00:00The city of Japa, Tapa and Adhyatma is colored in the colors of Mahakumbha these days.
00:05Millions of devotees from all over the country have come here and are putting their faith in the Triveni Sangam.
00:11There is a temple in Teerth Raj, Prayag Raj, where the journey of the devotees to the Triveni Sangam is considered incomplete without a darshan.
00:19We are talking about the Nag Vasuki Temple, the king of the snakes located at the northern corner of Daraganj.
00:26This temple, situated on the banks of the Ganga river, is the main center of spirituality.
00:31Here, to get rid of the Kaalsarp dosha, lakhs of people perform puja and archana every year.
00:37Along with Magha, Ardha, Kumbha and Mahakumbha, devotees are also worshipped here during the Nag Panchami and Sawan.
00:45According to the ancient beliefs, without the darshan of Nag Vasuki, Mahakumbha bath is considered incomplete.
00:53See, this is the Nag Vasuki Temple. The king of the snakes in Shankarji's neck is the same Nag Vasuki.
01:01When the sea was churning, the deities prayed to him, that if you become a rope, then we will attain Amrit.
01:12So, he made his body stiff for the deities.
01:16He was made a rope, Madrachal mountain was made Matani.
01:21When the sea started churning, the mountain started going down.
01:26When it started going down, Bishmu Bhagwan took the form of a rope and sat down at the bottom of the mountain.
01:32The mountain came up again.
01:33The sea churned.
01:35From that, the Amrit pot came out.
01:37Bishmu Bhagwan with his power divided the pot into two parts.
01:41One part was Madra and the other part was Amrit.
01:43Bishmu Bhagwan was making the deities attain Amrit.
01:48And the Rajshudras attained Madra.
01:50Rahu came to know that the deities were cheating with him.
01:53He took the form of a snake and sat quietly in the line of the deities.
01:59By mistake, Bishmu Bhagwan made Rahu attain Amrit.
02:03When Bishmu Bhagwan remembered that this is Rahu,
02:07till the time his neck was severed, till the time he attained Amrit, he was immortal.
02:12The neck was severed, but one demon became two demons.
02:17The upper one was Rahu and the lower one was Ketu.
02:19They used to trouble everyone by sitting in the Yuvajgraha.
02:23Now, there was a fire in their body.
02:27The deities took the Amrit pot from there and ran away.
02:31The demons followed them.
02:33So, he said that Amrit could not flow anywhere.
02:36So, four drops of Amrit pot flowed.
02:39One drop in Raghraj, one in Ujjain, one in Nashik and one in Haridwar.
02:45In four places, Amrit pot flows.
02:49Now, there was a fire in their body.
02:53They asked Bishmu Bhagwan to give them such a place
02:57where they could serve other people for a few days.
03:01So, they were given a place in Raghraj near Ganga, in front of the temple.
03:07They stayed in Gangaji for about 7000 years.
03:11People used to bow down to him.
03:14No one knew his greatness.
03:16The first Yajna in India was done by Brahmaji in Raghraj Dasa Sumerghat.
03:22Shankarji was established there.
03:24When the Yajna started, Brahmaji and all the deities gathered there.
03:29Vasukiji also went there.
03:31After the Yajna, when the deities started going back to their places,
03:36Vasukiji also started coming.
03:38So, Bishmu Bhagwan said,
03:40This Brahmaji and Vasukiji have been established here.
03:44They have been studying here for a long time.
03:45No one knows their greatness.
03:46So, he was a little upset.
03:48I have been studying for so many days.
03:50Now, let me study.
03:52He said, don't be upset.
03:54If you want to ask for any promise, then ask.
03:56So, he asked for three promises.
03:58The first promise was,
04:00The one who will visit me with full devotion,
04:05I will give him peace of mind.
04:09And the second promise was,
04:12Whoever comes to Raghraj to bathe in the Ganges,
04:15in Kumbh, Ardh Kumbh, Adhik Maas or Magh,
04:19if he does not visit me, he will not get any fruit.
04:24The third promise was,
04:26There are twelve Madhavas here.
04:29In all four directions of Raghraj,
04:31North, East, North, South,
04:33they protect.
04:35Eleven Madhavas are present here.
04:37One Madhava is missing in Gangaji.
04:39The temple of Arshi Madhava is present here.
04:44The temple of Dedi Madhava is one kilometer away from here.
04:48Arshi Madhava and Dedi Madhava,
04:50both the temples were present here earlier.
04:53In Gangaji, both the temples are full.
04:56We found a statue of Dedi Madhava under the Neem tree.
04:59We have inscribed it in the temple.
05:02And we have also inscribed a new statue there.
05:05Now, when the aarti takes place here in the evening,
05:11at 9.30 pm,
05:12the bed of Dedi Madhava is placed here.
05:15And after the aarti,
05:17Dedi Madhava takes his place in the morning.
05:20According to Pandit Shyam Bihari,
05:22when the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb
05:24was demolishing the temples in India,
05:26he himself went to demolish the Nag Vasuki temple.
05:29But he could not demolish the temple.
05:32Aurangzeb wanted to destroy all the powers of India.
05:37He hit Bastiji three times.
05:40One time he hit him with a spear.
05:42The second time he hit him with a milk jug.
05:44When he hit the third time,
05:46the milk jug came out.
05:47And it fell in his mouth.
05:49And it fell on the Ganga.
05:51He fell unconscious.
05:53The soldiers picked him up from here
05:55and took him to Dasa Sumer Ghat.
05:57As he was coming to Dasa Sumer Ghat,
05:59he came to his senses.
06:00When Brahmaji had worshipped Shankarji,
06:03he also hit him with three swords.
06:05He hit one, two, three times.
06:07There was an electric shock.
06:09He also fell unconscious there.
06:11After that, the soldiers took him to the fort.
06:14The fort on the banks of the river Yamuna.
06:18From there, Aurangzeb ran straight to Delhi.
06:20He ran away.
06:21He never returned.
06:23During the Mahakumbh,
06:25the devotees came to the Nag Vasuki temple.
06:27They were very happy with the Mahakumbh arrangement.
06:30The devotees said that
06:32they had never seen such an arrangement before.
06:34They have credited it to the double engine government.
06:38We have come from Washington DC, USA.
06:41About the Kumbh, we would like to say
06:43that the government of the double engine,
06:45our Modi ji and Yogi ji,
06:47have made arrangements for all the pilgrims.
06:49It is very good.
06:51The importance of bathing here,
06:53bathing in the Sangam,
06:55they have made a very good arrangement for that.
06:58We got the opportunity to bathe in the Sangam.
07:01It is said that when you bathe in the Sangam,
07:03it is complete.
07:05This is the Nag Vasuki temple.
07:08This is the Nag Vasuki temple.
07:11It is an ancient temple.
07:13It has been important since ancient times.
07:15It has been used as the rope of Vasuki.
07:21It feels very good.
07:24It feels like our journey is complete.
07:28This is a divine, digital and unique Kumbh.
07:32If you talk about the double engine government,
07:36then there can be no better arrangement than this.
07:39Neither the previous governments have been able to do it,
07:41nor will the coming governments be able to do it.
07:43The kind of arrangement that is happening in the leadership of Modi ji and Yogi ji,
07:48such facilities have not been seen till date.
07:51People who come to the Kumbh Mela,
07:53it is very important for them to see the Nag Vasuki.
07:56Only then you have complete Kumbh.
07:58And the arrangement here,
08:00we have never seen it before in our life.
08:02Today I am 62-63 years old.
08:04I have never seen it.
08:06Modi and Yogi ji are encouraging our Hindutva.
08:09And they are doing all the work.
08:11They should come.
08:13People should support them.
08:15Hindus should be united among Hindus.
08:17And all together,
08:19they are doing this for their own benefit.
08:21We should give them time.
08:23The specialty of the Nag Vasuki temple is that
08:26when the Manthan happened in Mandirachal,
08:30at the time of Amrit Manthan,
08:32Nag Vasuki had dedicated himself as a rope.
08:36Through this, the Nag Vasuki,
08:39it is believed that here,
08:41in the Mahakumbh,
08:43after taking bath,
08:45it is very important to see him.
08:48So that all your sins and sins are destroyed.
08:52To make the Mahakumbh powerful and divine,
08:55the Yogi government has built the main temples'
08:58Jirnoddhar and corridor.
09:01With this, devotees can visit the Nag Vasuki temple,
09:04Alop Shankari Shakti Peeth,
09:06Lete Hanumanji Mandir
09:08and Man Kameshwar Mandir.
09:11The development of these historical and spiritual places
09:14will not only encourage religious tourism,
09:17but will also establish the pride of Sanatan culture
09:20on the world stage.
