The Throne of Wisdom

The Beginning of a Question

Hum sab kisi na kisi se toh inspiration lete hain.

Phir woh sahi ho ya galat, passion ho ya obsession, kuch na kuch hamesha attract karta hai humein.

Hamari history bhi kuch aisi hi hai. History ke saare panne palatna thoda difficult ho sakta hai kyunki Bharat ka itihaas hi itna purana hai, par kahaniyan ek se ek hain.

Aise hi ek kahani ki shuruaat hoti hai Malwa aur India ke beech hai uske Raja, Raja Bhoj se, jo dhara Rajya se the, jo ki abhi MP mein hai.

Woh sirf apne shasan ke liye hi nahi, par learning, literature, architecture and arts se bhi jaane jaate hain. Unki story 11th century se shuru hoti hai.

I know, I know, ki kaafi purani story hai, par us story ka astitva aaj bhi hai

Haan, toh jaise humne padha ki woh almost sabhi kala mein maahir the, par usse sirf apni tareef nahi, balki unhe koi samjhe ya woh kuch samjhe, yahi bahut maayne rakhta tha.

Kabhi-kabhi woh apne darbaar jaano ko poochte ki kya hai jo Rajya ko mahaan banata hai, dhan hi sab kuch hai ya bahut kuch.

Par ek cheez jaani zaroori hai ki ek Raja Rajya jit sakta hai, sona moti aur kya nahi, but still, is uljhan mein reh sakta hai ki usse koi yaad karega aur kyun.

Saalon guzar gaye, Raja Bhoj ka raaj aage badhta gaya. Unka naam prasiddh hua aur ek naam hamesha kaanon mein goonjta raha — Bharat ke chakravarti samrat, Raja Vikramaditya.

Vikramaditya naam toh suna hi hoga, aur agar nahi suna, toh ab suno kyunki yeh famous bhi hai aur logpriy bhi

Unki tareef sabdo mein ki jaa sakti hai, kyunki ek mahaan Raja banane mein kya lagta hai? Mahanta, logon ke prati prem, sahas ya phir sujhaaye dhan ka?

Ek din Raja Bhoj ek pahar se guzar rahe the. Wahan ek kisan tha, jo ajeeb bartaav kar raha tha, jaise ki wahi Raja ho. Raja Bhoj ko yeh vyavhaar ajeeb toh lage, par aashcharya tab hue jab woh kisan jahan khada tha, wahan se utar ke bilkul normal behave karta hai.

Raja Bhoj apne aap se poochte hain, iska kya matlab hai? Par unke senapati ke uttar se woh khush nahi the.

Yeh sab soch ke Raja ke mann mein ek jigyaasa uthi, sach jaanne ki.

Par yeh toh bas shuruaat thi…

Raja Bhoj ki yeh jigyasa unhe kis sach tak le jaayegi, aur is kahani mein aage kya hoga? Yeh jaanne ke liye milte hain agle chapter mein…
