दा॒सप॑त्नी॒रहि॑गोपा अतिष्ठ॒न्निरु॑द्धा॒ आपः॑ प॒णिने॑व॒ गावः॑ ।
अ॒पां बिल॒मपि॑हितं॒ यदासी॑द्वृ॒त्रं ज॑घ॒न्वाँ अप॒ तद्व॑वार ॥

Word-Meaning: -
हे सभापते ! (पाणिनेव) गाय आदि पशुओं के पालने और (गावः) गौओं को यथायोग्य स्थानों में रोकनेवाले के समान (दासपत्नीः) अति बल देनेवाला मेघ जिनका पति के समान और (अहिगोपाः) रक्षा करनेवाला है वे (निरुद्धाः) रोके हुए (आपः) (अतिष्ठन्) स्थित होते हैं उन (अपाम्) जलों का (यत्)
जो (बिलम्) गर्त्त अर्थात् एक गढ़े के समान स्थान (अपहितम्) ढ़ापसा रक्खा (आसीत्)* उस (वृत्रम्) मेघ को सूर्य (जघन्वान्) मारता है मारकर (तत्) उस जल की (अपववार) रुकावट तोड़ देता है वैसे आप शत्रुओं को दुष्टाचार से रोक के न्याय अर्थात् धर्ममार्ग को प्रकाशित रखिये ॥११॥
Purport : -
इस मंत्र में उपमा और वाचकलुप्तोपमालङ्कार हैं। जैसे गोपाल अपनी गौओं को अपने अनुकूल स्थान में रोक रखता और फिर उस स्थान का दरवाजा खोल के निकाल देता है और जैसे मेघ अपने मंडल में जलों का द्वार रोक के उन जलों को वश में रखता है वैसे सूर्य्य उस मेघ को ताड़ना देता..
.. और उस जल की रुकावट को तोड़ के अच्छे प्रकार उसे बरसाता है वैसे ही राजपुरुषों को चाहिये कि शत्रुओं को रोकेकर प्रजा का यथायोग्य पालन किया करें ॥११॥

.. namely Larvi [Lata for Gujarat] and Harkandh... In these islands, ruled by the woman, coconut palms grow in abundance. The distance between one island and the other is two, three or four farsakh, and each one of these is inhabited by people and has coconut palms... ImageImageImageImage

Review on Growth of Scheduled Castes and Tribes in Medieval India by Dr K S Lal. [#Thread ] #History #india #scheduledtribe #scheduledcaste #caste #indic #civilization #Hindus #hinduism #SanatanDharma #medieval #bharat
This well researched book is a gem for all those who are curious to learn the actual state of the present day STs/SCs during Medieval Ages, especially in Hindu Society.
It challenges and devastates the false extreme narrative built first by colonial Western Indologists and later popularised by Marxists Historians, that Hindu upper castes used to unleash unimaginable amount of inhuman atrocities on lower castes..

As per the extracts from the works of French Sinologist Paul Pelliot who researched on Indo China history, there exists a strong historical link between India and the Hindu Kingdom of Khmer in Funan (present day Cambodia).
The research says about Hun-t’ien (Indian name Kaundinya) whom Indian legend regard was a great Brahmin who received his spear from Asvatthaman (Aswathama), son of Drona, teacher of the Pandavas in the epic Mahabharata.

This is what I-Tsing (635 CE-?), Chinese pilgrim (Sanskrit name Pragnadeva), observed abt abstinence from onions among Indians of all classes contrary to today’s popular belief that only Brahmins or upper class avoid onion👇 #History #india #bharat #onions #food #abstinence
“Indian abstinence from onions: When I was in the Nalanda monastery, I discussed this point with the Dhyana master Wu-hing, but we were doubtful still and could not exactly distinguish one from the other...
.. None of the people of all the five parts of India eat any kind of onions, or raw vegetables, and therefore they do not suffer from indigestion; the stomach and the intestines are healthy, and there is no trouble in their becoming hard and aching.”
