The life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj bears eloquent testimony to the persistent vitality of the Hindu race. It is an infallible cure for national despondency. Babu Ramananda Chaterjee. Editor Modern Review' I have been following the progress of your work on Shivaji ever since you first spoke of it to me. And knowing as I do the time, labour and meticulous care that you have beon bestowing upon it all along, I cannot but heartily congratulate you on the choice as well as the successful execution of the project mainly while in prison. That you are publishing your book in Gujarathi is in itself a matter for great satisfaction. To the intelligent Gujarathi such a book as yours, which offers a Maharashtrian's view about one of the greatest names in Indian History in his own mother tongue ought certainly to be welcome. To a Maharashtrian or to a student of research in Maratha History the prospect of a comprehensive life of Shivaji to be published in a sister language appears particularly gratifying. And as you have made use of all the latest material on your subject, as far at least as it was made available to you, I have no doubt that your work will occupy a very high position not only in Gujrathi literature, but also in the general Historical literature of our country. It is such precious studies like your "Life of Shivaji" which lay the foundation of a common cultural tie between provinces and pile up the treasures of respectable heritage for the prosperity. Shivaji's is a name to conjure with in Maharashtra. It is one of the articles of faith, as it were, of every Maharashtrian. Shivaji holds &. very conspicuous place in the consciousness of a Maharatta Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com

Page #21
a place perhaps only next to God. And as matters stand to day he may possibly dethrone God on the strength of any referendum. Thousands of rhetorical tributes stand recorded in the mass of journalistic and other literature and one is amused and even amazed by the variety of attitude taken by each of the admirers of Shivaji. Shivaji had, of course, had his more than liberal share of enemies and their courses are equally profusely recorded in the historical material now available about the great hero. I can quote copious instances of his having been called anything between a divine 'Avatar' and a confirmed villain. But the time when history was a mere collection of impressions of either the contemporaries or the modern historians, is long since gone. We now speak of facts and interprete them in the light of a number of social sciences which are highly enriched by annual additions of what may be called comparative history of all countrics. The days of Shivaji's being called an 'avatar' are also gone. His claims upon our respect are now firmly founded on certain well-established facts emerging out of careful research of a quarter of a century. I am greatly pleased that our "Shiva Charitra Karyalaya" contributed its mite to a systematic collection of all such material as a result of a careful study of which some old and fantastical ideas about the early life of Shivaji are dissipated. If Shivaji, the mythical hero, melts away in the furnace of Scientific research, Shivaji the political leader of Maharashtra stands forth as an embodiment of whatever was best in man. I have come accross no other personality either in historical or modern times who has not in the least suffered in the searchlight of disinterested and fearless research. Historians need not be afraid to go any depth into the private or public life of Shivaji. This cannot be said of any other man in the world placed in his position, and with equally ample opportunities and temptations. And that is the greatest tribute one can pay to the individual who had already volumes after volumes to his credit to delineate the history af his achievement. We hear too much of the changing standards of morality, however true this may be of the standards of private morality the public or political standards of morality have scarcely undergone any Whange so far as relations between beligerents are concerned and Shivaji would in no way suffer in comparison with any of the participants in the last world war. Attempts at

Page #22
improving the situation by means of international action have drastically failed and it does not sound sensible in the mouth of any students of political history to criticise Shivaji for what his peers are daily practising. I have been a close student of historical literature and the belief is slowly growing upon me that our histories were being written by interested foreigners and by people who had their own axe to grind. The Hindu Moslim question, like so many other problems, is an outcome of the particular view point which was always emphasised in depicting our struggle for independence. Now, purely historical facts do not warrant our reading the present distortions of our social relations into the past. I wonder if you have realised this point sufficiently enongh to guard yourself against falling in and leading others to fall in the same trap. I do not propose to elaborate the point here, but I should certainly sound a note of warning to all those who would seek to bring any fresh and independent viewpoint to bear upon the period of history they are studying. I wish your book all the success that it certainly deserves. N. C. Kelkar. B. A. L. L. B. Poona * At this particular critical juncture of the political evolution in India, some valuable traits in the history of this great and renowned Hindu King, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, should be of great use, to help us out of our present difficulties; one great political lesson of his life, that no modern student of politics should miss, is that political strategy, diplomacy and statesmanship, are as essential to achieve one's political goal, as undaunted courage, dogged determination, and dashing spirit. In that respect, he stands on the same high level as the greatest of modern mass leaders and revolutionaries like Lenin, Sun-yat-sen, Kemal and even Napolean. The epithet "mountain Rat" was as descriptive of his cunning and deep fore-sight as of his intrepidity and rapidity of action. No great Empire or Kingdom has been built up or maintained by heroics alone. Therefore, I have always appealed to Indian youths to pay as much attention to and study, the strategio and diplomatic

Page #23
history of Shivaji Maharaj, side by side with his heroics and wild ventures. Mere recitals and study of traditional epics like Mahabharata and Ramayana alone will not guide us in the present circumstances, whilst dealing with western diplomats. We have to deal with greatest diplomats of modern age and Shivaji's tactics of diamond cut diamond' would be of great practical utility. as in To-day, even his worst enemies and critics, the representatives of the British Crown, acknowledge his greatness and skill, and recognise him as a genius both in the battle-field, as well the Council Chambers. It is a strange irony of fate, tnat British Governors should consider it an honour and a previledge, now, to participate in functions, to perpetuate his memory and appeal to modern Maharastrian youths to emulate his glorious example. During his life-time, there was no name more detestable and dreaded by the foreigners than Shivaji's. He had acquired velocity and speed of aeroplanes and motor cars, even in days when theso machines were not invented and his sudden attack created as much panic and fright as the modern Zeppllins during the last Great war, Modern warfare has become a mechanical affair and achievements are due more to skill and science than to personal bravery and physical power; but in the days of Shivaji, his wonderful military feats, were due entirely to his personal exertions without the aid of modem appliances. It was the triumph of the man and not of science and machine. In that respect he stands above all the modern great military commanders and perhaps there are very rare instances, in the history of the world, when such phenomenal rise and success was attained in comparatively short time in the face of almost insurmountable difficulties. Let every Indian youth acquire these traits in Shivaji's character. With perseverance, patience, dogged determination, tact and courage, there is no undertaking, however difficult, that one cannot master and overcome. Khurshed. F. Nariman B. A. L. L. B. Advocate, Bombay. * There can be no doubt that Shivaji is an outstanding persona: lity in Indian history. The deeply religious life of his mother

Page #24
* imparted a tone of religious fervour to the character of her son. He braved the buffet of fortune with indomitable courage, and perseverance; and his soaring ambition coupled with undaunted heroism, inflexible fortitude, and commanding talents, raised him to a pinnacle of unapproachable grandeur. He was a staunch defender of the Hindu religion from the on-rushing waves of iconoclastic idealism which swept over the land at the time. Shivaji's unquenchable spirit of independence, his knowledge of practical statecraft and universal toleration, were only equalled by his lofty patriotism, a high standard of morality in his private life and a born leader's personal magnetism that threw a spell over all who knew him. His rare gift of judging character and a strict enforcement of discipline and morality in his camp, contributed no mean quota to his success. He infused new blood into the feeble pulses of a decadent culture and his glorious achievement was the wielding together of the heterogenious elements of the Maratha into a nation. To view the career of this truly illustrious man is to look back upon the course of a blazing star drawing it's firey arch over the concave of heaven that fixes the admiring attention to the sublunary world, and dazzles while it arrests the wondering eye. Babu Gaya Prasad Singh M. L. A. * WHEREIN DOTH SHIVAJI'S GREATNESS LIE? In my opinion the greatness of Shivaji consists in his having transformed the mentality of the Maratha nation, whom by means of his unequalled leadership he enabled to attain a foremost place among the various races of India. It is well known what a factious, turbulent and riotous life the Maratha clans of the Western hills led for over a century before the rise of Shivaji. They wasted their energy in internecine disputes, obeyed no authority and made life and property hopelessly insecure. Shivaji correctly guaged the situation, heartily joined them, to begin with, in their lawless activities, and, having quickly gained their confidence, established such a complete hold upon their contentious but valient spirits, that they began to render implicit obedience to him and put forth a united national effort in defence

Page #25
of their country's liberty. The roving undisciplined bands soon came to realize the value of willing comradeship and followed their leader in weal and woe. The Maratha name thus came to be respected and feared throughout India within the short period of about twenty years. Shivaji ultimately laid the formal legal foundation of the Maratha Raj and in brief but brilliant career left behind an example of constructive Political genius, bringing about the necessary solidarity among scattered and warring units. We Indians, in our present troubles of discord and disunion, have much to learn from this brilliant example. Let us hope it will inspire us. Rao Saheb Govind Sakharam Sardesai, B. A. (Historian ) I respect Shivaji for the courage and organisation which he showed against those whom he called his own, his conntry's and his faith's enemies. I would welcome that old apirit not only in the Mahartta but in every Indian and show it practically in the struggle for freedom. I declare to-day, though a staunch Muslim and inspite of tho fact that Shivaji and his soldiers fought against the Muslims and the Muslim Government, that they were perfectly justified in trying to free their country from foreigners and outsiders. I admire Shivaji's courage and patriotism, though condemn the unfair stabbing and killing of Afzalkhan. X I pray that Shivaji's spirit which means courage and patriotism would be shown by all Indians-Hindus, Muslims, Shikhs, Parsis, Jains, Christians and Jews who live in this beautiful but unfortunate motherland of ours and all combining to free the country of foreign domination. Let us give up this idle talk of one bullying the other into submission. Shivaji reminds me of this and this is my humble tribute to the Memory of a brave patriot. Maulana Shaukatalli. Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com

8 It gives me great pleasure to lay the foundation-stone of this memorial to one of India's greatest soldiers and statsmen. A few minute ago I laid the foundation-stone of the memorial to the Maratha Soldiers who laid their lives in the Great war, men who proved that the spirit which animated the armies of Shivaji still burns bright and clear. I feel snre that this occasion will be worthy of a Memory of a great Indian Statesman and Soldier, and that the monument will stand for all times as a testimony to Maratha greatness in the arts of peace as well as those of War." H. R. H. the Prince of Wales. X X Shivaji Maharaj-one of the greatest of Indir's Warriors and Statesmen X There was a time when attempts were being made to use the memory of Shivaji as a political weapon, and efforts were not lacking to associate it with party or sectional sentiments. That time has passed. I believe that Shivaji is now rightly regarded as an Indian Hero and I trust that this Memorial will be a sign and a symbol of Unity-not of disunityand will be accepted as celebrating not merely a great Maratha, but a great Indian. H. E. Sir Leslie Wilson Governor of Bombay (On the occasion of the unveiling of the Shivaji Statue at Poona). Congratulation on the occasion of the unveiling of the statue of Shivaji, the renowned Maratha leader and Statesman. I trust that this Memorial may stand both as a lasting token of the pride of the Maratha people in their national hero, and as a reminder of how th recent years, and particularly in the Great war, the Marathas have shown by their deeds that the traditions of the past still inspire them. H. E. The Viceroy of India (1928)

I have read thousands of accusations, of reports and of memoranda referring to these acts of violence. Never have I experienced a greater sensation of dis-gust and horror. "I consider that, in the interest of civilisation, and of the dignity of the human race, I must not relate all that I have gathered from those documents. Women have been assassinated, children assaulted and outraged; old women have found their age no protection; women have died as a result of the outrages which they have undergone, and young boys have been violated. But all that is as nothing compared with the cold-blooded cruelty which accompanied the demand that the German Municipalities should furnish German women for houses of prostitution, to gratify the lust of negroes. How many women have been violated with inpurity, and have been forced to keep silence on their shame, for fear of greater injury? How many German cities have been forced, at their own expense, to equip houses of prostitution, and to staff them with their own women, for the sake of white, yellow and black troops? How many acts of violence there are which have never had the epilogue of law suit? How many rapes have gone unpunished ? The authorities frequently took no troubles to trace the authors of these crimes. Almost savage negroes were often concerned in them, who scarcely understood (or atleast often said they did not understand) orders given in French. " What are the atrocities attributed to German officers during the war compared with these ? 42.

330 che. zivAjI caritra [2182 "The cry of woe of the German women, unlistened to to-day, is a terrible reproach to Christian people, who call themselves civilised and democratic, and who, only a few years ago, solemnly declared that they were fighting for the rights of civilisation, for the triumph of justice and for the equality of free people. "But the war has made us insensible to every lofty sentiment and every idea of justice. The rights of victory permit violence and crime during peace. Not even religious associations, protestant pastors, or catholic priests, seem to be greatly moved; and while they expend huge sums on propagating Christianity in China, they look on apathetically at the atrocities in Europe. Those who preach the Gospel of Christ have not a word of indignation to utter. The German women's cry of woe is lost in the desert of sentiment. "I do not want to relate all that has taken place on the Rhine. I will say only that although the English have erected a monument of Miss Cavell, who was the victim of barbarism and of the German violence during the war, her martyrdom was a small thing compared with the martyrdom of the German women in time of peace. One day, when civilisation is again honoured, the Germans of the Rhine will have to record the names of their poor women and of their unfortunate girls who were contaminated by negro violence at the desire of the victors. "The waters of the Rhine have seen all the battles and conflicts of more than two thousand years. Much blood has been poured out on both banks of the legendary river of heroes. But never, until now, did the river sacred to battles and glory reflect from its green shores the black faces of African Cannibals, brought thither to enforce the rights of the victor on the most cultured people in the world, on the people, which has contributed most to the modern civilisation, and which has given the greatest number of architectural monuments to art and to faith." anuvAda - yuropanI paDatI. - "rAInanA lazkarI kabajA saMbaMdhI IglAMDa ane amerIkAmAM prasiddha thaelI saghaLI bInAo, jarmanInI nedha, temaja sarakArI lakhANe meM khUba saMbhALapUrvaka tapAsyAM che. pAzavI kRtya darzAvatAM hajAro nivedano ane hevAlo meM vAMcyA che. tIraskAra ane kamakamATInI AnAthI vadhAre tIvra lAgaNIo meM kadI anubhavI nathI.

Shivaji was not the first in India to liberate the motherland from foreign thraldom. Chandragupta Maurya had freed India from Greek rule in the 4th cetury B. C. Chandragupta of the Gupta dynasty had established Hindu empire in the 4th century A. D. after overthrowing the Scythians. Vishnuvardhana of Malva had driven out in 635 A. D. the Huns who had caused a havoc in India for more than half a century. Rana Pratap of Udaipur had tried hard to keep aloft the standard of freedom in the days of Akabar. But Shivaji's place in history is much higher than that of any of these great men. Greek and Hun rule in India was hardly well established, when the Mauryan emperor Chandragupta and the Malva ruler Vishnuvardhana appeared on the scene to reestablish the national independence. The foreign rule was well established in India for about three centuries and more, when the Guptas rose and put an end to it. But the Scythian rule embraced only a portion of northern India and had not stunned the national consciousness to the same extent as was the case with the Muslim rule at the time of Shivaji. Shivaji's contemporaries were looking on the Muslim rule as a divine dispensation. Even the sturdy and freedom-loving Rajput chiefs had reconciled themselves to it; their highest ambition was to get the highest post in the Moghul administration and they had not the slightest scruples in fighting in the conquerer's army against their own countrymen fighting for the country's independence. The Muslim rule had become well established in India for more than half a dozen centuries, and by Shivaji's time the last Hindu bulwark Vijayanagar had collapsed, and practically no Hindu independent state worth the name was in existence. God's images were broken with impunity by the victorious Mlechchha in innumerable places; the masses had come

to believe that even divine power was powerless before the new irreligious conquerer. Shivaji's greatness lies in the fact that even in these incomparably depressed circumstances, he could conceive of the ideal of national independence and achieve it to a great extent. Chance or fortuitous circumstances may have been responsible for some of his victories, but they had nothing to do with the ideal for which they were won. This is quite clear from the epochmaking eloquent letter which he sent to Jayasinha, when he came to fight with him as a general of Aurangzeb. 'It is a matter of surprise that a handful of Muslims should rule over us. This is no feat of their valour. Aurangzeb is sending you down against me because he desires that lions should fight against and kill one another and leave the field free to the vultures. It is high time that we must now try our best for the sake of the Hindus, Hindusthan and Hindudharma.' Shivaji thus stood not only for political but also for cultural self-assertion. It is well known that he freed Maharashtra, but it is not equally well known that he sought to free the Marathi language also from the foreign yoke of the Persian by arranging for the preparation of the Shabdakosha. He could easily rise above the traditions of centuries when it was necessary to do so in the interest of cultural self-preservation. He stood for reconversion of the converts to the fold of Hinduism, and he went to the extent of marrying one of his daughters to the son of a Sardar, who had been reconverted to Hinduism. In honouring Shivaji, we pay our homage to a great Genius and Seer, who in an age of universal despondency, could rise above the enervating and emasculating influences of long established foreign rule, conceive in clear terms the ideal of national and cultural independence and translate it into fact inspite of the immense odds that were hampering his progress almost at every step.

It is a matter of great regret to me that I am unable to be present personally to represent the army in India at the un of the Memorial to the hero of the Marathas-the great Shivaji, That the qualities of courage, hardiness and disregard of danger which were so conspicuous in Shivaji and his Maratha Warriors of three hundrld years ago are still alive in the Maratha soldier of to-day is plainly written in the records of the Great war. The Maratha Sepoy of the Indian army showed a steadfast bravery and unflinching loyalty which were an example to all. It is indeed fitting that the Indian memorial to Shivaji should be erected in the Capital of the Deccan near the scenes of his greatest efforts and in the Chief Military centre of the South where it will stand in memory of the past and as incentive of bravery to the Maratha Soldier of the future. H. E. Field-Marshal Sir V. Birdwood. A Child of the rugged soil and of the western India renaissance he played his part in the popular movement for freedom and self-expression at a time when a wave of religious nationalism passed through many parts of India and Europe. Shivaji was rather the symbol of the century which produced him. If he was an expression of the new tide of life he was also a life-giver. The giants of the Deccan of the middle ages were carpenters, potters, and even scavengers by birth. They made history. Shivaji had no great advantage of birth or position. That a Hindu son of Mabarastra should become a nation-builder and in the teeth of three great powers, weld a weak and scattered people into a nation was a noteworthy achievement and his life a source of perennial inspiration for us all in India, which had long suffered from invasion and oppression. I do not believe that undue hero-worship is wholly good, and if the hero was a man of violence his circumstances made this inegitable. We do harm to ourselves and society by idealising him as a soldier. An ideal has always its limitations, and in his stormy career they were many and obvious. Shrimant Sayaji Rao Gaikwad ( On the oceasion of the unveiling of the Shivaji Statue at Baroda ).

651 This Statute of Shivaji Maharaj will not only remind India of the heroism of Shivaji and of the magnificent work which he did in his days but it will be a source of noble inspiration fo ages to come. Circumstances may change and the fields on which our labours lie may change, but the greatness of a hero like Shivaji remains unchanged. "States fall, Empires break up, dynasties become extinct" but to use the words of the great Indian Historian 'the memory of a true hero as king like Shivaji remains an imperishable historical legacy for the entire human race; The pillar of a people's hope, The Centre of a World's desire to animate the heart, to kindle the imagination and to inspire the brain of succeeding ages to the highest endeavours.' H. H. the Maharaja of Kolhapur, G. C. I. E. Shivaji had the born leader's personal magnetism and threw a spell over all who knew him. His royal gift, of judging character was one of the main causes of his success. x No wonder, that later on he proved himself an irrepressible and unconquerable antagonist of the great Moghul, a heroic champion of Mahrattha independence and an unrivalled master of guerrilla and predatory warfare. No wonder also, that his name is still " The Pillar of a people's hope, the centre of a world's desire", for great as he was in his achievements, he was immeasurably greater in the possibilities which his brief career of 52 years suggested ".

$42 When Shivaji died at the age of 53, he had made himself an unconquerable hero, the creator and inspiring idol of a nation, and one of the greatest characters in the history of India. This was the achievement of a single short life, in the face of unparalleled obstructions and difficulties. And the contrast between his initial resources and his ultimate possession signally proves the intrinsic greatness of the man and his right to be acknowledged as the last constructive genius among the Hindus. adressed vate life, that age oleratianing against clear los dovout He stands on a lofty pedestal in the hall of the worthies of history, not because he was a Hindu champion, but because he was an ideal householder, an ideal king, and an unrivalled nation-builder. He was devoted to his mother, loving to his children, true to his wivos, and scrupulously pure in his relations with other women. Even the most beautiful female capture of war was addressed by him as his mother. Free from all vices and indolence in his private life, he displayed the highest genius as a King and as an organiser. In that age of religious history, he followed a policy of the most liberal toleratian for all creeds. The letter which he wrote to Aurangzeb, protesting against the imposition ef the poll-tax on the Hindus, is a masterpiece of clear logic, calm persuasion, and political wisdom. Though he was himself a devout Hindu, he could recognise true sanctity in a Musslman, and therefore he endowed a Mahomedan holy man named Babie Yagut with land and money and installed him at Kelesi. All creeds had equal opportunities in his service and he employed a Muslim Secretary named Kazi Haider, who, after Shivaji's death, went over to Delhi and rose to the Chief Justice of the Moghal Empire. There were many Mahomedan Captains in Shivaji's army and his chief Admiral was an Abssinian named Siddi Misri. The Maratha soldiers had strict orders not to molest any woman or risk any Mahomedan Saint's tomb or hermitage. Copies of the Quran which were seized in the course of their campaigns were ordered to be carefully preserved and then handed over with respect to some Mahomedan.

53 Shivaji's political ideals were such that we might accept them even to-day without any change. He aimed at giving his subjects peace, universal toleration, equal opportunities for all castes and creeds, a beneficent, active and pure system of administration, a navy for promoting trade and a trained militia for guarding the homeland. Above all, he sought for national development through action and not by lonely meditation nor by straining the throat on platforms. Every worthy man-not only the natives of Maharastra, but also recruits from other provinces of India, who came to Shivaji, was sure of being given some task which would call forth his inner capacity and have the way to his own rise to distinction, while serving the interest of the State. The activities of Shivaji's Government spread in many directions and this enabled his people to attain to a full and varied development, such as all modern civilized States aim at. All this national expansion proceeded from the initial energy of one man. Shivaji was the central power-house of the new Maharastra. He had, I admit, the supreme royal gift of quietly judging every man's character and capacity and choosing the best instrument for every task that he wanted to be done. But he was a slef-taught man, he never visited any great capital, court or camp. His administrative and military systems perfectly suited to his country and age were his own creation. Unlike Ranjitsing or Mahadji Sindhia, he had no French adviser or lieutenant. Every thing proceeded from his own heart and brain. Therefore, the historian of Shivaji, at the end of a careful study of all the records about him in eight different languages is bound to admit that Shivaji was not only the maker of the Maratha nation, but also the greatest constructive genius of medieval India. zivAjI mahArAjanA eka virala mahApuruSa hatA. sattaramA saikAnA A jAgIradAranA putranuM jIvana AvA prakAranI asAmAnya pratibhAthI prakAzatuM heAya e mAnI zakAya evI vAta nathI. paNa have tA te tavArIkhanI kathA che. itihAsanI vAta che eTale zivAjI mahArAjanA bhAremAM bhAre ane kaTTAmAM kaTTA virAdhIne paNa A satya svIkAreja chUTakA che.

$48 Shivaji was born in an age when the honour and chastity of women, the sanctity and security of temples, the sacredness of private property, the privacy and the inviolability of word and promise were hardly respected by those in power. It was an age when respects for parents and regard for brothers were not shown by rulers. It was also a period of economic misery in the land. There was no security of livelihood. There was no regular system of Government conducted according to any system of recognised laws. Ruler's absolute and uncontrolled will prevailed. No system of citizenship was recognised. It was a period of personal despotism of rulers and officers unrelieved by any sense of justice and any feeling of security. It was a mixture of tyranny in politics and bigotry in religion in which a large class of citizens enjoyed no protection of life, liberty and property. There were no settled rules of warfare, no stability of alliances and no regard for treaties. In short it was an age of Aurangzeb. Rajput bravery failed to check this. Shivaji tried to set new and higher standards in each of these matters of government, citizenship, administration, religion and welfare of the people. His greatness lies not only in his personal character and genius but in his achievements in the midst of evil forces which opposed him from without and from within. Considering his times and the work he undertook to achieve, he is unequalled in the history of India as a ruler and organiser, as & patriot and statesman. His letters to his officers and relations, to Jaysing and Aurangzeb show his aims and ideals. They are embodied in the establishment of Swarajya. Prof. S. W. Pumtambekar. (Benares Hindu University). Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat * Shivaji's Ideals-Shivaji founded the great Maratha Empire but in doing this he was actuated by very lofty ideals. He introduced the system of ruling by a Cabinet. This reform may not appear to be very extraordinary and striking to the modern student of History. But any one who can cast back his eyes three hundred years before and examine the constitutions of those times existing www.umaragyanbhandar.com

Page #695
$44 either in the West or in the East shall have to recognise that this was undoubtedly a great constitutional innovation. Despotism was in the accendant in those times. The Divine right of Kings was an article of faith both of the rulers and the ruled. That 'king can do no wrong' was accepted as a gospel truth. Under such circumstances Shivaji founded a system of Governing his country through the machinery of a Cabinet. Instead of depending entirely on his own sweet will as is the way of all antocrats he evinced a desire to rely upon the collective wisdom of his Councillors. kh His name has become a house-hold word of respect and veneration amongst all Marathi speaking people. It is here intended to show the greatness of this preeminent statesman so far as the constitutional character of his rule is concerned. The many Wars he successfully fought, the impregnable hill-forts which he built and maintained as bulworks of defence commanding vast regions in the plains, his manoeuvres frustrating the machinations of the Bijapur and Delhi Empires, the system which he introduced in his military organisation, the Navy which he created and kept up in a highly efficient condition, his policy of land revenue settlement, each one of these deserves a special treatment and is worthy of being cherished as indicative of the eminent genius of this glorious patriot. The great saintly adviser Ramdas had preached to his Royal disciple the time honoured advice viz. ' agitation becomes a power when coupled with selfless devotion and a moral basis.' Shivaji realised the truth of this advice and acted upto it throughout his life. Prof. G. R.

But he had reformed the Revenue system of his kingdom, organised a careful survey of his lands, and substituted a fairly enlightened and efficient government for the tyranny of semi-independent revenue officers. Arcanined an army that shattered the foundation of the Mughal Empire in the South. He was the father of the Maratha Navy. The Marcantile policy inaugurated by him had a very bright future. During the short reign of thirty five years he had not only founded a Kingdom but created a nation. The slightest irregularity did not escape his keen eyes and in personal attention to the minute details of the Government perhaps he was not inferior to his great Mughal rival. We find him framing regulations about the proper style of official letters,

Page #697
57 we find him deliberating about the necessity of punctual payment of masons. He urges his cavalry officers to beware of the careless use of fire in the camp. They are warned to be more careful about storing hay and fodder for their animals. To the Governor of a port he issues instructions for regulating the price of salt and nuts, and we cannot but wonder when we find the same man starting a literary movement which so vitally influenced the character of Marathi language. Shivaji must not be judged by twentieth century western standards. He was, according to the ethics of his age and nation, a brave and chivalrous man. He was fighting a desperate battle, against enormous odds, and he could expect little mercy from his foes had he fallen into their clutches. His was a dark and violent age, and at least Shivaji's hands were not stained, like those of Aurangzeb, with the blood of his kindred. He was never deliberately or wantonly cruel. To respect women, mosques, and non-combatants, to stop promiscuous slaughter after a battle, to release and dismiss with honour captured officers and men, these are, surely no light virtues. His attacks upon the Mores and Ghorpades were inspired by the treachery which both had shown, and by the hatred which he felt for his country-men who refused to join in the national uprising. Prof. Surendranath Sen, M. A. P. H. D. (Lecturer in Maratha History and Literature, Calcutta University.) 8888 83 X He certainly, from the English point of view, acted treacherously towards Afzalkhan. On the other hand, Afzalkhan, with his knowledge of the Dekhan, deserves little commiseration. No officer of intelligence should have walked into such a trap, and Shivaji was, moreover, incensed by the wanton desecration of the most holy of the Dekhan shrines. The murder of Afzalkhan was, after all, no more treacherous than the murder of the Red Comega. Yet what historian seriously blames Robert the Bruce?

658 Shivaji was a sincerely religious man, he believed himself to be constantly guided and inspired by the goddess Bhawani. He was a desciple of the great Dekhan preacher and poet, Ramdas, and an admirer of the saintly Tukaram. His devotion to his parents, especially to his mother Jijabai, was proverbial. And lastly, we must not forget that he organized the army which shattered the Moghal Empire in the height of its power, a task which the Rajputs themselves essayed in vain, which spread terror from Ramegvaram to Attack, and which offered the only real opposition to the British in northern India. Shivaji ranks among the most remarkable men which India has produced. He was born at a time when his country was a kind of no man's land, ravaged by invading armies and robber chiefs, desolated by famine and overrun with wolves. His great accomplishments was to awaken in his countrymen's hearts the dormant idea of Nationality. By the end of his brief life, he had by virtue of his unique personality, freed his country from misrule and oppression, and set up a great and flourishing kingdom. Shivaji's respect for women was so well known that on more than one occasion Mahomedans escaped from the sack of a town by dressing in women's clothes. Prof. H. G. Rawlinson M. A. I. E. S.

D. ; (Principal, Rajaram College, Kolhapur. ) Like Albuquerke, but with better reason Shivaji posed as the protector of the Hindus against the Mussalmans whom he really hated with a righteous hatred. Shivaji knew better how to meet a powerful army in the field; he understood the precise point where courage must give place to cunning, and in dealing with a Muslim foe he had no scruples of honour. Prof. Lane Pool. Shivaji had the magnetic power which only true leaders of men possess and which neither bandits nor mad fanatics can ever claim. He attracted towards himself all that was hopeful and aspiring in the land without distinction of class or caste or creed or colour. His touch made the very grossest of men feel a cleansing fire burning within them. X There was such a charm about Shivaji's personality that even those who were his enemies and whom he had conquered in the battlefield, became his trusted followers.

They have one and all accepted as final the opinion of Grant Duff, which again was based on that of Khafikhan. They have at the same time rejected Orme's far more accurate conclusions. And while judging Shivaji with the utmost harshness, they have been singularly indulgent to his enemies. The thousand basenesses of Aurangzeb, the appalling villainies of Bijapur and the Ahmednagar nobles, have been passed over with a tolerant smile. The cruel trick by which Ghorpade betrayed Shivaji has provoked no comment. Shivaji, however, is depicted as the incarnation of successful perfidy, a Caesar Borgia to whom there came no ill fortune, a more faithless and more daring Francesco Sfozza. X X But, great organizer and millitary genius that Shivaji was, it is in farseeing statesmanship that he stands supreme. In all history there is no such example of modesty in the face of continued success. The insolent overwhelming vanity which has proved the ruin of so many commanders, both in ancient and modern times, found no place in Shivaji's admirably balanced mind. He won victory after victory against Bijapur and the Moghuls, yet his head was never turned. He realized always, that he had yet to meet the full power of the Moghul Empire. His one aim was secure the freedom of his countrymen. That he might do so, he sought to win the friendship of Aurangzeb. When that proved impossible, he resolved to secure a place of shelter against the coming peril, which he so clearly foresaw. At last there came a time when his genius bore fruit. to C. A. Kincaid, C. V. O. I. C. S. D. B. Parasnis. } Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat x Historians www.umaragyanbhandar.com

43 The fact that Shivaji respected the sanctity of mosques and the honour of women is accepted even by his enemies and this alone, in times when temples were constantly demolished and Hindu women violated or carried away as slaves by Mahomedans, would suffice to place him in tho rank of the greatest Heroes of the world. The life of Shivaji again is all the more charming by the fact that it is full of wonderful incidents in which he always succssfully extricated himself from the dangerous positions into which his enemies placed him, with a resourcefulness and a courage which are unsurpassed in the history of the world and which excited the admiration of even his enemies. Such thrilling incidents as his duel with Afzalkhan, his march in a dark rainy night from the fort of Panhala pursued by the horsemen of Siddhi Gohar, his surprising attack on Shaistekban at midnight in his own camp when surrounded by thousands of soldiers, his escape from confinement at Agra under the very nose of Aurangzeb, his safe return after an incognito travel through Northern India, eluding the vigilence of all officers of the Moghul Empire, and finally his coronation by which he announced the foundation of an independent Maratha Kingdom in Maharastra by anointing and crowning himself as king with the Hindu religious Vedic ceremony of Rajyabhishek, strike us like almost the incidents of a romance. Neither the most powerful Moghul Empire nor the immediately neighbouring Kingdom of Bijapur which both had strenuously tried to destroy him, could prevent this ceremony from being performed nor could they nullify it during Shivaji's life by conquering him. C. V. Vaidya. M. A. L. L. B. (Hon. Fellow, University of Bombay; Vice Chancellor, Tilak University; President Bharat Itihas Shamshodban Mandal, Poona. ) Shivajee was certainly a most extraordinary person; and however justly many of his acts may be censured, his claim to high rank in the page of history must be admitted. To form an estimate of his character, let us consider him assembling and conducting a band of half-naked Mawalees through the wild tracts Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com

where he first established himself. unmindful of obstruction from the elements, turning the most inclement seasons to advantage, and inspiring the minds of such followers with undaunted enthusiasm. Let us also observe the singular places of policy he commenced and which we must admit to have been altogether novel, and most fit for acquiring power at such a period. Let us examine his internal regulations, the great progress he made in arranging every department in the midst of almost perpetual warfare, and his successful stratagems for escaping or extricating himself from difficulty, and whether planning the capture of a fort or the conquest of a distant country, heading an attack or conducting a retreat, regulating the discipline to be observed amongst a hundred horse, or laying down arrangements for governing a country, we view his talent with admiration, and his genius with wonder. For a popular leader his frugality was a remarkable feature in his character, and the richest plunder never made him deviate from the rules he had laid down for its appropriation. Jame Grant Duff.

He Planned his schemes wisely and executed them with steadiness. He consulted many on every point but acted according to that advice, which after weighing in his own mind he thought best applicable to his designs. No one was ever acquainted with his determinations but by the success of their execution. Mr. Jonathan. (Scott's History of Deccan ).

Shivaji was always in ambush till the time of action had arrived, he crept stealthily on his foes, and seldom failed when once his spring was really made, always pretending to do that which he never intended, no one was acquainted with his plans Shree Sudhammaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com

$$$ success of their execution. but by the So completely were his movements kept secret and so often had he circulated false report of his death, to account for his sudden disappearance on some distant expedition, that for several days after his body was actually consumed, he was supposed by his enemies and even by his troops, to be commanding in person under the walls of Surat, and it was months before Aurangzeb knew that death had removed the great enemy against whose unflinching front the Moghul forces had dashed as hopelessly as waves upon a rock-bound coast. Shivaji was mild and merciful and although a bigoted worshipper of Brahman he scorned to retaliate on the Moslem the cruel persecution which they had inflinched on the followers of his faith. X X Shivaji was almost worshipped as God, and the renown of his. deeds, his eagle glances and long arms, his rapid marches and secret forays, are to this day the most popular themes of the wandering minstrels of the Deccan.

Shivaji's life was moulded by two forces-Matrushakti and Gurushakti. Mothers make the nation and Shivaji owed much to his mother-Jijabai. Self-respect, simplicity, national traditions, stories of Ramayan and Mahabharata, Dharma and love of the poor; these were impressed by her upon Shivaji from the days of his boyhood. Saint Ramdas also taught him "to defend religion", to guard the country www.umaragyanbhandar.com

and protect the people from harm. Shivaji kept his pledge. He dedicated himself to the service of his nation and his Dharma, the secret of both is reverence for the poor. In Shivaji's heart was love for the poor and they had beautiful devotion for him * * * In 1680 Shivaji was on his death bed. His friends and relatives were around him and they wept. He consoled them "weep not. Life is short. Liberty's work is incomplete. I go." Liberty's work remains incomplete. India is in bondage. Sadhu Vaswani. Though the son of a powerful chief, he had begun life as a daring and artful captain of banditti, had ripened into a skilful general and an able statesman, and left a character which has never since been equalled or approached by any of his conntrymen. The distracted state of the neighbouring countries presented openings by which an inferior leader might have profited; but it required a genius like his to avail himself as he did of the mistakes of Aurangzeb, by kindling a zeal for religion, and through that, a national spirit among the Marathas. It was by these feelings that his Government was upheld after it had passed into feeble hands, and was kept together, inspite of numerous internal disorders, until it has established in supremacy over the greater part of India. Though a predatory, such as he conducted, must necessarily inflict extensive misery, his enemies bear witness to his anxiety to mitigate the evils of it by humane regulations, which were strictly enforced.

$$C To me Shivaji the founder of the Maratha Empire, appears and has always appeared to be a wonder. He was brought up in seclusion, with no influence except that of his mother Jijai and his tutor Dadaji Konddeva. It is difficult to believe that a lady of those times and a manager kept there to help her to manage & small estate, could have enough equipment to raise up an adventured, a hero, a warrior of rare chivalry, an efficient administrator, and a far seeing Statesman, and founder of an empire as he proved himself to be. An attempt has recently been made to make out that he was merely a tool of his father and was only carrying out the plans of the latter. This has not yet been satisfactorily established and even if it were, that would not account for the extraordinary ability to execute all the plans without great inborn capacity, call it genius, inspirations or what else you like. It is certainly a power not possessed by one in a hundred crores and no wonder that a very large proportion of Indians since his time have regarded him as an incarnation of a diety to save Hinduism and that belief is destined to endure all through History. There are two another great men who come into Shivaji's life. They are Tukaram and Ramdas. The former referred to the latter who advises and guides Shivaji to success, but all through the whole burden of the work to de accomplished falls on him and he never fails, and all credit for it falls to him. The hidden hand of providence is seen in the fact that not a single agent of Shivaji betrays him. Nay they acquired glory by serving him and dying in his cause. All these circumstances which cannot be fortuitous, induce strong belief in his divine origin. His contemporaries maintain it and so long History is read, many are bound to believe it. Hon. G. S. Khaparde. (Member of the Council of State.) The youth in Shivaji rose in rebellion. He wirtes in 1645 A. D. to one of his compatriots severely protesting against the allegation of being faithless to the Shah of Bijapur, and appealed to superior morals by reminding him that the only faith they pledged was not to Shah, but to God alone. Did he not in company of Dadaji, his guardian, and his comrades solemnly swear in the presence of

God on the summits of Sahyadri to fight to a finish and establish "Hindu's Swaraj", a Hindu-pad-padashahi in Hindustan ? " God is on our side and He shall win ". This word " Hindu's Swaraj", coming from the pen of Shivaji himfelf, reveals, as nothing else could have done, the very soul of the great movement that stirred the life and activities of Maharastra for a hundred years and more. Even in its inception the Maratha rising was neither a parochial nor a personal movement altogether. Sgt.

$60 In personal activity he exceeded all generals of whom there is record. For no partizen appropriated to service of detachment alone ever traversed as much ground as he at the head of armies. He met every emergency of peril, however sudden or extreme, with instant discernment and unshaken fortitude. The ablest of his officers acquiesced to the emminent superiority of his genius, and the boast of his soldier was to have seen Shivaji charging sword in hand. Mr. Orme. (Historical Fragments). in From an unknown petty chieftain he had become sovereign of a great portion of Western India, besides his possessions in the South. He had successfully braved the whole power of the Moghul Empire, and had taught his countrymen the secret of success those sudden predatory movements which, from the first blow struck against the Mahomedan power in the destruction of Afzul Khan and the army of Bijapur were in a hundred years to effect the total subversion of their Empire. Col. Meadows Taylor. (Manual of History.) countrymen and had down rules for their Shivaji well knew the character of his carefully used that knowledge in laying Government. The Brahmanical creed could not be used as a weapon of persecution but its mingled tolerance and exclusiveness, made it a powerful instrument for concentrating the religious feelings of the Hindus, and directing their full force against the cruel and bigotted oppression commanded by the Koran and practised by Aurungzeb.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's name stands out prominently in the history of India not only as the founder of the Maratha Kingdom but as the awakener of the dormant spirit of nationalism. Consequently he was a national hero of considerable ability and political acumen. His name will always be remembered along with such historical gems as Maharana Pratap and Swami Dayanand who did not let Hinduism die when its extinction was threatened. These people instilled the spirit of courage, bravery and nationalism and proved the greatness of Hindu ideals before the World, I pay my humble tribute to the memory of Maharaja Shivaji, the Saviour of the Hindu race and Indian Nationalism. Rai Bahadur Kunwar Raghubir Singh, M. L. A. Undoubtedly it is the sacred duty of every Hindu who is at least proud of his own culture and religion that he should pay his humble tribute to the Great Shivaji, a great, great Hindu who was not only a defender of the Hindu faith but also a defender of Independence. The Hindu History can never forget the work, the Great Shivaji has done and the words of Kavi Bhushan still rings into my ears that Shivaji eletal Harla Bid 1451. No higher tribute possibly can be paid by the human pen than this poet has done. I most humbly endorse every word of this poet and say once more that if Shivaji would not have been born God knows what would have happened to the Hindus, the dreams of which make the heart shock.

4023 Marathas were the people looking apparently inconsiderable, that were destined by Providence to overturn the Empire, Aurangzeb was labouring to extend; who, issuing from their mountains and valleys, did in less than a century, level to its base the whole fabric of Mahomedan greatness, and created for themselves an independent Government on the ruins of an Empire of seven hundred years' duration, perhaps such a sudden succession of dominion from so obscure an origin, is without a parallel in the annals of mankind. Commander Tone. $$ My dear Wamanrao, I am very glad to hear that your great work on Shivaji's life will be completed in a week or two. To your friends it is a matter of great pleasure that during your incarceration you should have found time for such a noble endeavour. Your work, therefore, will have a peculiar value for you and your friends. I have not had the opportunity of reading your book, but I feel sure that, with your singular capacity for devoted work and your great admiration for the Maratha leader, you must have done your best. Shivaji's life at a critical time like the present has many lessons to teach, and I have no doubt that the way in which you have handled his life and teachings will provide your readers with many object-lessons full of value in present-day politics. X x X X Shivaji's name is still the one magic cry of Maharastra. His dynasty has been extinct for centuries. His state has crumbled into dust. Yet he is to-day regarded as the unexelled ideal of a wise just patriotic and sagacious ruler, who set the noblest example of Indian capacity for self-government. It is well known how in the last War, in France and Mesopotamia, the Maratha battalions were moved to the highest deeds of heroism by the mere utterance of the War--cry "Victory to Shivaji Maharaj ".

But he (Shivaji) made it a rule, that wherever his followers went plundering, they should do no harm to mosques, the Book of God, or any one's women. Whenever a copy of the Holy Kuran came into his hands, he treated it with respect, and gave it to some of his Musalman followers. When the women of any Hindu or Mahomedan were taken prisoners by his men, and they had no friend to protect them, he watched over them: till their relations came. Shivaji was absolutely guiltess of baser sins, and was scrupulous of women and children of the Muslims when they fell into his hands. Shivaji was a great captain. My armies have been employed against him for nineteen years, and nevertheless his state has been always increasing. Emperor Aurangzeb.
