________________ "114 karmayogI zrI kesarImalajI surANA abhinandana grantha : SaSTha khaNDa The name of Bhama Shah is remembered throughout Rajputana with as tender affection and reverence as that of Maharana Pratap. Bharmal's two sons Bhama Shah and Tarachand grew up dashing soldier and capable administrator and fought in the battle of Holdighati under Maharana Pratap. He made Bhama Shah his pradhan and appointed Tarachand to the charge of Godwar district. During the critical years of Pratap's fortune Bhama Shah raided Akbar's territory of Malva ard brought a booty of twenty lakhs of rupees and twenty thousand asharfis to the Maharana.........Bhama Shah was neither Netaji Palkar nor Nana Fadnavis." nissandeha hI bhAmAzAha kI prazaMsA meM jo kucha bhI kahA jAya, paryApta nahIM hogaa| vaha eka saccA dezabhakta, tyAgI aura balidAnI puruSa thaa| vaha pratApa kI taraha Ana-bAna kA pakkA thaa| vaha kaThina se kaThina saMkaToM meM avicalita evaM dRr3ha rahane vAlA yoddhA thaa| usakA udAtta naitika caritra, usakI svAmibhakti aura deza-rakSA ke liye sarvasva samarpaNakArI bhAvanA, usakA adamya sAhasa aura zaurya, sainya saMcAlana kI dRSTi se usakA ucca kauzala aura zAsana vyavasthA meM nipuNatA bhAmAzAha apane ina guNoM ke kAraNa mahArANA pratApa kA atipriya evaM sarvAdhika vizvAsapAtra sahayogI bana gyaa| isameM koI sandeha nahIM hai ki pratApa kI saphalatA meM bhAmAzAha jaise karmavIra kA atyanta amUlya yogadAna rahA hai aura yahI kAraNa hai ki svatantratA ke amara senAnI mahArANA pratApa ke sAtha bhAmAzAha kA nAma abhinna rUpa se jur3a gayA hai| bhAmAzAha kA dehAvasAna vi0 saM0 1656 mAgha zuklA 11 (27 janavarI) meM huA jaba vaha sirpha 52 varSa kA thaa| 1.
