Do you know?

Bagh Gufa or Bagh Caves are a group of 9 rock-cut monuments, situated among the southern slopes of the Vindhyas in Bagh town of Dhar district, Madhya Pradesh. Renowned for mural paintings by master painters of ancient Bharat.
The use of the word Gufa or Cave is a bit of a misnomer for these monuments, since these are not natural, but instead excellent examples of Sanatani Rock-Cut Architecture similar to the more famous Ajanta and Ellora Cave Complex.
This site posseses the most amazing paintings known to be made by ancient man.The sophisticated style of art that is seen in the paintings of Ajanta is also found in the surviving wall paintings and in fragments of murals in many parts of India.
The cave painting technique used here was tempera. To smoothen the rocky canvas, the surface was first prepared with a gritty, reddish-brown mud plaster made of ferruginous earth, gravel, lime, and jute or hemp fibre.
Over this,a second coat of 1 mm thick rough earth plaster was made&a primer of silica& lime applied.On this prepared surface,Buddhist-themed art was painted using pigments from earthen or mineral sources,while organic vegetable gum was used as a binding medium

🌺।।Maa Matangi is the ninth Mahavidya and is the Tantric form of Goddess Saraswati।।🌺

A Thread🧵 about her story and her Tantric Significance

Also known as the Outcast Goddess of Sacred Speech, she sits on the edge of tradition.

Not quite inside the temple, and not completely outside it.Image
Maa Matangi — the ninth Mahavidya — is the Tantric form of Saraswati, but unlike her Vedic counterpart, she does not follow the rules. She breaks them to reveal a deeper, more raw truth.

Where Saraswati is pure, white, and proper —
Matangi is wild, emerald-green, and unapologetically free.
🌺।।The Story of Maa Matangi।।🌺

Once, in ancient times, the Devas offered a grand feast to Sri Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. As is customary, the leftovers from the divine feast were thrown away, for no one dared to eat what had already been offered to the Gods.

🌺।।जब भगवान श्रीकृष्ण के आह्वान पर अगस्त्य ऋषि एक घूंट में पी गए देवराज इंद्र द्वारा लाई गई बाढ़ का पानी।।🌺

माता अन्नपूर्णा और अगस्त्य ऋषि की एक कथा 🧵

जब भगवान श्री कृष्ण ने गोवर्धन को धारण किया तो भगवान ने अगस्त्य ऋषि का आह्वान किया कि अगस्त्य ऋषि आओ और इस देवराज इंद्र के द्वारा जो यहाँ जल भरा हुआ है उसको पी जाओ और अगस्त्य मुनि आये, एक घूंट में सारा जल पी गए ।Image
Image
अगस्त्य मुनि एक ऐसे ऋषि हैं जिनके पास समुद्र को भी एक घूंट बनाकर के पीने की शक्ति है ।

ऋषियों मे अत्यंत शक्तिशाली ऋषि अगस्त्य, शिवजी के परम भक्त थे । एक बार माता पार्वती, जो अन्नपूर्णा भी कहलातीं हैं, उन्होंने शिवजी से निवेदन किया, ‘महादेव ! मेरी इच्छा है कि मैं संसार के सभी साधू-महात्माओं को भोजन करवाऊँ । इसलिए आप सभी साधू-संतों व ऋषि-मुनियों को आमंत्रित कीजिए।
‘इस पर शिवजी ने जो प्रतिष्ठित संत व ऋषि-मुनि थे उनको स्वयं बुलाया कुछ को बुलाने गणों को भेजा, इस प्रकार से संसार के सभी साधू-संतों व ऋषि-मुनियों को आमंत्रित किया । लाखों साधू-संतों व ऋषि-मुनि एकत्रित हो गए । माता पार्वती ने सैंकड़ों व्यंजन भरपूर मात्रा मे बनवाए जिनको खा-खा सभी साधू-संत व ऋषि-मुनि थक गए किन्तु व्यंजन ज्यों के त्यों ही पड़े रहे ।

🌺।।Do you know about the curse that led Dhritrashtra to lose his 100 sons ?।।🌺

A Thread 🧵

King Dhritarashtra once asked Sage Vyasa, “Why did I lose all hundred of my sons? I remember my past hundred births—I committed no sin!”Image
Vyasa replied, “You remember a hundred lives, but what about before that?”

Then he revealed the truth.

Long ago, Dhritarashtra had been a mighty king. One day, a flock of swans stopped in his royal garden. Their leader entrusted his pregnant mate to the king’s care while he went on pilgrimage. She gave birth to a hundred cygnets.
The king’s cook, unaware, killed one and served it. The king loved the taste and ordered it daily—never questioning where it came from. One by one, all hundred babies were cooked and eaten.

🌺।।हिदु धर्म में पीपल का महत्त्व, क्या कहते हैं पीपल के बारे में धर्म ग्रंथ और जानिए पीपल के लाभ।।🌺

A Thread 🧵

पीपल को वृक्षों का राजा कहते हैं।

🌺।।पीपल वंदना श्लोक।।🌺

मूलम् ब्रह्मा, त्वचा विष्णु,
सखा शंकरमेवच ।
पत्रे-पत्रेका सर्वदेवानाम,
वृक्षराज नमोस्तुते ।।Image
हिदु धर्म में पीपल के पेड़ का बहुत महत्व माना गया है। शास्त्रों के अनुसार इस वृक्ष में सभी देवी-देवताओं और हमारे पितरों का वास भी माना गया है।

पीपल वस्तुत: भगवान विष्णु का जीवन्त और पूर्णत:मूर्तिमान स्वरूप ही है। भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने भी कहा है की वृक्षों में मैं पीपल हूँ।
🌺पुराणों में उल्लेख है कि;

मूलतः ब्रह्म रूपाय मध्यतो विष्णु रुपिणः।
अग्रतः शिव रुपाय अश्वत्त्थाय नमो नमः।।

अर्थात इसके मूल में भगवान ब्रह्म, मध्य में भगवान श्री विष्णु तथा अग्रभाग में भगवान शिव का वास होता है।
