Goddess Shailputri Blessings on Nandi | Navratri Day 1

More about this lovable image:

Yeh chitra Devi Shailputri ka hai, jo Maa Durga ka pehla aur sabse shaant swaroop hain. Unka naam hi unki kahani batata hai - ‘Shail’ yaani parvat (Himalaya) aur ‘Putri’ yaani beti. Woh Parvat Raj Himalaya ki beti hain aur Bhagwan Shiv ki ardhangini. Unka swaroop ek tapasvini aur ek maa, dono ka adbhut mishran hai. Bhakton ke liye, Maa Shailputri sthirta, dridhta aur shakti ka prateek hain, bilkul Himalaya ki tarah jo har paristhiti mein atal rehta hai. Unki upasna Navratri ke pehle din ki jaati hai, jo ki adhyatmik yatra ki shuruaat maani jaati hai. Aisa maana jaata hai ki unki pooja karne se Muladhara Chakra jaagrit hota hai, jo humare shareer mein urja ka mool strot hai. Unki krupa se bhakton ko mann ki shanti, sahas aur sahi disha milti hai. Jo log apne jeevan mein aage badhna chahte hain aur apne lakshya ko paana chahte hain, unke liye Maa Shailputri ki aradhana bahut phaldayi hoti hai. Unka komal aur vatsalya se bhara roop har maa ke prem ko darshata hai. Woh prakriti ki devi hain, aur unka astitva humein प्रकृति se judne ki prerna deta hai. Unki aankhon mein anant karuna hai aur unka aashirwad bhakton ke saare dukh aur kasht har leta hai. Devi ka yeh divya roop humein sikhata hai ki agar iraade nek aur vishwas atal ho, toh koi bhi mushkil humein apne path se hila nahi sakti. Isliye, Navratri ka aarambh unki pooja se hota hai, taaki humari adhyatmik neev unki tarah hi majboot aur sthir ho.

Is tasveer mein, humein ek ati sundar aur divya Hindu Devi ke darshan ho rahe hain, jo ek vishaal safed vrishabh (bail) par viraajman hain. Devi ki tvacha gori aur unke chehre par ek alaukik shanti aur karuna ka bhaav hai. Unki chaar bhujaayein hain, jo unki anant shakti ko darshati hain. Unhone ek behad khoobsurat magenta aur sunehre rang ki reshmi saari pehni hui hai, jiske saath ek swarnim blouse hai. Unka shringaar bhi unke roop ko aur nikhaar raha hai; unhone gale mein sone ke haar, kaano mein jhumke, aur kamar par ek sundar kardhani pehni hui hai. Unke mastak par ek bhaari aur kalatmak mukut hai, jismein laal aur hare rang ke manik jade hue hain. Unka aage ka dahina haath aashirwad dene ki mudra mein utha hua hai, jise Varada Mudra kehte hain. Peeche ke dahine haath mein unhone ek chamakta hua sunehra trishul thaama hua hai, jo unki shakti ka prateek hai. Unke dono baayein haathon mein komal gulabi rang ke kamal ke phool hain, jo pavitrata aur gyaan ka sandesh dete hain. Unka vaahan, Nandi bail, bilkul shwet rang ka hai aur shanti se pathreeli zameen par baitha hai. Uske gale mein bhi ghantiyon wala ek sunehra haar aur mastak par saaj hai. Chitra ke background mein himachhadit parvat shrinkhala, shayad Himalaya, dikh rahi hai aur upar ek saaf neela aakash hai. Devi ke mastak ke peeche se ek tejasvi aabhamandal nikal raha hai, jisse prakash ki kirnein phail rahi hain, aur yeh poore drishya ko ek adhyatmik aur divya anubhav bana raha hai. Is digital illustration mein har cheez, Devi ke vastra ki silvaton se lekar Nandi ke bhaav tak, bahut hi detail aur spasht roop se dikhayi gayi hai.

Maa Shailputri ki katha bahut hi prerak hai aur unke pichle janam se judi hui hai. Apne purva janam mein, woh Raja Daksha ki putri Sati ke roop mein jaani jaati thi. Unhone apne pita ki ichha ke viruddh Bhagwan Shiv se vivaah kiya tha. Ek baar Raja Daksha ne ek vishaal yagya ka aayojan kiya, lekin usmein Shiv aur Sati ko amantrit nahi kiya. Pita ke ghar yagya hai, yeh sochkar Sati bina bulaye hi wahan pahunch gayin. Wahan unhone dekha ki Daksha unke pati, Bhagwan Shiv, ka apmaan kar rahe hain. Apne pati ka apmaan na seh paane ke kaaran, Sati ne yagya ki agni mein apne praan tyag diye. Agle janam mein, unhone Parvat Raj Himalaya ke ghar Parvati ke roop mein janam liya. Parvat ki putri hone ke kaaran hi unhe ‘Shailputri’ kaha gaya. Is janam mein bhi unhone Bhagwan Shiv ko hi apne pati ke roop mein paane ke liye kathor tapasya ki. Unki yeh tapasya saalon tak chali, jisne devtaon ko bhi chakit kar diya. Unki isi atal nishtha aur dridh sankalp se प्रसन्न hokar Bhagwan Shiv ne unhein apni ardhangini ke roop mein sweekar kiya. Unki yeh katha humein sikhati hai ki sachche prem aur dridh nishchay se kisi bhi lakshya ko haasil kiya ja sakta hai. Unke haath mein trishul teenon guno - Sattva, Rajas aur Tamas - par unke niyantran ko darshata hai, jabki kamal ka phool saansarik moh-maya mein rehte hue bhi usse alipt rehne ka sandesh deta hai. Unka vaahan Nandi (vrishabh) dharma, sthirta aur shakti ka prateek hai. Un par viraajman hokar Devi yeh batati hain ki woh dharma ki rakshak hain. Unka mantra "ॐ देवी शैलपुत्र्यै नमः" bhakton ko sahas aur aatmavishwas pradaan karta hai.
