katha

ek samay sabhi devataoan ke sath mean brahma-vishnu milakar bhagavan shiv ke pas ae, jo ki (amarakantak) mekal parvat par samadhisth the. ve aandhakasur rakshas ka vadh kar shaant-sahaj samadhi mean baithe the. anek prakar se stuti-prarthana karane par shivaji ne aankhean kholian aur upasthit devataoan ka samman kiya. devataoan ne nivedan kiya- he bhagavanh‌! ham devata bhogoan mean rat rahane se, bahut-se rakshasoan ka vadh karane ke karan hamane anek pap kie haian, unaka nivaran kaise hoga ap hi kuchh upay bataie. tab shivaji ki bhrikuti se ek tejomay bindu prithvi par gira aur kuchh hi der bad ek kanya ke roop mean parivartit hua. us kanya ka nam narmada rakha gaya aur use anek varadanoan se sajjit kiya gaya.

'maghai ch saptamayaan dastramean ch ravidine.
madhyahn samaye ram bhaskaren krimagate॥'

magh shukl saptami ko makar rashi soory madhyahn kal ke samay narmadaji ko jal roop mean bahane ka adesh diya. tab narmadaji prarthana karate hue boli- 'bhagavanh‌! sansar ke papoan ko maian kaise door kar sakooangi?' tab bhagavan vishnu ne ashirvad roop mean vaktavy diya-

'narmade tvean mahabhaga sarv papahari bhav. tvadatsu yaah shilaah sarva shiv kalpa bhavantu taah.'

arthath tum sabhi papoan ka haran karane vali hogi tatha tumhare jal ke patthar shiv-tuly pooje jaeange.
tab narmada ne shivaji se var maanga. jaise uttar mean ganga svarg se akar prasiddh huee hai, usi prakar se dakshin ganga ke nam se prasiddh hoooan. shivaji ne narmadaji ko ajar-amar varadan aur asthi-panjar rakhiya shiv roop mean parivartit hone ka ashirvad diya. isaka praman markandey rrishi ne diya, jo ki ajar-amar haian. unhoanne kee kalp dekhe haian. isaka praman markandey puran mean hai.

mahattv

narmadaji ka tat surbhiksh mana gaya hai. poorv mean bhi jab sookha p da tha tab anek rrishiyoan ne akar prarthanaean kian ki bhagavanh‌ aisi avastha mean hamean kya karana chahie aur kahaan jana chahie? ap trikalajn haian tatha dirghayu bhi haian. tab markandey rrishi ne kaha ki kurukshetr tatha uttar pradesh ko tyag kar dakshin ganga tat par nivas karean. narmada kinare apani tatha sabhi ke pranoan ki raksha karean.
