हर बार की तरह अच्छा लगा । बस, छोटी सी बात :- सत्यापित ऐतिहासिक कथाऐं तो प्रशंसनीय हैं ही, साथ में ध्यान रहे कि कवि भूषण के काव्य सौष्ठव, जैसे रस- निरूपण, आलंकारिक संयोजनों, पौराणिक सन्दर्भों , शब्दों के सटीक चयन आदि की चर्चा गौण न होने पाये । और अब तक तो उधर राजा छत्रसाल भी बुन्देलखण्ड भी पहुँचने वाले होंगे ना ?
आपका कोटि-कोटि धन्यवाद 🙏🙏 इस उपक्रम के अगले संस्करणों से रस-निरूपण एवम् अलंकार संयोजन पर पुनः ध्यान देना आरम्भ करेंगे । इस कड़ी में जो कवि भूषण का सवैय्या है उसमें बहुत से अलंकार हैं: कवि भूषण स्वयम् इस सवैय्ये के प्रमुख अर्थालंकार को उत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार बताते हुए उसके लक्षण लिखते हैं - "आन बात को आन में, जहँ सम्भावन होय । बस्तु, हेतु, फल-युत, कहत उत्प्रेक्षा है सोय ।।" १- पहली पंक्ति में - "दानव आयो दगा करि जावली दीह भयारो महामद भार्यो " 'द' वर्ण दो से अधिक बार आया है अतः वृत्यनुपरास अलंकार है। 'भ' वर्ण दो बार आया है अतः छेकानुपरास अलंकार है। 'दानव' , 'महामद' शब्द अफ़्ज़ल ख़ाँ की ओर संकेत करते हैं । 'महामद' हाथी के मद से जनित वहशीपने को भी इंगित करता है। इसलिए 'महामद भार्यो' अर्थालंकारों में से उत्प्रेक्षा का एक प्रकार है (हेतूत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार) २ - दूसरी पंक्ति में - "भूषन बाहुबली सरजा तेही, भेटिबे को निरसंक पधार्यो" 'भ' वर्ण दो बार आया है अतः शब्दालंकारों में से छेकानुपरास अलंकार है। शिवाजी महाराज को 'बाहुबाली सरजा" कहा गया है। यह कदाचित रूपक अलंकार है (आप ही इस पर थोड़ा प्रकाश डालने की कृपा करें) ३ - तीसरी पंक्ति में - "बीछू के घाय गिरे अफजल्लहि, ऊपर ही सिवराज निहार्यो " शृत्यानुपरास अलंकार है क्योंकि कण्ठ से जिन वर्णों का उच्चारण होता है - उनमें से कुछ - 'क', 'ग', 'घ', 'अ' वर्ण इस पंक्ति में हैं । यहाँ "ऊपर ही सिवराज निहार्यो " फलोत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार है। ऊपर होने को वर्चस्व बताया गया है लेकिन वास्तव में शिवाजी राजे ऊपर इसलिए थे क्योंकि अफ़्ज़ल ख़ाँ नीचे गिर गया था। ४ - चौथी पंक्ति में - "दाबि यों बैठो नरिंद अरिंदहि, मानो मयंद गयंद पछार्यो " "नरिंद" एवम् "अरिंद" - इन शब्दों का अंत में "-इंद" है एवम् ऐसे यह दो शब्द हैं - अतः यह भी छेकानुपरास अलंकार है। ऐसे ही "मयंद" और "गयंद" भी छेकांपरास अलंकार है। यहाँ पर अर्थालंकारों में उत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार है - विशेषकर 'वस्तूत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार'। उत्प्रेक्षा में प्रकृत (उपमेय) में अप्रकृत (उपमान) की सम्भावना की जाती है । उक्तलिखित दोहे में कवि भूषण भी यही कहते हैं - "आन बात को आन में, जहँ सम्भावन होय ।" उत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार के तीन प्रकार होते हैं - वस्तूत्प्रेक्षा , हेतूत्प्रेक्षा एवम् फलोत्प्रेक्षा । इन ही तीनों का उल्लेख कवि भूषण ने उक्तलिखित दोहे में किया है "बस्तु, हेतु, फल-युत, कहत उत्प्रेक्षा है सोय ।।" -- सादर, धीरज, कविताएँ सुनी अनसुनी 🙏🙏
Very nice presentation. The geographical location of relevant places adds extra aroma of your presentation. Geographical location helps the listener to know about the topography of the place. Usually the historical book devoid of location map and one needs to find out the places either from atlas or from internet. In many cases the names of historical places are changed so it is difficult to identify the places. Now regarding Afzal Khan, on the way to Pratapgarh he destroyed many temples and being corroborated by many historian (The History and Culture of the Indian people, Vol-7, Meenakshi Jain, Flight of deities and rebirth of temples). I am emphasizing on the same as now many of the historian propagate the theory that the Muslim ruler never destroyed any of the temple. Regarding the death of Afzal, Sivaji ripped open Khan's bowel by tiger claws. Ripping open the stomach may not be possible as Khan embraced Sivaji Maharaj. So attack must have came from back. (The History and Culture of the Indian people, Vol-7) About the tragic death of Sambhaji (eldest son of Jijabai), at least I am not aware of the same. Both of them (Sivaji and Sambhaji) were alive in 1648 as they attended the court of Bijapur. Sivaji met his step brother , Ekoji , ruler of Tanjavore, in 1677. So Sambhaji must have died between 1648 and 1677. Therefore, I request you to throw some light on the same.
Thank you very much, Sir 🙏. Below, I have made an attempt to respond to all 3 of your points: 1. Afzal Khan's route to Pratapgad - A straight route from Vijayapura (Bijapur) to Pratapgad Fort (or Par village where he stationed half his army) goes in a north-westerly direction via Satara. If one were to take a slightly circuitous route, one could add Pandharpur as well. However, Afzal Khan first went in a north-north-easterly direction to Tuljapur in order to attack the temple and devotees there. From Tuljapur he proceeded in a west-south-westerly direction to Pandharpur to desecrate the temple there. From here he proceeded west to Wai and then Par. Historians agree that Afzal Khan desecrated Ma Tulja Bhawani's temple at Tuljapur but do not agree on the dates because they feel that why would someone travel 150 KM extra? When there is a fanatic in question, the response should be 'why not?'. Poems and kimvadanti (tales passed on through generations) have always held the view that Vijayapura-Tuljapur-Pandharpur-Wai was the route. This is what I believe in as well. I have covered this explanation in this video: ua-cam.com/video/K38iTiyNmUE/v-deo.html 2. While we say "pet phaad diya" or "ripped open his bowels", I think that Shivaji Raje ruptured Afzal Khan's spleen. In addition to other functions, the spleen is a repository of blood which is stored as a contingency measure in case of hemorrhagic shock. This is where Shivaji Raje would have attacked - for maximum impact and to stupefy the victim and his bodyguards. I have detailed out these explanations in a video referred to in the paragraph above. 3. Shivaji Raje's elder brother Shri Sambhaji was killed somewhere between March and November 1654 CE. I have given the year of his passing in this video starting around 2:22 through 2:45. Needless to say, when Shivaji Raje's son was born on May 14, 1657 CE in the fort of Purandar, he was named in honor of this, now deceased, elder brother of Shivaji Maharaj. The real fun of history is the discovery of the truth which is often at the intersection of archeology, historical records, geography, geology (in case of ancient history), literature, and popular tales that are passed down through generations. It shall behoove our historians well if those in charge of crafting school books and books for administrators put in a more multi-dimensional rigor in documenting facts.

हर बार की तरह अच्छा लगा । बस, छोटी सी बात :- सत्यापित ऐतिहासिक कथाऐं तो प्रशंसनीय हैं ही, साथ में ध्यान रहे कि कवि भूषण के काव्य सौष्ठव, जैसे रस- निरूपण, आलंकारिक संयोजनों, पौराणिक सन्दर्भों , शब्दों के सटीक चयन आदि की चर्चा गौण न होने पाये ।
और अब तक तो उधर राजा छत्रसाल भी बुन्देलखण्ड भी पहुँचने वाले होंगे ना ?
आपका कोटि-कोटि धन्यवाद 🙏🙏 इस उपक्रम के अगले संस्करणों से रस-निरूपण एवम् अलंकार संयोजन पर पुनः ध्यान देना आरम्भ करेंगे । इस कड़ी में जो कवि भूषण का सवैय्या है उसमें बहुत से अलंकार हैं:
कवि भूषण स्वयम् इस सवैय्ये के प्रमुख अर्थालंकार को उत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार बताते हुए उसके लक्षण लिखते हैं -
"आन बात को आन में, जहँ सम्भावन होय ।
बस्तु, हेतु, फल-युत, कहत उत्प्रेक्षा है सोय ।।"
१- पहली पंक्ति में - "दानव आयो दगा करि जावली दीह भयारो महामद भार्यो " 'द' वर्ण दो से अधिक बार आया है अतः वृत्यनुपरास अलंकार है। 'भ' वर्ण दो बार आया है अतः छेकानुपरास अलंकार है। 'दानव' , 'महामद' शब्द अफ़्ज़ल ख़ाँ की ओर संकेत करते हैं । 'महामद' हाथी के मद से जनित वहशीपने को भी इंगित करता है। इसलिए 'महामद भार्यो' अर्थालंकारों में से उत्प्रेक्षा का एक प्रकार है (हेतूत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार)
२ - दूसरी पंक्ति में - "भूषन बाहुबली सरजा तेही, भेटिबे को निरसंक पधार्यो" 'भ' वर्ण दो बार आया है अतः शब्दालंकारों में से छेकानुपरास अलंकार है। शिवाजी महाराज को 'बाहुबाली सरजा" कहा गया है। यह कदाचित रूपक अलंकार है (आप ही इस पर थोड़ा प्रकाश डालने की कृपा करें)
३ - तीसरी पंक्ति में - "बीछू के घाय गिरे अफजल्लहि, ऊपर ही सिवराज निहार्यो " शृत्यानुपरास अलंकार है क्योंकि कण्ठ से जिन वर्णों का उच्चारण होता है - उनमें से कुछ - 'क', 'ग', 'घ', 'अ' वर्ण इस पंक्ति में हैं । यहाँ "ऊपर ही सिवराज निहार्यो " फलोत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार है। ऊपर होने को वर्चस्व बताया गया है लेकिन वास्तव में शिवाजी राजे ऊपर इसलिए थे क्योंकि अफ़्ज़ल ख़ाँ नीचे गिर गया था।
४ - चौथी पंक्ति में - "दाबि यों बैठो नरिंद अरिंदहि, मानो मयंद गयंद पछार्यो " "नरिंद" एवम् "अरिंद" - इन शब्दों का अंत में "-इंद" है एवम् ऐसे यह दो शब्द हैं - अतः यह भी छेकानुपरास अलंकार है। ऐसे ही "मयंद" और "गयंद" भी छेकांपरास अलंकार है। यहाँ पर अर्थालंकारों में उत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार है - विशेषकर 'वस्तूत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार'। उत्प्रेक्षा में प्रकृत (उपमेय) में अप्रकृत (उपमान) की सम्भावना की जाती है । उक्तलिखित दोहे में कवि भूषण भी यही कहते हैं - "आन बात को आन में, जहँ सम्भावन होय ।"
उत्प्रेक्षा अलंकार के तीन प्रकार होते हैं - वस्तूत्प्रेक्षा , हेतूत्प्रेक्षा एवम् फलोत्प्रेक्षा । इन ही तीनों का उल्लेख कवि भूषण ने उक्तलिखित दोहे में किया है "बस्तु, हेतु, फल-युत, कहत उत्प्रेक्षा है सोय ।।"
