Jai Jagannath - Namdev Ki Adbhut Katha

Jai Jagannath - Namdev Ki Adbhut Katha

Narrator: Jai Jagannath, Jai Jagannath, Jai Mahaprabhu. Kya aapne kabhi socha hai ki Bhagwan ko bhi kisi ne baandha hoga? Woh bhi rassi se, khambhe se? Aur sabse surprising baat, Bhagwan ne khushi-khushi bandhna accept kiya? Aaj main aapko ek aisi kahani sunane ja raha hoon jo aapke rongte khade kar degi. Yeh kahani hai ek chhote se baalak Namdev ki, jisne apni jid aur bholepan se sakshaat Bhagwan Jagannath ko dharti par utar liya. Toh chaliye shuru karte hain yeh adbhut katha.

Part 1: Nanha Bhakt Namdev

Narrator: Bohot purani baat hai, Jagannath Puri ki pavitr dharti par ek chhota sa gaon tha. Us gaon mein rehte the Namdev, ek nanha sa baalak, jiski umar tab mahaj saat-aath saal ki thi. Namdev ke nana ji gaon ke mandir mein Bhagwan Jagannath ki seva karte the. Subah chaar baje uthte, nadi se pavitr jal laate, mandir mein ghanta bajaate, aur phir bade prem se Thakur ji ko snaan karaate. Keshar, chandan, gulaab jal, sab kuch apne haathon se taiyaar karte. Phir naye vastra pehnaate, aabhushan sajaate, aur ant mein bhog padhraate. Yeh sab dekhkar chhote Namdev ka man machal uthta.

Narrator: Ek din ki baat hai, garmi ki subah thi, Suraj abhi poori tarah nikla nahi tha. Mandir ki ghantiyaan baj rahi thin, hawa mein agarbatti ki khushbu phail rahi thi. Nana ji Thakur ji ko bhog laga rahe the aur nanha Namdev darwaje ki chaukhat par khada hokar sab dekh raha tha. Uski aankhen Thakur ji ki moorti par tiki hui thin. Kaale rang ki woh moorti, badi-badi aankhen, muskuraata hua chehra, Namdev ko lagta tha jaise Thakur ji usee ko dekh rahe ho. Gali mein bachche shor macha rahe the, khelne ke liye bula rahe the, lekin Namdev ka dhyan toh bas Thakur ji par hi tha.

Narrator: Nana ji jab seva poori karke baahar aaye to dekha Nama wahin khada hai. Nana ji ne pyaar se sir par haath pher kar kaha,

Nana ji: "Kya hua lala, aaj khelne nahi jayega?"

Namdev: (aankhon mein aansoo) "Nana, mujhe bhi Thakur ji ki seva karni hai."

Nana ji: (hanste hue) "Are tu toh abhi bohot chhota hai beta, abhi khelne ki umra hai, bada ho ja toh seva karna."

Namdev: (jid se) "Nahi Nana, main abhi se karunga. Main chhota nahi hoon."

Nana ji: (samjhaate hue) "Dekh lala, seva koi khel nahi hai. Badi zimmedari ka kaam hai. Thakur ji ko samay par bhog lagana, samay par snaan karana, zara si galti hui toh apraadh ho jaata hai. Tu abhi itna samajhdar nahi hua."

Namdev: (rote hue) "Toh main kab bada honga? Mujhe kitne din intezaar karna hoga?"

Nana ji: (gale lagaate hue) "Dekh, abhi toh main hoon na seva ke liye. Jab kabhi main kahin baahar jaunga, koi teerth yatra par jaunga, tab tu seva kar lena. Tab tak dheeraj rakh."

Part 2: Intezaar ki Ghadiyan

Narrator: Us din ke baad se Namdev ka routine hi badal gaya. Subah uthte hi sabse pehla sawaal,

Namdev: "Nana, aaj aap kahin ja rahe ho kya?"

Nana ji: (hanste hue) "Nahi beta, aaj toh nahi."

Namdev: (dopahar mein) "Nana, koi kaam nahi hai aapko baahar ka?"

Nana ji: "Nahi lala."

Namdev: (shaam mein) "Nana, aapko kabhi teerth yatra par nahi jaana? Bade-bade sadhu sant toh har saal kahin na kahin jaate hain, aap kyun nahi jaate?"

Nana ji: (hanste hue) "Are is lala ko toh mere jaane ka besabri se intezaar hai."

Namdev: "Nana, agar aapko kahin jaana nahi hai toh main khud aapke liye teerth yatra ka prabandh kar dunga. Aap bas chale jaiye."

Nana ji: "Achha theek hai, jaldi hi koi mauka aayega toh main chala jaunga."

Narrator: Aur waakai, Bhagwan ki leela dekhiye. Kuch hi dinon baad gaon ke kuch buzurgon ne milkar ek badi teerth yatra ki yojna banayi. Kashi, Prayag, Vrindavan, Dwarka, sab jagah jaana tha. Kareeb teen mahine ka samay lagne wala tha. Nana ji ne socha ki yeh achha mauka hai, lekin phir socha, mandir ki seva ka kya hoga?

Narrator: Tabhi Namdev daudta hua aaya. Usne suna tha ki Nana ji teerth yatra par ja sakte hain.

Namdev: "Nana Nana, maine suna aap teerth yatra par ja rahe ho?"

Nana ji: "Haan lala, soch raha hoon, lekin tu itna khush kyun ho raha hai?"

Namdev: "Ab mujhe seva ka mauka milega na!"

Nana ji: (gambhir hokar) "Dekh lala, seva koi khel nahi hai. Agar maine tujhe seva saunpi aur tune koi galti kar di toh?"

Namdev: (haath jodkar) "Nana, main vachan deta hoon, koi galti nahi hogi. Aap mujhe sikha dijiye, main sab kuch theek se karunga."

Nana ji: (gahri saans lete hue) "Theek hai, lekin ek baat gaanth baandh lena. Main tujhe sabse mahatvpurn baat bataata hoon. Sun lala, Thakur ji ko bhog lagaye bina tu kabhi kuch nahi khayega. Yehi sabse bada niyam hai. Pehle Thakur ji khayenge, phir tu khana. Agar Thakur ji nahi khayenge toh tu bhi nahi khayega. Samjha?"

Namdev: (sar hilaate hue) "Samajh gaya Nana, pehle Thakur ji, phir main."

Nana ji: (muskurate hue) "Bas, yahi yaad rakhna."

Part 3: Pehla Din aur Niraasha

Narrator: Aakhirkaar woh din aa gaya jab Nana ji ko teerth yatra par jaana tha. Subah-subah poora pariwaar ikattha hua. Nana ji ne apna chhota sa bag uthaya, mandir mein jaakar Thakur ji ko pranaam kiya, aur phir Namdev ke paas aaye.

Nana ji: (sar par haath rakh kar) "Lala, ab mandir tere haath mein hai. Thakur ji tere haath mein hai. Sambhal kar rakhna. Yaad rakhna, pehle Thakur ji khayenge, phir tu."

Namdev: (rote hue) "Nana, aap chinta mat kijiye. Main Thakur ji ka bohot dhyaan rakhunga."

Narrator: Nana ji chal pade. Nana ji ke jaate hi Namdev seedha mandir mein pahuncha. Usne darwaza band kiya aur Thakur ji ki moorti ke saamne baith gaya.

Namdev: "Thakur ji, ab sirf main aur aap. Ab Nana ji nahi hai. Ab main aapki seva karunga. Aap mujhse khush rehna. Main aapko bohot pyaar karta hoon."

Narrator: Agle din subah chaar baje Namdev uth gaya. Nadi se pavitr jal laaya, mandir mein ghanta bajaaya, aur bade prem se Thakur ji ko snaan karaaya.

Keshar ka lep banaya, chandan ghisa, gulaab jal chhidka. Phir naye sundar vastra pehnaaye. Phir rasoi mein gaya, khud apne haathon se bhog banaya. Kheer banayi, poori banayi, sabzi banayi. Jab bhog taiyaar hua toh Namdev ne badi sundar thali sajai. Thakur ji ke saamne thali rakhi, deep jalaaya, dhoop jalaayi, aur phir haath jodkar baith gaya.

Namdev: "Thakur ji, aapka bhog taiyaar hai. Ab aap khaiye. Main yahin baitha hoon. Jab tak aap nahi khayenge, main nahi khaunga. Nana ji ne kaha tha na, pehle aap, phir main. Toh aap jaldi khaiye, mujhe bhi bohot bhookh lagi hai."

Narrator: Paanch minute beete, das minute beete, pandrah minute beete. Namdev ne aankhen kholeen. Thakur ji waise hi khade the, moorti ki tarah. Bhog waisa ka waisa rakha tha. Namdev ne phir aankhen band kareen.

Namdev: "Thakur ji, shayad aapko pata nahi chala. Main phir bol raha hoon, bhog taiyaar hai, aap khaiye."

Narrator: Aadha ghanta beet gaya. Kuch nahi badla. Namdev ne thali uthayi, rasoi mein le gaya, phir se sab dekha. Sab theek tha. Phir se thali sajai, aur laakar rakh di.

Namdev: "Thakur ji, ab toh khaiye na. Maine sab kuch theek se banaya hai. Aap kyun nahi kha rahe?"

Narrator: Pura din beet gaya. Dopahar hui, shaam hui, raat hui. Namdev ne kuch nahi khaya. Uske ghar se log aaye.

Villager: "Nama, kuch kha toh le."

Namdev: "Nahi, Nana ji ne kaha tha, pehle Thakur ji khayenge, phir main. Thakur ji ne abhi tak nahi khaya, toh main kaise khaun?"

Part 4: Teesra Din - Had se Had

Narrator: Teesre din subah jab Namdev utha toh woh bohot kamzor ho chuka tha. Ladkhadaate hue nadi gaya, paani laaya, mandir mein aaya. Thakur ji ko snaan karaaya, lekin is baar uske haath kaamp rahe the. Bhog banaya, lekin rasoi mein kai baar use chakkar aaye. Phir bhi usne haar nahi maani. Bhog taiyaar kiya, thali sajai, aur mandir mein rakh di. Is baar Namdev ki aankhon se lagataar aansoo behne lage.

Namdev: "Thakur ji, aaj teesra din ho gaya. Main teen din se bhookha hoon. Mujhe samajh nahi aa raha ki aap kyun nahi kha rahe. Kya aapko Nana ji ki aadat lag gayi hai? Kya aap sirf unhi ke haath ka khate ho? Main baalak hoon toh kya hua? Mera pyaar bhi toh sachcha hai. Maine kitni mehnat se sab banaya, kitne pyaar se sajaya. Phir bhi aap nahi kha rahe."

Narrator: Namdev ka gala bharra gaya. Woh rote hue bola,

Namdev: "Thakur ji, agar aaj bhi aapne nahi khaya na, toh main samajh jaunga ki meri bhakti mein koi kami hai. Main samajh jaunga ki aap mujhse pyaar nahi karte. Aur agar aap mujhse pyaar nahi karte toh mere jeene ka kya matlab?"

Narrator: Itna kahkar Namdev ne idhar-udhar dekha. Mandir ke ek kone mein phal kaatne ke liye ek chhoti si chhuri rakhi thi. Namdev utha aur ladkhadaate hue us chhuri ki taraf badha. Usne chhuri utha li. Woh waapas Thakur ji ke saamne aaya, ghutnon ke bal baith gaya, aur chhuri ko apne gale ke paas le gaya.

 

Namdev: "Thakur ji, aakhri baar keh raha hoon, agar aap nahi khayenge toh main apne praan tyaag dunga. Main is duniya mein nahi rahunga jahan mere Thakur ji mujhse pyaar nahi karte."

Part 5: Pragat Hue Bhagwan

Narrator: Namdev ne chhuri ko gale se chhuaya. Bas ab ek second ki deri thi. Namdev ne aankhen band kar li aur chhuri ko dabaane hi wala tha ki achaanak... ek divya roshni mandir mein phail gayi. Ek adbhut khushbu aayi. Aur sabse adbhut baat, Namdev ko laga jaise kisi ne uska haath pakad liya hai. Namdev ne ghabraakar aankhen kholeen toh dekha, Thakur ji ki moorti nahi thi. Uski jagah sakshaat Bhagwan Jagannath khade the. Jeevit, muskurate hue, aur unka haath Namdev ki kalai par tha. Namdev ki chhuri haath se gir gayi.

Lord Jagannath: (thode gusse mein) "Are Nama, yeh kya pagalpan kar raha hai tu? Tu kya sochta hai? Tu chhuri dikhaakar mujhe dhamki dega aur main aa jaunga? Are, mujhe prakat hone ke liye time lagta hai. Thoda dheeraj toh rakhna chahiye tha. Tune toh teen din mein hi hadbadi macha di."

Namdev: (aankhon se aansuon ki dhaar) "Thakur ji, aap... aap sach mein aa gaye?"

Lord Jagannath: (muskurate hue) "Haan Nama, main aa gaya. Ab tu khush?"

Namdev: (rote hue) "Thakur ji, ab aa gaye ho toh mujhe updesh mat dijiye. Bas chupchaap baithiye aur khana khaiye. Dekhiye, teen din se taiyaar hai."

Lord Jagannath: (hanste hue) "Are, tu toh bada seedha hai re. Theek hai, teri baat maanta hoon."

Narrator: Bhagwan Jagannath baith gaye. Namdev ne turant thali unke saamne rakhi. Bhagwan ne pyaar se Namdev ke haath se banaya bhog khana shuru kiya. Jab Bhagwan ne sab kuch kha liya toh bole,

Lord Jagannath: "Nama, bohot swaadisht tha. Tune bohot pyaar se banaya hai. Ab tu bhi kha le."

Namdev: "Haan Thakur ji, ab main bhi khaunga."

Narrator: Aur us din se ek naya niyam shuru ho gaya. Har din Namdev bhog banata, thali sajata, aur Bhagwan Jagannath prakat hote. Dono saath mein baithkar khate. Kabhi-kabhi Bhagwan Namdev se baatein karte, kabhi uske saath khelte.

Part 6: Nana ji ki Wapsi

Narrator: Kuch hafte beet gaye. Ek din subah-subah mandir ki ghanti badi. Namdev bhog bana raha tha. Darwaza khola toh dekha, Nana ji khade the. Teerth yatra se laut aaye the.

Namdev: "Nana Nana, aap aa gaye!"

Nana ji: (gale lagaate hue) "Haan lala, aa gaya. Kaisi rahi seva? Thakur ji khush toh hain na?"

Namdev: (shararat se muskurate hue) "Nana, aap khud hi dekh lijiye. Andar chaliye."

Narrator: Nana ji mandir mein gaye. Mandir ka poora vatavaran badal gaya tha. Ek adbhut divyata thi. Thakur ji ki moorti se ek ajeeb si chamak nikal rahi thi. Khushbu hi kuch aur thi.

Narrator: Dopahar hui. Nana ji ne socha ki aaj main bhog lagaunga. Unhone apne puraane tarike se bhog banaya, thali sajai, mandir mein le gaye. Thodi der parda lagaya, mantra padhe, aur phir thali utha li. Jaise hi Nana ji thali lekar baahar aaye, Namdev daudkar aaya.

Namdev: "Nana Nana, rukiye rukiye! Thakur ji ne toh abhi khaya hi nahi aur aapne thali utha li. Kam se kam unhe aaram se khane toh dete."

Nana ji: (muskurate hue) "Beta, Bhagwan toh bhaav se kha lete hain. Asli mein toh woh nahi khate. Yeh toh hamari shraddha hai."

Namdev: (sar hilaate hue) "Nahi Nana, mere saath toh aisa nahi hota. Jab main bhog lagata hoon toh Thakur ji sach mein aate hain aur sab kuch kha jaate hain. Ek daana bhi nahi bachta."

Nana ji: (hairan) "Kya keh raha hai tu? Thakur ji khud aakar khate hain?"

Namdev: (garv se) "Haan Nana, roz aate hain. Hum dono saath mein baithkar khate hain."

Nana ji: "Achha theek hai, agar aisa hai toh aaj tu bhog laga, main bhi dekhu ki Thakur ji kaise aate hain."

Part 7: Pariksha aur Punah Pragat

Namdev: "Bilkul Nana, aap baithiye, main abhi bhog lagata hoon."

Narrator: Namdev ne jaldi se bhog taiyaar kiya, thali sajai, aur mandir mein rakh di. Phir bade adhikaar se bola,

Namdev: "Thakur ji, aa jaiye. Roz ki tarah aaiye. Aaj Nana bhi dekh rahe hain. Jaldi aaiye."

Narrator: Lekin aaj kuch alag hua. Thakur ji nahi aaye. Mandir mein sannaata tha. Sirf moorti khadi thi. Namdev ne phir pukara, phir pukara. Lekin kuch nahi hua. Nana ji baahar baithe muskura rahe the. Namdev ki aankhon mein aansoo aa gaye.

Namdev: (gusse se) "Thakur ji, toh aaj aap mera mazaak banana chahte ho? Nana ji ke saamne meri beizzati karwana chahte ho? Achha theek hai."

Narrator: Namdev phir usi kone mein gaya aur wahi chhuri utha laaya.

Nana ji: (ghabra kar) "Nama yeh kya kar raha hai?"

Namdev: (chhuri gale par rakh kar) "Thakur ji, agar aap nahi aaye toh samajhunga ki aapka pyaar jhootha tha. Aapne mujhe dhokha diya. Aur agar aisa hai toh main jeena nahi chahta."

Narrator: Nana ji daude, lekin tab tak der ho chuki thi. Namdev ne chhuri ko dabaana shuru kar diya tha. Aur tabhi... phir se wahi divya roshni, phir se wahi khushbu, aur achaanak Bhagwan Jagannath ka haath prakat hua. Unhone Namdev ki kalai pakad li. Nana ji wahi jam gaye.

Lord Jagannath: (thode gusse mein) "Nama, tune phir se yahi harkat kar di. Tu mujhe baar-baar dhamki deta hai. Chhuri dikhaakar mujhe daraata hai. Are, mujhe kitna kaam hai. Poore brahmaand ko sambhalna hai. Par tu toh apni jid pakad kar baith jaata hai."

Namdev: (rote hue) "Toh kya karun? Aap aaj Nana ke saamne nahi aaye toh unhe kya lagega? Woh sochenge main jhooth bol raha hoon."

Lord Jagannath: "Achha theek hai, ab aa gaya na."

Narrator: Nana ji ne Bhagwan ke charnon mein gir kar kaha,

Nana ji: "Prabhu, main dhanya ho gaya. Aaj mera jeevan safal ho gaya."

Lord Jagannath: (Nana ji ko uthaate hue) "Nana ji, aapki seva bhi bohot sundar hai. Lekin Nama ki bhakti mein ek khaas baat hai. Woh mujhe Bhagwan nahi, apna maanta hai. Uska prem nishchhal hai, shuddh hai. Uss mein koi dar nahi, koi aupcharikta nahi. Bas prem hai. Aur main prem ka bhookha hoon."

Nana ji: (Namdev ko gale lagaate hue) "Nama, tu mera guru hai. Jo main barson mein nahi kar paaya, tune chaar dinon mein kar dikhaya."

Part 8: Bhagwan Ko Baandha

Lord Jagannath: "Ab mujhe jaana hoga."

Namdev: (ghabra kar) "Nahi-nahi, aap kahin nahi jaaoge. Aap yahin rahoge."

Lord Jagannath: (hanste hue) "Are, main toh jaunga hi. Mujhe bohot kaam hai."

Namdev: "Nahi, agar aap gaye toh phir kab aaoge? Phir kab miloge?"

Narrator: Tabhi Namdev ki nazar mandir ke ek khambhe par gayi. Uske dimaag mein ek shararti vichar aaya. Usne jaldi se ek rassi uthayi aur Bhagwan ki taraf badha.

Lord Jagannath: "Are Nama, yeh kya kar raha hai?"

Namdev: "Thakur ji, aap baar-baar chale jaate ho. Phir aane mein der karte ho. Main aapko is khambhe se baandh raha hoon. Ab aap kahin nahi jaaoge."

Lord Jagannath: (hanste hue) "Are pagle, tu mujhe baandh lega?"

Namdev: (dridhta se) "Haan, main aapko baandh loonga. Aap mere ho. Main aapko jaane nahi dunga."

Narrator: Aur sachmuch, Namdev ne Bhagwan ko rassi se khambhe se baandh diya.

Nana ji: (hairan) "Nama, yeh kya kar raha hai? Bhagwan ko koi baandhta hai kya?"

Lord Jagannath: (khushi se) "Theek hai Nama, teri jeet hui. Main bandh gaya. Prem mein bandhna mujhe pyaara lagta hai."

Conclusion

Narrator: Us din se lekar aaj tak, Bhagwan Jagannath ki moorti ke paas ek rassi ka nishaan hai. Kehte hain ki Namdev ne us din Bhagwan ko baandh liya tha. Aur Bhagwan khushi-khushi bandh gaye the. Kyunki prem mein bandhna unhe pyaara lagta hai.

Yeh kahani humein sikhati hai ki Bhagwan humse bohot door nahi hai. Woh toh humare bilkul paas hain. Bas humein unhe sachche dil se pukarna aana chahiye. Namdev ne koi badi pooja nahi ki, koi bada yagya nahi kiya. Usne toh bas apne pyaar se Bhagwan ko bulaaya. Aur Bhagwan aa gaye. Bhagwan ko humare phool nahi, humara prem chahiye. Unhe humare mantra nahi, humara bhaav chahiye.

Aaj bhi jab hum Jagannath Puri jaate hain toh hamein Namdev ki yaad aati hai. Us chhote se baalak ki jisne apni jid se, apne prem se, sakshaat Bhagwan ko dharti par utar liya tha.

Toh dosto, agar aapko yeh kahani achhi lagi ho, toh comment mein bataaiye ki aapko is kahani se kya seekh mili. Aur haan, agar aapke man mein bhi Bhagwan ke prati aisa hi prem hai, toh unhe bhi zaroor bulaaiye. Woh zaroor aayenge. Kyunki Bhagwan prem ke bhookhe hain.

Jai Jagannath!
