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.

Leela of Lord Krishna with Kumbar of the bondage of 84 Lack Yoonis

Leela of Lord Krishna with Kumbar...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

As all of us know. Lord Krishna did numbers of Leelayen with the Gopis. Krishna steal butter churn from Gopiya and Gopiya do complaint with Maiya Yasodha. It has happened many times. Still Lord Krishna continue in his way.

Once upon a time Yashoda Maiya were fed with the complaints of Lord Krishna and she ran behind the lord with a stick. When the Lord saw her in anger, Prabhu ran to his rescue.

LeelaThen prabhu ji came to a Potter(Kumbar), Kumbar was busy making a pitcher of their soil. But as soon Kumbar saw Lord Krishna, he is very to have this opportunity. Kumbar knew that Shree Krishna is the universal god. Then Prabhu ji said to Kumbar “My mother is very angry on me today, Maiya is coming after me with a rod. Brother, let me hide somewhere.”

Then, Kumbar hided the Lord under a big pot. Maiya Yashoda came, there were a few moments and asked Kumbar and said – “Why, Kumbar! You’ve seen Kanhaiya somewhere?” Kumbar has said – “No, Maiya! I have not seen your Kanhaiya.” Lord Krishna were listening all these things hiding under a big pitcher. Maiya then left the room.”

Now, Lord Krishna says to Kumbar ” Kumbar Ji, let me out and lose the pot, I want to get out of this.”

Kumbar said - “No, prabhu ji. The Lord! Please, give me promise. You will set me free from bondage of the 84 Lack Yoonis (Births)”

Prabhu Ji smiled and said – “Well, I promise to get you rid out of 84 Lack Yoonis (Births). Now let me out.”

Kumbar said – “I am not alone, the Lord live! for all of people in my family, give me promise to free them from the bondage of 84 Lack Yoonis (Births). Then, I will let you out.”

Prabhu Ji says – “Okay, let them be free from the bondage of the 84 Lack Yoonis (Births) and species I promise. Now let me out of the pitcher.”

Kumbar now says – “Just, sovereign live! This is a last request. Please fulfil this one, then I’ll let you out of the pitcher.”

Prabhu Ji said – “tell, What you want to say?”

Kumbar said – “The Lord! The bottom of the pitcher you’re hiding, My bulls have loaded the soil for this pot. Please, eighty-four of these bulls are also free from the bondage of the promise.”

Prabhu Ji’s - “love for Kumbar delighted. God also full filed his promise to put these bulls free from the bondage of 84 Lack Yoonis (Births).”

Lord said – “Now all your wish has come true, now let me out of the pitcher.”

Kumbar then says – “Not now, Lord! Just the desire and a final. Please complete it and that’s it. The dialogue between us, the creature hearing this or remembering this leela. Please put them free from the bondage of 84 Lack Yoonis (Births). Just give the word , I ‘ll let you out of the pitcher.”

After listening to the words of Kumbar. The loving Lord Krishna and was very happy to meet this desire of Kumbar.

Then, finnaly. Kumbar removed the pitcher. He did, sashtang pranam to the Lord. He washed the Shree Charan of Prabhu ji and drank that charanamrit.

Now, Just imagine the look. The Little Shree Krishna, who can take the seven miles tall Govardhana Parvat on his little finger, then why, he could not have a pitcher.”

But not without love Rijhee Natwar Nand Kishore. No matter how to sacrifice, to rituals, how to donate, no matter how to love, but love is not the mere creature of the mind. Without love you can't find the Lord Krishna.


Original Leela
प्रभु श्री कृष्ण ने गोपियों के साथ बहुत-सी लीलायें की हैं। श्री कृष्ण गोपियों की मटकी फोड़ते और माखन चुराते और गोपियाँ श्री कृष्ण का उलाहना लेकर यशोदा मैया के पास जातीं। ऐसा बहुत बार हुआ।

एक बार की बात है कि यशोदा मैया प्रभु श्री कृष्ण के उलाहनों से तंग आ गयीं और छड़ी लेकर श्री कृष्ण की ओर दौड़ी। जब प्रभु ने अपनी मैया को क्रोध में देखा तो वह अपना बचाव करने के लिए भागने लगे।

भागते-भागते श्री कृष्ण एक कुम्भार के पास पहुँचे। कुम्भार तो अपने मिट्टी के घड़े बनाने में व्यस्त था। लेकिन जैसे ही कुम्भार ने श्री कृष्ण को देखा तो वह बहुत प्रसन्न हुआ। कुम्भार जानता था कि श्री कृष्ण साक्षात् परमेश्वर हैं। तब प्रभु ने कुम्भार से कहा कि ‘कुम्भार जी, आज मेरी मैया मुझ पर बहुत क्रोधित है। मैया छड़ी लेकर मेरे पीछे आ रही है। भैया, मुझे कहीं छुपा लो।’

तब कुम्भार ने श्री कृष्ण को एक बडे से मटके के नीचे छिपा दिया। कुछ ही क्षणों में मैया यशोदा भी वहाँ आ गयीं और कुम्भार से पूछने लगी – ‘क्यूँ रे, कुम्भार! तूने मेरे कन्हैया को कहीं देखा है, क्या?’

कुम्भार ने कह दिया – ‘नहीं, मैया! मैंने कन्हैया को नहीं देखा।’ श्री कृष्ण ये सब बातें बडे से घड़े के नीचे छुपकर सुन रहे थे। मैया तो वहाँ से चली गयीं।

अब प्रभु श्री कृष्ण कुम्भार से कहते हैं – ‘कुम्भार जी, यदि मैया चली गयी हो तो मुझे इस घड़े से बाहर निकालो।’

कुम्भार बोला – ‘ऐसे नहीं, प्रभु जी! पहले मुझे चौरासी लाख यानियों के बन्धन से मुक्त करने का वचन दो।’ भगवान मुस्कुराये और कहा – ‘ठीक है, मैं तुम्हें चौरासी लाख योनियों से मुक्त करने का वचन देता हूँ। अब तो मुझे बाहर निकाल दो।’

कुम्भार कहने लगा – ‘मुझे अकेले नहीं, प्रभु जी! मेरे परिवार के सभी लोगों को भी चौरासी लाख योनियों के बन्धन से मुक्त करने का वचन दोगे तो मैं आपको इस घड़े से बाहर निकालूँगा।’

प्रभु जी कहते हैं – ‘चलो ठीक है, उनको भी चौरासी लाख योनियों के बन्धन से मुक्त होने का मैं वचन देता हूँ। अब तो मुझे घड़े से बाहर निकाल दो ।’

अब कुम्भार कहता है – ‘बस, प्रभु जी! एक विनती और है। उसे भी पूरा करने का वचन दे दो तो मैं आपको घड़े से बाहर निकाल दूँगा।’

भगवान बोले – ‘वो भी बता दे, क्या कहना चाहते हो?’

कुम्भार कहने लगा – ‘प्रभु जी! जिस घड़े के नीचे आप छुपे हो, उसकी मिट्टी मेरे बैलों के ऊपर लाद के लायी गयी है। मेरे इन बैलों को भी चौरासी के बन्धन से मुक्त करने का वचन दो।’

भगवान ने कुम्भार के प्रेम पर प्रसन्न होकर उन बैलों को भी चौरासी के बन्धन से मुक्त होने का वचन दिया।’

प्रभु बोले – ‘अब तो तुम्हारी सब इच्छा पूरी हो गयी, अब तो मुझे घड़े से बाहर निकाल दो।’

तब कुम्भार कहता है – ‘अभी नहीं, भगवन! बस, एक अन्तिम इच्छा और है। उसे भी पूरा कर दीजिये और वो ये है – जो भी प्राणी हम दोनों के बीच के इस संवाद को सुनेगा, उसे भी आप चौरासी लाख योनियों के बन्धन से मुक्त करोगे। बस, यह वचन दे दो तो मैं आपको इस घड़े से बाहर निकाल दूँगा।’

कुम्भार की प्रेम भरी बातों को सुन कर प्रभु श्री कृष्ण बहुत खुश हुए और कुम्भार की इस इच्छा को भी पूरा करने का वचन दिया।

फिर कुम्भार ने बाल श्री कृष्ण को घड़े से बाहर निकाल दिया। उनके चरणों में साष्टांग प्रणाम किया। प्रभु जी के चरण धोये और चरणामृत पीया। अपनी पूरी झोंपड़ी में चरणामृत का छिड़काव किया और प्रभु जी के गले लगकर इतना रोये क़ि प्रभु में ही विलीन हो गये।

जरा सोच करके देखिये, जो बाल श्री कृष्ण सात कोस लम्बे-चौड़े गोवर्धन पर्वत को अपनी इक्क्नी अंगुली पर उठा सकते हैं, तो क्या वो एक घड़ा नहीं उठा सकते थे।

लेकिन बिना प्रेम रीझे नहीं नटवर नन्द किशोर। कोई कितने भी यज्ञ करे, अनुष्ठान करे, कितना भी दान करे, चाहे कितनी भी भक्ति करे, लेकिन जब तक मन में प्राणी मात्र के लिए प्रेम नहीं होगा, प्रभु श्री कृष्ण मिल नहीं सकते।

।। हरी व्यापक सर्वत्र समाना ।।
।। प्रेम से प्रकट होई मैं जाना ।।

‘मोहन प्रेम बिना नहीं मिलता, चाहे कोई कर ल्यो कोटि उपाय।’
करोड़ों उपाय भी चाहे कोई कर लो तो प्रभु को प्रेम के बिना कोई पा नहीं सकता।

🙏 जय श्री कृष्ण जी 🙏

Benefits of Chanting the Name of Shree Dattatreya Prabhu

Benefits of Chanting the Name of ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

In the recent times, since spiritual practice and the rituals of shraddha/bhagti bhawna (Rites for the deceased) are not performed as before, most people face problems due to the subtle-bodies of ancestors. Only evolved individuals can advise if there is a possibility of a problem in the future or if an existing problem is due to the subtle-bodies of deceased ancestors.

To prevent problems or to overcome a mild problem, chant ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ daily for one to two hours. At other times, to prevent problems arising out of destiny and for spiritual progress, an average individual or seeker in the primary stage should chant the Name of his Kuladevata (Family Shri) as much as is possible.

If you are not fortunate enough to be guided by an evolved individual, then inferring that inability to find a suitable marriage partner, marital disharmony, inability to conceive, miscarriages, giving birth to a premature child, giving birth to a retarded or handicapped child, deaths in childhood etc. are problems which could be due to subtle-bodies of deceased ancestors, undertake spiritual practice as advised ahead.

If the problem is moderate in nature, chant ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ along with the Name of your Kuladevata for two to four hours daily. Also, go to a Datta temple every Thursday and perform seven circumambulations, and chant one to two malas of ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ in the temple. Do this for about a year. After this, chant three malasof ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ everyday.
By chanting the Name of Shri Datta in Pitrupaksha(The dark fortnight of the Hindu lunar month of Bhadrapad, when rites are performed for the deceased ancestors), the onward sojourn of the ancestors is faster. Hence, during this period, chant for atleast six hours (or seventy-two malas) daily.

Tirath Sthal
Mahurgad, Maharashtra (MAHURGUD) is the famous place in the Mahanubhava Panth. It is the birth place of Lord Shree Dattatreya. This place is visited by thousands of Pilgrims throughout the year.

Miracle of rebirth of Prince Haripaldev

Miracle of rebirth of Prince Hari...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Miracle of rebirth of Prince Haripaldev. In other words, dead Haripaldev had come alive once again or in different way, an (Parmeshwar) Avatar had come on this Earth.

This Leela is about the Miracle of rebirth of Prince Haripaldev. Leela happened as descibed below. At the same time, miracle moment has just taken place. Everyone saw the dead Prince Haripaldev opening his eyes and getting up. Due to this rebirth of Prince the people became happy and started praying to God. This amazing rebirth was expelled all over the state of Gurjara Kingdom.

The Prince was brought back to his palace with great joy. All people were dancing, singing by the rebirth of Prince. The Royal Family was fully excited to see the Prince coming back home. Haripaldev’s father Vishaldev, a philosophical learner started wondering about this incident. He could not resolve the mystery of his son coming back to life. At that time yogis were having the technique (vidya) which they can give up their body and enter the body of someone else. So, Vishaldev sent his man (spy) to find whether the dead body of yogis are seen nearby. After searching all the Gurjara Kingdom no dead body of any yogis were found.

Due to this, Vishaldev was happy and he thought that no dead body or technique have been used to rebirth the Prince body. Finally, Vishaldev enquired from his daughter-in-law Kamla Devi whether she have noticed any change in Haripaldev’s behavior subsequent to his ‘Death and Revival’. After giving this question some thought, Kamla Devi too replied in the negative. She said she did not notice any change in her husband’s behavior. Everything was just fine as it was before.

Vishaldev was at the sea side to understand the rebirth of Prince. After few days, Vishaldev’s man (spy) came to know about the incident which has been occurred at faraway place known as “Pataal Gufa” in Dwarka. There was renowned Yogi-Parmeshwar “Shri Chakrapani Maharaj (also known as Shri Changdev Raul of Dwarka) had given his body because of obduracy shown by Yogini Kamakhya of Kamrup. The Yogini was bent upon unsettling the Raul, but on command from the divine Adiguru, Shri Dattatray Prabhu, the Raul had vowed for lifelong tapasya.

Already, the Yogini was known to have ruined the celibacy of quite a large number of sages. But given the divine yogic power, Raul possessed, making him bow before her desire turned out to be an impossible task for the Yogini. In fact, for entering into Raul’s “Pataal Gufa” itself, she kept on waiting for seven days and night with her one foot inside and one foot outside the entrance of the Gufa. However, Raul did not yield to her illicit demand. Due to this illicit demand, Shri Chakrapani Maharaj, finally decided to give up his physical body and move out to someone else’s. By this, Raul entered into the dead body of Prince Haripaldev in Bharauch. In other words, dead Haripaldev had come alive once again or in different way, an (Parmeshwar) Avtaar had come on this Earth.

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|

Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita one of the holy books of Hinduism and Mahanubhava

Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita one of th...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita one of the holy books of Hinduism. Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita is written thousands of years ago consists of 18 chapters. It is the samvad of Lord Shree Krishna and the Dhanusdhardi Arjuna. Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita is freely offering this presentation of Sri Mad Bhagavad Gita to the Earth as a gift to humanity. The date of the Kurukshetra war and the delivery of Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna by Sri Krishna are supposed to be around 3139 BCE.
There are three paths which lead directly to establishing a relationship with God. According to the authority of Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita these paths have been designated as
1. The yoga of perfect actions.
2. The yoga of perfect devotion.
3. The yoga of perfect knowledge.

Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita text is organized in twelve Skandhas (books) subdivided into 332 Adhyayas (chapters), and has between 16,000 to 18,000 verses, depending on the manuscript version. Of the 12 books, it is the 10th book with about 4,000 verses that has been the most popular, studied and recognized. The text asserts that it is Krishna in literary form.
Each chapter is called a yoga. Yoga is the science of the individual consciousness attaining communion with the Ultimate Consciousness. So each chapter is a highly specialized yoga revealing the path of attaining realization of the Ultimate Truth. The first six chapters have been classified as the Karma Yoga section as they mainly deal with the science of the individual consciousness attaining communion with the Ultimate Consciousness through actions.

These chapters are:
Attharah adhaya of Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita

1. Arjuna–Visada Yoga Prathama adhaya
Arjuna has requested Krishna to take his rath between the two armies, where he can see to who were in his opposition and who were with him . His growing dejection is described as he fears losing his friends and relatives as a consequence of Yudh.

2. Sankhya Yoga Dwitiya adhaya
After asking Shree Krishna for help, Shree Krishna teched him the Karma yoga, Gyaana yoga, Sankhya yoga, Buddhi yoga and the immortal nature of the soul Atma amar hai, ise koi nhi maar skta.. Sankhya Yog nam Dwitiya adhaya here refers to one of six orthodox schools of the Hindu Philosophy. This chapter is often considered the gyaan of the entire Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita.

3. Karma Yoga Tritiya adhaya
Shree Krishna explains how the Karma yoga – Performance of prescribed duties, but without attachment to results, is the appropriate course of action for Arjuna. Shree Krishna teached him how Karma will take him to the purification of soul.

4. Gyaana–Karma-Sanyasa Yoga Chaturth adhaya
Shree Krishna exposed that, he has lived through many births through prarambh of Universe. Always teaching yoga for the protection of the pious and the destruction of the impious and stresses the importance of accepting a guru. Shree Krishna teach him to remove the shanshya from his mind and approach to Karma.

5. Karma–Sanyasa Yoga Pancham adhaya
Arjuna asks Lord Shree Krishna if it is better to forgo action or to act. The Lord Shree Krishna answers that both are ways to the same goal but that acting in Karma yoga is superior. Arthat Prabhu shared Gyaan and Karam yoga both take him to Mokash, but Karam yoga is superior to Gyan yoga.

6. Atmasanyam Yoga Shasht adhaya
Krishna describes the Ashtanga yoga. Then, further throw light on the difficulties of the mind. How to gain the stable state of mind where nobody can influence you and the techniques by which mastery of the mind might be gained. Then your warrior will help you to understand the difference between Moah and Prem.

जय श्री चक्रधर स्वामी जी
नियमानुसार एक दिन आश्रमकी देखभाल आउसा कर रही थी। एक कुत्तेको आया देखकर उसने उसे पत्थर मारा। पत्थर लगते ही कुत्ता चिल्लाता हुआ पूँछ दबाकर बाहरकी ओर भाग गया। कुत्तेका रोना था कि उधर भगवान दोनों हाथोंमें अपना मस्तक थामकर बैठ गये।
भगवानको श्रीमुकुट थामे देख आउसाका रंग उड गया। वह भागकर उनके पास जा पहुँची। उसने अकुलाकर खिन्न मनसे पूछा - 'महाराज! मैंने मारा तो कुत्तेको है, आप कयों मस्तक थामकर बैठ गये हैं ?'
भगवानने समझाया - 'आउसा ! ईश्वरस्वरूप सर्वत्र व्यापक है। किसी जीव पर किये प्रहारका इसीलिये वह अनुभव करता है। तुमने उस प्राणीको पत्थर मारा, उसकी पीड़ा हमें हुई, इसीलिए हमने मस्तक थाम लिया।' फिर उन्होंने कुछ थमकर पूछा - 'बताओ तो तुमने उसे मारा कयों है ?'
आउसाने उत्तर दिया, 'महाराज! कल यही कुत्ता नागदेवके भिक्षान्नकी झोली उठा ले गया था। आज यह पुनः कुछ उठानेकी नीयतसे आया था। यदि मैं इसे न मारती, तो यह अवश्य ही आज भी कुछ ले भागता। अतः मैंने उसे समुचित दंड दिया है , तो कोई अपराध नहीं किया।'
भगवानने कहा, 'आउसा ! मनुष्यके समान इसे पकाकर खिलानेवाला तो कोई है नहीं, जहाँ जाकर यह आरामसे खायेगा। इस बेचारेने तो इसी तरह घूम-फिरकर पेट भरना है। तुम अपनी चीजोंको सम्भालकर रखो, उसके लिए इसे क्यों दंडित करती हो ? यह तो खुद तुम्हारा दोष है। इस तरह वस्तुओंको असुरक्षित रखोगी, तो यह तो मुँह मारेगा ही।'
भगवानके उदात्त विचारोंके आगे आउसा नतमस्तक हो गई और उसने *अपने अपराधकी क्षमा माँगकर पुनः वैसा न करनेकी प्रतिज्ञा ली।

जय श्री चक्रधर स्वामी जी
अगले दिन जब भगवान जी पूजा अवसर हो जाने के बाद विहरण के लिए छिन्नस्थली गए तो वहां सिंह नारायण मंदिर के दक्षिणी भाग में पीपल वृक्ष के नीचे आसनस्थ हुए! कुछ समय हो जाने के बाद बाईसा माताजी ने भोजन के लिए आवाज लगाई तो स्वामी जो ने कहा, बाई यह पेट कुछ मांग नहीं रहा है!

इतने में मार्तंड को कहा कि मंदिर की छत पर चढ़कर दूर से आ रहे व्यक्तियों के विषय में बताएं! मार्तंड ने देखा कि इन्द्रभट्ट अपने सिर पर बहुत बड़ा टोकरा रखे बढ़ रहे हैं और साथ में द्वारावती से आए ब्रह्मचारिदेव नाम का ब्राह्मण भी है! भगवान जी की आज्ञा पाकर मार्तंड दौड़ते हुए इन्द्रभट्ट के सिर से टकरा उतारने लगे और स्वयं भोजन उठा कर ले आए! उस दिन इन्द्रभट्ट के घर श्राद्ध था! इनका विश्वास था कि भगवान जी के प्रति भोजन समर्पित करने से सब चरितार्थ हो जाता है! यहां ही सभी तीर्थ स्थान हैं! भगवान जी ने भी उनके भाग्य की बढ़ाई की!

जय श्री चक्रधर स्वामी जी
एक दिन भगवान जी प्रातः काल का पूजा अवसर हो जाने के बाद छिन्नस्थली विहरण के लिए गए! वहां से सिंह नारायण के मंदिर में आकर आसन पर बैठे! इतने में ही इन्द्रभट्ट आए और सम्मुख बैठ गए! उन्हें भोजन के लिए नियंत्रण देना था किंतु याद ही नहीं रहा! आसमान में बादल देखते ही महाराज ने संकेत किया कि इन्द्रभट्ट तुम शीघ्र अपने घोगर गांव चले जाओ अन्यथा भीग जाओगे!

इन्द्रभट्ट बचते हुए जैसे ही गांव पहुंचे वैसे ही बारिश शुरू हो गई! इधर भक्तजन कपड़े का चंदोवा बना कर भगवान जी के ऊपर लगा चलने लगे! कभी जानबूझ कर लीला के हेतु से महाराज पीछे रह जाते तो कभी आगे निकल आते! जब तक भक्तजन चांदोवा आगे पीछे करते तब तक महाराज भीग जाते! इस प्रकार उनके वस्त्र गीले देख रेइनायक के घर से दूसरे वस्त्र मंगवाए गए! सभी भक्तों ने भी राजमठ वापिस लौट कर दूसरे वस्त्र धारण किए!
