Narmada Mata Katha
00:0000:00
Narmada Mata ki katha ke anusar Narmada nadi ko keval ek nadi nahin balki Devi swaroop mana gaya hai, jinhen Shankar Bhagwan (Mahadev) ki putri kaha jata hai. Puranon mein varnan milta hai ki ek samay Bhagwan Shiv ne sansar ke kalyan ke liye kathor tapasya ki. Unki tapasya ke dauran unke sharir se divya tej aur pasine ki boonden Prithvi par giri, aur usi divya urja se Narmada Mata ka prakatya hua. Isliye Narmada nadi ko atyant pavitra, mokshadayini aur Shivji ki shakti ka swaroop mana jata hai. Ek anya katha ke anusar, jab Prithvi par paap aur adharm badh gaya tha, tab devtaon ne Bhagwan Shiv se prarthana ki ki ve Prithvi ko shuddh karne ke liye koi upay karen. Tab Shivji ki shakti se Narmada nadi ka janm hua aur unhone Prithvi par pravahit hokar sabhi paapon ko nasht karne ka karya aarambh kiya.
Narmada Mata ko "Reva" naam se bhi jana jata hai kyunki unke jal ke pravah mein ek vishesh kampan aur tarangon ka swaroop hota hai. Kaha jata hai ki Narmada ji ka vivaah Sonbhadra nadi se hona tay tha, lekin unhone brahmacharya aur tapasya ka marg chuna aur swayam ko manav kalyan ke liye samarpit kar diya. Isi karan Narmada nadi ko aajeevan pavitra aur swatantra nadi mana jata hai.
Narmada ji ka udgam Madhya Pradesh ke Amarkantak Parvat se hua mana jata hai, jahan unka prakatya ek kund se hua tha. Wahan se ve pashchim disha ki or bahti hui Arab Sagar tak jati hain. Unke tat par anek pavitra tirth sthit hain jaise Omkareshwar Jyotirling, Maheshwar, Mandla aur Bhedaghat. Narmada tat ko swayam Bhagwan Shiv ka nivaas sthan bhi mana jata hai.
Shastron mein kaha gaya hai ki Ganga snan se jo punya milta hai, wahi punya Narmada ji ke keval darshan matra se prapt ho jata hai. Narmada Parikrama ko atyant kathin aur punyakari mana gaya hai, jisme bhakt dono kinaron se poori nadi ki yatra karte hain. Kaha jata hai ki jo vyakti shraddha aur niyam se Narmada Parikrama karta hai, uske sabhi paap nasht ho jate hain aur use moksh ki prapti hoti hai.
Narmada Mata ki katha hume yah sandesh deti hai ki prakriti swayam Devi swaroop hai aur uska samman karna hi saccha dharm hai. Narmada ji karuna, pavitrata aur jeevan dene wali shakti ka prateek hain, jo sadaiv bhakton ka kalyan karti hain.॥
