💬 Discussion Why has all the festival posts stopped? Is this a temple sub now?

Post image
3 Upvotes

This was one of the only Indian subs where people could be introduced to the variety of festivals people celebrate in this country of ours. I myself have learnt about many regional festivals from other parts of the country that I never knew about. Poeple would post original pictures from their homes celebrating the festivals but where have all those posts gone and why have they stopped? This sub is getting spammed daily with just temple videos which doesn't even make sense for a sub like this or doesn't even fall under the posting rules of the sub. What are the moderators even doing?

Can we please stop the daily spamming with the same temple videos posted again and again and get back to celebrating different festivals in this country? This sub now looks like a random facebook page than anything else.

Citizens of Indore city and other nearby cities have great faith in the Khajrana temple. This temple was made by Ahilyabai Holkar, the brave Maratha queen. This is an important place of Hindus.

Khajrana Ganesha Temple was constructed by Rani Ahilyabai Holkar. This temple is one of the famous Hindu temples in India. Mostly wednesday and sunday huge people will come to this temple for offering prayers. As per a local belief, all the wishes of the devotees are fulfilled, once they worship in this temple. The main festival of this temple is vinayak chathurthi and was held in grand manner in the month of August and september

The temple is taken over by the government. The temple is managed by the Bhatt family. It is believed that in order to safe guard the idol from Aurangzeb, the idol was hidden in a well and in 1735, it was taken out from the well and a temple was established in 1735 by Ahilyabai Holkar belonging to the Holkar dynasty of the Maratha Empire.

The temple has developed a lot over the years. It has developed from a small hut to a huge temple and the most revered shrine in the city. There are regular donation of gold, diamonds and other precious jewels at the temple.The gate and the outer wall of the Garbhagriha is made of silver and different moods and festivals are depicted on it. The eyes of the deity are made of diamonds which were donated by a business man of Indore. The upper wall of the Garbhagriha is made of silver.

Some fascinating and untold stories about Our Banke Bihari temple, Vrindavan..

Hare Radha Krishna ji 🪈 🕉️ 🪔

The beautiful three-bend posture...Banke ...is associated with Krishna's enchanting, playful form as the divine flute player.

Tradition connects the deity's appearance with the devotion and music of the saint Swami Haridas, whose intense devotion is believed to have revealed the divine form.

Banke Bihari Ji is regarded in a deeply intimate Nikunja mood, and the worship tradition emphasizes a gentle, personal atmosphere rather than loud ritual sound.

Unlike many temples, devotees do not continuously gaze at Banke Bihari Ji. The jhanki or brief दर्शन tradition is deeply connected with the belief that the Lord's captivating gaze is extraordinarily powerful.

According to temple tradition, the divine form manifested in the sacred atmosphere of Nidhivan, one of Vrindavan's most mysterious and revered places.

🌷🌷युगल किशोर धाम, पन्ना ..... बुंदेलखंड की कृष्ण-भक्ति का अनोखा केंद्र🌹🌹

युगल किशोर मंदिर पन्ना का एक अत्यंत महत्वपूर्ण कृष्ण मंदिर है, जो बुंदेलखंड की धार्मिक और सांस्कृतिक परंपरा में विशेष स्थान रखता है.

यहाँ भगवान श्रीकृष्ण को “युगल किशोर” स्वरूप में राधा जी के साथ पूजा जाता है।

मंदिर की परंपरा पन्ना के राजघराने और बुंदेला इतिहास से भी जुड़ी हुई मानी जाती है।

मंदिर में कृष्ण की बाल एवं किशोर लीला का भाव प्रमुख है, इसलिए यहाँ की भक्ति में वात्सल्य और माधुर्य दोनों दिखाई देते हैं।

पन्ना का यह मंदिर सामान्य कृष्ण मंदिरों से कुछ अलग है क्योंकि यहाँ की पूजा-पद्धति में बुंदेली लोक-परंपराओं की भी झलक मिलती है।

जन्माष्टमी और कृष्ण से जुड़े अन्य पर्वों पर मंदिर विशेष रूप से जीवंत हो उठता है।

स्थानीय श्रद्धा में युगल किशोर जी को पन्ना के आराध्य देव के रूप में विशेष सम्मान प्राप्त है।

मंदिर से जुड़ी कथाओं में श्रीकृष्ण की मूर्ति के पन्ना आगमन और उसके पीछे की दिव्य घटनाओं के कई लोक-प्रचलित संस्करण मिलते हैं।

एक रोचक लोककथा...🕉️

पन्ना के युगल किशोर जी के बारे में एक सुंदर मान्यता है कि भगवान केवल पूजा स्वीकार करने वाले देवता नहीं, बल्कि भक्त के साथ व्यक्तिगत संबंध रखने वाले किशोर कृष्ण हैं। इसी कारण यहाँ भक्ति में औपचारिकता से अधिक अपनापन दिखाई देता है।

एक खास बात: पन्ना को लोग प्रायः हीरों की नगरी और बुंदेला इतिहास से जोड़ते हैं, लेकिन इसी शहर में कृष्ण-भक्ति की एक ऐसी धारा भी बहती है जिसकी चर्चा अपेक्षाकृत कम होती है।

🕉️ श्रीनाथजी, नाथद्वारा की कथा केवल “मूर्ति को वृंदावन से नाथद्वारा लाया गया” इतनी भर नहीं है। इसके पीछे कई ऐसी कथाएँ हैं जो सामान्यतः कम सुनाई जाती हैं। इनमें इतिहास और पुष्टिमार्गीय परंपरा...दोनों को अलग-अलग समझना उचित है।

🍃गाय रोज़ अपना दूध स्वयं अर्पित करती थी

परंपरा के अनुसार गोवर्धन पर्वत पर एक गाय प्रतिदिन एक विशेष स्थान पर जाकर अपना दूध धरती पर गिरा देती थी। उसके मालिक को आश्चर्य हुआ कि गाय दूध क्यों नहीं देती। पीछा करने पर रहस्य खुला...वह दूध एक उभरी हुई श्याम शिला पर अर्पित कर रही थी। इसी से श्रीनाथजी के प्राकट्य की कथा जुड़ी है।

🍃श्रीनाथजी का पूरा स्वरूप एक साथ प्रकट नहीं हुआ

एक रोचक परंपरा यह कहती है कि पहले बायाँ उठा हुआ हाथ दिखाई दिया...वही हाथ जो गोवर्धन धारण करने का संकेत देता है। बाद में मुखारविंद सहित स्वरूप क्रमशः प्रकट हुआ। इसलिए श्रीनाथजी की मूर्ति में उठा हुआ बायाँ हाथ इतना महत्वपूर्ण है।

🍃नाथद्वारा जाने का निर्णय पहले ही हो चुका था

पुष्टिमार्गीय परंपरा में एक अत्यंत सुंदर कथा मिलती है कि श्री गुसाईंजी ने मेवाड़ के सिंहाड़ स्थान को देखकर कहा था कि भविष्य में श्रीनाथजी यहाँ निवास करेंगे। बाद में श्रीनाथजी के मेवाड़ आने की कथा इसी भविष्यवाणी से जोड़ी जाती है।

🍃असली “निर्णय” मनुष्य ने नहीं लिया....रथ ने लिया

जब श्रीनाथजी को सुरक्षित स्थान पर ले जाया जा रहा था, सिंहाड़ गाँव के पास रथ के पहिए कीचड़ में धँस गए और आगे नहीं बढ़े। साथ चल रहे सेवकों ने इसे संकेत माना कि श्रीनाथजी यहीं निवास करना चाहते हैं। यही स्थान आगे चलकर नाथद्वारा बना। ऐतिहासिक स्रोत भी सिंहाड़ गाँव और रथ के रुकने की परंपरा का उल्लेख करते हैं।

जय श्री श्रीनाथ जी 🌼🪔🌼🕉️🫸🏻🫷🏻🌷🌷🌹🌹🌷🌹🌷🌷🌹🌹🫸🏻🫷🏻
