A short information about Mahanubhava Pantha

Mahanubhava Pantha is a religious sect following the teachings of Panch Avatars of pantha. Mahanubhava Pantha originated during the late 12th century and from the Varhada region of Maharashtra. Pantha teaches how to connect the inner soul with the parmewshwara bhagti and attain moksha.

Pancha Avatars Of Mahanubhava Pantha | Dandvat

Sarvadnya Shree Chakradhar Swami told to his pantha that the lord takes avatars in all four Yugas (Krutayuga, Tretayuga, Dwaparyuga, Kaliyuga). Same was said by Shree Krishna in Shree Bhagavad Gita: “Dharma Sansthaapnaarthay Sambhavaami Yuge Yuge”. Accordingly, there is not a time in this world when avatar of prabhu is absent.

Brahmvidya Shastra, It is a collection of main vachans (sutras) of Swami Shree Chakardhara and presents the philosophical core of Mahanubhav Pantha. Very well planned and carefully organized into various sections, it is revered as our Shastra mop Parmeshwar (God in the form of scripture).

🚩 Five incarnations of Mahanubhava Pantha

Mahanubhav Pantha started by Sarvadnya Shree Chakradhar Swami in 1267 and he is the 5th avatar. Earlier to Shree Chakradhar Swami there were 4 more avatars. We call them as Panch Krishna Avatars.

Pancha Avatars Of Mahanubhava Pantha | Dandvat

Shri Chakradhar Swami propagated a religious movement, as well as social movement, in which all members were accepted irrespective of their castes, and the traditional ritualistic religion was rejected. Some sources list the founder of Mahanubhava as Govinda Prabhu and Chakradhara as its first “apostle”.

Mahanubhava Pantha teaches that Krishna is the only God in Universe.

Sarvadnya Shree Chakradhar Swami told to his pantha that the lord takes avatars in all four Yugas (Krutayuga, Tretayuga, Dwaparyuga, Kaliyuga). Same was said by Shree Krishna in Shree Bhagavad Gita: “Dharma Sansthaapnaarthay Sambhavaami Yuge Yuge”. Accordingly, there is not a time in this world when avatar of prabhu is absent.

Twenty Four Gurus of Lord Shree Dattatreya - Avadhoot Prabhu

Twenty Four Gurus of Lord Shree D...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Lord Shree Dattatreya said
I have taken shelter of twenty-four gurus, who are the following: the earth, air, sky, water, fire, moon, sun, pigeon and python; the sea, moth, honeybee, elephant and honey thief; the deer, the fish, the dancing girl Pingala, the kurari bird and the child; the young girl, arrow maker, serpent, spider and wasp…
Srimad Bhagavatam: Canto 11: Chapter 7: Slokas 33~35
1. Prithvi (Earth) One should acquire the virtues of endurance and tolerance of duality from the earth. The Earth teaches course of Dharma, art of Tolerance, art of Performing Duty.
2. Vaayu (Air) One should be detached like the wind. The Wind being pure and odourless in its characteristics, move freely among all objects and yet remain unaffected. Calm and ever flowing without any fear.
3. Aakash (Sky) Just like the sky one should be single and steady. Like sky, the Soul is omnipresent, all-pervading, and infinite in nature.
4. Jall (Water) Just like water one should behave with affection towards all. Never be partial to anyone. The sage is like water because he is free from all impurities, gentle in nature and while speaking he creates a beautiful vibration like the flowing of water.
5. Agni (Fire) Like the fire one should behave with equality towards all. The sage's glory is like the fire, is made brighter by austerities, his knowledge and tapas; having no vessel other than his stomach.
6. Chandar (Moon) There are in all sixteen phases of the moon including the subtle phase of the new moon and the fifteen of the fortnight. Though there is waxing and waning of the moon, it remains unaffected by them. Sage should not be affected by the continual change of body from birth to death including diseases and old age.
7. Surya (Sun) The sun stores water taking the future into account and benevolently showers it on the earth at the appropriate moment. Similarly the sage can accept material things with his senses, but at the appropriate time he should give these things back, as an act from sense of duty. Without getting attached to material sense objects.
8. Kabootar (Pigeon) Like pigeon story warns against developing obsessive love or attachments in the transient material world. The sage would refrain from attachment after attaining the human body, which is the open door to Mukti (Moksha, Liberation), a door to God-Realization.
9. Ajgar (Python) Ajgar eats whatever comes in its way and satisfy, whether it is sufficient or not, bitter or sweet etc. A sage always goes for search of wisdom and refrains from running after unwanted pleasures.
10. Samudra (Ocean) One should not let anyone perceive one's virtues just as the sea keeps its length, breadth, depth and the treasures in its bed hidden from everyone. However one should always utilise them favourably, for the sake of others. The life of sage remains balanced; the joys of life do not excite him, nor do sorrows depress him. The wise sage never transgresses the highest standards of morality.
11. Patanga (Moth) Similarly a foolish man is enticed by the illusory pleasures of the visual senses and thus gets caught in the ceaseless cycles of birth and death. Man must try to control the sense of sight (and all other senses) and to try to avoid being greedy.
12. Madhu Mskhee (Honey Collector) Just as the one who collects the honey acquires it effortlessly so also a male seeker should partake of food cooked in the home of a householder instead of spending time in making a fire, collecting utensils, firewood, etc. Thus learning that accumulation of wealth leads to sudden death like the honey bee, one should stop amassing wealth.
13. Haathi (Elephant) Men allured by adulterous women are destroyed in the same way as elephants overcome with lust die fighting amongst themselves.
14. Mdhumakkhee (Bumble Bee) Just as the bumble-bee savours the fragrance of several sunflowers instead of one so also seekers desirous of Liberation should realise that every science will not be easy to grasp and hence should try to understand their implied meaning.
15. Hiran (Musk Deer) The deer is very fond of music and is very much attracted by it. The deer is trapped by hunter through its love for music. Hunter employs music to lure the deer before hunting it. A renounced person should never become attracted by mundane sounds like sensuous music, specially the sweet singing and dancing of girl.
16. Machli (Fish) When a fish-hook fastened with bait is thrown into the water, the fish lured by the bait swallows the hook and gets caught. Thus it loses its life. So one should never lose sight of his True Self.
17. Pingala (A Dancing Girl) One night despite a long wait not a single client approached her. As she restlessly waited pacing up and down, hoping for a client she was finally bored and suddenly developed detachment. The abandonment of expectation from people, leads to contentment and infinite joy.
18. Pakshee (Lapwing) Seeing the lapwing fly with a fish in its beak hundreds of crows and eagles began chasing it, pecking at it and tried to snatch the fish, thus harassing it. This flock began following it wherever it went. In this world there is peace only if sense objects are rejected, otherwise it leads to great distress.
19. Balak (Child) Live like being child at heart, innocent, care free and full of Supreme Joy.
20. Churiyaan (Bangles) When two bangles strike each other a jingling sound is generated. The more the bangles the greater is the sound. Similarly when two persons live together it leads to conversation and when many persons live together there is strife. In both circumstances there is no peace of mind. Hence those doing meditation, yoga, etc. should search for an isolated place and live there in seclusion.
21. Shilpkar (Artisan) One day an artisan was chiselling the blade of an arrow with great concentration. A king's procession to the accompaniment of music passed by that way. A man arriving later approached the artisan and enquired, “Have you seen the king's procession passing by this way, just now?” The artisan replied, “I was so engrossesd in my work that I was not aware of anything”. Just like this artisan a seeker desirous of Liberation (mumukshu) should meditate surrendering all his sense organs to The Lord.
22. Saanp (Snake) The snake lives alone and avoids the company of other creatures. In order to seek Self-Realization, one should abide in the cave of his own heart. The snake leaves of its old skin after sometime, and gets the newer one; that make resemblance with phenomenon of death. A true sage never frightened by the death, knowing sooner or later he will get a new life based on his karmic actions.
23. Makadi (Spider) The spider spins a web secreting a fluid from its belly and plays in it day and night. When it feels like it, it swallows the entire web and becomes free again. Lord Supreme creates material universe from His Maya, preserves it and after a while draws it back into the Self. The Supreme Self has no desires and is beyond the reach of cause and effect.
24. Bhringee Keet (Caterpillar, Wasp) The wasp catches hold of a worm (caterpillar), put it in its hive (nest), gives it a sting and goes on buzzing about it. The caterpillar is so frightened by this whole ongoing process of buzzing. As a man thinks, so he becomes. Even at the time of death, whatever one's mind focused on, one attains the same living species form in his next life.
Thus one must try to give up all attachment to the body and attain Moksha or liberation.
Shree Dattatreya explains what he has learned from his own body as a Guru My Body teaches me Gyaan (knowledge) and Vairaagya (detachment). Birth and death are along with it. It means that if we hold on to this body then we have to bear sorrows. Although it helps to think about Tattwa (elements) still I never consider it mine.

Shree Chakardhara Swami ji said By doing the Seva-Dasya-Bhajan-Pujan of these four means Sthan-Prasad-Bhikshuk-Vasnik you can outreach me

Shree Chakardhara Swami ji said B...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

It is very necessary to remember and recall the name of Prabhu ji according to the rituals as explained in the Bhramvidya Shashtra. Take the silent place and do the smaran there. While remembering the Prabhu ji, you must be directly associated to the god. Try to remember the way in which you can actually feel the things happening during that time. Flashback the things as they are going now.

It is proven that Smaran is the only way to get closer to the ultimate spirit called Lord. While doing the smaran, remember that your posture must be straight and your eyes must be half closed and pointing towards straight. Buzz in the little louder sound, such that your body can feel the positive vibes of that word. The best time to do the smaran is in-between 03:00AM to 06:00AM.

Shree Chakardhara Swami ji usually says “Wake early in the morning” - “पश्चात प्रहरी उठीजे”
A leela associated to the Shree Chakardhara Swami Ji:
While proceeding to the north direction, all the pantha members were very sad and they asked Prabhu ji in very sad, depressed and weeping tone “Swami, where we will go in your remembrance. How do we do it?”

Then Swami ji replied: Naam, Leela and Murti Cheshta, remembring the lord in these way and doing the Seva-Dasya-Bhajan-Pujan of these four means Sthan-Prasad-Bhikshuk-Vasnik you can outreach me. After giving direction Prabhuji appointed Nagdev Aacharya for the Seva of Panhta (Mahanubhav Pantha) and leaved for the north.

Leela Charitar is the literature defining the life of the Lord Shree Chakardhara Swami

Leela Charitar is the literature ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Maharashtra the epicenter. While touring the omniscient Lord Shree Chakardhara Swami Ji arrived in Maharashtra and created a number of leelas, because of these reasons this is a place of pilgrimage in Maharashtra. To learn more about these mystrical leelas of Lord Shree Chakardhara you will read the book entitled “Leela Charitar”. Beside this, the pujniey guru ji or the Mahatmas will help you to understad this Mahan Granth.

The followers of Lord Shree Chakardhara Swami Ji are Nagadevacarya, Maimabhatta, Baisa and Mahadaisa. These have taken the charge to direct the bhagats after the departure of the Lord towards the North direction.

Now, for the promotion and cultivation of the pantha, the Shree MadBhagwad Gita is the prime cult. Leela Charitar is the literature defining the life of the Lord Shree Chakardhara Swami.

Few of the most important literature of Pantha are as below:
🌸 Rukhmini Swayambar - Narendra Bhatt (1292).
🌸 Shisupala Vadh - Bhaskar Bhat Borikara (1312).
🌸 Uddhava Gita - Bhaskar Bhat Borikara (1313).
🌸 Sayhyadrivarnana - Ravalobasa (1353).
🌸 Riddhapura Varnanan - Narayanabasa (1418).
🌸 Vacchaharanam - Damodhara Pandit (1316).
🌸 Gyaan Prabodha - Vishwanath Balapurkar (1418).

Literatures of Mahanubhava Pantha are too famous in the Marathi Language and in the history of Marathi it is too vast.
The first biographer, sutrakara, grammarian, the first commentator, mahabhasyakara, writer, first sastratikara, the first prameyakara, the first stanza creator, the first bandakara. This is not the end, the very forst Poet of the Marathi is even from the Mahanubhava Pantha. Similarly in this way the people of Mahanubhava Pantha have played tremendous role in the history of Marathi and Maratha Samaj.

Yoga of wisdom and realization.

Prabhu Sri Krishna Ji said:
I am the sapidity in water, O Arjuna!
I am the light in the moon and the sun
I am the syllable AUM in all the Vedas, sound in ether, and virility in men
I am the sweet fragrance in earth and the brilliance in fire, the life in all beings
I am austerity in ascetics
Know Me, O Arjuna!
As the eternal seed of all beings
I am the intelligence of the intelligent
the splendour of the splendid objects am I!
Of the strong, I am the strength devoid of desire and attachment, and in [all] beings.
I am the desire unopposed to Dharma, O Arjuna!
Whatever being [and objects] that are pure, active and inert, know that they proceed from Me.
They are in Me, yet I am not in them.

Once Mahadaisa asked Sarwagya Ji, How Shree Krishan Chander Prabhu ji gifted Udhav Dev with his love

Once Mahadaisa asked Sarwagya Ji,...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

As usual Mahadaisa was sitting in front of Swami Shree Chakardhara Ji. She asked prabhu ji “How Shree Krishan Chander Prabhu ji gifted Udhav Dev with his love”. Prabhu ji was in meditation posture.

Then Sarwagy Ji replied, Mahadaisa when Shree Krishan Ji was going towards the prison cell after killing the Raja Kans. Prabhu Ji found, somebody was hiding behind the pillar with heavy breath. He was apprehensive and fearful that something bad could go with him. He was trying to keep him away from the sight of Prabhuji.

Prabhu saw him hidden and said, who was hiding there: One of the sewak of Raja Kans said, Prabhu ji he is the Minister of Raja Kans. Immediately Udhav Dev said, Prabhu ji I do only the long and careful consideration or discussion with Raja Kans. Then Prabhu ji said, till the day you have worked and taken the seat under the Kans, now you will take the position under my empire and do the same. After this incidence, Udhav experienced the wibes of loves towards the Prabhu ji and have bowed towards the Shree Krishan Chakarwati Prabhu.

एक दिन महदाइसा ने श्री चकर्धर स्वामी जी से पूछा, हे प्रभो! प्रभु श्री कृष्ण चंदर जी ने उद्धव देव को प्रेम दान किस प्रकार दिया ?

सर्वज्ञ श्री चक्रधर स्वामी जी ने उत्तर दिया, महदाइसा! जब भगवन श्री कृष्ण जी राजा कंस का वध करके कारागर की ओर जाने लगे तो वहा देखा की उद्धव देव भयभीत स्तम्भ के पीछे खड़े थे |

श्री कृष्ण जी ने उन्हें छिपा देख कर कहा, अरे! वहा कूँ खड़ा है| उतर देते हुए अन्य सेवक ने कहा| प्रभु जी वहा पर राजा कंस के प्रधान मंत्री है| तत्काल उद्धव ने कहा, प्रभु जी में अपनी बुद्धि से कुछ मंत्रणा कंस के समुख रखा करता था| तब प्रभु जी ने कहा, आपने आजतक कंस का अमात्यतव सवीकारा था, अब आजसे आप हमारा मंत्रितब धारण करो ओर हमे मंत्रणा दिया करो| प्रभु जी के इन्ही वचनों के साथ उद्धव देव को प्रेम संक्रमण हुआ ओर उन्होंने प्रभु जी को सहस्तांग दंडवत प्रणाम कर , खुदको धन्य माना|

– गोदावरीच्या काठावर बसलेल्या पैठण शहराची निर्मीती शालिवाहन राजा याने केली
– याच शालीवाहन राजाने मराठी शके सुरू केली …तेव्हापासून शालीवाहन शके असे म्हणतात

स्वामी जी धीरे से मुस्कराये और बोले कि महदाइसा यह समझो कि सृष्टि के साथ साथ ही ज्ञान परम्परा का आरम्भ होता है। इस लिये ज्ञान परम्परा को सनातन भी कहा गया है। हमारी ज्ञान परम्परा के आदि कारण चतुर्युगी भगवान श्री दत्तात्रेयप्रभुजी हैं। उन्होनें त्रेता युग में अवतार धारण किया था। वे चारों युगों में विद्यमान रहते हैं। आज भी सैह्याद्री पर्वत पर क्रीड़ा कर रहे है। जीवों को ज्ञान प्रदान कर उनक उध्दार करना उनकी प्रवृति है। सृष्टि की ज्ञान परम्परा के वे आदि कारण माने जाते हैं। उन्ही के द्वारा ज्ञान की जाह्नवी चारों युगों में प्रवाहित होती रहती है।

सैह्याद्री पर्वत पर श्री दत्तात्रयेप्रभु ने व्याघ्रवेष में दर्शन देकर द्वारावतीकार श्रीचांगदेवराऊल को ज्ञानशक्ति प्रदान की। कालान्तर में भगवान श्री गेविन्द प्रभु ने द्वारावतीकार श्रीचांगदेवराऊल को निमित बनाकर उनसे ज्ञानशक्ति स्वीकार की। और भगवान गोविन्दप्रभु को निमित बनाकर हमने रिद्धपुर में ज्ञानशक्ति स्वीकार की। इस तरह ज्ञान की परम्परा अनवरत रूप से चलती रहती है। समय समय पर जब भी ज्ञान की परम्परा लुप्त प्राय: हो जाती है, तब तब पुन: सृष्टि में परमेश्वर अवतरित होते हैं और ज्ञान परम्परा को आगे बनाये रखने का प्रयास किया जाता है।

श्री दत्तात्रयेप्रभुजी की जय

भगवान श्री कृष्ण जी को छप्पन भोग ...

🙏 दंडवत प्रणाम 🙏

भगवान को लगाए जाने वाले भोग की बड़ी महिमा है। इनके लिए 56 प्रकार के व्यंजन परोसे जाते हैं, जिसे छप्पन भोग कहा जाता है। यह भोग रसगुल्ले से शुरू होकर दही, चावल, पूरी, पापड़ आदि से होते हुए इलायची पर जाकर खत्म होता है।
अष्ट पहर भोजन करने वाले बालकृष्ण भगवान को अर्पित किए जाने वाले छप्पन भोग के पीछे कई रोचक कथाएं हैं।

भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने गोवर्धन पर्वत को उठाया:
ऐसा भी कहा जाता है कि यशोदाजी बालकृष्ण को एक दिन में अष्ट पहर भोजन कराती थी। अर्थात् बालकृष्ण आठ बार भोजन करते थे। जब इंद्र के प्रकोप से सारे व्रज को बचाने के लिए भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने गोवर्धन पर्वत को उठाया था, तब लगातार सात दिन तक भगवान ने अन्न जल ग्रहण नहीं किया।
आठवे दिन जब भगवान ने देखा कि अब इंद्र की वर्षा बंद हो गई है, सभी व्रजवासियो को गोवर्धन पर्वत से बाहर निकल जाने को कहा, तब दिन में आठ प्रहर भोजन करने वाले व्रज के नंदलाल कन्हैया का लगातार सात दिन तक भूखा रहना उनके व्रज वासियों और मया यशोदा के लिए बड़ा कष्टप्रद हुआ। भगवान के प्रति अपनी अन्न्य श्रद्धा भक्ति दिखाते हुए सभी व्रजवासियो सहित यशोदा जी ने 7 दिन और अष्ट पहर के हिसाब से 7X8= 56 व्यंजनो का भोग बाल कृष्ण को लगाया।

गोपिकाओं ने भेंट किए छप्पन भोग:
श्रीमद्भागवत के अनुसार, गोपिकाओं ने एक माह तक यमुना में भोर में ही न केवल स्नान किया, अपितु कात्यायनी मां की अर्चना भी इस मनोकामना से की, कि उन्हें नंदकुमार ही पति रूप में प्राप्त हों। श्रीकृष्ण ने उनकी मनोकामना पूर्ति की सहमति दे दी। व्रत समाप्ति और मनोकामना पूर्ण होने के उपलक्ष्य में ही उद्यापन स्वरूप गोपिकाओं ने छप्पन भोग का आयोजन किया।
छप्पन भोग हैं छप्पन सखियां ऐसा भी कहा जाता है कि गौलोक में भगवान श्रीकृष्ण राधिका जी के साथ एक दिव्य कमल पर विराजते हैं। उस कमल की तीन परतें होती हैं…प्रथम परत में “आठ”, दूसरी में “सोलह” और तीसरी में “बत्तीस पंखुड़िया” होती हैं। प्रत्येक पंखुड़ी पर एक प्रमुख सखी और मध्य में भगवान विराजते हैं। इस तरह कुल पंखुड़ियों संख्या छप्पन होती है। 56 संख्या का यही अर्थ है।

जय श्री चक्रधर स्वामी जी
फिर किसी दिन रात का पूजा अवसर हो जाने के बाद भगवान जी आंगन में शत्पदी करते हुए चांदनी रात की तरफ इशारा करने लगे! भगवान जी की इच्छा थी कि कहीं बाहर घूमने के लिए निकला जाए! बाईसा माताजी जी को कह कर तैयारी करवाई गई! भगवान जी की सवारी के लिए सभी भक्तजन तैयार थे किंतु उनमें से नागदेव जी को घोड़ा बनने के लिए महाराज ने तैयार किया! भगवान जी ने अपने रेशमी वस्त्र को दोनों तरफ से बांध लिया और कमर के पीछे कर राजा की भांति सवार हो गए! सभी के हाथों में लाठी थी! नागदेव जी को भगवान जी ने स्थिति सुख दिया जिसके प्रभाव से वे घोड़े की तरह हिनहिनाते हुए तेज गति से चलने लगे! छिनस्थली गुफा में आकर भगवान जी रुके और भक्तजनों ने अपनी लाठी की मशाल से आरती जलाई! सुंदर पूजा अर्चना कर भगवान जी के लिए आसन बनाया गया! सिंदोले गव्हाण गांव से दूध लाकर भक्तजनों ने भगवान जी को दूध चावल का भोजन करवाया! फिर स्वामी जी ने सभी भक्तों को प्रसाद दिया और वापिस राजमठ लौट आए!

महात्माओं की दीवाली:-
एक दिन महदाइसाने भगवानसे प्रार्थना की, ‘महाराज ! मैं आपकी सेवामें दीवालीका त्यौहार मनाऊँगी।’ भगवानने आज्ञा दी, ‘हमारे साथ महात्मालोगोंकी भी दीवाली मनायी जाये। त्यौहार मनानेका सामान यदि कम हो, तो नागुबाइसासे माँग लो।’

महदाइसाने ‘जो आज्ञा’ कहकर सबको स्नान करानेके लिये संध्याके समय ही पानी भर लिया। उमाइसाके घरसे उबटन, तेल तथा साबुन ले आयी। उस दिन भगवान बहुत सवेरे उठकर शौच आदिसे निवृत्त होकर आसनपर आ बैठे। भक्तलोगोंको भी बैठाया गया। महदाइसाने भक्त तथा भगवानकी आरती उतारी और भगवानको वीड़ा दिया। महदाइसाने भगवानके शरीरपर उबटन मला। उस कटोरीमें और तेल डालकर उसने भक्तोंको दिया। उन्होंने उबटनसे परस्पर एक-दूसरेके शरीरका मर्दन किया। उसने भगवानके सिरपर तेलकी मालिश की। भगवानको ऊँचे चबूतरेपर बिठलाया गया। नारियलके दूधसे उनका सिर धोया गया। भक्तजनोंको भी हरे नारियलका दूध सिरमें लगानेको दिया गया। उन्होंने एक-दूसरेके सिरपर मल लिया। फिर भगवानको जलसे नहलाया गया। महदाइसा पानी डाल रही थी और बाइसाजी सिर तथा शरीरको मल रही थी। भक्तलोग चबूतरेके नीचे खड़े होकर उस पानीसे नहा रहे थे। अंतमें जब भगवानकी श्रीमूर्तिपर पानीकी धार डाली गयी, तो भगवानने दोनों हाथ सिरपर रख लिये। पानी कुहनियोंसे होकर बहने लगा। उस पानीसे भक्तजन नहाये। इस प्रकार भगवान तथा भक्तोंको स्नान करवाया गया ।

शरीरपर बाल अधिक होनेके कारण नागदेवजीको और अलग पानी देकर नहलाया गया। महदाइसाने कुछ वस्तुएँ लेकर भगवानके सिरसे वार दीं। उसके पश्चात भगवानने वस्त्र पहिन लिये। भगवानको आसनपर बिठलाकर उनकी पूजा की गयी। सभीको चंदनका तिलक लगाया गया। पुनश्च सभीके सिरपरसे कुछ वस्तुएँ वार दी गयीं। भगवानको वीड़ा और भक्तजनोंको पान दिये गये। भगवानने सबको पान खानेकी आज्ञा दी। सबने पान खाये। उतनेमें अरुणोदय हो जानेपर बाइसाजीने दैनिक पूजाअवसर किया। बादमें भगवान विहरणके लिये चले गये और महदाइसा भोजन बनानेमें लग गयी ।

विहरणसे भगवानके लौटनेपर महदाइसाने पूजाअवसर किया। भगवानके लिये थाल और भक्तोंके लिये पत्तलें परोसी गयीं। भगवानके साथ बैठकर सब भक्तजनोंने भोजन किया। इस प्रकार दीपावली मनायी गयी ।
