Evidential Story - 40
Fire was seen all over, no one knew where it came from! But it destroyed all the belonging of the traders and lakhs of costly items like bullock cart and many precious goods were destroyed. People were horrified and shorted for water. So much so the number of people shouted for water exceeded the number who actually brought in water. Friends of Lahshindhan Lakshmi dhar were so scared, and became speechless as their minds got locked. And the flames looked as if they touched the sky. In those days there were no fire brigades to control the fire. But there was a sloke Agni namak mantra the fire control known as the fire brigade mantra. Those who were devoted to religion used the mantra to control the angry fire.
When sita's truthfulness and loyalty were tested by fire, Agnikant Jain religion's power proved effective so there is no reason that Lakashmi Dhar could not have put off the fire in other words Lakshmi Dhar could have put off the fire. Lakshmi dhar was in the least affected or scared at that terrible time. In his religious life he had burnt up all his evil desires and sins as in that of Holi. Very calmly and devoutly he could see this present situation as Jitendra Bhagwan could foreseen the eight evils of the present time. Lakshmidhar thought that when misfortune comes what cannot happen? that means everything will be disturbed.
If Ravan's Golden Lanka was burnt to ashes what cannot happen to me? What is wealth after
Lakshmidhar used sloka 40 & Mahaprabhavak Bhaktamar with much devotion and faith to destroy the misfortune. Some people were angry, mockingly remarked against Lakshmidhar and said "Sethji please provide same water to control the fire instead of praying your slokas, because your devotion and mantras will not work here. "Lakshmidhar was not all disturbed but was immersed in reciting his mantras. In the govt constitution whether it is late or dark, whether people get justice or not, but in God's law, (law of karma work) there is no delay and no darkness.
Lakshmiji Bhaktamar was totally immersed in Shloka 40 he saw Devi Adithsthati Chakreshwari with folded hands standing before him. Learners would be keen to know who this lakshmidhar is ? How did the fire start? Where did it start? and under what circumstances it look place? Let us see!
Listen lakshmi Dhar was a rich merchant of Pothenpuram. On Deepawali day, early morning. accompanied by business companions, were going for their business to Singhal Island. In the late evening they put up a tent on the way. Sethji said this evening is a suitable day, a great and holy festal day so we should worship Lakshmi he lighted the lamp and began to worship Lakshmi the Goddess of wealth. Being carried away by the thought of Lakshmi. He forgot that it was not the feast of Lakshmi actually it was a day to worship Mahavir and then only they were free to worship Lakshmi, so after worshiping the Goddess of wealth he slept off. After an hour he heard the shouting of people, he woke up and realized that he has worshipped Lakshmi instead of celebrating Deepavali and Diwali instead of holi.
He was lost in and touched by the sloka. Abhishti Chakreshwari Devi brought an incense boat to Lakshmi Dhar. In God's Law there is no delay and no darkness so that wherever he sprinkled it the fire became calm and extinguished.
