This house is 500 years old. ‎‎As they say, the house was built with the Castle (the same time). ‎‎ ‎‎The Castle was built during daytime and the house was built at night. ‎‎ ‎‎There were three houses in Naggar. ‎‎ ‎‎(They) have built these houses in one time. ‎‎ ‎‎And.. Then when the last stone (of the house) has to be fixed. The one who made it he died here. ‎‎ ‎‎And when he was dying then he said that you have to worship me. ‎‎Then we worship him as a god. ‎‎And now we worship him. ‎‎ ‎‎500 years ago rajas and the like lived here. ‎‎They made people work day and night, they were concerned only about their work. ‎‎This is a 500 years old house. Then that died the builder day and night working. ‎‎And now we worship him. ‎‎The house is broken now. ‎‎It is broken by the rain (?). ‎‎Everyone was telling to me, break this house and build the new one. ‎‎But I think that I will repair it again one day. ‎‎I will build it in a good way. ‎‎After that, people will come from somewhere and will learn, (I) will have to teach them how. ‎‎How they had lived, how they had eat. ‎‎ ‎‎‎Then I will save it in ancient style. ‎‎And then the people will like it.

Namaskar, my name is Ranvir Acharya. ‎ ‎‎I am a resident of Naggar. ‎ ‎‎Today I want to take you to the Naggar.‎ ‎‎Today I will tell you the story of our great goddess.‎ ‎‎Her name in Hindi is Tripura Sundari.‎ ‎‎Mata Tripura who is called Tripura Sundari.‎ ‎‎We are from Acharya kindred.‎ ‎‎And we have been living here for a long time.‎ ‎‎Our ancestors have come long ago.‎ ‎‎Our elders told us these very old stories.‎ ‎‎We are telling you them.‎ ‎‎We also heard them, I mean.‎ ‎‎How much truth is in them, how much lie, I cannot say for sure.‎ ‎‎But there is a thing we have heard from our elders.‎ ‎‎I am telling it to you today.‎ ‎‎And our elders lived, when our father was born.‎ ‎‎We saw our father, we didn’t see our grandfater (parternal), our father told us many good things about our grandfather.‎ ‎‎We saw our uncle (father’s brother).‎ ‎‎Our uncle is alive now.‎ ‎‎Our father is no more.‎ ‎‎What he has told us, that I am telling you.‎ ‎‎And all this I heard from our father, uncle and village people.‎ ‎‎This I will tell you all.‎ ‎‎And, how they say, as much as I can know.‎ ‎‎That I can tell, and if I had it wrong or, how to say, anything else, then I ask you to excuse me.‎ ‎‎Then listen what I heard.‎ ‎‎Now I begin.‎ ‎‎Look at our mata rani Tripura.‎ ‎‎We have been this devi’s purohits for a long time.‎ ‎‎People say, village people say, that she called us from another place especially to be purohits.‎ ‎‎I mean in order to put us to be devi’s purohits.‎ ‎‎And then we came here.‎ ‎‎And we begin to work as purohits here.‎ ‎‎Since we became purohits, since our ancestors, from generation to generation we serve as purohits of the devi.‎ ‎‎Till now we have been doing it.‎ ‎‎And we always have a big blessing on us.‎ ‎‎I mean, she didn’t give us any drawbacks.‎ ‎‎And she didn’t give suffering and pain.‎ ‎‎Only minor, everybody has it in life, they say.‎ ‎‎Now she called us here and then have got a virtuous goal of giving a good direction.‎ ‎‎We will speak well, tell well, do well.‎ ‎‎Now you all came here to listen, so our goal is to tell correctly, tell completely correctly.‎ ‎‎As much as we know.‎ ‎‎And, how they say, now what I heard about the devi. ‎‎That is as they say, search for mata Tripura Sundari.‎ ‎‎It was that way.‎ ‎‎Once, how they say, a shepherd grazing cows. ‎ ‎‎This shepherd went to walk around Sarisoha.‎ ‎‎He used to graze cows every day that way.‎ ‎‎Every day he used to go to graze cows like that.‎ ‎‎Every day he went there to graze cows.‎ ‎‎And one of his cows, that gave good milk, it went.‎ ‎‎And milk poured out of its udder by itself.‎ ‎‎I mean poured out by itself, nobody milks it.‎ ‎‎Nobody is doing anything.‎ ‎‎It poured on one stone.‎ ‎‎Every day the cow went that way and every day it came back having thrown out the milk.‎ ‎‎I mean her milk poured out by itself.‎ ‎‎Such caw went away every day.‎ ‎‎And one day that shepherd thought, I don’t know where that cow goes.‎ ‎‎Today I will look.‎ ‎‎It does not obey.‎ ‎‎It keeps going.‎ ‎‎And then he went after it, the cow.‎ ‎‎He went and saw, that it happens there, happens by itself.‎ ‎‎He called all the village people.‎ ‎‎He told, look what was happening.‎ ‎‎There is a statue of a god, the cow pours out the milk at it.‎ ‎‎And this statue is drinking milk or what it is doing, hey.‎ ‎‎So it happens, the cow stands here and pours out the milk at it.‎ ‎‎He said, it throws milk there.‎ ‎‎The village people told, hey, there is something, let’s ask then.‎ ‎‎There is a local custom.‎ ‎‎Something seems, like, well, there are deities or something there.‎ ‎‎Then they ask the deity.‎ ‎‎Hey, what is it, is it good or bad.‎ ‎‎That our local people have such custom.‎ ‎‎When, hey, there is something.‎ ‎‎It happens that people saw something new.‎ ‎‎First of all, they ask gods, ask deities permission.‎ ‎‎I mean, without asking the deities, people don’t do anything here.‎ ‎‎First of all, they obey gods’ will.‎ ‎‎Somebody has deities at home.‎ ‎‎Somebody has deities outside (of home).‎ ‎‎Somebody has deities in the temple.‎ ‎‎They go to gods, asking, hey, gods, I am doing like this.‎ ‎‎Then tell.‎ ‎‎Then so.‎ ‎‎So they also asked, hey, god, what is it?‎ ‎‎Why is this happening?‎ ‎‎Why does this cow pour out milk here?‎ ‎‎Why does it go there every day?‎ ‎‎There is something here.‎ ‎‎And then mata Tripura Sundari said.‎ ‎‎Gurs shake in this place.‎ ‎‎The deities are not seen.‎ ‎‎Deities were not visible neither to us, nor to anybody else.‎ ‎‎May be they are visible to somebody, I don’t know.‎ ‎‎As much as I heard, (the gods) speak by means of others.‎ ‎‎And we saw ourselves that they speak by means of others, there is a gur (shaman).‎ ‎‎There is a poojari or some special deulus, a devi comes into them.‎ ‎‎That one came, as they say.‎ ‎‎Into the deulu, into the special one among the deulu.‎ ‎‎Into the gur, or I don’t know who.‎ ‎‎I wasn’t told as much.‎ ‎‎I say what I heard.‎ ‎‎Then the dewi came and she said, it was I.‎ ‎‎Mata Tripura Sundari in a form of a child.‎ ‎‎In a child form.‎ ‎‎I am here for many years, you will have to make pooja for me.‎ ‎‎And this cow is coming for (ritual) cleanup.‎ ‎‎It cleans me up by her milk.‎ ‎‎She have told everything.‎ ‎‎Then the village people began to worship the great goddess.‎ ‎‎Great dewi of Naggar.‎ ‎‎We worship the great goddess not only here.‎ ‎‎In three places people respect her.‎ ‎‎Here, at great dewi’s place in Mashara, at the great dewi, and in Banon also.‎ ‎‎One in Sita’s form, one in Kali’s form and this one in a child form.‎ ‎‎The incarnation in a child form is a calm incarnation, absolutely calm.‎ ‎‎Nothing happens there.‎ ‎‎She doesn’t speak, does it in silence, looks after everybody, does good things.‎ ‎‎So much information I have about the great goddess.‎ ‎‎We go with deiteis, make deuli.‎ ‎‎In deulis she also stays calm.‎ ‎‎Not like others, well, we saw many different things.‎ ‎‎Everything with peace.‎ ‎‎But she has so much power, that all the deities, I mean, come to ask her in this area.‎ ‎‎They tell so and so.‎ ‎‎Because she is the eldest sister.‎ ‎‎There are seven sisters here, they say.‎ ‎‎There are seven her sisters in this area.‎ ‎‎She was the eldest sister.‎ ‎‎That’s why everybody worships her and we are her purohits.‎ ‎‎I was told this story and I told you.‎ ‎‎As much as I know.‎ ‎‎Now we read mantras here and the like, once a year there are some things.‎ ‎‎There is a mantra reading, the devi goes to Dussehra.‎ ‎‎And, as they say, people go to bhoti.‎ ‎‎There are a lot of customs for her, feast happens, feast happens in May.‎ ‎‎She goes to the feast.‎ ‎‎And when our dewi goes to Dussehra.‎ ‎‎There are three devis.‎ ‎‎Devi of Bhekli, and, as they say, Hadimba and the great devi.‎ ‎‎They are the most necessary.‎ ‎‎I mean, without them, Dussehra won’t happen, they say. ‎ ‎‎And when there is a need to do something, some thing, then Hadimba, Bhekli devi, first of all everybody ask her.‎ ‎‎It is necessary she would be there that time.‎ ‎‎Dussehra is such a big feast, but if she (the goddess) hasn’t come, then they won’t be able to celebrate.‎ ‎‎I mean, it is necessary for her to be, and raja. ‎‎And even for raja, for Maheshvar, she is a clan deity.‎ ‎‎So much she is respected in Naggar and the whole Kullu.‎ ‎‎Because she is the greatest goddess of Naggar and Kullu.‎ ‎‎Everybody comes, when they sit at Jagatipatt, first of all they go to her.‎ ‎‎I mean she is asked at any Puts ceremony.‎ ‎‎There is a service, some big decision in it, imagine.‎ ‎‎In Kullu and Manali people ask the great goddess first of all.‎ ‎‎Why so, because she is the leader of all.‎ ‎‎In our place the greatest.‎ ‎‎In our Kullu Manali, I don’t know the rest, there must be some great gods in the world. ‎ ‎‎But whatever is there for us is our mata Tripura Sundari.‎ ‎‎So much I know, namaskar, thank you.

There are special cooks for our marriages and festivals who cook this food. They are brahmans, and they are also called pandits. There are some reasons why they wear dhoti and jeneu. This jeneu is described in detail in our Vedas.Who wears this jeneu. He has to keep discipline. Those men who wear jeneu they are not allowed to take food here and there. For this most of time he cooks the food himself. That means dhoti and jeneu are considered holy (spiritual). For this while cooking food pandit is wearing pula which is made from peddygrass, that were homemade in old times. Second thing is which food is in the pots (dif. kinds) is being cooked.

In one village the brahmin Shambhu, his wife and their tame mongoose lived. ‎After a while, a child was born to Shambhu’s wife. ‎Every day, Shambhu’s wife went to the river to fetch water. ‎They had to go to the river to get water in order to do housework ‎She used to put the mongoose to look after her child ‎The mongoose was so good, he looked after the baby very well. ‎Shambhu and his wife used to believe him very much. ‎Once someone came to Shambhu’s house and his wife said to him: I am going to fetch water, and our son is sleeping. ‎Look after him well until I come back. ‎And leaving him, she left. ‎When she left, a rich man came to Shambhu’s house and said, “Let’s go to my home and eat” ‎He said, “It’s my son’s birthday and you have to come and eat”. ‎He said, “Okay, I’ll go,” he left, he put his son next to the mongoose for him to look after. ‎And then that mongoose, he … the child was put in the cradle. ‎Then he sat down by the cradle and stayed there to sleep. ‎After a while, the mongoose saw a black snake coming there, a large black snake coming up. ‎He realized that the snake should not eat the child, so he sat next to the child. ‎Then the snake saw that there was a mongoose. ‎And she approached him and began to fight him. ‎Because mongooses and snakes are very big enemies. ‎The mongoose killed the snake, finished it off. ‎Mongoose said that … after he killed her. ‎He went out the door and looked out for his owner, Shambhu’s wife. ‎And when Shambhu’s wife returned home, she saw that there was blood in his mouth, on his paws, on everything, on his face. ‎She said, oh, what did he do, she began to cry a lot. ‎She thought “He ate my son, oh, he killed my son”. ‎She said “You are not worthy for me to consider you my son, to love you”. ‎You are now not worthy to stay alive. ‎And she immediately … a water pot, she threw it at the mongoose. ‎This pot hit a mongoose and he died. ‎Then Shambhu’s wife entered the house. ‎And there she saw that the child was sleeping very well. ‎And it was the snake’s blood that came out. ‎Then she came closer and saw everything well. ‎Then she saw that, oh, I did a very wrong thing. ‎Then Shambhu also returned after lunch. ‎They both began to watch, and then his wife began to cry. ‎He said what was the reason for this, she said that I thought that this mongoose ate our child. ‎But he didn’t eat, he killed the snake. ‎Because of killing that snake, how to say. ‎Her blood drained out, all, how to say. ‎Then she said, then she thought she made a big mistake, he saved my son. ‎I didn’t think that he killed a snake to save my son. ‎But I did a very stupid thing. ‎I killed a mongoose, poor thing. ‎Therefore it is said that first think, then act.

I have two children, daughter is older, son is younger. She studies in 10 class and the son goes to the nursery class. Both of them go to KVS in Kullu. My daughter studies in 10. And my son is in nursery. They go to English-midiгm school. I made this decision because the time when I used to study there were no English schools. And sometimes it seems like my English is not very good because of which I thought that my children should go to English school. They should get good education. They must achieve good in life and the drawbacks that we have must not remain within them. Because of which I sent them to Kullu valley school. Although government schools are not bad as we have also studied there. But in today’s time, most of the people send their kids to Eng-med schools. Due to this I also sent my kids to K. V. In today’s world the standards of school and education are very high unlike the old times when there were only government schools and only wards of rich people used to go to the schools. But today everybody has money because of which everybody is teaching their children in good schools. The parents wish that their children become good as a person, get good education and good ambiance for studying. The drawback the native people have like these days the people from Delhi come or people from big cities, they all speak English. But here most of the people don’t know how to speak English. Probably, this is the only reason why people send their children to good schools or wish their children to go to good schools. Which is also a very good thing. And I wish that my children together with being good also follow the culture. Probably I cannot say much but I can try telling my kids to study subjects like Sanskrit together with the other subjects. In the coming time like local languages losing its value same is the case with Sanskrit. I wish that all kids remain attached to the culture and local language.

This is Nag temple.‎ ‎‎It is a very ancient temple.‎ ‎‎This is Shesh Nag’s temple.‎ ‎‎This temple was built five years ago.‎ ‎‎I am a local gur (shaman).‎ ‎‎My name is Rakesh.‎ ‎‎I also became a gur three and a half years ago.‎ ‎‎The manager of the temple is Rajender Acharya.‎ ‎‎He is a local manager.‎ ‎‎Poojari Purushottam Sharma, he is a local poojari.‎ ‎‎Every day pooja takes place here.‎ ‎‎Only once in the morning pooja takes place here.‎ ‎‎Every Sunday “puts” ceremony also takes place here.‎ ‎‎Those who come here they go away having become well.‎ ‎‎There is a god’s lake here.‎ ‎‎There is also water here.‎ ‎‎Those who drink this water, all their pain go away here.‎ ‎‎Nag god has a birthday in April here.‎ ‎‎Coming here poojas take place first.‎ ‎‎After that gur makes a speech, where he went.‎ ‎‎He tells everything about his year, what he..‎ ‎‎Where he went, what is going to be, whether flood or disaster or rain or snow is going to come.‎ ‎‎Good news, bad news – he tells everything.

Thawa, Thawa is a god Krishna’s temple.‎ ‎‎This Krishna temple is five thousand years old.‎ ‎‎There is Krishna temple up there that is five thousand years old.‎ ‎‎Pandavas have built it.‎ ‎‎Then Pandavas, how to say, they were in…‎ ‎‎In a forest exile they were.‎ ‎‎When they were in a forest exile, that is, Pandavas and Kauravas were two (groups of) brothers.‎ ‎‎Kauravas had one hundred sons.‎ ‎‎While Pandavas had five.‎ ‎‎Then after that Kauravas wanted to rule their kingdom.‎ ‎‎Then they were in great majority, later there was a fight and so on.‎ ‎‎Then they sent poor Pandavas to the forest exile, from that time this temple was built atop.‎ ‎‎Then there was god Krishna, their friend, who was like a friend of Arjun, wasn’t he.‎ ‎‎There was also Arjuna, he walked together, and god Krishna came also.‎ ‎‎Then when they came to Thawa‎ ‎‎Krishna told that this is a very good place, I would like to sit here.‎ ‎‎Then Krishna sat down there.‎ ‎‎Arjuna was his good friend, he told, I want to sit with you also.‎ ‎‎Here, because you are here, then there was a tree.‎ ‎‎How to say which…‎ ‎‎A gangaru tree in front.‎ ‎‎That gangaru tree, we count it as Arjuna.‎ ‎‎Then this Arjuna’s tree, this is like Arjuna, as say, this gangaru tree.‎ ‎‎It stays bright green until god Krishna is here.‎ ‎‎When Krishna gets upset and goes away, it will dry out.‎ ‎‎Then it will be and this is will be the sign, that the god is not here anymore.‎ ‎‎Now he is there.‎ ‎‎That is a small local story.‎ ‎‎I told briefly, right?‎ ‎‎We put English in between.‎ ‎‎But I told everything.‎ ‎‎My father is a poojari there.‎ ‎‎Our kindred was there in between.‎ ‎‎From generation to generation our kindred was there.‎ ‎‎Then probably in between some of our grandfathers.‎ ‎‎He stopped to make pooja, then somebody else came there.‎ ‎‎My father came there after four or five generations,‎ ‎‎That were five generations, meaning after five generations.‎ ‎‎Then after that he came, he was that time twelve years old.‎ ‎‎He looked at the feast up there on the square Sarisoha.‎ ‎‎Then they took him up there and say you must make pooja to Krishna.‎ ‎‎Since then my father is there.‎ ‎‎Then we were born and grew up there.‎ ‎‎Then we had marriage ceremonies, it is like that.‎ ‎‎And now my other systems, so much enough for today.‎ ‎‎Tomorrow we will see some more secrets.‎ ‎‎It is enough for today, ok?

They came here for rest.‎ ‎‎Then after they had had rest they said in the evening.‎ ‎‎Yudhishthira ji (told), this time we shall take help of some friendly raja. ‎ ‎‎Draupadi ji told, nobody can help us.‎ ‎‎[She told – Hin] we are in exile in the forest.‎ ‎‎If Duryodhana knows, we will spend here twelve years more.‎ ‎‎Then we won’t take any raja’s help in this.‎ ‎‎Then she say, if we take the help.‎ ‎‎We will take god Krishna’s help, who protected me at the big meeting.‎ ‎‎He made my clothes bigger.‎ ‎‎Then Pandaws agreed, that this is the right speech.‎ ‎‎Then they remembered the god and then the god ji appeared.‎ ‎‎The god released them from all their sufferings.‎ ‎‎He said, I am with you, we have little time, resist him (Duryodhana).‎ ‎‎The victory will be yours, I am by your side.‎ ‎‎I am on the side of truth, the truth is yours, not lies, lies are on the Duryodhana’s side. ‎ ‎‎[That’s why – Hin] Duryodhana will be distroyed and the victory will be yours.‎ ‎‎Then he told I has done my job, now I am going to disappear and he began to disappear.‎ ‎‎Then Draupadi ji told.‎ ‎‎Before you disappear, I have a request, she says.‎ ‎‎[Say – Hin], leave us your sign (as a souvenir).‎ ‎‎The memory of you have to remain forever.‎ ‎‎The memory of you shouldn’t be lost.‎ ‎‎Then the god makes sign to Arjuna and told, make my sculpture.‎ ‎‎That time Draupadi sat down.‎ ‎‎Then Arjuna made the sculpture of the god and gave it to Draupadi.‎ ‎‎Then till morning and in the evening they had been carrying the figure of the god.‎ ‎‎Then from above there was a voice from heaven, the voice of our local gods.‎ ‎‎Put it here carefully.‎ ‎‎If not we will curse you and you will see more suffering.‎ ‎‎If you put it here.‎ ‎‎When you meet suffering, remember us and we will help you.‎ ‎‎From that time Krishna the god was put here.

‎‎ When we went to school, we felt very nice and good.‎ ‎‎At school time we got up in the morning and our mother woke up before all of us.‎ ‎‎Mother means ‘ama’, in our village we say ‘ama’.‎ ‎‎Our village is up (the mountain), when we went to primary school, we got up fast in the morning.‎ ‎‎Then getting up mami cooked food.‎ ‎‎She did, how to say… she sent us to school, then we came back in the evening time.‎ ‎‎That time I do not remember very much.‎ ‎‎When we had grown up and we were in the 6th or 7th class then that time we got up in the morning, we used to go to the fields.‎ ‎‎After working there in the fields, we went home.‎ ‎‎After that we ate meal at home, got ready and went to school.‎ ‎‎We study at daytime ‎ ‎‎We come home in the evening.‎ ‎‎Having come home, we have meal and then go to the fields again.‎ ‎‎When the night fell, we came home and after that we helped to cook dinner.‎ ‎‎After that we did housework, somebody washed dishes.‎ ‎‎We cook rotis all together. Then we sit and eat.‎ ‎‎And we are all delighted.‎ ‎‎The family is at home and speak to each other.‎ ‎‎There was a lot of joy. After that we went to sleep and, in the morning the same so it was.‎ ‎‎We felt very good those days.‎ ‎‎We feel very good when we remember our childhood memories.‎ ‎‎Su: And then you got married?‎ ‎‎Sh: After that I had studied till the 10th class.‎ ‎‎My parents told me to study till 12th class or go college.‎ ‎‎But I did not want, I refused and after that I went to study tailoring, I mean to sew clothes and suits et cetera.‎ ‎‎Then I studied there then what can we do.‎ ‎‎Just like after that respected villagers started to talk about me, about my marriage et cetera.‎ ‎‎After that they discussed my relatives, old people discussed with each other.‎ ‎‎At that time, I was very shy.‎ ‎‎Just as we talk frankly these days, we couldn’t talk then.‎ ‎‎I was very shy, so (I said) as you said, it’s ok‎ ‎‎But we (my groom and I) took a lot of time.‎ ‎‎We did not take a sudden decision.‎ ‎‎After that I studied my tailoring et cetera, we continiously dated each other.‎ ‎‎After that I completed the work.‎ ‎‎After that we took the final decision that now we should get married.‎ ‎‎At that time, we were 23-24 years old we were mature by that time.‎ ‎‎At that time, we were waiting, and we didn’t know what our parents would tell, so we decided to run away (to marry).‎ ‎‎We ran away and married.‎ ‎‎I mean we came here and after this from here it was necessary to go and persuade‎ ‎‎To my … there, to their home.‎ ‎‎In order to tell them that children ran away, don’t be angry.‎ ‎‎Now let’s all be happy here and there.‎ ‎‎And that’s how we were married and after that we started to live like that.‎ ‎‎So, after that I came here and the same time, we had many responsibilities and, in a year, or two children were was born.‎ ‎‎Again, the same process small children were growing up and then they went to school.‎ ‎‎So now these children also become big and we are also almost free, now these became free.‎ ‎‎Now they study.‎ ‎‎As this is our life in village.‎ ‎‎So that way.

Long live our Guga-dev. ‎‎Glory to Guga-dev.‎ ‎‎The name of Guga-dev has spread very far.‎ ‎‎Throughout the country and beyond its borders.‎ ‎‎And Guga-dev is known outside of Satya-yuga up to Kali-yuga.‎ ‎‎And I have been spreading the name Guga-deva a lot.‎ ‎‎I am the gur of the deity.‎ ‎‎My name is Sher Singh.‎ ‎‎And the deity brought me to Russia twice, I made pooja there, fulfilled people’s wishes.‎ ‎‎I’ll tell you a little bit about Guga-dev.‎ ‎‎The birthplace of Guga Deva is Rajasthan.‎ ‎‎He was born in Rajasthan.‎ ‎‎He was born in Rajasthan and is highly honored in Rajasthan.‎ ‎‎He is worshipped in Rajasthan a lot, people come there from afar, to make pooja.‎ ‎‎He fulfills someone’s wishes, some people have problems at home.‎ ‎‎He solves those problems, and whoever does not have a son, does not have offspring, he gives offspring.‎ ‎‎And many people worship Guga-dev.‎ ‎‎And Guga-dev’s… Guga-dev himself endured a lot of suffering.‎ ‎‎Guga-dev also endured a lot of suffering.‎ ‎‎His mother could not give birth to a child.‎ ‎‎Only after 12 years a child appeared when she performed a pooja to Guru Gorakhnath.‎ ‎‎Then they had a child and after that also.‎ ‎‎Then he, Guru Gorakhnath, gave her a blessing – I will tell the story a little.‎ ‎‎So it was that the mother of Guga-dev Bachal, mother Bachal.‎ ‎‎Father Jebar Singh, and paternal grandfather Umrao Singh, paternal uncle Tabr Singh.‎ ‎‎And then it was so that the children were not born.‎ ‎‎Bachal heard a voice from heaven.‎ ‎‎That you have to make pooja to Guru Gorakhnath, then you will have children, you will have a child.‎ ‎‎She started to make pooja.‎ ‎‎Started the puja, then Guru Gorakhnath realized that in Rajasthan some mata was making a puja, I would have to go there.‎ ‎‎At that time, it was in the Satya-yuga.‎ ‎‎Guru Gorakhnat was in Nepal, where he had a vision.‎ ‎‎From him … that from the guru … He has learned through his divine power.‎ ‎‎He learned through his divine power that Bachal was making puja for me, I had to go there.‎ ‎‎Then Guru Gorakhnath with his group came from Nepal to Rajasthan.‎ ‎‎When he reached Rajasthan, he reached the Naulakha garden, and the Naulakha garden had dried up.‎ ‎‎When the foot of mata Bachal stepped there…‎ ‎‎Jabr Singh laid out a garden in memory of Umrao Singh and as soon as he stepped there… as soon as her foot stepped there, the garden dried up.‎ ‎‎When Guru Gorakhnath came there.‎ ‎‎As soon as Guru Gorakhnath came there, the garden turned green.‎ ‎‎As soon as Guru Gorakhnath came there.‎ ‎‎As soon as Guru Gorakhnath came there, the garden turned green.‎ ‎‎Then Guru Gorakhnath established a place for an incensing there.‎ ‎‎After having established a place for incensing, there is a special place for a never-ceasing incense in the Naulakha garden.‎ ‎‎Then Bachal Mata learned that Guru Gorakhnath had come, then I will go to Guru Gorakhnath.‎ ‎‎Mata went, mata Bachal, she said, I am making pooja for you, he said ‘good’.‎ ‎‎In the morning and in the evening, Bachal mata made an offering of khir, lit a lamp, she did everything.‎ ‎‎She had been making puja for two years … twelve years.‎ ‎‎Twelve years have passed.‎ ‎‎When the time approached to give her the result, Guru Gorakhnath said, you should come as soon as possible in the morning, I will give you the blessing.‎ ‎‎Mata Kachal and Bachal.‎ ‎‎There were two sisters, Kachal and Bachal.‎ ‎‎Kachal was the mother of twins, and Bachal was the Guga-dev’s mother.‎ ‎‎Kachal told her sister “Give me your clothes to wear”.‎ ‎‎She committed treachery towards her, her sister, committed treachery.‎ ‎‎And going there she asked for the blessing from Guru Gorakhnath, she went, wearing the given clothes.‎ ‎‎She came, then went Bachal, Bachal said, Guru Gorakhnath ji.‎ ‎‎Today I am … Mine.‎ ‎‎Then he said, I had given you the blessing, hadn’t I.‎ ‎‎And now I have no more blessing.‎ ‎‎Then she started crying and screaming, he said wait.‎ ‎‎Then Guru Gorakhnath got up from there and descended into hell.‎ ‎‎Down to hell, he went to hell.‎ ‎‎There is the serpent Vasuki, he went to the throne of Vasuki Nag.‎ ‎‎Guru Gorakhnath gave the order to the serpent Vasuki.‎ ‎‎Old place, old serpent, rajah.‎ ‎‎Told him that you, what you need to do.‎ ‎‎Next to my place of incensing, I put incense from guggul, you need to go there to collect this guggul.‎ ‎‎You need to collect, and so.‎ ‎‎The serpent Vasuki obeyed the instructions of Guru Gorakhnath.‎ ‎‎The serpent Vasuki obeyed the orders of Guru Gorakhnath.‎ ‎‎And the one who was in that principality of the kingdom, rajah, he.‎ ‎‎Padam Nag, and Padam Nag came from there.‎ ‎‎Guru, what is you order? he said, the old place, my place for incensing is arranged there, go there and collect guggul there.‎ ‎‎That’s how it was, then he went, collected the guggul.‎ ‎‎And after that Guru Gorakhnath gave the blessing to Bachal.‎ ‎‎Guru Gorakhnath gave the blessing.‎ ‎‎Take this, I gave you the blessing.‎ ‎‎Now you will have a son.‎ ‎‎And mata did so, put the guggul on the place for incensing.‎ ‎‎Guru Gorakhnath said what you had done.‎ ‎‎You put all the blessing in the fire that what you did.‎ ‎‎Said look down what’s in the fire.‎ ‎‎When she looked into the fire, there was a boy, a child.
