About Pajaka kshetra

 Pajaka kshetra, is the holy place located at the south east of Udupi. This place is the birth place of jagadguru shree Madhwacarya. The holy Tirupati is the first incarnation of lord Hanuman. The Badri is the second incarnation of lord Vayu Deva. The holy Pajaka Kshetra is the third incarnation of Acharya Madhwa. A God room  can be found at the center of the house.

Aksarabhyasa Stone.

 At the left of the god room lies a Tulasi Vrindavan. In front of it, a Large Stone slab can be seen. The Slab is known as Aksarabhyasa stone. It is believed as Madwacarya's Father Madhyageha initiated his son some Vedas. 

The Holy Pond .

The holy pond , which is also known as Madwacarya's bathing pond, is constructed outside the house [Name -Vasudeva theertha]. Sri Madhwacarya used to take bath in four theerthas,Parashurama theertha, Dhanush theertha, Baana theertha and Gadha theertha.  

 

The Slab Madhwacarya covered for the milk and curd vessels.

Small boy Madhwacarya was one day playing. His mother asked him to cover the milk and curd vessels while she go out. Acharya Madhwa nodded. After some time, he went over to the kitchen, and instead of covering the vessels with plates, he covered the vessels with very heavy slab. 

The Place where Madhwacarya killed Demon Maniman

It appears that a Asura named Maniman was eager and vowed to kill Madhwacarya. Maniman even bit the lord. But child Madhwacarya was not hurt at all. He trampled and pressed down Asura Maniman's head at the cement area behind the god room.

Footprints of lord sri Madhwacarya.

When he just killed Maniman, his mom called him for lunch. So, he took a giant leap and went to his mom. The footprints of the lord when he leapt is near the place where he killed Maniman.

My majesty, we should never make a Sin by loading huge amount of weight on a poor donkey, so I am carrying it, replied the old man! Birbal found the first fool. First fool! 

He kept on walking, he saw another man. He was wearing a bag with all the books in his hand. Birbal questioned, hey! you can keep your books in your bag, isnt it? The man replied, Sir, it hurts for the bag to carry a heavy load of books! birbal smiled, he found the Second fool! 

He came across another old man examining the ground. Hey you old man! why are you examining the ground? Birbal questioned.. 

The old man started replying, Oh! my ring is lost thats why I am looking the ground. It was lost when I was sitting under the Tree. Birbal asked, you could search under the tree isnt it? The man gapped and replied, it is dark there and I cant see anything, hence I am searching here. Birbal found the third fool!! 

He had only found 3 fools, by then he had a ready answer. He told about the three fools to Akbar. 

Akbar questioned him, where are the other two fools? Birbal replied smiling, Sir! I am the fourth foolish man because I agreed to foolish order given by my majesty. You are the fifth fool to give out a mad order!

Sita and the foolish thief!

Sita's lazy husband annoyed her so much, she belong to a poor family. She was working hard in the field like a Donkey, tending in a small dry piece of land. 

While her husband snored happily at home. One nice morning, Sita was working in the land, a thin man with a big moustache appeared strangely. He was a thief!😯 He wanted to steal money that was given to her as a Donation from the nearby Temple along with the ornaments. 

Stranger said meekly, Sister! why are you working hard in this barren land. I will give you 20 thousand sell it to me. He knows that the way to the temple to dig his way from Sita land. Sita, who was farming lifted her eye brows. She understood that she was being tricked! so tried to create a story. 

Brother, I cannot sell it to you said Sita to that stranger, because this is my family farm. And, I know the history that deep below the ground lies treasure. I am not doing farming even now. But just looking the buried diamonds. Hearing that the strange thief planned to rob the diamonds from the ground. 

In the midnight, the thief began to execute his plan. When dawn broke he ran and left the village. When Sita was very lucky that he had dug the farm. She only needed this to happen to sow the seeds. She happily started to sow with her clever idea. 

Few months later, she got the money from the cultivation land. The thief returned back to the village. He came to Sita's house. No one could identify, him he thought. but as soon as he came in Sita knew who he was! she decided to trick him to teach a lesson.  The thief innocently said to Sita husband, sir. I am a traveler, I don't know anyone here. I request for a night shelter her. Her husband agreed to this request. Few minutes later Sita went to her room with her husband. She spoke in a high Pitch so that the thief could also hear her.

Dear husband, you know that your aunty will be alone in her house. You also know that she is scared of darkness. So lets go to her house for a night stay. She lowered her tone a little and spoke, don't worry about the jewels I have kept them on the holes inside the walls, none could trace it. They both came out and told the thief, hey! I have cooked some food and water you could have it and sleep in the veranda. The house will be locked and we will return back tomorrow morning. They went the place. 

The thief, who had overheard the conversation could not believe his luck, he thought. He tapped, screeched, scratched and broke the wall. When morning rose he could not find anything and ran away from the place.' See what this guy has made" wailed Sita's husband. Leave it! I just planned to break the walls to remodel the house. He just helped us, that's all, Sita replied smiling! 😊

Few months later, the thief was burning to take the revenge. He dressed like a bangle seller and came to the village again. Sita saw and identified him again, she murmured to herself in front of the seller. My dear how dare the thief broke my walls! Ya! my God! I have kept all the jewels in the forest in the top of the tree. At once the thief started to search for the jewels! 

How foolish the thief is! and how intelligent Sita was!

Once in king Amit's Kingdom, Two blind boys and a brahmin came running in the court. The brahmin cried' My lord, I have nothing to feed my young boys . They need to head a happy life. If you don't mine, can you give me 5 pieces of gold coins ? I will start my very own business. I will surely return your money next year.' The king took pity on the two  sons and the brahmin. So, he asked " Okay my brahmacharya, but what will I do if you did not return my money?" The brahmin replied' Sir if I did not return your money, I will give my sons to you now. They have special abilities.

 

The younger one can find the characteristic of a horse. The elder one can find the type of an ornaments' Kind Amit ordered his men to give the brahmin what he asked for. The brahmin went away giving his sons to the king. Next day, there was a horse seller. The king wanted a horse. But the king remembered the younger son .

 

He asked the younger son that what the horse would do. The son opened up with a start.' Your honor, This horse is a uncontrol - able horse .' King Amit wanted to test it out. So, he made a man sit on the horse. All of the sudden, the man was throwed up by the horse. After some months later, a jeweler came walking in the quay.

 

The king called for the elder son he humbly bowed his head and said "Your Majesty, this ornament is cursed. The man who touches it would immediately die. King  Amit asked the jeweler if it was true. He said 'Yes, it is true". The King appreciated the two for there clearness. A year passed, the Brahmin returned to the court, successfully. The king asked that the brahmin himself had anything special abilities. He said that he had. It was that he can find anyone's past. The King wanted to know his past. "Sir, thought you were the king, your father has been a robber.' The king burst out in anger. "How dare you tell that?' He screamed. He ordered his men to put the three to death.

 

                                                                                ~

Grandma questioned, "who is responsible for the three's death?' Medha answered, "It was the brahmin's. Because, he should not had predicted the past in that way". Even Maya was hearing Grandma's story!!!...

The King realized his mistake. He apologized to Yusuf and sent him home with a bag of gold coins.

What I dream to be - Poem

 

What I dream to be

but nothing happened to me

I want to be a  writer

and Sun looks brighter

which has bad thought

and I had to fought

I will pray to God

and he will bless me O Lord!

I want to change the Earth

so be good from Birth

Water comes from Tube

I want a rubix cube

Get me the water from fridge

Walk carful on the bridge

In the road i was going

That i was getting boring
