Radha Krishna Kuti Mandir

Durga Mandir

sama chakeva pavani.

To day is sama chakeva parva which is celebrated in Mithila.  This is a traditional parva which has now been confined to Mithila only.  We should cherish and conserve this parva.  The story of this parva belongs to Mahabharat Kaal and short brief of the same is as under:

भाई-बहिनक प्रेम गाथा छी सामा-चकेबा : भाई-बहिन क पवित्र प्रेम क प्रतीक पर्व सामा-चकेवा आइ अपन वजूदक लेल संघर्ष कए रहल अछि। ओना मिथिलाक किछु भाग मे एखनो लोकगीत स गुंजायमान एहि पर्वक महत्व कायम अछि। छठिक राति स कार्तिक पूर्णिमा तक बहिन क कंठ स निकलैत स्वर लहरी कान मे मधु टपकाबैत अछि। राति कए बहिन सामा-चकेवा क मूर्ति क संग-संग वृंदावन, चुगला आदि स भरल डाला ले कए सामूहिक रूप स जोतल खेत, खलिहान, चौक-चौराहा पर जुटय लगैत छथि। छोट-छोट नैना क संग-संग बूढिय़ा बहिन तक एहि मे हिस्सा लैत छथि। एहि दौरान बहिन ‘गाम कए अधिकारी तोहें बड़का भैया हो, हाथ दस पोखरि खुना दिए, चंपा फुल लगा दिए हे…Ó आदि गीत क संग सामा-चकेवा क मूर्ति एक-दूसर क हाथ मे दकए पहिने अपन-अपन भाईक दीर्घ आयुक कामना करैत छथि। एहि पर्वक खास गप ई सेहो अछि जे एकर गीत मे पर्यावरण संरक्षण क संदेश सेहो देल जाइत अछि। कार्तिक पूर्णिमाक राति बहिन सामा-चकेवा क मूर्ति क संग-संग वृंदावन, चुगला आदि स भरल डाला ले कए जोतल खेत मे जमा होइत छथि। ओहि ठाम सबस पहिने शिरिक आदान-प्रदान होइत अछि। एहि प्रक्रियाक संबंध मे कहल जाइत अछि जे जतेक बहिन स शिरिक आदान-प्रदान करब भाइक बैस ओतेक बढ़त। ताहि लेल बहिन सब टोल-मोहल्लाक एकोटा मौगि स शिरिक आदन-प्रदान करब नहि बिसरैत छथि। एहि दौरान साउस-पुतहु व ननदि-भाउज एक-दोसरा स शिरिक आदान-प्रदान करैत गाउल गीत मे अपन सबटा भाईक नाम एक-एक कए लइत जाइत छथि। फेर प्रतीक रूप म वृंदावन मे आगि लगा कए ओहि मे चुगला कए जड़ा कए गबैत छथि,’वृंदावन मे आगि लागल कियो नहि मिझाबे हे, हमर बड़का-छोटका भईया मिलकए मिझाउत हे।Óबहिन चूड़कक पुतला क मुंह झुलसा कए खराब चरित्र क प्रति विरोध दर्ज कैत ओकरा लेल अपशकुन क कामना करैत छथि। फेर पिछला 15 दिन मे बनाउल एक-एक टा सामा-चकेवा क मूर्ति कए लग कए घर दिस विदा भ जाइत छथि। मुदा भाग्य चक्र स बिमुख दू टा मैना, जेकरा बाटो-बहिन कहल जाइत अछि, तेकरा बाट पर छोडि़ दैत छथि। घर पहुंचला पर भाई स सामा-चकेवा क सबटा मूर्ति तुड़वा लैत छथि। एना खत्म होइत अछि सामा-चकेबाक शापित काल।

annual function at neelkanth mandir

On Sunday dated 03.10.2010, I reached my lovely village after almost one year.  To my utter surprise, I came to know that there was a function where some bhajan singers of our village are performing in the Neelkanth Mandir.  When I reached Mandir, I saw Shri Sohan to perform nachari, devi bhajan and shiv bhajan etc.  Upto that time I didn't know that there was some special occasion which have been celebrated in our village every year.  That was the Varshikotsav at Shiv Mandir.  In my earlier days, i used to visit mandir with my father during such varshikotsav samaroh.  The environment of neelkanth mandir was amazing and full of devotion.  The campus of mandir was full with gents and ladies and all were enjoying the bhakti ras amrit.  Sohan is a very good singer and he is blessed with very good voice.  I think, if he is given opportunity, he will certainly excel in this field.
After the performance of Shri Sohan, the artists of our neighbour Bangaon (village of so many itellectuals, bhakts like Shri Shri 108 Shri Laxminath Gosain) came and rocked the campus of neelkanth mandir with arrays of bhakti sangeet of many reknowned geetkar viz. Laxminath Gosain, Madhukant Jha Madhukar and Premi Ji.  Nandji of Bangaon (Part of Naval-Nand Jodi of Maithili sangeet) started with a shiv bhajan of Babajee "hum nai karab ehan jamai".  Later he performed a very famous nachari of Premiji "japto nai kiyo tohar naam hau baba".  All listners and bhakt started dancing on the tune of Nand Ji.  I am perhaps fortunate to be present on this auspicious occasion and saw the live performance of Shri Nand Ji.  Certainly he is a gem of Mithila and I pray to audhardani that he may get all the things in his life.
After the performance of nandji several artists of Bangaon performed on this occasion.  Some of them are Shri Bechan Poddar and his daughter Sakshi Kumari.  We were used to see performing Bechan Poddar as dancer only but bhajan from him shows his versatility in singing.
Really, this was a grand occasion and I hope, i will be present, whenever, Mahadev permits us.

Raksha Bandhan

every year, when raksha bandhan comes, i go to the past at a fast pace and i see the scenes of childhood when most of my friends get the rakhi tied on his hand by his beloved sister.  I some times feel depressed as i haven't my own sister, but my cousin never ever let me to be in so much depressed state.  After getting rakhi from my  sister, i and other friends of mine used to go out and see different friends in different moods.  Particularly those friends who has large number of sisters.  I would like to mention two friends namely jyotisi (perhaps having seven  sisters) and manoj (five sisters).  Their arms were full of rakhi and i some times felt jealous about them.  Now i think this is the life.  In modern times, i perhaps don't understand or don't try to understand meaning of such festivities.  Perhaps this is due to the reason that now we became so called mature or intellectual, which we lacked in our childhood but i want to remain in my childhood. what a fine days that was when we were not thinking about any thing except enjoyment, though how small that was.

HAPPY RAKSHA BANDHAN TO ALL.

Matric result

On 22th may, result of matric was announced.  Mohan kr. Thakur and Shekhar suman of our school Bhagirath High School Chainpur-parari,  have secured 1st and 2nd position respectively by getting 86.6% and 85.2% respectively.  The result of this year is record breaking result. As far as i know, no one has got so much marks in matriculation exam from our school.  4 or 5 students have got more than 80% marks. Hats off to them. We hope that this type of result by Bhagirath High School Chainpur-parari will  continue in future also.

Best wishes to all students of High School.
