भिखारिन -रविन्द्र नाथ टैगोर

is lekh ka punarikshan evan sampadan hona avashyak hai. ap isamean sahayata kar sakate haian. "sujhav"

andhi pratidin mandir ke daravaze par jakar kh di hoti, darshan karane vale bahar nikalate to vah apana hath phaila deti aur namrata se kahati- babooji, andhi par daya ho jae.

vah janati thi ki mandir mean ane vale sahriday aur shradhdalu hua karate haian. usaka yah anuman asaty n tha. ane-jane vale do-char paise usake hath par rakh hi dete. andhi unako duaean deti aur unako sahridayata ko sarahati. striyaan bhi usake palle mean tho da-bahut anaj dal jaya karati thian.

prat: se sandhya tak vah isi prakar hath phailae kh di rahati. usake pashchath man-hi-man bhagavan ko pranam karati aur apani lathi ke sahare jhoanp di ka path grahan karati. usaki jhoanp di nagar se bahar thi. raste mean bhi yachana karati jati kintu rahagiroan mean adhik sankhya shvet vastroan valoan ki hoti, jo paise dene ki apeksha jhi dakiyaan diya karate haian. tab bhi andhi nirash n hoti aur usaki yachana barabar jari rahati. jhoanp di tak pahuanchate-pahuanchate use do-char paise aur mil jate.

jhoanp di ke samip pahuanchate hi ek das varsh ka l daka uchhalata-koodata ata aur usase chipat jata. andhi tatolakar usake mastak ko choomati.

bachcha kaun hai? kisaka hai? kahaan se aya? is bat se koee parichay nahian tha. paanch varsh hue pas-p dos valoan ne use akela dekha tha. inhian dinoan ek din sandhya-samay logoan ne usaki god mean ek bachcha dekha, vah ro raha tha, andhi usaka mukh choom-choomakar use chup karane ka prayatn kar rahi thi. vah koee asadharan ghatana n thi, at: kisi ne bhi n poochha ki bachcha kisaka hai. usi din se yah bachcha andhi ke pas tha aur prasann tha. usako vah apane se achchha khilati aur pahanati.

andhi ne apani jhoanp di mean ek haandi ga d rakhi thi. sandhya-samay jo kuchh maangakar lati usamean dal deti aur use kisi vastu se dhaanp deti. isalie ki doosare vyaktiyoan ki drishti us par n p de. khane ke lie ann kafi mil jata tha. usase kam chalati. pahale bachche ko pet bharakar khilati phir svayan khati. rat ko bachche ko apane vaksh se lagakar vahian p d rahati. prat:kal hote hi usako khila-pilakar phir mandir ke dvar par ja kh di hoti.

kashi mean seth banarasidas bahut prasidhd vyakti haian. bachcha-bachcha unaki kothi se parichit hai. bahut b de deshabhakt aur dharmatma haian. dharm mean unaki b di ruchi hai. din ke barah baje tak seth snan-dhyan mean sanlagn rahate. kothi par har samay bhi d lagi rahati. karz ke ichchhuk to ate hi the, parantu aise vyaktiyoan ka bhi taanta bandha rahata jo apani pooanji sethaji ke pas dharohar roop mean rakhane ate the. saik doan bhikhari apani jama-pooanji inhian sethaji ke pas jama kar jate. andhi ko bhi yah bat jnat thi, kintu pata nahian ab tak vah apani kamaee yahaan jama karane mean kyoan hichakichati rahi.

usake pas kafi rupaye ho ge the, haandi lagabhag poori bhar gee thi. usako shanka thi ki koee chura n le. ek din sandhya-samay andhi ne vah haandi ukha di aur apane phate hue aanchal mean chhipakar sethaji ki kothi par pahuanchi.

sethaji bahi-khate ke prishth ulat rahe the, unhoanne poochha- kya hai budhiya?

aandhi ne haandi unake age saraka di aur darate-darate kaha- sethaji, ise apane pas jama kar lo, maian aandhi, apahij kahaan rakhati phirooangi?

sethaji ne haandi ki or dekhakar kaha-isamean kya hai?

andhi ne uttar diya- bhikh maang-maangakar apane bachche ke lie do-char paise sangrah kiye haian, apane pas rakhate darati hooan, kripaya inhean ap apani kothi mean rakh lean.

sethaji ne munim ki or sanket karate hue kaha- bahi mean jama kar lo. phir budhiya se poochha-tera nam kya hai?

aandhi ne apana nam bataya, munimaji ne nakadi ginakar usake nam se jama kar li aur vah sethaji ko ashirvad deti huee apani jhoanp di mean chali gee.

bhag 3

do varsh bahut sukh ke sath bite. isake pashchath ek din l dake ko jvar ne a dabaya. aandhi ne dava-daroo ki, jha d-phooank se bhi kam liya, tone-totake ki pariksha ki, parantu sampoorn prayatn vyarth sidhd hue. l dake ki dasha din-pratidin buri hoti gee, aandhi ka hriday toot gaya, sahas ne javab de diya, nirash ho gee. parantu phir dhyan aya ki sanbhavat: d aauktar ke ilaj se fayada ho jae. is vichar ke ate hi vah girati-p dati sethaji ki kothi par a pahuanchi. sethaji upasthit the.

aandhi ne kaha- sethaji meri jama-pooanji mean se das-paanch rupaye mujhe mil jayean to b di kripa ho. mera bachcha mar raha hai, d aauktar ko dikhaooangi.

sethaji ne kathor svar mean kaha- kaisi jama pooanji? kaise rupaye? mere pas kisi ke rupaye jama nahian haian.

aandhi ne rote hue uttar diya- do varsh hue maian apake pas dharohar rakh gee thi. de dijie b di daya hogi.

sethaji ne munim ki or rahasyamayi drishti se dekhate hue kaha- munimaji, jara dekhana to, isake nam ki koee pooanji jama hai kya? tera nam kya hai ri?

aandhi ki jan-mean-jan aee, asha bandhi. pahala uttar sunakar usane socha ki seth beeeman hai, kintu ab sochane lagi sambhavat: use dhyan n raha hoga. aisa dharmi vyakti bhi bhala kahian jhooth bol sakata hai. usane apana nam bata diya. ulat-palatakar dekha. phir kaha- nahian to, is nam par ek paee bhi jama nahian hai.

aandhi vahian jami baithi rahi. usane ro-rokar kaha- sethaji, paramatma ke nam par, dharm ke nam par, kuchh de dijie. mera bachcha ji jaega. maian jivan-bhar apake gun gaooangi.

parantu patthar mean joank n lagi. sethaji ne krudhd hokar uttar diya- jati hai ya naukar ko bulaooan.

aandhi lathi tekakar kh di ho gee aur sethaji ki or muanh karake boli- achchha bhagavan tumhean bahut de. aur apani jhoanp di ki or chal di.

yah ashish n tha balki ek dukhi ka shap tha. bachche ki dasha big dati gee, dava-daroo huee hi nahian, fayada kyoan kar hota. ek din usaki avastha chintajanak ho gee, pranoan ke lale p d gaye, usake jivan se aandhi bhi nirash ho gee. sethaji par rah-rahakar use krodh ata tha. itana dhani vyakti hai, do-char rupaye de deta to kya chala jata aur phir maian usase kuchh dan nahian maang rahi thi, apane hi rupaye maangane gee thi. sethaji se ghrina ho gee.

baithe-baithe usako kuchh dhyan aya. usane bachche ko apani god mean utha liya aur thokarean khati, girati-p dati, sethaji ke pas pahuanchi aur unake dvar par dharana dekar baith gee. bachche ka sharir jvar se bhabhak raha tha aur aandhi ka kaleja bhi.

ek naukar kisi kam se bahar aya. aandhi ko baitha dekhakar usane sethaji ko soochana di, sethaji ne ajna di ki use bhaga do.

naukar ne aandhi se chale jane ko kaha, kintu vah us sthan se n hili. marane ka bhay dikhaya, par vah tas-se-mas n huee. usane phir andar jakar kaha ki vah nahian talati.

sethaji svayan bahar padhare. dekhate hi pahachan gaye. bachche ko dekhakar unhean bahut ashchary hua ki usaki shakl-soorat unake mohan se bahut milati-julati hai. sat varsh hue tab mohan kisi mele mean kho gaya tha. usaki bahut khoj ki, par usaka koee pata n mila. unhean smaran ho aya ki mohan ki jaangh par ek lal rang ka chinh tha. is vichar ke ate hi unhoanne aandhi ki god ke bachche ki jaangh dekhi. chinh avashy tha parantu pahale se kuchh b da. unako vishvas ho gaya ki bachcha unhian ka hai. parantu turant usako chhinakar apane kaleje se chipata liya. sharir jvar se tap raha tha. naukar ko d aauktar lane ke lie bheja aur svayan makan ke andar chal diye.

aandhi kh di ho gee aur chillane lagi-mere bachche ko n le jao, mere rupaye to hajam kar gaye ab kya mera bachcha bhi mujhase chhinoge?

sethaji bahut chintit hue aur kaha-bachcha mera hai, yahi ek bachcha hai, sat varsh poorv kahian kho gaya tha ab mila hai, so ise kahian nahian jane dooanga aur lakh yatn karake bhi isake pran bachaooanga.

aandhi ne ek zor ka thahaka lagaya-tumhara bachcha hai, isalie lakh yatn karake bhi use bachaoge. mera bachcha hota to use mar jane dete, kyoan? yah bhi koee nyay hai? itane dinoan tak khoon-pasina ek karake usako pala hai. maian usako apane hath se nahian jane dooangi.

sethaji ki ajib dasha thi. kuchh karate-dharate ban nahian p data tha. kuchh der vahian maun kh de rahe phir makan ke andar chale gaye. andhi kuchh samay tak kh di roti rahi phir vah bhi apani jhoanp di ki or chal di.

doosare din prat:kal prabhu ki kripa huee ya dava ne jadoo ka-sa prabhav dikhaya. mohan ka jvar utar gaya. hosh ane par usane aankh kholi to sarvapratham shabd usaki jaban se nikala, maan.

chahuanor aparichit shaklean dekhakar usane apane netr phir band kar liye. us samay se usaka jvar phir adhik hona arambh ho gaya. maan-maan ki rat lagi huee thi, d aauktaroan ne javab de diya, sethaji ke hath-paanv phool gaye, chahuanor aandhera dikhaee p dane laga.

kya karooan ek hi bachcha hai, itane dinoan bad mila bhi to mrityu usako apane changul mean daba rahi hai, ise kaise bachaooan?

sahasa unako andhi ka dhyan aya. patni ko bahar bheja ki dekho kahian vah ab tak dvar par n baithi ho. parantu vah vahaan kahaan? sethaji ne phitan taiyar karaee aur basti se bahar usaki jhoanp di par pahuanche. jhoanp di bina dvar ke thi, andar ge. dekha andhi ek phate-purane tat par p di hai aur usake netroan se ashrudhar bah rahi hai. sethaji ne dhire se usako hilaya. usaka sharir bhi agni ki bhaanti tap raha tha.

sethaji ne kaha- budhiya! tera bachch mar raha hai, d aauktar nirash ho ge, rah-rahakar vah tujhe pukarata hai. ab too hi usake pran bacha sakati hai. chal aur mere...nahian-nahian apane bachche ki jan bacha le.

andhi ne uttar diya- marata hai to marane do, maian bhi mar rahi hooan. ham donoan svarg-lok mean phir maan-bete ki tarah mil jaeange. is lok mean sukh nahian hai, vahaan mera bachcha sukh mean rahega. maian vahaan usaki sucharoo roop se seva-sushroosha karooangi.

sethaji ro diye. aj tak unhoanne kisi ke samane sir n jhukaya tha. kintu is samay andhi ke paanvoan par gir p de aur ro-rokar kaha- mamata ki laj rakh lo, akhir tum bhi usaki maan ho. chalo, tumhare jane se vah bach jayega.

mamata shabd ne andhi ko vikal kar diya. usane turant kaha- achchha chalo.

sethaji sahara dekar use bahar laye aur phitan par bitha diya. phitan ghar ki or dau dane lagi. us samay sethaji aur andhi bhikharin donoan ki ek hi dasha thi. donoan ki yahi ichchha thi ki shighr-se-shighr apane bachche ke pas pahuanch jayean.

kothi a gee, sethaji ne sahara dekar andhi ko utara aur andar le ge. bhitar jakar andhi ne mohan ke mathe par hath phera. mohan pahachan gaya ki yah usaki maan ka hath hai. usane turant netr khol diye aur use apane samip kh de hue dekhakar kaha- maan, tum a geean.

andhi bhikharin mohan ke sirahane baith gee aur usane mohan ka sir apane god mean rakh liya. usako bahut sukh anubhav hua aur vah usaki god mean turant so gaya.

doosare din se mohan ki dasha achchhi hone lagi aur das-pandrah din mean vah bilkul svasth ho gaya. jo kam hakimoan ke joshande, vaidyoan ki pu diya aur d aauktaroan ke miksachar n kar sake vah andhi ki snehamayi seva ne poora kar diya.

mohan ke poori tarah svath ho jane par andhi ne vida maangi. sethaji ne bahut-kuchh kaha-suna ki vah unhian ke pas rah jae parantu vah sahamat n huee, vivash hokar vida karana p da. jab vah chalane lagi to sethaji ne rupayoan ki ek thaili usake hath mean de di. andhi ne maloom kiya, isamean kya hai.

sethaji ne kaha-isamean tumhare dharohar hai, tumhare rupaye. mera vah aparadh

andhi ne bat kat kar kaha-yah rupaye to maianne tumhare mohan ke lie sangrah kiye the, usi ko de dena.

andhi ne thaili vahian chho d di. aur lathi tekati huee chal di. bahar nikalakar phir usane us ghar ki or netr uthaye usake netroan se ashru bah rahe the kintu vah ek bhikharin hote hue bhi seth se mahanh thi. is samay seth yachak tha aur vah data thi.
