ఛత్రపతి శంభాజి మహారాజు, రాజు అయిన తరువాత తన తండ్రి అయిన ఛత్రపతి శివాజీ చేబట్టిన కార్యాన్ని శంభాజీ మహరాజ్ (శివాజీ కొడుకు) పూర్తి చేయ కంకణం కట్టుకున్నాడు.✊
ఈయన, బ్రాహ్మణుల చేత శూద్రులకు చదవుకునే అర్హతను దిక్కరించిన మనుస్మ్రుతిని దిక్కరించి, బుద్ధ భూషణం అనే పుస్తకాన్ని రాశాడు. వేదా పురాణ గ్రంధాలన్నీ. అధ్యయనం చేసి, ఈ దేశానికి బౌద్ధం ఒక్కటే మార్గం అని బౌద్ద సిద్దాంతాలను ప్రచారం చేయ పూనుకున్నాడు.
ఇది బ్రాహ్మణులకు మరింత ఆగ్రహాన్ని కలిగించింది. అంతేకాకుండా మిగత శూద్ర కులాలన్నింటిని చైతన్యం చేయ పూనుకున్నాడు.
శూద్ర కులాలన్నీ ఏకమవటం బ్రాహ్మణులకు మరింత ఉక్రోషానికి గురిచేసింది.
తమ మనుధర్మ సిద్ధాంతాలకు వాటిల్లిన పెను ప్రమాదాన్ని అంతమొందించటానికి చెల్లాచెదురైన బ్రాహ్మణులంతా ఏకమై, మొఘల్ పాలకుడు ఔరంగజేబు తో చేతులు🤝 కలుపుతారు.
అప్పుడు బ్రాహ్మణులు కుటిల యత్నంతో శంభాజి మహారాజును కుట్రతో, సమయం చూసి, ఔరంగజేబు కబురు పెట్టగా, అప్పుడు ఔరంగజేబు శంభాజీ మహారాజును, అయన అనుచరులను బంధించి, బ్రాహ్మణులకు అప్పచెప్పుతారు.
అప్పుడు బ్రాహ్మణులు మనుస్మృతిలో శూద్ర కులాల ప్రజలకు ఎటువంటి శిక్షలు వేయాలో చెప్పినట్టుగా కళ్ళు పీకి, చర్మం వొలిచి నాలుక కోసి ఛత్రపతి శంబాజి మహారాజును క్రూరంగా హత్య చేశారు.
ఆయన తలను అయన అనుచరుల తలలను కోసి వారి ఖడ్గాలకు వాటిని గుచ్చి, పూనా లో ఊరేగించారు.
"చూడండి మీ చక్రవర్తి మమ్మల్ని దిక్కరించి కులధర్మాన్ని దిక్కరించిన వాడు చుడండి వీడికి ఏ గతి పట్టిందో మీలో ఎవరన్న ఇలా చేస్తే మీకు కూడా ఇదే గతి పడుతుంది అని ప్రజలను హెచ్చరించారు ఆనాటి పేశ్వా బ్రాహ్మణులు.
ఆనాడు శంభాజి మహారాజు పరిపాలన వలన శూద్రులందరూ ఎదిగారు, ముఖ్యంగా అంటరానివారు (ఈనాటి SC లు).
అయితే శంభాజీ మహరాజు శవాన్ని అలా అనాధ శవంలా చూడలేక ఆ నాటి అంటరాని వారు (SC లు) శంభాజి మహారాజు శవాన్ని తలను దగ్గర చేర్చి గౌరవంగా అంతిమ సంస్కారాలు చేస్తారు.
అలా శంభాజి మహారాజు కి అంతటి గౌరవం ఇచ్చినందుకు బ్రాహ్మణులు ఆనాటినుండి అంటరాని వారికి (ఎస్ సి) శిక్షగా మూతికి ముంత, ముడ్డికి చీపురు తగిలించారు.😞* అంతేకాక అంటరాని వారిపై ఎన్నో ఆంక్షలు పెట్టారు.
అలా ఛత్రపతి శంభాజీని చంపి ఈ రోజుతో శూద్ర రాజ్యం అంతమై పోయింది, బ్రాహ్మణులు సరికొత్త కాలం మొదలైంది అని ఆ రోజున పండుగ చేసుకున్నారు ఆ పండుగ పేరు గుడి పడువా అదే మన ఆంధ్రప్రదేశ్ లో ఉగాదిగా జరుపుకుంటారు.
గుడి పడవా రోజున బ్రాహ్మణులూ చెంబులకు ఎర్రని వస్త్రాలు కట్టి దాన్నిలో ఒక కర్రను పెట్టి పైకెత్తి తిరుగుతారు. ఆనాడు శంభాజీ మహారాజ్ అయన అనుచరుల తలలను కత్తులకు గుచ్చి ఊరేగించారు దానికి గుర్తే ఈ చెంబులో కర్రలు పెట్టి ఉరేగించడం.
కానీ బ్రాహ్మణులు ఉగాది అంటే యుగాది అని, అంటే కొత్త యుగం మొదలైంది అని చెబుతారు, నిజానికి ఛత్రపతి శంబాజీ పరిపాలన యుగం అంతము పోయి, బ్రాహ్మణ పేశ్వాలా యుగం మొదలైంది అని అర్థం.
బ్రాహ్మణుల మాటల్లో చాలా చాలా నిగూఢ మైన అర్థం వుంటుంది , అందుకే వాళ్ళు మాట్లాడే, చెప్పే ప్రతి మాటను, పదాన్ని జాగ్రత్తగా ఆలోచించి అర్థం చేసుకునే ప్రయత్నం చేయండి.

Ugadi 2024: Date, Time, Significance and Celebrations
Ugadi, oh what a celestial symphony it brings! It’s more than just a date on the calendar; it’s a gateway to a new age, a fresh beginning pulsating with ancient wisdom and cultural richness. In the heartlands of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, and Goa, India, Ugadi unfurls its magic, weaving together threads of tradition and spirituality.
Yugadi / Ugadi Significance
Derived from the Sanskrit words ‘yuga’ and ‘adi’, Ugadi signifies the dawn of a new epoch, a time for rebirth and rejuvenation. As the Gregorian calendar inches toward late March or early April, Hindus across these regions immerse themselves in the tapestry of rituals and festivities, cherishing every moment as sacred.
Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra, Ugadi in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, and Yugadi in Karnataka – each name resonates with the rhythm of tradition, carrying forth the legacy of generations past. It’s a time when homes come alive with vibrant Muggulu or Rangoli, each pattern a reflection of hope and prosperity.
Ah, the aroma of mango leaves adorning doorways, whispering tales of abundance and fertility. Charity flows freely, like a river of compassion, as hearts open wide to embrace the less fortunate. Oil massages and ceremonial baths cleanse not just the body, but the soul, preparing one for the journey ahead.
And then, there’s the legendary Pachadi. A dish so divine, it tantalizes the taste buds with its symphony of six flavors. Sweet, sour, bitter, tangy, spicy, and salty – each taste a metaphor for life’s myriad experiences. It’s like celebrating life with food, reminding us to enjoy every moment of the year ahead.
But in the midst of all the fun and delicious food, let’s not forget what Ugadi is really about. It’s a time to find peace in the presence of something greater than ourselves, to acknowledge the forces that shape our lives. As we pray and seek blessings in temples, let’s also take a moment to look inward and recognize the divinity within us.
Ugadi, with its mix of colors and flavors, encourages us to pause, reflect, and appreciate the cycle of life. It reminds us that even in our darkest moments, there’s always hope for a new beginning.
So, as we come together with our loved ones to celebrate Ugadi, let’s do it with grateful hearts and joyful spirits. Because in this moment of laughter and connection, we find the true beauty of life – love, togetherness, and the promise of starting anew.
