single handed at that time, when no modern research facilities were available. Magnificent source of profound and varied knowledge, Mahan Kosh has remained shrouded in mystery, particularly for people in India and abroad, not well-versed in the Punjabi language. For enabling them to make the best use ofthis vast reservoir of knowledge, Punjabi University Patiala has embarked upon its English translation. This stupendous project has been made possible by the liberal grant so magnanimously sanctioned by Captain Amarinder Singh, the Chief Minister of Punjab. Major A.P. Singh, grandson ofBhai Kahan Singh, has used his tremendous persuasive skills in arranging resources for the purpose. Eight decades back, Patiala State had rendered a great service by bearing all expenses of publication of Mahan Kosh in Punjabi. The name ofthe House ofPatiala figures a second time in bringing this store of knowledge in English version before the whole world.

PREFACE
This volume ofthe Encyclopcedia of The Sikh Literature is the English version ofthe first volume of Gurushabad Ratnakar Mahan Kosh popularly known as Mahan Kosh, Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha's creation of 1930 in four volumes. Mahan Kosh is the greatest work of scholarship till today published in Punjabi. Since the publication of its first edition, it has often been cited as the most authoritative reference work in the academic world. It is hard to think of a more cherished source of knowledge and general information about Sikhism. It presents the most comprehensive attempt to consolidate, authenticize and synthesize the knowledge of Sikh literature. It sets a trend in making an organized and systematic access to Sikh literature, philosophy, history, culture, Punjabi language as well as other ancient languages. Comprising 64,263 entries on seminal words drawn from all fields ofknowledge, Bhai Sahib put in rigorous work for fifteen years to explicate them. It is beyond human power to imagine the labour gone into the composition ofthis enormous work. The way this Encyclopredia has selected, organized, preserved and disseminated knowledge, is marvellous. It is an eloquent witness to the extraordinary phenomena of the genius of a race, the exquisite sensibility of a highly evolved and unique personality and the ethos of a particular epoch. What Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha did, was nothing short of a miracle. The Encyclopcedia of The Sikh Literature was designed to provide comprehensive and authentic version about the growth and development of Sikh literature. Sikh scriptures, Guru Granth Sahib, Dasam Granth, writings by Sikh savants form the kernal of this huge writing. No source of philosophical, historical or lexicographical skill has been spared to fulfil the purpose. To explicate the meanings of seminal words, illustrations are drawn from original sources. To my mind, the scope ofthis unimaginably grand work goes beyond these realms of knowledge. Hindu scriptures, literary epics, myths and chronicles have also been explained with equal authority. Thereby, Bhai Sahib's memorable work achieves cross-cultural proportions. To the discerning eye, the notes reveal a striking continuity of tradition from ancient to modern times. Etymologies or word-histories give interesting insights into the richness and versatility ofPunjabi language. There is no discounting ofBhai Sahib's understanding and felicity of expression. It is with great pleasure that Punjabi University, Patiala presents the translation ofthis wealth ofknowledge, to the English speaking public. We believe that the scope ofthis work is global, and reflects the needs ofthe present-day world at large. In an informal meeting with Major A.P. Singh and myself the novel and significant

Encyclop<edia of The Sikh Literature

idea of this project was first mooted by Sardar Swarn Singh Boparai, Vice-Chancellor, Punjabi University, Patiala. Sardar Swarn Singh Boparai has an excellent futuristic vision of Punjab, Punjabi and Punjabiyat in the fast changing world. While conceptualising this project, the Vice-Chancellor held that the rich cultural heritage ofthe Punjab should be presented and projected for global requirements. Convinced ofthe validity ofthis project, I discussed it with scholars of Sikh philosophy, history, literature and language. All praised the proposal and recommended its urgent need. Some highlighted the hardships as well. They underlined how much intellectual acumen was required. We weighed the pros and cons ofour capacities and resources. After detailed deliberations with officials and scholars, we decided to take up this challenging task. We submitted the proposal to the Department ofHigher Education, Government ofPunjab for financial help. The Department cautioned us about the numerous difficulties the proposed project entailed and directed us to submit some specimens oftranslation. We did the job and the concerned officials got convinced of our capacity and commitment and the grant was sanctioned without any delay. With such an ambitious project in hand, it was necessary to plan it with requisite care. Sardar Swarn Singh Boparai, our Vice-Chancellor not only encouraged us but guided us in this venture. He took the responsibility ofseeing that the project picked up momentum and got all support from the administration. As a first step, we identified prominent scholars, to serve on the Advisory Board. These distinguished scholars drawn from the fields of religion, philosophy, history, science, language, literature and culture, were gracious enough to advise and help us for finalizing the modalities of the project. They laid down guidelines which were crucial in devising the methodology. The Advisory Board was ofthe considered opinion that the translation of Gurushabad Ratnakar Mahan Kosh (Published by Sudarshan Press, Hall Bazar, Amritsar under an arrangement with Lala Dhani Ram Chatrik) must be authentic in letter and spirit. The important guidlines laid down by the Advisory Board were: 1. To preserve the authenticity and spirit of Mahan Kosh, the original text will be kept unaltered, and unedited. No editorial activity regarding addition, deletion, correction or updating will be taken up. II. The different categories into which the original text is classified i.e. the seminal word, its grammatical form, etymology, variant meaning, usage in quotations, bibliographical entry of the quotation etc., will be accurately identified. 111. The English version of Mahan Kosh will embrace the original Gurmukhi alphabetical order of the words. The Roman transliteration of the seminal word will follow the Gurmukhi word and will be placed in parenthesis. Transliteration will be done in accordance with its spellings and not pronunciation.

The etymological words will be kept in the original script (i.e. Persian, Devnagari, Roman). v. Only original quotations will be transliterated. VI. Footnotes will be given as in the original text. Vll. Equivalent computer fonts will be prepared from Gunnukhi fonts used in Mahan Kosh. The Advisory Board, played an important role in framing tihis project and identifying the team. I am grateful to all the respected members of the A.dviisory Board for their valuable guidance and support. The Editorial Board was entrusted the task of maintaining the authenticity, standardisation and uniformity oftranslation. We were fortunate to have Dr. Prem Singh, a linguist of great repute, Dr. Tejwant Singh Gill, a Professor of English, renowned translator and scholar of English and Punjabi literature and Dr" Gurkirpal Singh Sekhon, Professor of English and British trained linguist, in the Editorial Board. The efforts of the Editorial Board have gone a long way iin awarding final shape to the translated version. After rigorous discussions, its members: laid down the parameters for maintaining uniform standard oftranslation. While editing the text they worked like missionaries. We accepted the hand-written copies from the translators. The editors vetted, copyedited, supplied missing information on their o\vn, got the material typeset and monitored till its final stage. It is worth noting that the translated text has gone through so many proofreadings before it was finalized for print order, The Editorial Board held eighteen sittings to discuss the keys and lay down rules for maintaining uniformity. For the translators, two workshops: were organized. With the sane advice ofthe senior scholars and the collective wisdom ofthe experts working in the field, we laid downsome rules which are given in the Editors' Note. The contribution of the Editorial Board is remarkable indeed. In this volume, the translation aspect of the text, has been vetted wholly by Dr. Tejwant Singh Gill. Transliteration and the related linguistic exercise has been performed by Dr. Gurkirpal Singh Sekhon. My special thanks go to both of them for their tireless contribution. They have put in enormous amount ofwork with commendable coordination. Dr. Gurkirpal Singh Sekhon was assigned the additional job of giving print order for the whole text. He has been tireless in this regard as welL The translators took on the challenging task and worked enthusiastically to complete it. It was impossible to evolve a flawless and perfect model for such a tough and complicated text dealing with numerous subjects i.e. religion, history, philosophy, literature, music, medicine and art, etc. There is no aspect oflij~:::, that this Encyclopredia has not covered. Its scope is so wide and treatment is so intensive: that no scholar can claim complete authority over the knowledge it conveys. This volume is a collective

endeavour put in by an excellent team oftranslators. An open call to scholars in the field and experts in the art oftranslation was made to assist the project. I am proud to say that senior scholars offered their services for this prestigious cause. The list of the translators to this volume is appended alongwith. I want to express my deep gratitude and sincere thanks to all the translators. It is worth to mention that the major part of the translation ofthis volume was done by the late Major Gurmukh Singh, a lexicographer of great dedication and compiler of the highly acclaimed Punjabi-English Dictionary, earlier published by Punjabi University, Patiala. He showed examplary commitment to this formidable task. He started his work on the very first day we organized a meeting of scholars (including Major Gurmukh Singh) to discuss the feasibility of the project and kept on working till last breath of his life. He translated all words ofthe first three Gurmukhi characters (i.e. "-, "f and 1:) included in this volume. He completed the assignment, enshrined the papers in a file for handing them over to me. That very evening, he breathed his last, thereby putting Punjabi University under a debt ofgratitude to him. This Volume has been completed in a period oftwo years. The Advisory Committee of University Scholars met on May 12,2004 to discuss its viability and opined that the project could actually start only when the Editorial Board laid down the guidelines. The Advisory Board met four times and final ized the guidelines in a workshop held on September 13,2004 in the University Campus. Hence, it has taken exactly two years to complete this task. Taking into account the magnitude of the work, we can proudly say that this project has been completed in a record time. The credit for its successful completion in record time goes to the commitment and dedication of all those who were involved in it, the Advisory Board, the Editorial Board, the translators, the keyboarders, the proofreaders, the secretarial staffand all the well-wishers. The honourable Chief Minister of Punjab, Captain Amarinder Singh has been kind enough to lend valuable support to this project. The Punjab Government, under his dynamic and visionary leadership, has liberally sanctioned a grant of rupees forty one lacs. Almost eight decades back, the Patiala State had fulfilled its obligation by bearing all expenditure for its publication. By undertaking to bring out its English version, the esteemed Chief Minister has repeated his predecessors' feat with added glory. Punjabi University has the honour to dedicate the English version of Gurushabad Ratnakar Mahan Kosh to the worthy Chief Minister. With his acumen and sharp wisdom, Sardar Swam Singh Boparai has initiated many visionary projects in Punjabi University, Patiala. The present one is the most prestigious academic endeavour. It embraces global dimensions. It was just not possible to complete this task in such a short span oftime without his patronizing persuasion, valuable guidance and administrative support. He has remained sensitive to the travails of the team and

moved in to aid its completion. As the co-ordinator ofthe project, I felicitate him and owe him a deep debt of gratitude. Major A. P. Singh, a kin to Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha is an enthusiastic supporter and has done a lot for this project. My sincere thanks are due to him for his extensive efforts in initiating and getting this project started. The Department of Advanced Centre for Technical Development of Punjabi Language, Literature and Culture headed by Dr. Gurpreet Singh Lehal was extremely helpful in offering digitilization services to this project. Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha had created almost nineteen new fonts in Gurmukhi to meet the needs ofPersian and Sanskrit sources of Mahan Kosh. The Romanisation of Gurmukhi script needed many more fonts. The Department was very helpful in meeting all the computer problems. Mr. Rajinder Singh and Ms. Bharti under the guidance of Dr. G.S. Lehal very successfully keyboarded the text. Mr. Rajinder Singh has worked hard to consolidate the entire material into a coherent form worthy ofpublication. His contribution is highly appreciated. I am thankful to the department ofAdvanced Centre of Technical Development ofPunjabi Language, Literature and Culture for the sincere and timely cooperation. I wish to express my warm appreciation for the great assistance rendered in proof reading and editing by Mrs. Inderjit Kaur and Mr. Satnam Singh.. Without their remarkable expertise this volume would not have acquired the required standard. I would like to thank the Publication Bureau ofPunjabi University, Patiala headed by Dr. Satish Sharma, for its timely help. S. Harjit Singh's artistic and technical aid should be appreciatively acknowledged. I also want to express my gratitude to all the well wishers ofthis project. Everybody in the academics or in the administration, when asked for help, responded with enthusiasm and generosity. I am indebted to my senior faculty members and colleagues for their sincere advice and unfailing support. lowe profuse thanks to all the administrative staff ofthe department, Mrs. Harsharan Kaur in particular, for clerical contribution tirelessly rendered, without any reservation, whatsoever. This translated volume is a work of pioneering nature. Inspite of rigorous efforts put in for achieving uniformity in approach, presentation, translation and transliteration, some lapses might have remained. Nevertheless the Encyclopa~dia ofThe Sikh Literature will fulfil the intended purpose cmd prove to be a magnificient tool ofreference-work for scholars all over the world. Its publication will definitely widen the horizons, the study ofPunjabi literature, language and culture have so for claimed.. This will be of immense help to the Punjabi Diaspora as well as scholars of English who would like to study Sikh literature, history and culture. I, sincerely, believe that this prestigious publication will encourage academic and research work in the field of various kinds of studies relating to Sikhism, history, culture, language and literature ofPunjab. This wonderful store ofknowledge

and wisdom will acquire altogether a new dimension and meaning across lands, languages, literatures and cultures. With a deep sense of gratitude and ardent hope, I feel elated and elevated while presenting this monumental work to the readers, researchers and scholars.

EDITORS' NOTE
This is the first volume ofthe English version ofBhai Kahan Singh Nabha's Mahan Kosh, also termed by him as Encyclopredia ofThe Sikh Literature, published in four volumes. The first volume, spread over 760 pages, explicates words and tenus begiIming with the first four characters ofthe Punjabi script in sequential order. Sticking to the sequential order observed by Bhai Sahib in the original, the English version maintains that without any diminution and diversion. All care is taken to maintain the authenticity ofthe original text. Each word, phrase and sentence ofBhai Sahib, figuring at whichever place in the entry, is translated into English. Quotations, given by Bhai Sahib from variegated sources and documents are transliterated in specially evolved symbols. For transliterating them, a methodology was devised, and to avoid any vagary, every effort was made to stick to rules so devised. After several deliberations, the choice ofsymbols for transliteration was decided for reasons ofconvenience and clarity ofusage. The detail ofthis methodology goes as under: SYMBOLS FOR TRANSLITERATl[ON

TRANSLITERATION RULES
1. 2. 3. 4. Transliteration ofquoted material, long passages or short lines, is within double quotes. In Gurmukhi orthography, there are 10 vowels: 3 short, and 7 long. The short vowels are: >x/- [<'I], fulf- [I], and fI/~ [u]. The long vowels are: lW/-T [a], -a/-I [i], fI/= [u], E/~ [e], t/ :: [f], ~/~ [0], and nV:: [::J]. Gurmukhi symbols before the 'slashes' in 2) and 3) are used syllable-initially or as second part ofa diphthong, and those after the slashes, called M [l<'lga] , are hooked to the Gurmukhi consonant symbols. Final consonant in a syllable is always d-free, that is ?:fCBT [muk ta]. In qa [k<'lr] and~, 'q-' is ~ [<'Ikarat] and '0' is'ljCiBT [mukta]. ~ [<'Ikarat] means that the consonant symbol includes <'I, and'!::fC.ET [mukta] means that the consonant in question is <'I-less. To put in other words, <'I is neither marked nor pronounced after the last consonant of a syllable. Short vowels, I and u, are not normally pronounced ifhooked to the final consonant ofa word. All long vowels, on the contrary, are pronounced in all positions. Since the three short vowels are not pronounced after the last consonant of a word (even though I and u are marked in Gurmukhi as also in transliteration), they do not constitute the nucleus ofthe last syllable. The nucleus of the last consonant of a word to which a long vowel is hooked is the long vowel itself. In all other cases - that is, where a short (unpronounced) vowel is hooked to the last consonant - the d preceding the final consonant constitutes the nucleus. In view ofsomewhat Sanskritized and Persianized vocabulary of Punjabi, a number of words may have conjunct consonants like ~ [knpa], ~ [svEjivni], 1:!1f[khadya], Ol;f [r<'lkhya] etc. formed by adding halfletters to the preceding consonant. Similarly, there are quite a few cases of consonant clusters like.'UQF.f [h<'ln?], ~ [h<'lst], ~ [b<'lhI$t], fum [bIstl, ~ [k<'lrm], O@f [g<'lrml, ffif8" [s<'Irb], Rat [s<'Ird] occurring finally in a written word, though it cannot be denied that most Punjabis declusterize these consonants by interposing a d in between them exactly as Gurmukhi orthography demands. But a few hyper-sensitive and sophisticated speakers prefer d-Iess pronunciations in such cases. We follow lhe practice of declusterization of the consonants by inserting a d between them. We also find occasional use ofvIsdr<'lg [g] and udat U symbols in Gurbani as in

16. In the case of two abutting consonants, the first consonant is the arresting (closing) consonant ofthe first syllable, and the second consonant is the releasing (initiating) consonant of the next syllable. In such a situation no d intervenes between the two consonants. Remember: there is no d marked in between two consonants in transliteration when the former closes a syllable and the latter starts the next. 17. Taking this view, it is possible to posit a syllable structure for PWljabi : (C) (C) V (C), which gives us the following syllables: 1. V [w]; 2. VC [~]; 3. CV [w]; 4. cvc [ito]; 5. ccv [1ft]; 6. CCVC [fq-3"]. 18. The commonest syllables are the first four: V; VC; CV and CVe. The last two occur with varying degree of frequency depending on a number offactors. 19. In our transliteration, nasalization is marked only when the original text demands it. In no case, do we supply nasalization on our own. A tilde /- / is used for nasalization in Punjabi. It appears over the vowel carrying nasalization: <fu" /kat/ ... >mI /ab/ 20. All quoted material including long passages/stanzas in the Mahan Kosh is transliterated. 21. Head word(s) of every entry is/are transliterated immediately after it/them within square brackets. Cross-references in the 1l1ahan Kosh are not tramsliterated, only the Gurmukhi form is given as it is. Transliteration follows only the headwords. Words written in Devnagari, Arabic/Persian scripts are retained as such to the extent possible, but wordsfrom Sanskrit/Hindi, and Persian/Arabic written in Bhai Kahan Singh s modified Gurmukhi script are transliterated within the framework ofthe rules devised for transliteration of Punjabi words as given above, irrespective of current practices adopted for their transliteration in respective languages. 22. When two Gurmukhi vowel symbols are hooked to the same consonant, the one hooked over the consonant precedes the one hooked below the consonarlt in transliteration:

followed by 'h' sound thus: ~ kab-hu. By retaining voiced aspirated consonants in our transliteration, we have only tried conservatively to trudge a relatively safe track.

SOME OTHER RULES Translation: We have provided within single quotes translation only for references which Bhai Sahib Kahan Singh has translated, and to the extent he has done it. Punctuation: Following Bhai Kahan Singh's punctuation may seem difficult to follow, but consistency, uniformity and editorial convenience suggested that we deviate from it to the minimum extent possible. Proper Nouns: All proper nouns in the body ofthe running text have their usual roman spellings without an 'a', that is a schwa [a] after last consonant as per Punjabi practice, ie, Shiv, Ram, Krishan, Dev, Nanak. Footnotes: Footnotes are retained at the end ofthe relevant pages and not absorbed in the body ofthe text. This is to ensure that we stayed as close to Bhai Sahib as possible. Addendum: It was considered best to incorporate the addenda in the last Volume. Special Symbols: Like I S... for metre are retained. TRANSLITERATED PASSAGES FOR REFERENCE

NEW LETTERS
For writing in the standard language of a country, there is no need to form new letters. Whichever letters the scholars ofthe language have formed, those perform the whole task. While writing in a foreign language, the task gets tough. No wonder there is an urgent need to form new letters. For writing in Punjabi, the Gurmukhi letters are so flawless that no new formations are required. ~~ ~

INTRODUCTION
After going through Pandit Tara Singh's Guru Granth Kosh in Sammat 1955 (1898 AD) and Bhai Hazara Singh's Sri Guru Granth Kosh in 1957 (1900 AD), I got the idea to especially prepare a useful good lexicon by including words which have appeared in Guru Granth Sahib and arranging them in the order of characters and vowel symbols. I For making this idea a success, I commenced a special study of Sri Guru Granth Sahib which took me five years to complete. As I started arranging the words in order and saw the Encyclopredia Britannica, I thought that there should be a similar reference book for Sikh literature which might properly distinguish all words contained in Sikh religious literature. During Sammat 1963 (1906 AD), I studied Dasam Granth, and after that works ofBhai Gurdas, Bhai Nand Lal, Sarab Loh Prakash, Guru Sobha, Anecdotes by Bhai Mani Singh, Gurupad Prem Prakash, Hukamnamas, commentaries on Gurubani and several historical treatises. Having read them, I noted down words and after pondering over all aspects of etymology and semantics2 and after discussing them from time to time with learned men, I succeeded in discovering their actual and suggestive meanings. Due to several reasons, following the death of Maharaja Hira Singh of Nabha on May 10, 1912, I gave up service ofthe State; I went to Kashmir to spend the summer, and there on 20 th May after ardas started writing Gurushabad Ratnakar Mahan Kosh. It was completed on February 6, 1926. The completion ofthe book was followed by concern about its publication. Maharaja Brijendra Singh of Faridkot who had promised its printing and publication, had expired, and Maharaja Ripudaman Singh ofNabha, who for one and a half year had been giving ample funds for my staffand had sanctioned large amount of money for the printing ofthe book, abdicated and went away from Nabha. The Administrator ofthe state declared treasury as empty and declined to get the book published. At last in consultation with some friends, it was decided that five hundred customers should be found each ofwhom would pay halfthe price ofthe book in advance thus enabling it to be sent for publication. For this purpose one thousand specimen booklets were got printed and distributed as also advertisements were issued to newspapers. Only for two lIn Pandit Tara Singh's Kosh, thus is the order in which words begin and end: $ , 'Fl'fu3r, ~, FfeT, Fl<Ji'IFlHlfi:r, mo, RJ-!17), FRrll... etc. In Bhai Hazara Singh's Kosh, words observe this order as Ba-, ~, ~, ~, Bur, ~, ~, ~, ~, fu:rr3', ~, coo. etc.

Introduction

XXXI

hundred copies did the customers come forward over nine months. J Having been disappointed by the public, I appealed to the Sikh Maharajas, requested them to buy three hundred copies and favour me by assisting in the profitable venture. Maharaja Bhupendra Singh ofPatiala called me to Chail on October 1, 1927 and issued an order that he would meet all expenditure on the Mahan Kosh, and that it would be published by the State ofPatiala and that all advance payment received from the prospective buyers be returned forthwith. This was done and the printing ofthe book commenced at Sudarshan Press Amritsar on October 26, 1927 and ended on April 13" 1930. 2 The contents ofthis Mahan Kosh (Encyclopa:dia ofThe Sikh Literature) the readers will know themselves by reading it, butto mention them briefly in the introduction seems appropriate indeed: (1) Included are words from all well-known books ofprose and verse whichrelate to Sikhism. (2) Not only the alphabetical order ofwords, but that ofthe vowel symbols has also been maintained, like -- ~ [dO], ~ [duSdr], '1?i~5' [duhdth], ~ [duhar], ~ [dukh], ~ [dukhdd]" ~ [dUgU!)], ~.

In this regard, readers are required to keep in mind that in Sanskrit 1708 roots have resulted in lacs of words. On further investigation, it seems valid to hold that betwixt the roots and the words formed therefrom, supreme is the conceived meaning. From vr~' is derived })ff]:r [dSI]. The root means 'to cut'. On this basis, })ff]:rcan without any problem be used for~T [kuhara], ~ [chdvhi] or Zor" [toka]l, but by extension this word has been used by scholars for a sword too. (4) If a word has several meanings" its components are given and with examples their meanings are classified. See ffif, ~Jfu, qI}-f, "CJli3", ~, <%, ft~~, ~r, mf, BTQ, ~... etc. (5) If a noun relates to a Puran, Simriti or ShastaI', its fulll detail is provided.

For instance ~ [caUrI] after ~ [caur], ~ [rInhI] after ftf"q [rInh] have been separately put. Similarly See qrfu, t=rflr, Hfo, Hurfu... etc. 2 IRuralites, use onomatopoeic words as edt cit3-a't. tSt 1fClT. o;ff BeT... etc. 2[, myself, have heard certain scholarly persons pronounce R ~ as ~ and ~ "8'""cI<JT ~ 1:fTfuw as ~ Ci1<JT<3" () 'l:fTfurr.

(24) New letters have been devised to transliterate in Punjabi the words of Sanskrit, Arabic and Persian so as to enable their correct pronunciation. 1 Historians of languages know that a word after entering another language becomes a part of that language. To relegate such Punjabi words back to their original form would be a hostile act against the mother tongue. See illustrations under heading seventeen ofword-distinctions and altered words. (25) At the end of the illustrations, information is provided about poets and their writings. 2 A list of symbols used has been given in the beginning of the book under the head' ABBREVIATIONS' To give detail of obstacles and disappointments faced during the preparation and publication of this book would lessen the enthusiasm of the writers. However it is also necessary to mention in passing that our community has very little regard for work ofthis kind. Not many know how such works are written and what benefit can to be drawn from them. I am highly indebted and grateful to those votaries ofknowleclge who provided me help in this venture, especially reverend Bhai Bishan Singh Ji, Mahant Gurdwara Baba Ajapal Singh, Nabha, who took great pain in writing in order the words noted by me from numerous volumes, Pandit Krishandas Shastri Udasin, professor Teja Singh, M.A., Khalsa College and Bhai Dharmant Singh who gave valuable suggestions during the revision. Raja Sir Daljit Singh of Kapurthala and Sardar Mukand Singh Engineer Simla spared time to write on 'rags', Bhai Mohan Singh Vaid ofTam Taran and Bhai Dharam Singh Ji Vaid ofBudiala, helped in writing about diseases. Sardar Nand Singh Ramgarhia of Simla contributed a lot in the preparation ofmaps of gurdwaras, Maulana Maulavi Hakim Mirza Muhammad Nazir Sahib Asshe, Munshi Fazil took the trouble of replying to historyrelated queries, Late Dhani Ram 'Chartik', Printer Sudarshan Press Amritsar, not behaving like a businessman but as a votary ofknowledge, published it, excellently with enthusiasm and devotion. Last of all, I am grateful to the court ofPatiala entitled to blessing from Satguru and honour from Sikh Panth through the benevolence of which this book has reached the readers. 3 I am highly indebted to those scholars whose histories, glossaries, dictionaries etc. have been helpful in this endeavour ofmine. 4
'See under 'New Letters'. 2Suc h quotations as carry no names of authors at the end are mine. JDue to the publication of 1000 copies instead of 500 as envisaged eadier, the increase of pages from 3000 to 3338 and the retention of scholars for supervision, the price has been increased to Rs. 110/from the initial one of Rs. 70/-. It does not include any payment to the author for devoting so much time to the project. 4The names of books are not listed to avoid increase in size.

Utath drank up the entire ocean. Still Varun did not relent. When Varun's pond went dry and the entire universe became waterless, Varun sought refuge with Utath and restored Bhadra to him. The latter was highly pleased to have his wife back, and he alleviated all the troubles of Varun. There is a story in Mahabharat that Mamta was Utath's wife.

Mamta and her child in the womb warned him against the alleged sin. Vrihaspati cursed the child with blindness. Thus the child came to be called Dirghtama (literally great darkness). See

(1541-42 AD). He was cowardly and disgraced the name of his dynasty. His illustrious son Rana Pratap (who is considered the pride ofthe Rajput race) founded Udaypur and named it after his father. It is now the famous capital of Rajputana. See ~. 2 Mani Ram was the son of Mai Das of Alipur (district Multan). He was a Raj put who dedicated all his five sons Uday Singh, Ajab Singh, Ajaib Singh, Anak Singh and Vichitar Singh to the service of Guru Gobind Singh. The. tenth Guru baptised them on 1 Vaisakh Sammat 1756 when he founded the Khalsa and initiated them into Sikhism. Uday Singh once killed a tiger and presented its hide to the Guru,who put it on an ass that became fearless and roamed in the fields grazing freely because no one dared go near and check it. Once hearing the sound of donkeys braying, it joined them and went to the house of its master, the potter, and indulged in a boistorous horseplay along with the other donkeys. The potter, recognizing its real worth removed the tiger skin from its back and put a heavy load on it. Giving its analogy the Guru instructed his disciples by telling that those who, forsaking the Khalsa, reverted to their old caste system would meet thesame fate as met the said ass'. During the battle of Sammat 1758, Uday Singh severed the head of Raja Keshri Chand, stuck it on his spear and brought it to the Guru. When the Guru evacuated Anandpur, Uday Singh was with him and on W3Y to Chamkaur in Sammat 1761 he fought bravely against the enemy and attained martyrdom.

In order to understand this figure ofspeech, four terms i.e. upman, upmey, dharam and vacak should be thoroughly grasped: 'upman' is an object whose quality is compared with that ofanother, as for example the moon's brightness/beauty is compared with a face. 'upmey' is that object which is recipient of an attribute of some other object, as for example, the face that is imagined comparable to the moon. 'dharam' or 'sadharaI). dharam' is the common quality bi~ing compared. In the present example, the common quality or dharam is brightness ()r charm which is common to both the moon and the face. 'vacak' is an expression or a word pointing to the fact ofsimiillarity. For example in "locan amal kamaldal jEse." the word 'jEse' is a vacak. Other words such as tEsa, JID, tID, sam, so, sa, yatha, itatha, b, etc. are indicative of this similarity. The figure of speech in which all these four qualities are found goes by the name of pur))opma ali'lkar. In the above example, netr is upmey, kamal

He was the son of Kahod, a Brahman, born to Sumati (Sujata), daughter of Uddalak. Thus goes his story in the Mahabharat. Once while Ashtavakar was nn his mother's womb, Kahod was teaching Vedic texts to his disciples. The foetus of Ashtavakar told his father that he was reciting the Ved incorrectly. Kahod got angry and cursed the child to have crooked limbs. So eight parts of the newborn got crooked. According to Vishnu Pural), once, standing in water, while Ashtavakar was praying, four fairies paid obeisance to him. He

was pleased and he told the fairies to ask for any boon and he would grant it. They said that they wanted to marry the most handsome man. At this Ashtavakar came out of water and presented himselfas a prospective groom. They laughed at his crooked body. Ashtavakar got angry but remembering his promise, he resumed his cool and said, "Your wish will be fulfilled but you will fall in the hands of thieves." These fairies later became consorts of Krishan and after the destruction ofthe Yadavs, while Arjun was carrying them from Dvarka to Astinapur, they were captured by dacoits. It is written in Brahm Vaivart Puran, that Devm; son ofrishi Asit was observing austerities on the Gandhmadan mountain. When the fairy Rambha came there she got infatuated on seeing him. When she found that her desire would not be fulfilled, she cursed the rishi and his handsome body became crooked.

Skt 311/ClC'~, adj (one) whose voice is like the neighing of a horse. 2 n son ofDron, born to Kripi who gave out a neigh-like sound at birth and was therefore named Ashvthama. He was a commander of the Kaurav army. At the end of the final Kurukshetar battle, when Duryodhan was gravely wounded, only Ashvthama, Kripi and Kritvarma were left behind. He wanted to take revenge upon Dhrishtadyuman who had earlier killed his father Dron. He sneaked into the Pandavs' camp at night and killed Dhrishtadyuman in sleep. He then killed Shikhandi, son ofDrupad and five sons ofthe Pandavs and took their severed heads to Duryodhan. With the help of his Brahmastar he also killed Parikshit who was yet in the mother's womb. At this Krishan cursed him and blessed Parikshit with Iife. l On the following day, Ashvthama and his accomplices fled out of fear. Daraupadi wailed and called for the vengeance of her son's death. Yudh ishthar pleaded that, Ashvthama being a Brahman, it would be a sin to kill him. Draupadi agreed with this but demanded that the jewel in Ashvthama's forehead be brought and handed over to her. For this Bhim and Krishan went after Ashvthama, brought the jewel and gave it to her. Dropaudi passed this jewel on to Yudhishthar who studded it in his crown. >mflal [a~vpati] n the sun.

Skt a type of demigods, having the mouth of a horse. According to the Purans, they are adept in singing and dancing. ~ [a~vmedh] a religious sacrifice or oblation in which a horse is sacrified. In the remote times, ashvmedh yag was performed with a twin motive i.e. to prove the performer's sway over the entire land or for the sake of progeny. The procedure was that a horse under the spell of certain mantars or holy texts, was set free, with the name and royal dignity of the owner inscribed on its head. It was followed by the king and his army of chiefs. The horse went about in the country. Anyone challenging the sovereignty of the king would catch and tie the horse down. Then a battle would ensue. if the horse was recovered by the king, the chief who tied it down, had to accept the sovereignty of the king. At the end ofthe year, the horse was brought back to the capital where a yag (sacrificial ceremony) was held to which all the kings in whose territories the horse had roamed unhindered were asked to attend. An altar was erected on 21 poles and 18 pits were dug for a sacrifice. Numerous birds and animals were killed and their dead bodies were consigned to flames by the king and the queen. Then the sacrificial horse was brought in, duly washed amidst the chanting of hymns by the Brahman priests. It was slaughtered by the king and his queen with cries of triumph raised from all sides. In case the Ashvmedh was performed for the sake of progeny, the queen slept with the dead body of the sacrificed horse. The Hindus bel ieved that anyone who performed 100 such yags attained the rank of Indar. That is why, it is mentioned in the Purans that Indar often put hindrance in the way of the yags.

His father having been defeated by Sher Shah was then fleeing India. 1 Akbar occupied the throne of Delhi at the age of 13 years and nine months. The rule was carried on under the guidance of the prime minister and chief commander Bairam Khan (Khan Khana) till Akbar took complete control in Sammat 1617. He greatly extended the Mughal empire. In Sammat 1618, Akbar forged a relationship with Rajputs by marrying the daughter of Raja Bihari Mal of Ambar. 2 Later he also married a princess of Jodhpur. Bihari
'Akbar was born on November 23, but on the advice of the astrologers. to evade the evil influence ofthe planets, his birthday was declared to be October 15. For the same reason he was named Jalaludin Akbar in stead of Badrudin Ahmad.

Mal's son Bhagvan Das and grandson Man Singh were Akbar's famous generals who always stood by him. The emperor did not hesitate to give high ranks to the Hindus. Thus Todar Mal and Birbal were among his senior ministers. Rana Uday Singh ofMevar, who hated the Raja of Ambar because the latter had given his daughter in marriage to a Musalman, was naturally regarded by Akbar as an enemy. He invaded Chattaurgarh. Uday Singh was wounded and fled, but two Rajput chiefs Jaimal of Bednor and Patto (Phatta) of Kailvara fought against the Mughals so valiantly that the accounts of their gallantry still exercise charm upon the minds of the listeners. Both were among the sixteen nobles of Mevar. At last Jaimal was killed by a bullet from Akbar's gun. This has been mentioned by Akbar himselfand is recorded by Jahangir. The gun which killed Jaimal was named 'Sangram'(battlle).1 On the death of Jaimal, the rite ofJauhar,2 was performed in the course of which nine queens, five princesses, two princes and several Rajput ladies, hurled themselves in the pyre. This tragedy took place on 11 Chet Sammat 1624. Its anniversary is celebrated in every home in Mevar where poets and singers sing panegyrics to immortalise their memory. After the rituals of Jauhar, Patto and thousands of Raj puts in saffron dress came out of their fort and attained martyrdom fighting
IThis word is from Sanskrit and means 'a battle'. Akbar was very fond of employing Sanskrit words. But this word should have been accompanied by some other word from which information about the conquest or end could be gathered. But that word is missing. 2See, the word 'jJhar'. Some scholars have found 'jivhar' as its root.

against the army ofAkbar. The sacred threads ofthe martyrs, they say, weighed 74.5 maunds or 398 seers. It iis customary to inscribe the sacred figure of?811 on commercial letters of businessmen to purport that one who opens a letter not meant for him commits the sinful murder of Chattaur. This writing figures not only on letters but also on government papers and donations, "catJr marIa ra pap" meaning that a person who stops the charity would call upon himself the curse of the dead. See Col James Tod: The Rajasthan. From the letter written by the French physician Bernier on 1 July 1663, it seems that the two statUt:~s of elephant-riders in front ofthe gate ofthe Delhi fort are those ofJaimal and Patto. Their bravery inspired Akbar to instal them there. 3 Akbar stopped the collection ofJazia and pilgrimage tax imposed on the Hindus. He ordered Dharampur for Hindus and Khairpur for Muslims to be built where lodging and boarding for persons of these communities were provided. He stopped the practice of natural or divine justice (dIvynyay)4 and ordered that no widow could be forced to commit sati or immolation on her dead husband's funeral pyre. The emperor collected one third of the produce as tax. Nobles in active service were called 'mansabdars' (rank holders) each having 500 to 10,000 soldiers uneler him. Todar Mal was the chief revenue officer; under him were officers named kroris meant to purchase rations, c1othings, perfumes,

metals and precious stones. Subedars of provinces exercised both criminal and civil justice. They were called faujdars. ' In cities cases were decided by Kotvals and Qazis. In Akbar's rule people could perform their religious rites without restriction. The emperor was fond of listening to merits of various religions. He was also a poet of Hindi and composed a verse on the death of Birbal. "din jan sukh din, ek TId dino dusah dukh, so ab ham ko din, kachu na rakhyo, birbal."2 Akbar also visited Guru Amar Das and received his blessing, Bhai Santokh Singh mentions: tab akbar dIlli te ava, sarIta utar SIvar nIj pava, dhar pratitI dar~an ko cahyo, uttam lin upayan ahyo.-GPs. Besides being an emperor, he also considered himself a religious Khalifa (prophet's deputy) and he started a religious sect, Din Elahi, to forge unity among all religions. Its members, on meeting greeted one another with' Allahu Akbar'(God the great). He developed Agra, which he renamed as Akbarabad. He got built the Red Fort and other buildings. A beautiful building at Fatehpur Sikri shows that Akbar loved to synthesise Indian and foreign architectures. His extensive empire was divided into 18 provinces called subas. They were Allahabad, Agra, Avadh, Ajmer, Gujrat, Bihar, Bengal, Delhi, Kabul, Lahore, Multan, Malwa, Bairar,
'Earlier, the person administering the region was called Suba and the revenue collector, Dewan. One who controlled the army was called Faujdar. 2For all his life, he helped the poor. So all the capital he had, was spent on them. He gave trouble to none. Whatever was saved, that he bestowed upon me while dying. With himself Birbal kept nothing.

Khandesh, Ahmednagar, Bidar, Haidrabad and Bijapur. The celebrated poet of Ramayan, Tulsi Das, lived during Akbar's time and the famous musicologist and singer Tansen also adorned his court. Akbar died on 16 October, 1605 (Sammat 1663). The beautiful sepulchre ofthis gracious emperor is situated at Sikandara near Agra. jO(aa'a'i!

once thought that bands of Sikh sadhus often experienced great difficulty in finding residence and food dliring fairs at pilgrimage centres. To tackle this problem, he approached Nanak Chand, the paternal uncle of Chandu LaI, a minister of the Nizam of Hyderabad, who offered seven lacs of rupees. With the money thus offered, Sant Pritam Das approached the Udasi saints of Paryag and suggested the establishment oftheir separate Akhara where they could stay away from the sanyasis and preach Sikhism in different parts of the country. Accordingly the Panchayati Akhara was established in Sammat 1836. A committee of four sadhus, Ganga Ram, Kutsath Braham, Sarup Braham and Atal Braham, was constituted under the guidance of Guru Granth Sahib. They made arrangements to procure tents, canopies, durries, carpets, horses, camels, bullock carts, kitchen utensils, musical instruments, walking staffs and umbrellas and framed rules and injunctions so as not to leave any lacunae in their smooth management. The headquarters of the Udasi Akharha are at Allahabad with numerous buildings at Kankhal, Kashi etc. (b) In Sammat 1896, some differences arose, and Sadhu Santokh Das, Hari Narayan Das, Sur Das etc. of Sangat Sahib (Bhai Pheru) established a separate Akhara, Sri Guru Naya Akhara, commonly known as Udasian da Chhota Akhara. Its headquarters are at Kankhal and it has buildings at other centres ofpilgrimage. Its administration is sound like that of Panchayati Akhara. I
ISantokh Das's Akhara was established in Amritsar in Sammat 1838, and Sangal wala Akhara was set up in Sammat 1843 and Nirvansar in Sammat 1850. So named, they are only cloisters of sadhus unlike Panchayati and Chhota Akharas.

(c) Like the Udasis, Nirmala saints, finding their sadhus humiliated at pilgrimage centres also thought of having their separate Akhara. They were inspired to do so by saints like Bhai Tota Singh, Ram Singh, Matab Singh etc., Maharaja Narendar Singh of Patiala, Maharaja Bharpur Singh of Nabha and Maharaja Sarup Singh of Jind, in Sammat 1918 established Dharam Dhuja Akhara of Nirmala saints. Bhai Matab Singh was appointed its first Mahant (chiefpriest).Grants in cash of Rs. eighty, sixteen and twenty thousand respectively were given by Patiala, Nabha and Jind states. Annual grants of Rs. 4000, 575 and 1300 were donated by those states in the same order. Jointly all the three states 2 drew up Dasturulamal (rules of action or constitution) for Akhara Nirmala Panth of Guru Gobind Singh. 3 Its constitution carried these clauses: I) Shri Mahant will be appointed in consultation with the three states and four other mahants, all wearers of Sikh symbols (underwear shorts, kirpan, hair-comb, steelbangle) shall be appointed in consultation with Chief Mahant. 2) The cooks in the kitchen shall also observe the same code of conduct. 3) Two workers, two storeki;pers, one granthi and one gyani (scholar knowledgeable enough as to interpret the scriptural texts), all observing the same code of dress, shall be appointed, besides one or two orderlies. 4) This code is not compulsory for the present ChiefMahant. Those appointed in the future shall have to be intell igent, ascetical and observers of the code of conduct and dress.
'Patiala, Nabha, .lind. Yrhis Dasturalamal was approved on 12 August 1862.

5) Whenever Shri Mahant visits the capital of a state, or whenever a chief finds time to visit the Akhara, he shall give offerings to Guru Granth Sahib or to Shri Mahant, but not individuaHy to other priests. 6)AH income ofthis sort will be accounted for. If any priest brings anything from anywhere, that too he shall deposit in the Akhara without keeping anything with himself. 7) At his discretion, Chief Mahant may offer to a brahman or an invalid, clothes or cash for visiting places of pilgrimage, but the details of all such offerings shall be maintained in writing. 8) If Dharam Dhuja Akhara Guru Gobind Singh wants to have a bhandara (free distribution of food), it shaH be done in consultation with and approval of eh ief Mahant. If at any time this is not possible, food may be offered but Chief Mahant must be informed of it as early as possible. 9) Ifthe need arises to appoint a new priest, it must be obligatory for him to swear before Guru Granth Sahib that he shall observe the code of conduct and deposit all income from all sources with the Akhara. 10) It shall be essential for Chief Mahant and his colleagues to ensure that if any Sikh fiefholder or chief wants to organise a free meal (bhandara), he shall be allowed to do so according to his own faith and belief, and the mahants shall not interfere in any way and shaH be considerate so as to respect the donor's sense of honour. 11) Similarly,if any other Sikh follower ofthe sect desires to conduct a free meal, the foregoing clause shall be observed. If it is found that though a person of means wilfully shows inability to do so, a report can be lodged

with the respective state and his money confiscated and deposited with the Akhara. 12) If during a journey there is a gurdwara, the Akhara must not bypass it. An offering is to be paid according to the status of the gurdwara concerned. 13) Seating arrangements should be in this order: Guru Granth Sahib in the centre, on the right of it ChiefMahant followed by other mahants, nd saintly Sikhs respectively, on the left the gyani, the interpreter of sacred text, and behind him other holy Sikhs. Other persons, however holy, shall sit at their respective places. In this, rank and not scholarship shall be the criteria .If a mahant of some other sect comes, he shall be seated on the left of the gyani. A seat on the right side, if given, should be behind (Nirmala) mahants of the concerned Akhara. 14) No other holy man shall stay in Chief Mahant's house, though a few holy men detailed to serve him may do so. Similarly no one is aHowed to sleep in the room reserved for keeping Guru Granth Sahib, because to do so amounts to disrespect. IS) Any Sikh, ascetic or householder, who comes to pay obeisance, may do so. There is no restriction. He should be seated according to his respectiv,e: status. 16) It is obliigatory for Shri Mahant and other mahants not go to the house of any state official. If need be, they may send a worker, store-holder, some orderly or any other mahant ofthe dera. Ifinvited for a meal however, they may go. 17) It is obligatory for the Sikhs of the Akhara that if a mahant asks them for any service, they should not avoid rendering it on one pretext or the other; if they avoid doing so, they shall be liable to a fine as decided by

Page 128 of 674

92 a mahant of the Akhara. 18) If any ascetical Sikh wants to stay in the dera, he shall first have to declare with his hand on Guru Granth Sahib that he shall return to the gurdwara everything offered and shall not retain anything with him, and that he shall remain loyal to the Sangat (congregation). Without such a pledge, he shall not be admitted. 19) The mahant must take parsad prepared and served only by the baptised Sikhs. Even water used in the kitchen must be such as is drawn (from the well) by the Sikhs. 20) There is no restriction on serving meals to other Sikh holy men; food must be served to all, care be taken that those observing rahit sit in a separate row. 21) Women shall never be allowed to enter the Akhara. This restriction also applies to liquor but not to opium and cannabis. 22) If anyone not observing rahit or belonging to a non-Sikh community, wants to offer parsad or a meal, he should not be refused, provided he gives uncooked ration for cooking by those in the Akhara. 23) The income accruing to the amount which has been put to the credit of the Akhara in the beginning, from lending or through other investments, shall be used for maintaining the community kitchen and for conducting other repairs; the initial grant must remain intact. 24) Financial management of the Akhara wi II be entrusted to three mahants, one belonging to each contributing state. They shall try to increase income by lending money on interest and investing in commerce, and shall spend it in accordance with rule 23. They shall inspect the accounts at least once in a year, and forward them to Shri Mahant for further inspection. 25) If he wants to appoint anyone in his own place, during his life, ChiefMahant shall be allowed to do so in consultation with the Akharas of the three states. 26) IfChiefMahant has already appointed his replacement during his tenure, or ifhe has not performed satisfactory work during his tenure, the three states through mutual consultation may remove him from the post. 27) If any mahant violates the code of cond uct, the three governments, through mutual deliberation, shall have the right to remove him. 28) Prior commitment will be taken from each of the five mahants that they shall not do anything against the Dasturulamal. Whenever the thr<>e states write anything to the mahants, its copies in Gurmukhi script shall be provided for safe keeping and also duly stamped and sealed with date to be kept in the office files. 29) It shall be obligatory for the Sikhs of the Akhara to keep in reserve one turban of vermillion colour and the rest of white colour. This is a traditional custom, symbolising the renunciation of family life. 30) Instead of a tiibi (mendicant's bowls of hollowed guard shell) and cIppi (oval begging bowls) the mahants shall keep steel karmaqal (mendicant's bowl with the top handle) or metallic vessel (container for keeping drinking water), because tiibi and cIppi are unclean and cannot be cleaned with earth (or sand). rt1:r [akhI] Skt})ffu n an eye. ~ [akhIU], ~ [akhIO] See nJWjf. 2 said, uttered, "akhar nanak akhIo apI."-var majh m 1. ~ [aklnan] See fl1::IJlTO. ~ [dkhIIU], nrf'trf'E"E [dkhIIO] See nJWjf

[agasat], ~ [agast] Skt nrarft:r and a celebrated sage who lived in the Vindaya mountain. He composed several hymns of Rig Ved wherein it is held that Agastya was the son of Mitravarun I At the sight of Urvashi he ejaculated his semen, a part of which fell in a pot from which Agastya was born; from the portion that fell outside the pot was born Vashishth. That is why Sayan has held that Agast came out of a pot like an elegant male fish, So he was called Kalshisut (son of a pitcher), Kumbh Sambhav and Ghatodbhav, etc. Due to such a birth, he is also called Maitravaruni or Aurvashey as well. At the time of birth, he was of the size of an extended hand. Once Kalkey demons spread terror in the world, killing holy saints and spoiling religious oblations. When the gods went to kill them, they hid themselves in the ocean. Paying heed to the request of the gods, Agastya drank the entire sea in one draught and the gods succeeded in destroying the demons. For this reason Agastya came to be known as Pitabadhi and Samuderchuluk as well. In the Purans it is recorded that Agastya was the son of Pulasaty. There is a story in the Ramayan that when Agastya saw his ancestors hanging upside down in a pit, they told him that they could be liberated only if he produced a son. Gathering parts of several animals, Agastya formed a girl whom he sent to the ruler ofVidarbh where she was brought up like a princess. When she grew up, Agastya married her. She was named Lopamudra. The Ramayan gives further account ofAgastya that for a long time he observed austerities at Kunjar Hill south of Vindhayachal. The

1235 AD. It is called Khwaja Sahib di Dargah. In history books a wonderful story is related about it. In the course of an expedition, attendants of the Dargah used to unstring the bows of the commanders and keep them in the mausoleum for the night. The foillowing morning he, whose bow was found duly strung, was considered one chosen by God to lead the expedition and become the ruler. Per the custom, when Darashakoh's bow was found strung, Aurangzeb after being enthroned, got the whole matter examined and discovered that there was a tunnel connecting the room where bows were placed with the house of the priest who used to string one of the bows during the night.

l)fQH

(a) When a sound repeatedly appears in the middle or beginning of words, it is called chekanupras. Examples: gavE ko vldya vlkham vicaru.-jCJpu. kUCIl karupI kunarr kulakhni prrka sahaju na janla.-sar ill 1. chatrdhari chatripatr chElrup chltrnath, chonikar chayabar chatripatI gaiE.-gyan. parampurakh parmesur svami pavan paun ahari-hazare 10. chalrupi chEli sada chaki rahrt chltI mahr achal chalat chltI patIn ko chali km te jahf ? -CCJrltr 70. (b) If the same sound appears repeatedly at the end of words in the same line or stanza, it is called vrrtyanupras: Example: darsan parsan sarsan harsan ragI ragi kartari re.-asa ill 5. namu dhlai sada sakhai sahaj subhai govfda, gd1).It mltai cuki dhai kade na vlapE mancfda. -asa chat ill 5. nam kam blhin pekhat dham hu nahr jahr. -japU. kahu devtan ke dIvan me vrrajman, kahu danvan ko gumanmatI det ho.-CJkal. kahu ko tanEya hE na mEya jake bhEya kou, choni hu ke chEya choQ kas6 pritI laiE.-gyan. (c) Sounds articulated at the same place (dental, labial part of body) appearing in the same line constitute ~rutyanupras. Example: trthE ghariE sura srdha ki sudhr.-jCJpu. In this line t, th, s, dh, are all dental. (d) The same words carrying different meanings according to their position in a line they figure in, form latanupras. Example: gavE ko tal)u hOVE kISE tal)u.-jCJpu.

A celebrated personality among western philosophers, son of Ariston and Priksoene, he was born in the capital Athens in 428 BC. His real name was Aristocles but because of his broad chest and forehead he came to be known as Platon. Ancient historian Olympudorus writes that while his parents took him to l\.1ount Himatus to obtain the blessings of gods, honey bees put honey to the infant's lips which earned him the adjective Athl:::nswi (a large black bee), and poets concluded that his tongue spoke words sweeter than honey. Plato became master of poetics early in his life. One day while passing through a narrow lane, he came across the great sage Socrates whom he had not met earlier. Socrates barred Plato's path with his stiek and

said. 'Blessed boy, please let me know the way to the school of goodness.' Held in ecstatic awe by Socrates' words, Plato said, 'I do not know, sir.' Pointing towards him Socrates said to his companions, 'This is the swan ~ho in my dream last night sat on my breast and then flew away!' Plato was twenty years old then. He was so charmed by Socrates that he, considering the latter's company as a path to emancipation, decided to spend the rest of his life at Socrates' feet and be educated by him. After the death of Socrates, Plato roamed about far and wide and then, around 388 BC, he settled down at the world famous Academy Garden and for 40 years concentrated on philosophic questions, and explained them to his associates and pupils who belonged to both the sexes. They became so famous for their truthfulness that whenever called to the comi for evidence, they were not formally sworn to speak the truth. Plato wrote many celebrated treatises which, fortunately for the scholars, still survive. Easy and correct translations ofthese treatises have been done in various languages of the West for readers not only of Europe and America but also of India. The Indians respectfully admit that Plato born in Europe was a saint-philosopher of the calibre ofVed Vyas. To call this philosopher a metaphysician and a paragon of education and knowledge would not be an exaggeration. That is why Emerson writes that Plato is philosophy and philosophy is Plato. . Many principles ofPlato are in accordance with the Sikh tenets, even his idea about keeping full-grown hair accord with what was ordained by Guru Gobind Singh (see his book Timaeus and his statue). On this topic, the

Sikh scholar DharamAnant Singh has written a book of over 300 pages entitled 'Plato and the True Enlightener of the Soul'. He wrote this book after consulting Plato's writings in the original Greek. It was published in London by Luzac and Co. in 1912 AD. Plato died on his birthday in 348 BC when he was exactly 81 years old. Some scholars hold that even at the time of his death, he was busy writing. The influence of Plato's wisdom and knowledge on people's mind is so deep that while praising any person for his wisdom, he is called aphlatun (Plato). 2 xa a quilt, a ragged mattress. ~ [afav] A ;t n a pardon, forgiveness.

The Muslims believe in 70 abdals out of which 40 are in Syria and 30 in other places. Some writers accept only 40 abdals and they believe that the world is intact because of them. When one of them dies, God appoints some other holy person in his place. Thus they go on changing and hence their designation abdal persists. Prominent abdals are called Gaus. Abdal is a plural of bdddl (change) "marphdtI ffidnu marhu dbdala."-maru solhe m 5. To transfigure concepts with spiritual exercise is essential for attaining the status of an abdal. In this verse-line abdal has a double meaning; those who kill the fickle mind are also abdals. 3 Abdal is one of the five ofMuslim holymen:

[aradhsIra] Skt ~~. A ;J? Hemicrania (headache in half the head) Its causes are : eating meals without vegetable dishes; eating before digesting the earlier meal; taking too much ice and liquor; excessive copulation, carrying heavy load on

the head, excessive menstrual discharge. Its symptoms are headache in half the head, severe headache, excessive palpitation of the heart, weakening of eyesight, and heaviness in the eyes. Its treatment comprises: (I) Opium and gum of acacia tree should be rubbed into a paste which should be plastered over the temples and the aching half of the head. (2) About one ratti of saffron should be roasted in purified butter and rubbed on the aching part. (3) Purified butter and raw sugar mixed in warm milk should be taken. (4) One should drink castor oil mixed in hot milk. (5) Grains of rice which ripen in 60 days should be soaked and when dry should be finely ground and taken as snuff. (6) Oil of costus species, warmed in hot water, should be applied as paste. (7) Chebiolic myrobalan, buleric myrobalan, emblic myrobalan, wormwood and bark of margosa tree should be combined and thoroughly boiled in water with raw sugar mixed in it and taken as a drink. (8) One should eat ten leaves of basil with hot milk. (9) One should daub emblica ribes and black sesame seeds ground in water. (10) One should drink water of raw coconut. Ifhemicrania pain starts after sunrise, and increases as the sun goes up, but stops at sunset, it is called suryavarat. To cure this, two rattis of quinine and the same amount of burnt alum be ground together finely and taken with water at day-break, thrice after every two hours.

Jivatma or spiritual essence is one, as the reflection of the sun in thousands of pots is one, similarly spiritual essence (atma) in different bodies is one and is not separable from the supreme Soul, the sachchidanand (truth, consciousness and joy) or from timespace continuum. Individual soul is not different or separate from Brahm; it only appears so because of the different names given to it. Reflection of Brahm in Maya (physical nature), abode of Maya in conscious beings, and Maya - these three together constitute Ishvar or God. If Maya and abode of Maya are taken away, what remains is pure Brahm. The atheists c.onsider the soul also

According to Giani Sampuran Singh, a senior aged priest of Kesgarh Sahib, this weapon was given by the Caliph Muhammad IV of Rome to Aurangzeb along with a ceremonial gown but Bahadur Shah presented it to Guru Gobind Singh. From the inscription, it seems unlikely that a Caliph would have given it to a king belonging to Sunni faction oflslam. The author's father Baba Narayan Singh used to tell that this weapon was presented to Guru Gobind Singh by Pir Budhu Shah ofSadhaura.

'They came in the year seventy eight and shall depart in ninety seven by which time another disciple ofa brave man shall also arise.' It means that in Saidpur (Eminabad) Mughals would enter in Sammat 1578 to destroy the vainglorious Afghans but they shall depart in Sammat 1597 when another brave man will arise from the Afghans themselves and will drive them away. Babar invaded India five times. It was during his third invasion in Sammat 1578 that he killed the conceited Afghans of Saidpur (Eminabad), and it was in Sammat 1597 that Babur's son Humayun was defeated by Sher Shah Suri at Kanauj and he fled from India. The word' also' with other brave man suggests

that the conquered Afghans would also rise again. Thus Sher Shah rose and won the throne of Delhi. Some scholars extend this prolepsis from the sixteenth to the twentieth century Bikrami and imagine Guru Gobind Singh, Banda Bahadur etc. as the 'Marad ka Chela', but this is their mistake because the Guru uses only yearly and not the centurial figure. He is talking of the then current sixteenth century only.

Indians have believed in metempsychosis or transmingration of souls since ancient times. According to the Greek historian Herodotus (11,53,81, 123) ancient Egyptians also believed in transmigration. Greek metaphysicians too have been preaching this view. Modern theosophists think that ancient Jews, Christians, Muslims and others also be,lieved in it in some form or the other. Now only those people accept transmigration whose religious leaders were once related to ancient Indians or those who still have respect for archaic beliefs. Buddhists, Jains, Hindus, Sikhs and neotheosophists all accept this philosophy. Scholars ofthe modern times have divided this view-point into three branches: (a) When a child is born, God does not invent a new soul for it; an already existing soul in the bodiless form assumes this new body for the first time and will never adopt a body in future. This theory is called the doctrine of pre-existence. (b) The soul has already been roaming in millions of men, animals, trees, etc. and after

quitting the present body too, it will roam as born in different bodies. This is what is known as metempsychosis or transmigration of soul. (c) Human soul before coming in the present bodily form has been living as man or woman, but not as animal, bird or tree etc. and after the present life it will be born again and again in human form until its redemption from the cycle of birth and death. This is the theory of re-incarnation. ~ [avaj] P jl,1' n a sound, a word. 2 a call, cry. 3 See ~ ~. ~ ~ [avaj lEI).i] Taking order from Guru Granth Sahib, in the following form.

brother Murad who was an aspirant 1to the throne that he did not want the kingdom; and that after killing Dara with his help, he would put the crown on his head, and leave for Mecca. Unfortunately Murad was thus deluded by Aurangzeb's plan, and along with the later he defeated Dara at Fatehabad near Agra. After his victory, Aurangzeb held a grand party during which he made Murad drink heavily and put him in prison at Gwalior. Three years later, he accused him of the murder of a Saiyad and had him killed. Thus having members of his family imprisoned and murdered, Aurangzeb assumed the title ofAlamgir (possessor ofthe world). His full name was Abu al Muzaffar Muhaiyuddin Muhammad with the title Alamgir added to it." This staunch folllower of the Sunni creed of Islam was a highly learned, sagacious, industrious person, expert in the art of governance. His dress and food were very simple, and he did not take liquor or any other intoxicant, and spent very little money on his personal neeas. During leisure he made caps and prepared copies ofthe holy Quran, did not consider Islam and Hinduism as equal, and did not hesitate to commit deliberate acts of grave injustice. He was extremely glad to have the title ofMuhiuddin c{.J\t (animator of religion) from his correligionists. He ordered the closure of Hindu fairs, temple functions and Vedic schools, and having demolished famous Hindu temples at Mathura, Benaras, etc. he got mosques built in their place" He reimposed Jazia (a tax) on the Hindus which had been stopped by Akbar. With the reimposition of !azia and other taxes and the persecution of HJindus, all Rajput whom Akbar had befriended became

hostile to him. In this connection a letter which Raja Raj Singh wrote to Aurangzeb in 1680 AD as quoted by colonel Tod in his book "Rajasthan" is worthy of note: "Your elders had fostered Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Christians, as also the atheists with equal care, but during your reign many have become homeless and have left the country. There is virtually a doomsday all around, people are dying of hunger; your subjects, trampled under the feet of soldiers, are crying; traders are beating their breasts. How can the rule ofan emperor who demands tax from such suffering subjects, remain stable? If you have faith in your own sacred book you will see that God is common to all and is not only of the Muslims. He is worshipped in the mosques but his gongs are also struck in the temples. When we spoil the picture painted by an artist, we without doubt are displeasing him. Similarly, one who spoils the work of God becomes liable to His displeasure. The tax which you demand from the poor Hindus is unfair because they do not have the means to pay. But ifyou must impose Jazia, ask me and Maharaja Ram Singh to pay. By kiHing minor flies you are stigmatising your greatness." This emperor was a staunch enemy ofmusic and considered it against the teachings of Islam. Therefore all the royal musicians were dismissed. Once, all the musicians of Delhi created a great clamour while following a hearse passing in front of the emperor palace. On enquiring the emperor was told that music had died during his rule and the people were going to bury it. Aurangzeb told them to bury it so deep that it may not come out again. It was Aurangzeb's oppression and tyranny which made Shivaji his enemy, and the

Marathas began uprooting the Mugal rule. By assassinating Guru Teg Bahadur, he sowed seeds of enmity in the hearts of all the Sikhs, the consequences of which had to be faced by his succesors. Guru Gobind Singh sent him Zafarnama, which contained some pieces of sane advice. At the time of his death, Aurangzeb repented over his actions. He wrote to his son: "I brought nothing butdemerits with me when I came, and 1 am now going with bundles of sins. 1have committed horrendous errors and 1 do not know what punishment shall be meted out to me. 1am seriously worried about my salvation". Having ruled for fifty years, Alamgir died, at the age of 90 years and 17 days', at Ahmadnagar in the South, on 21 February 1707 (Sammat 1763), and was buried in a mausoleum near Daulatabad. Aurangzeb had five sons (Sultan Muhammad, Bahadur Shah, Azam Shah, Muhammad Akbar and Kam Bakhash) and four daughters (Zebunnisa, Jinnutnisa, Badrunnisa and Miharunnisa).

He was the son of Pheru Mal Khatri and Daya Kaur of village Matte di Sarai (district Firozpur). He was named Lahina. He was married in Sammat 1576 to Khivi, daughter of Devi Chand Khatri of village Sanghar, the ruins of which are near Khadur. Two sons, Dasu and Datu, and two daughters, Amaro and Anokhi, were born to them. Initially Bhai Lahina, like his father, was a devotee of goddess Durga, and used to visit Vaishnav Devi every year as the head of the

devotees. During Sammat 1589, while going to Vaishnav Devi (Javalamukhi according to Nanak Prakash) he met Guru Nanak Dev at Kartarpur, and, forsaking the worship of the goddess, he became a disciple of the Guru only, who, pleased with his devotion and service, renamed him Angad and made him his successor on 17 Harh Sammat 1596. He started functioning as the Guru from 23 Assu 1596, and preached the doctrine of Nanak Dev with rare efficiency. In Sammat 1598, he began Propagating knowledge in Gurumukhi script without any discrimination of caste. He got the biography of Guru Nanak Dev written in Sammat 1601 of which a distorted version is now known as Bhai Bale wali Janamsakhi. After having functioned as Guru for 12 years 9 months and 17 days, he breathed his last at Khadur on 3 Baisakh (Chet Sudi 4) Sammat 1609 (29 March 1552 AD) at the age of 47 years, 11 months and 29 days. liaro ragan] See~. 2 short form for l?foror. woman.

It is caused by head injury, brain tumour syphilitic boil, excessive copulation, diseased eyelids, studying in dim light, . headache with pain in eyeballs, taking too much liquor or smoking, and sudden stoppage of menses in women etc. Its treatment should be had from an efficient physician or doctor who after exhaustive t~sting may properly treat the patient. A patient of amaurosis should take rich invigorating food and should completely abstain from copulation .The following medicine is very good for a patient suffering from eye-diseases: melt one tola of pure lead, mix it with one tola of mercury while it is hot; then take blue glass, oxide of zinc, cardamom, parched borax, mother of pearl, stone of Basra, caltha patustri, dosel, cold sugar and camphor all one tola each, white antimony four tolas, black antimony ten tolas, raw opium three masas. All those

things should be finely ground and dissolved in one bottle of rose water. Two chhatanks juice of margossa leaves, two chhatanks of bould myrobalan, bellax myrobalan and embile myrobalan, one chhatanks extract of root of amonum anthorhiyam or berberis aristate, be mixed and ground fine like collyrium and put in a blue bottle. By putting this in the eyes with a needle, diseases of the eyes are cured. But care should be taken to ensure that the needle, used by one person is not used by others without thoroughly cleaning it. Medicines prescribed for green cataract are also useful for this disease which also has two more forms; one blind by day but able to see during the night; and two vice versa that is blind during the night but not so during the day. This disease is cured by putting drops of the liquid of the shell of Bellorica myrobalan in the eyes and eating bread of wheat flour with fresh ghee poured on it while it is still hot. This is to be taken for seven days. Daily licking of the powder of the three myrobalans mixed with half tola of ghee of cow's milk is also useful. Seeds of Kulpha (patulaca olerecca) three masas, coriander seeds three masas, ground and mixed with mucilage of the seeds, quince fruit three masas is also beneficial. White sandalwood rubbed in rose water should be rubbed on the forehead.

lIn Bhagvat Ambarish is mentioned as son of Nabhag, See chapter 9, item 4-5, Mahabharat also confirms Bhagavat.

Vishnu's Sudarshan Chakar chased sage Durvasa whose story is as follows: On 12th ofKartik, king Ambrik was ready to break his fast on the eleventh day, when sage Durvasa arrived. The king invited him also to eat but th,e latter said that he would first take a bath. The king waited a long while but Durvasa did not return. On the advice of his priest, the king then broke his fast. Durvasa on return got very angry. He pulled a tuft of his hair with which he created a smart person who started beating the king. Vishnu sent his Sudarshan Chakar to protect the king which killed the smart person and chased Durvasa who ran for his liife but did not receive any refuge in the world. Tired at last, he sought refuge with Ambrik himself who saved him from the Sudarshan Chakar. 2 Another story in Ling Puran is that Narad and sage Parvat, on seeing the beauty of Sundari, Ambarik"s daughter, fell in love with her and approached the king for her hand. The king replied that he would marry his daughter to a person of her liking. Both of them then went separately to Vishnu, each asking the god to turn the other into a monkey so that the princess might not marry him. The god granted their request. So both of them became monkey-faced and neither could get the princess. They cursed-Ambrik that he would remain enveloped in darkness. Vishnu in order to protect his devotee Ambrik shot his Sudarshan Chakar which produced light like that of the sun and dispelled darkness. It then chased the two sages, Narad and Parvat, who sought forgiveness from Ambrik, which was granted. It was only then that they found peace. "abrik kau dio abhE pad."-maru namdev.

His first wife Sarah was childless. Abraham then married a slave girl Hagar who gave birth to a son Ismail. After some time Sarah also gave birth to a son; then both women, each having a son, began to quarrel. On Sarah's instigation Abraham expelled Hagar and her son Ismail, See m-r m-r. Jews and Christians trace their origin to Is-haq; and Ismail's descendants are the Quraish dynas~y in which prophet Muhammad was born. The ceremony of (circumcision) was introduced by Abraham. No religious book mentions its existence before him. Jews and Muslims considering this as God's order given through Abraham, accept and practise it. In ancient times, Christians also used to practise circumcision. Christ himself was circumcised. Even now Christians in Asbyssinia practise it. When Abraham got his own circumcision done and preached it among his own people, he was 99 years old. The Quran defines Abraham as God's friend. His total age was 175 years. His grave at Hebron in Palestine is a place of pilgrimmage. A verse from Kabir's composition reads: "sakatI saneh karI sOnatI kariE, mE na badauga bhai!"l This refers to a story which although nowhere mentioned in the Bible or the Quran, has its roots in a legend that Sarah made Abraham promise on pain of strict punishment to have no sexual contact with Hagar. But he was found to have had intercourse with Hagar once. Sarah however reduced the punishment out of love for her husband. Instead of severing his point of contact with the other woman, made him circumcise his organ of contact and to trim his moustaches, and also made him expel

in 1612 for increased business, a factory was set up in' 1613. Then in 1634, orders from Shahjahan to open two workshops in Bengal were procured. In 1668 the company got Bombay from Charles II which the king had received from Portugal as a part of dowry. During the reign of James II, in 1690 admiral Nicholson was called by the company with a fleet of 12 warships, 200 guns and 600 soldiers to protect its territorial and other interests. Gradually the company increased its military strength. It purchased Calcutta and several other towns in 1698 and established Fort William. In 1757 Clive defeated Bengal's Subeclar Nawab Sirajudaula and o~cupied a large part of his kingdom. In this way the British also extended their hegemony to other parts of the country. In 1772, the British Parliament decided to exercise its control on the company's political activities.

Accordingly, Christ was born in 57 Bikrami. Among the Christians, he is known as the son of God. According to the Quran, at the time of his birth, people of the tribe asked Mary how she a virgin gave birth to a child in Bathlehem. Mary pointed to the infant and told them that they could ask the child itself. At this the child asserted his coming from God and removed people's suspicion (See Quran, 'IJdO 1-ffum.r (lines 27-31). According to the Jews, Christ underwent circumcision and received baptism from John. He started preaching at the age of 30 and made many disciples of whom twelve are regarded as his primary followers. He roamed about in many cities and villages preaching the new religion and showing miracles, but because his teachings were contrary to the current usage and rituals, opposition to him grew among the Jews who, especially the chief priest of Jerusalem, became hostile towards him. Finding him an impediment to his own position, he became Christ's chief enemy and alleged that Jesus called himself the son of God and spread unrest among the people. So Jesus was dragged to the court of the Pilate. Knowing full well that Jesus was innocent, the Pilate sentenced him to be produced before king Herod who ordered Jesus to be put on the Cross. Accordingly, Jesus was nailed in hands and feet to the Cross (t)and was thus killed. The grave of this great soul is in Jerusalem. He was hardly 33 years old at the time of his death. The Bible also tells that Lord Christ became alive after death; his body disappeared from the grave and he was seen by several persons after that. The symbol of the cross hung in Churches and worn by the devout around their neck,

In fact in fixing the Christian Calendar a mistake offour years and 6 days has been made but this correction has not been inserted to avoid confusion. The use of this Calendar started in 532 AD.

have done a great injustice to the original meaning of the words. Keeping in view the interest of the readers, very obtuse terms are explained in this dictionary in the alphabetical order, yet it seems proper that a key to Sastarnammala be provided so as to remove opaqueness and explain the rules, according to which names of the weapons are conceived. (a) CSOT is mentioned as ~ (~-~::r). The reader should note that when such t,;:rms as ElR, ER, l.ffu' etc. are added to synonyms for ~ such as~, FIiJI3', FfRra", ~ etc., then such coinages stand for 1:1;:1c/T. Another name for CSOT is ~, thus all synonyms of ~ such as ~, ~, ~mrr, fuw etc. when followed by ~ are treated asl:SOT. Similarly for ~, the term or't~ ffiJ is mentioned, so synonyms of~, like 0lO't'7i', '(")TiJ, cfu etc. when suffixed by nrfu, ~, rn etc should be taken to mean 'l::f3OT. The same holds true with regard to such names of1:f;3OT as R01W3', ~, 0('tJ i30(, ~, Cfffi-RrO(', ~, eJ?UT, l:fCIl})ffu, fl:roirfu etc. In the absence ofa proper explication some readers get misled. ffil13HT3' means }{rfEnfr and ~; 0('tJ i30( means a gun; ~ stands for Shiv; l:fCIl})ffu for a hawk; tliClJl?ffu means a lion etc. But it should be noted that traditional association is the basis for understanding of such synonyms ofCSOT. Similarly~fonreeft, ~ for 'g~, ~ for ft:rar, fufHiJ(JT for ~, ~ for l1fl(J, ;:rc.)M for ~ etc. should be understood accordingly. (b)"O(Gl"iJ is mentioned as ffi-{1:I"J, j:rHt!r;r, ~ l'>ffu etc. The reader should know that the word ~ when suffixed to i1H (J:ilH) and rfu or ~ when suffixed to i:rz means "O(Gl"iJ. (c) ~ is named H<JEtl, ~, B~'})fj"o,

nrfu, l1IZ3C\t3' nrfu etc. It should be clear to the reader that if'8'5'C nrfu is substituted with iitor ftnJor cgm nrfu with cg;:m ftnJ it is

nothing more than a jugglery of words, for the meaning remains essentially the same. For a proper grasp of names used in Sastarnammala, some knowledge of history is essential. In its absence, one cannot follow how Lachhman became unconscious and Ghatotkach got killed when assaulted with a '8"iJiiIT (spear) due to which ffiJEft was called ~ ftnJ and urZ3O.'tf ftnJ respectively. (d) To coin terms for trcg, the word ~ or ~ is suffixed to alI the names of Vishnu and Krishan, who destroyed their enemies by using this weapon: fuJ:rQ~, f'3H(')'':'JQ, ~, ~, (')d0('8d fuy etc. If the reader is fulIy conversant with all the names attributed to Krishan and Vishnu, then understanding the name for trcg will pose no problem. (e) Apart from the names for arrow mentioned in dictionaries, numerous other names such as !1Q'l:fdIFf, ~~, tlid'J"UT etc. have been coined. Obtuse words have been coined for an arrow assuming it to be skywandering as 'dFfi'fuJo tTd!!'d', J~QdtJd, meaning an arrow wandering in the sky that holds the moon. The names of the moon are really complex. In this regard, ~, ~ nrfulmf 3?i1if denote the moon, who is the son of the sea that abounds in fish and his enemy is Indar; Mainak mountain, whose bearer is the sea, whose son is the moon etc. The word 'f.I'Fq' when suffixed to all the names of Kam (a'lH) gives words for an arrow as - ~l:::fTl;if"Q', Hl('j&~i':'J"Q', ~ ~ etc. The term ~ is also added to the various names of l?fOtj?) to provide coinage for arrows, such as ~~, ~~, "Qi;:r.;r~ etc.

Karan, Krishan and Ravan were killed with arrows hence O(de i3Cl, ~, fC2lHn i3Cl, ~ n{?fffl1ffu also stand for arrows. Krishan was the charioteer ofArjun, hence to denote arrows ~ l1ffu 1J'3" rfu, ~ rfu 1J'3" rfu, ~ 3T3" 1J3fu, ':!! fQHf<:;d n{?ffflJ3fu etc. are the several names coined for the purpose. In view of the context in Sastarnammala, at many places words have to be introduced (l.ft!i" 'eT 1'iIOJIT"(JTdY, for clarifying the meanings as-"pntham judhIstar bhakh, badhu sabad pun bhakhie. jan hrIdE me rakh, sakal nam e ban ke."-168. Yudhishtir's brother is Arjun, but it does not connote much, therefore the term 'lJ3fu' should be introduced from outside, meaning arrow is the enemy of Arj un's 1J'3". Likewise while indicating the names of guns the text gives this detail: "prIthi sabad ko adI ucaro, ta: pache ja pad dE <;laro. nam tupMg jan hIy lijE, cahIyE jaM taM pad dijE."-721. At this place, the addition of ~ to ~ wi II provide the word for gun, as it is wood available on the earth that equips it with the butt. At times for the sake of clarity, parts of a sentence have to be properly connected as in "tImar ucar ha bhagal)I bakhano."-1006. As such it should be "tImarha ucar bhagal)I bakhano", i.e. the word sister should precede the term eliminator of darkness 2 etc. (f) for tj'T'f.f (noose), '!eiHg, 1jJ}f F.I"Rg" are conceived as dldl'illjcl'Hg, ~ ~ illjd'H~ that is Varun the god of Ganga and Krishan's beloved Yamuna; his weapon, the noose. nf~, df'i:!lj3IFii, ~ ~, etc. are employed to denote the noose. tj'T'f.f is also used for the army's enemy but the terms for the army are coined in a

spectacular manner through the addition of suffixes m-o't as '8tcJit, ~, ~, etc. The addition of l1ffu or l1ffuit at the end of these words gives various names for tj'T'f.f. Noose is also called ~. The reader should know that the addition of ~ to

etc. leads to the formation of names for tj'T'f.f (the noose). (g) Last of all are mentioned the names for ~or (the gun). There are numerous names assigned to it, again coined in an unusual manner, as FI'ffi1'Cjfo1, ~ ~ that is having a wooden butt. Another name for the gun is 'the enemy ofarmy' and with the addition of suffixes m-o't- numerous names come to be formed for the army as -~, (JEIO't, 'd"Elfo, ~,
~, ~, Frn7i9", ~, m, H<:rit, fl::n:f<TI, fQ1.lit, ~, '4Q7>'t, ~, etc. when fay ~, !fu ~ etc. are added at the end of the

aforesaid terms, they mean the gun. Another name for the gun is the enemy of the lion. In this context, following are the names been ascribed to the lion "adI taraganI sabad ucaro jankE, jacar kahI naIk pad bahuro thanh, satru ~abad ko take at ucariE, hoi sakal tupak ke nam sumItr vIcariE." -8]]. 'Grass grew because of the tarangani (the stream), the deer was its grazer whose hero was the lion and whose enemy was the gun'. Names ofthe streams are also not common. At some places, the stream demolishes the banks; at other places, it is the ripper of the mountains; still at other places it gets associated with the mythological names i.e. ~'d''!f3nifeCl fl:rw for Jamuna, 'fu:m J-fT3T for Ganga, ~R"i'ifo for Chandarbhaga etc.

Page 370 of 674

As the grass grows on the earth, so very intricate names are assigned to it liike "nIsnalkananI sunear patI arr." 'the bearer of Chandarbhaga-the earth, its produce is the grass anet the grazer of the grass is the deer, whose lord is the lion and its enemy is the gun. Assuming the earth to be the property of Kashyap the Prajapati, the names ascribed to the gun are the most difficult as "uee sravaIS es eSl)i ISl)i arl)i." It means 'The lord ofSrava (horse) is Indar and his lord is Kashyap, his property is the earth, and its master is the army whose enemy is the gun.' At places word ~ is coined by employing the term f'qtr four times as adI $abad mat;'}g bhal)ijE, car bar nrlp pad ko dijE, arl)i take at bakhano, sabh sri nam tupak ke jano.-1251. 'Lord ofmat;'}g (Airavat, the elephant)-Indar, his master Kashyap, his property, the earth, its protector, the royal army and its destroyer, the gun. If readers study Sastarnammala keeping the aforesaid rules in mind, they win find it easy to grasp the meanings. ~ [sastrani] n an armed force.-sClnama. ~ [sastrapatI], HH~d'H [sastraraj], ~re [sastrarat] n a lord of weapons the sword, srii sahib.-s<:mama.

There is a boulder here on which an edict of Ashoka is engraved. To the west of this town is located the famous mausoleum of Shershah Suri. Some persons have named this place as Sasranv and Sahasram.

Once it so happened that king Dushyant got infatuated with her in the jungle. They married with mutual consent and a son was born to them who was named Bharat. Along with Bharat dynasty, the country owes its name to him. Kalidas, the poet, penned a poetic narrative known as 'Shakuntla' with great elegance. In Dasam Granth, Shakuntla is shown as the wife of king Prithu. See 'f\r''aTtL "tahf nan sakOtal rup dhare.

is to the north of Asia, Europe and America and surrounds the North Pole. (e) That surrounding the South Pole is known as the Antartic 6 Ocean. If one considers this carefully, then there are only the northern and southern oceans, the other three are included in them. A part ofthe sea that encroaches upon land is known as 'bay' i.e. Bay of Bengal. The depth of the ocean is not uniform everywhere, but the maximum depth is th irty thousand feet. The tides of oceans greatly influence the climate. The water is less hot or cold according to the geographical degrees of latitude; it is icy cold near the Poles, but the quality of water is uniform everywhere. Scholars have identified nineteen different elements, in which salinity is predominant; the pressure of water in the sea increases by 7 ~ seer per square inch at the depth of every 33 feet. In this manner the pressure of water at a depth of 12000 feet would be 70 maunds per square inch. The light of the sun's rays can penetrate upto a depth of 330 feet, below which this penetration gradually decreases and there is complete darkness below 5580 feet. The waxing and waning ofthe moon has a lot of impact on the tildes. See ~. There has been enormous advancement in oceanography and sophisticated instruments can now measure accurately the depth of the sea, increase in salinity, the movement of the tides, temperature etc. The Purans have described seven oceans.

There is at the beginning of this granth Shri Mukhvaak Patshahi 10. Here is its exposition for the sake of the readers: First chapter - the eulogy of the devi and akal, seeking of refuge by the gods with the devi after losing to the demons, assuming the powers of other gods by the devi to fight and kill the demon, Bhimnad. Second chapter - committing of sati by Bhimnad's wife; preparations made for war by Bhimnad's brother; Brijnad (Veeryanad) to fight the gods; Indar writing missives to all the gods asking for help. Third chapter - attack by both sides; going ofVishnu to Brijnad as a messenger ofNarad; Brijnad's refusal for rapprochement and his determination to fight; the death of II commanders of Brijnad's army in the battle. Fourth chapter - waging of a terrible war;

Vishnu reviving the dead gods by giving them nectar; final triumph of the demon over the gods and imprisoning of lndar; Vishnu's rescue of Indar by cutting off his chains; Brijnad's victory and capture of Indarpmi. Fifth chapter -- the harassed d(lmi-gods petitioning God; assumption of the Sarbloh avtar by God, as in, "sarab ag bajrag he dharyo purakh asag he, sarabloh avtar."-ch5d 65; and the arrival of Sarbloh to see Brijnad as a messenger ofGanesh; ensuing ofa terrible war after clauses of the peace treaty are rejected; entry of the devi and other powers into the fray ofthe battle; Sarbloh hypnotizing all demi-gods and demons with his powers, except Brijnad; the eulogy by Brijnad of Sarbloh invoking him to appear again and fight him; Sarbloh assuming a horrific form and engaging in a battle; the beheading of Brijnad and the offering of his head to Shiv to raise a mountain of heads; presentation of robes of honour to all the demi-gods and bidding them adieu. This granth holds that this book is a gist of Shukr Bhashy, as in "te sabh kathe pnthak kar nIl1).ay sukrabhashI chad, sava lakh hE sakhya yaki vadat muni jian chad, tako sar kaQhkE bar!).a magalcara!). suchad, sava lakh chadan ko sara tn: sahasr ~,)t chaQ." It also holds that this was not a war between Sarbloh and Brijnad, but one between reason and passion, that is "nrrp bIbek abIbek senani bhat pradhan matri dhujni." In the Sarbloh, there are several ilTelevant articles on Sikhism, especially under headiings like "gurugadi pat~;ahi 10", "khalsa praka~" and "bakh$I$ hajUJr": "bhyo nIstar tras asuran te

tarlIkho guru jagat sabE, $ah gobfd phatah satIguru ki vahguru suclmatr akhE." ... "path khalsa bhayo punita prabhu agya kar udatI bhae, mItIO dVEt upadhi jag ki asur malechan mul gae, dharmi path khalsa pracuryo satyrup pUnJ:rup jaye, kacch kes krrpan trrmudra gurubhagta ramdas bhaye. akal-upasak chatridharma ra!). katI kas pardhan ae, ta mahI pac calis pradhana pacpradhan khalsa thae, sigh ajit jujhar phatahI sigh joravar sigh param prre, pacIm khaIIs satIguru pura jIn Ih path supathpragtae." ... "guru apnapJ khalse dina, dUtIy rup satIguru gurugratha, bolan satIguru sabad sabhakhan nam gobid kirtan satha, dvadas rup satIguru e kahiahI dvadas raVI pragtyo harrsata, das gobid phatah satIguru ki grath khalsa guru badatha." ... According to Pandit Tara Singh's research, Sarbloh is a work by Bhai Sukha Singh, who was a granthi at Patna Sahib. He has confessed that he got this granth, a work of Guru Gobind Singh, from an ascetic ofthe Udasi sect living in the jungle in Jagannath.. We are also not inclined to regard Sarbloh as the work of Guru Gobind Singh, because it mentions Roopdeep in Pingal language. Roopdeep was written in Sammat 1776, and the Guru had passed away in 1765; and if this granth precedes Amrit Sanskar then how could it have a chapter on the Khalsa and

Parshuram reached there while searching for them. The sages who gave shelter to these pregnant women of the Kshatri caste said that there was no Kshatriwoman in their hermitages and those women who resided there were all Brahmins. Parshuram then insisted that the sages must take unbaked bread-loaves made by them. The sages did so. The off-spring of these Kshatri-women were named as "Sarasvat". There is an ancient story. Once Dadhichi, a sage, was meditating. lndar sent a nymph 'Alambusha' to disrupt his meditation. On seeing such a charming fairy, the semen of the sage ejaculated into the river Sarswati, from which Sarasvat was born.

F.Il'l'J'}fIij' '8'af [i;lalamar bag] a garden with three terraces spread over eighty acres of land three miles north-east of Lahore, which was set up by emperor Shahjahan through his official Ali Mardan Khan in 1634. According to "Badshahnama" written by Mullah Abdul Hamid, the cost of this garden is estimated as rupees six lacs. Bernier writes that the expenses on this garden were about ten lac pounds. A channel from river Ravi was especially drawn from Madhopur Headworks to supply water to this garden under the guidance ofEngineer Ali Mardan Khan at a cost oftwo lacs rupees. In earlier books, the name of this garden is also found to be "Farah Bakhash". Shalamar is termed as a "house of bliss" by many writers. The word Shalamar is a combination ofmrm (Sanskrit) which means 'home' and .IL (Turkish) which means 'bliss'. According to Mohammad Latif, Maharaja Ranjit Singh named this garden as I:l'iJW8 i dl, which means 'garden of the beloved', as F.JTm?T means 'the beloved'. If we call this garden as ''}fro f.l'TW", it will not be out of context because "mar i;lala" has the meaning of 'house of Cupid' i.e. 'house of the god of love'. There is a big pond in the middle of the garden, with beautiful open houses on three sides of the pond, where people sit. In the

The special get-together parties are organised by the rich and the famous as also other civil servants at this place now. On the first terrace of the garden, there is a house built by Maharaja Ranj it Singh which has an underground vault.

He was born in Shivner fort (near Pune) in 1627 AD. His father was a fervent devotee of Shiva (Durga). Therefore, he named his son Shivaji. Shivaji was taught Hindu religion by his mother and a Brahmin named Ataleek Jado Ji. His mentor was Mahatma Samrath Ramdas, who inspired him to unify the Maratha community and protect their religion. Shivaji raised his power so much, that he was considered a king ofthe Maratha nation. He realized khIraj (tribute) from Bijapur and Golconda. Once, he recognized the suzerainity ofAurangzeb, but when he visited Delhi's royal court, he was maltreated. He felt upset but the emperor imprisoned him. However on the pretext of distributing food to the Brahmins ofMathura, he placed himself in a big basket of sweets and escaped. Thus he become a foe of the Mughal empire, and he always defied it. By wearing a royal crown, Shivaji arranged a big ceremonious assemblage in "Raigarh" in 1674 AD. This great warrior left for his heavenly abode on 5th April, 1680 after a brief illness. The sword ofShivaji was called Bhawani and he always kept it with him. This Maharaja was a patriot and religious devotee. It was his standing order that even during war nobody should harm the enemy's religious places, scriptures and women.

ItmW (Shivi) is also correct.

The king placed the pigeon on the weighing scale and put his own flesh on the other side. But the pigeon proved to be heavy. Ultimately, the Raja jumped upon the weighting scale. Then lndar and Agni disappeared from there happily.2 There is another mythological tale that Vishnu, disguised as a hungry Brahmin, came to the king. The king tried to serve him food. But the Brahmin told that he would eat only the meat of his son. The king did as desired. When the meat was ready, the Brahmin said, "You take it before me." When the king began to eat, Vishnu appeared there. He blessed the king and made his son Vrihadgarabh alive agam. fI:rfuorr [$IVIka] Skt n a comfortable vehicle, the palanquin.

It is mainly caused by germs of a particular type. They spread in the body and cause high fever and pimples to flare up. During the three-four days offever, pimples appear. Then they fill with water, which turns into pus. On the tenth or eleventh day the pimples wither and on the twentieth, their crusts also vanish away. It is contagious disease. The best cure of it is vaccination, cailled k(loda) in colloquial term. Children and the residents of hot countries get afflicted with small-pox. Generally a person suffers only once in his! her life, but sometimes it may recur, then its impact is less severe and has shorter duration than the first one. Small-pox causes many types of troubles such as uneasiness, burning, stiffness in the limbs and head ache etc. It is better to give a dose of $irXI$at (a unani medicine) rubbed in the squash of pIttpapra.

Then this material be crushed and with two tolas squash prepared from the blue lotus may be given to the patient to drink; it gives him relief from fever and boil burning.

she was named Sita. Janak and his wife Sunayna reared her like a daughter. Therefore she was called Janakja. On account of her birth from the earth, she came to be named Bhoomija and Ayonija.! Valmiki Ramayan Part 7, Ch 17 contains a story that saint Kushdhvaj's daughter Vedvati was performing penance to get Vishnu as her husband. Charmed by her beauty, Sumbh the king of demons, desired to get that virgin girl by killing Kushdhvaj, but he failed to do so. Then, Ravan had the desire to make Vedvati his wife. When she did not agree, Ravan dragged her by her hair. Vedvati got her hair, released and jumped into the fire. Afterwards she appeared as Sita to kill Ravan and got Vishnu's incarnation Ram as her husband. Sirdhvaj had pledged that whoever was able to shoot an arrow with the bow string of Shiv, he would marry Janki. Thus Ram not only succeeded in this endeavour, but broke the bow into two pieces by drawing it apart. Therefore, he got Sita as his bride. About this bow, it is said in Valmik Part 1, Ch 67 that after destroying Daksh's religious sacrificial ceremony Shiv kept this bow named Devrat in trust with Janak. It was so heavy that 5000 persons laboured to bring it near Ram. Sita remained with Ram Chandar during his exile and she left the homely comforts to serve her husband. When on a suggestion from Ram, Lachhman cut off the nose of Ravan 's

sister Soopnakha in Dandak forest, Ravan carried away Sita in revenge. With Sugreev to help, Ram came to know through Hanuman that Sita was in Lanka. Thereafter Ram waged a war against Ravan and got her back. When Sita was brought from Ashokvatika and she appeared before Ram, he said, "Sita! I am doubtful about your character, Therfore you may go away anywhere you like. You are not worthy of me." Due to this Sita jumped into the fire, but such was her chastity's strength, that the fire could not consume her. All the gods bore testimony to her chastity, and Ram accepted her (as his life partner) See ~ ~ 6. l?f: 17-18-19. After the coronation of Ram Chandar in Ayodhya, Sita lived in comfort with him and became pregnant. One day, a joker named Bhadr said to Ram, "People talk ill of you because Sita, who remained in Ravan 's abode, is now settled in your house by your sweet will." So Ram ordered Lachhman to take Sita away and leave her in the forest. Lachhman carried out his order obediently. Rishi Balmiki was moved on hearing Sita's cries and he escorted her to his hermitage. There Sita gave birth to male twins. Valmiki writes that for the protection ofone child Kusha grass was dipped in water (and sprinkled on the child's body) and thus he got the name Kush. The other child was sprinkled with Lav grass dipped in water and named Lav. Kush was elder to Lav. The sage looked after them and taught them. He trained them to learn Ramayan by heart and sing it in melody. When Ram performed an Ashvmedh Yag, the sage took Kush and Lav with him to Ayodhya to join the festival. Ram and his courtiers were charmed by the singing of the children. The sage certified the chastity of Sita and told Ram

Socrates was moved to preach against evil practices and hypocrisy prevalent in Greece. He actively condemned them, fearlessly sermonised to the people about truth. His discursive method was such that the scholars of his time could not argue with him. Thus selfish persons turned hostile and they levelled against Socrates the charge that he was the enemy of ancient religion and was a preacher of new belief. So he was imprisoned and ultimately on a court order was put to death by having to drink a cup of poison. Socrates believed that human soul was neither subject to old age nor death. The fear of death could not turn him away from his cherished principles. Therefore he remained absolutely firm. At the time of his death, whatever he discussed with his disciples, was

Jyanti reached there and tried her best to distract him with her charm, but Shukar fully completed his penance period and then married her. Shukra is also called Bhargava, Bhrigu's father. Shukar was a one-eyed demon and the reason for it is that king Bali promised to give two and a halffeet land to the dwarf(Vaman) Brahmin, so Shukar made his body very small and entered into the neck of the water vessel, called gangasagar. When water did not fall into his hand, Bali moved a straw in the neck that punctured his eye.' "sukr bat man rna pahIcani."-vam.:m. 5 Friday. 6 a bright planet, which is quite close to the earth.

The tale told in Aitreybrahaman is that king Harish Chandar had no issue. He vowed that if blessed with a child, he would offer him to Varun (god of water). He was blessed with a son who was named Rohit. As per the vow, the king wanted to sacrifice his son to Varun but his son did not agree and ran away, For six years, he lived in lthe forest where he met a poor Brahman, Aj igarat, who struck a deal with him, and purchased his son Shunehsheph by paying him hundred cows as the price to die in his place. 'larun too accepted this exchange. But at the time of

m?O.

sacrifice he saved his life by chanting hymns in Varun's praise and reached Vishvamitar's place. The Ramayan narrates this story differently. Ambrish, the king of Ayodhya was about to offer for sacrifice an animal when it was stolen away by Indar. The family priest ordained at that time that a substitute human sacrifice was imperative. After a long search, a Brahaman named Richik was found., whose younger son was Shunahsheph. With the willingness of his son, the seer sold off his son for one lakh cows, one crore gold coins and many more omaments. Shunahsheph's matemal uncle gave him two hymns in lndar's praise which were to be chanted at the time of immolation. He chanted the two hymns. Indar was very much pleased and blessed him with long life.

It gives out a pleasing smell; priests and deities like it. In Rigved many details are given. The Vedic sages used to consider it invigorating, curative, wealth giving and a guide for the deities. As a deity, it is one that possesses all the powers of somras. See ~. 2 Later the moon was named 'sam' and he was regarded as a deity of all medicinal plants. It is written in Purans that Sam, son of sage Atri was from the womb of Anusuya, but in this regard, everybody is not of the same opinion. At places, he is considered to be the son of Dharam and elsewhere of Prabhakar of Atri lineage. But, in Vrihdarnyak, he IS shown as belonging to the Kshatri caste. lie married 27 daughters of Daksh, but loved Rohini the most. As a result the others angri 11' complained to their father. Daksh wanted to mediate for a compromise between them but Sam did not agree. Then Daksh cursed his son-in-law that he would remain childless and become a patient of tuberculosis. On hearing this his wives took pity on him and they asked their father to pardon him. Daksh could not undo his curse but said that would, get feeble gradually. Because ofthis the moon waxes and wanes. Once Sam performed Rajsuy yag and in arrogance he took away Tara the wife of Vrihspati. Not to talk of her husband. Sam did not return her even on Brahma's asking. Thus there was a fight in which Saturn (who had an

enmity with Vrihspati) helped Sam and other demons also sided with him. Indar and the deities were with Vrihspati. So horribk was the battle that the whole earth shook. With his trident Shiv cut Sam into two pieces. Because of this he is also called 'Bhagnatma'. At the end, Brahma mediated and restored Tara to Vrihspati. From the semen of the moon a male child was born to Tara v'iho was named Budh, from whom started the Chandarvansh (moon dynasty) It is written in the Purans that Sam's chariot has three wheels and is pulled by ten jasmine-like white horses with five of them on one side and the other five on the other side. 3 nectar. 4 camphor. 5 heaven. 6 Shiv. 7 Kuber. 8 Yam. 9 the air. 10 water. 11 leftnostril whose deity is moon.

[sJ sakhi] It is a famous book having

one hundred tales, but now some more seem to have been interpolated therein.' And its hand-written copies do not have the same text. Some persons are of the view that this book of tales is a composition of Kalgidhar but the poor quality of its poetry shows that it is from the pen of a Sikh with little education and understanding. It can be observed from this book that the tales Guru Gobind Singh narrated to Bhai Gurbakhsh Singh were also got written by him from the calligraphist Sahib Singh. Bhai Santokh Singh has also written the story of Guru Pratap Suray based on it and Bhai Sahib has transformed a large number of references drawn from 'SJ sakhi.' by adapting them to his pen. Kuka Sikhs accord the same status to 'SJ sakhi' which, in Hindu society, is accorded to Bhavishyat Puran, and they take pleasure in giving different meanings, according to their wisdom, to the puzzling sentences of this book. The poetical composition of' SJ saHli' is not in accordance with the rules of prosody, as"guru han raI sahaI kar knsan sevie guru teg bahadur dhir. guru gObId SIgh an mng turkan ko suth bir." The year and century mentioned herein go a long way to clarify whether it was written by Guru Gobind Singh or not: "s~mat bIkram bhupati satara sat m ek (1791) mahII) sakhi var guru malki dutIya bhek." Further, it is added - "satara SJ Ikasi me sakhia lIkhiil." A large number of expressions in this book are historically contradictory, as(a) "Sayyads originated during the time of the Pandavs."-Sakhi 1.
'We have seen an old book also having tlve hundred anecdotes relating to all the ten gurus.

Shankar vvas born in village Kaldi or Kalpi in Cochin in Sammat 846 (788 AD) from the womb of mother Vishishta in the house of Shiv. a Brahman. After very deeply going through Khatshastar, Ved and Vedang, he adopted renunciation from Govir:d Swami and settling in Kashi, he preached the monoistic faith. With matchless intellect and force of education he attracted towards himself a large number of students. Having won over the chief of Mahishmati. the capital of Magadh and very famous Pandit Mandanmisar along with his unique wife Pandit Bharti, in a religious discourse, Shankar became widely known in India. Mandan and Bharti both became his disciples and after adopting renunciation they preached monism. It is mentioned by Madhavacharaya in Shankar Dig Vijay that Sankar won over a large number of scholars and defeated Buddhism in a big way. Shankaracharaya established a large number of hen nitages, the most famous ofwhich is Shringeri hermitage. situated on the bank ofTungbhadra in district Kadur of Mysore state of Sringagiri. Here he installed his brilliant disciple Mandan then known as Sureshvacharaya as the chief priest. Sankaracharaya's seat] of spiritual authority is at this place now. This hermitage is given Rs. 12,000/- annually by the state of My sore. Besides this is an estate of259 villages, with an income of Rs. 50,000/- given to this hermitage by Barihar. the king ofVijay nagar in 1346 AD. The priests installed at the other three hermitages (Dwarika, Jaganath, Badrinath)C were also scholars and capable sanyasis who

One day Prasen was killed by a lion when he went out for hunting. Jambvan killed the Iion and got back the jewel. Krishan won the jewel after fighting with Janbvan and gave it to Satrajit again.

According to Tetiriay Brahman, Prajapati went through penances to fulfil the desire of revealing himself, and his breath gained power. With his breath he created demons. then paternal ancestors, after that he thought for a while, and created human beings. When he was creating human beings. the day dawned, then he created gods. There is a description of the creation of human beings and the animals in Shatpath Brahman like this: In the beginning there was only Prajapati. After producing food grains he tried to manifest himself in them. He made animals from his vital air. people from his soul, horses from his eyes, oxen from his breath, buffaloes from his ears and goats from his voice. At another place in the same Brahman. it is written that God was alone. He was unhappy for this reason. So he desired for the Other and divided Himself into two parts; one became man and the other wife. The wife was intrigued as to how He could copulate with her after creating her from Himself! She thought of disappearing, and turned into a cow and the husband became a bull, then cows came into being. In this way she became a mare and he a horse, she the jennet and he a donkey, she the goat and he the male goat, she the doe and he the deer. So all even animals like ants came into existence. It is also written in this Brahman that Prajapati

brought into being gods from his upper breath and human beings from lower breath. They go about in the cycle of birth and death. Manu has written that with a desire to create creatures from his own body, Prajapati first created water and then threw a seed in it. This seed became a golden egg shining like the sun. From this he himself emerged as Brahma, the lord of the whole universe. After remaining for a year in the egg, Brahma automatically got divided into t\\lO parts, from which grew geologiical and celestial regions and his own body became half male and half female, resulting in the creation of the world. Several Hindu scholars have calculated that in 1928 AD one billion, ninety six crore, eight lacs, fifty three thousand and twenty-eight years will have passed since the creation of the world.' In the Bible, the scripture of the Jews and the Christians, which the Quran also regards as sacred, the creation of the worl d is th us described: In the beginning the spirit of God was moving over water. He said, "Let there be light", and light appeared. Then on the first day God separated light from darkness, and He named the 'day' light and the 'night' darkness. On the second day, the .sky' was created, on the third day different kinds of plants were produced, on the foul1h day the sun, moon and stars were created, on the j~fth day the creatures that live in water and birds were created, on the sixth day animals, large and small insects and the male and the female were created.

Scholars of music, deities and rishis, have taken $ajaj from the crying of the peacock. rI$abh from the notes of a rainbird (some believe rI:;iabh to owe its origin to the bellowing of a cow), gadhal' from the bleating of sheep and goats, madhyam from the croaking ofa water fowl, p;')cam from a koel, dhvat from the croaking of a frog, and nI$ad from the trumpet of an elephant. 2 Notes on the musical scale, which rishis set up while formulating the science of music, were called pure notes. When high and low tones were needcd for some modes, they madc five VIkrIt svars (modified notes). Out of these five, four, that is, rI:;iabh, gadhar, dhvat, and l1I:;iad become komal (soft), while madhyam becomes tivr (sharp) after modification. In this way all notes grow from 12 svars (seven original and five modified) See orz. Some untrained persons believe that rIE,iabh, gadhar, dhvat and nI:;iad are tivr, madhyam is low and $adaj and p;')cam are acal

(fixed) but this contention is wrong. In reality, al I these seven notes are called sudh (pure). According to these ignorant persons sadaj is fixed. rI::;abh is high, gadhar too is high, mudhyum is komal (soft). pacam is fixed. dhvat and l1I:;iad are high. According to great musicologists, these seven notes are $udh (pure) the remaining five modified notes are as explained above. There are 22 shrutis (microtonal intervals) of the seven notes. vv hic h we can say are the components of notes. Sec fJB. Somc ignorant people understand srutI as murchana but it is not correct, as it is related to the existence of a sequential and complete scale of seven primary notes in ascending and descending orders. SUI'S (notes) are divided into three sdptaks (groups of seven notes) so there are 21 murchanas i.e. the 21 notes are necessary for alap (a particular melody). In this book, to understand :;iudh, komal and bvr the foliowing hint will be helpful: sudh (pure)- ~a, ra. ga, rna, pa, dha, na. (ending with [aj) kumal (soft) - ra, gao dha, na. (ending with [a]) tlvr (sharp) - mi. (ending with [i]). While explaining modes ofgrahsvar, vadi, savadi, anuvadi and vIvadi words are used. So one mllst understand them properly. grahsvar is that svaf in which the alap concludes. vadi is that svar which animates a rag. savadi svar helps vadi svar to give shape to a rag. anuvadi svar helps vadi and savadi to mainfest the complete shape of a rag. vIvadi svar is that svar which destroys the shape ofa rag.
