Prime Minister Narendra Modi reviews the progress of the vast Ram temple being built in Ayodhya.

These days Chaitra Navratri is celebrated in the country. Hindu religious people are busy worshiping the Goddess these days. Meanwhile, the reader will be delighted to read about an interesting coincidence. There is a very ancient goddess temple of Mata Tripura Sundari in Banswara of Vagad region of Southern Rajasthan. It is considered the Shakti Peeth of Vagad. It can be said to be a happy coincidence that two Chief Ministers of the state, Mr. Haridev Joshi and Mrs. Vasundhara Raje, became exclusive devotees of Mata Tripura Sundari, and both reached the pinnacle of politics. Tripura Sundari was the deity of the late Chief Minister, Mr. Haridev Joshi. He first renovated the temple of Mata, located in the middle of the Biyaban forest, and conducted many religious events here. At the same time, Vasundhara Raje, the first woman Chief Minister of Rajasthan, gave a grand appearance at the temple of Mata. Played an important role in

Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Haridev Joshi's mother, rich in unique personality, had deep faith in Tripura Sundari. He was an exclusive devotee of Mother. He used to start every trip to his home region by visiting the very ancient temple of Tripura Sundari Shakti Peeth, located seventeen km away from Banswara in Talwara town and near the airstrip. He used to start his other work only after worshiping there. His faith resulted in Joshi, born into a low-income family in a small village, becoming the Chief Minister of Rajasthan thrice. Due to his untiring efforts, this pilgrimage of Tripura Sundari Devi continued to develop and became famous in the country and abroad. Mr. Joshi and the Panchal Samaj renovated this historic temple and, taking a keen interest in the Pran Pratishtha events, constructed roads and roads leading to this ancient Peeth and facilitated the movement.

Later, another Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Smt. Vasundhara Raje also became an ardent devotee of Tripura Sundari Mata and her family goddess Pitambara Mata in Datian, Madhya Pradesh. She increased the temple's glory and got many works done to beautify the temple, etc., to make the temple grand. Gave shape Along with this, an airstrip was also constructed here. It is said that this centuries-old Shakti Peeth was an exclusive shelter for the erstwhile kings and emperors to accumulate power and receive divine grace. Very few people would know that Rajasthan's former Chief Minister, Late Mr. Haridev Joshi, was an excellent astrologer and connoisseur of oriental studies like his father, Pt. Pannalal Joshi. Some eminent astrologers of the country had astrologically told the chances of his reaching the post of Prime Minister.

It is said that this prediction was made by world-famous astrologer Vishwa Vijay Panchang and editor of the famous astrology magazine "Jyotishmati" Pt. Hardev Sharma Trivedi. He also expressed this opinion in a letter written on January 12, 1974, to Mr. Joshi's father, Pt. Pannalal Joshi. Pt. Hardev Sharma had also hinted about this in Jyotishmati Patrika from January 9, 1974, to April 6, 1974. In this magazine, the extraordinary personality of Shri Haridev Joshi, who succeeded in getting the post of Chief Minister by defeating Shri Ram Niwas Mirdha, the representative of the then Prime Minister Mrs. Indira Gandhi, was highlighted. It is said that Pandit Hardev Sharma Trivedi himself had told some experiments to Mr. Joshi on the night of December 73 in Jaipur, in which he was advised to recite Kavach Kunjika stotra and Arjunkrit Durgastuti daily. Also, Mr. Joshi's father, Mr. Pannalal Joshi, suggested doing the Sardha-Navdurga experiment. He believes that if all these rituals had been done correctly, Shri Haridev Joshi would have been honored as the Prime Minister of India.

Pt. Hardev Sharma Trivedi kept advising Mr. Haridev Joshi at every step and used to make him aware of the day-to-day horoscope and planetary positions. He often discussed topics with his friend and Siddha Astrologer Joshi's father, Pannalal Joshi, like Astrology, Yoga and Tantra, etc. Shri Haridev Joshi also had a deep faith and belief in Astrology, Yoga Marg, etc. They often used to get rituals done by expert pundits. There was usually a gathering of pundits at his Jaipur residence too.

In Banswara, the home district of Shri Haridev Joshi, the sequence of rituals was often maintained. Shri Haridev Joshi performed many times Rudarchan including Shatchandi, Sahasrachandi, Laghurudra, Maharudra, and Mahamrityunjaya Samput, under the direction of well-known Pt. Especially for the worship of Mata Tripura Sundari, he also participated many times in various spiritual practices like Shree Yantra Pooja, Shree Vidyavidhanam Bagalamukhi, etc. Shri Haridev Joshi conducted Pitambara Mahayagya and Japonushthan several times in Tripurasundari Shaktipeeth under the direction of Pandit Mahadev Shukla in the temple premises for all-round welfare and freedom from various obstacles. Often in the days of crisis and elections, Mr. Joshi resorted to spiritual experiments. The effect of frequent rituals was that Mr. Haridev Joshi was never defeated by his political enemies, and many had to face them. While Mr. Joshi was alive, he could never raise his head. It can be called a miracle that many opponents of Mr. Joshi used to become his devotees as soon as the elections came near.

Once a victim of a political conspiracy, the then Prime Minister, Mr. Rajiv Gandhi, had sent Mr. Joshi away from the state's politics by making him the governor of some states. Still, later the same Mr. Rajiv Gandhi corrected his mistake and gave Mr. Joshi the third term again. Bar became the Chief Minister of Rajasthan. Mr. Haridev Joshi was indeed the person who won the Janata wave elections in 1977 from Banswara with a majority. Even before this, the country's most powerful Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, did not wish to make Joshi the Chief Minister. However, based on his popularity, intelligence, tact, and divine power, the state's legislators elected him for the post of Chief Minister. Pt. Hardev Sharma Trivedi has written about this - "As the sixth Chief Minister of Rajasthan, he has been elected by "Jetaramparajit," the opponents." The plan was to make a Jat leader the Chief Minister in Rajasthan, like Punjab and Haryana. In this way, from Jaisalmer, Ganganagar to Amritsar, a voluntary Jat state will be established, and after getting political supremacy, they will always vote for Delhi. Sardar Swaran Singh is the dreamer of Jat Empire. Before this, there was Sardar Baldev Singh. But the then Chief Minister of Haryana dissatisfied other sections with his behavior. The then Home Minister, Mr. Uma Shankar Dixit, Congress President, Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma, and Mr. Naval Kishore Sharma came forward as pioneers. Shri Haridev Joshi had the blessings and support of these trusted aides of the Prime Minister, then Rajputs, Jats, and Communists also supported Shri Joshi. In this issue of 'Jyotishmati,' it was further written that Joshi was a staunch opponent of feudalism, at that time, Brahmins, Rajputs, etc. He also got the support of Underlining the politics of that time; the magazine wrote that the first report of Mr. Chandreshkhar was said to be wrong by the then Foreign Minister Sardar Swaran Singh. Until now, the name of Shri Ramnivas Mirdha was not even heard. Sardar Swaran Singh asked the Prime Minister to make Mr. Mirdha a candidate, but due to the fear of defeat, he did not openly say that he chose Mr. Ram Niwas Mirdha. On getting the information that the ground reality favored Mr. Joshi, the high command accepted his protection only after returning from the battlefield.

Joshi is a new force on the Indian stage. He firmly adopted the path of Veer Shiromani Maharana Pratap in Rajasthan and played an essential role in completely freeing Paresh from the curse of British rule. Joshi will one day sit in the Prime Minister's residence in New Delhi.

Highlighting various aspects of the personality of Mr. Haridev Joshi, the magazine said that it was the result of his executive power that he stood firm in favor of Mr. Mohanlal Sukhadia in front of Prime Minister Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru and Mr. Sukhadia became the leader of the country. He became the youngest Chief Minister, and from 1955 to 1971, Mr. Sukhadia's cabinet remained. Mr. Haridev Joshi Sukhadia ji and Mr. Barkatullah Khan, who became the Chief Minister after him, remained a powerful force in the cupboard. For example, Lord Krishna was the power of the Pandavas. Mr. Haridev Joshi also made his mark as a journalist and editor of "Navyug Dainik." Although he could not continue journalism for long, no power could stop him from moving forward in politics. Mr. Joshi, rich in Rajyoga personality, always had deep faith in divine abilities in his life and not only in the Vagad region of Southern Rajasthan but also Maintained constant contact with eminent Vedic scholars, astrologers, and mahatmas of the state and the country. No matter the circumstances, Shri Joshi did not give up his daily work and meditation. He used to get up early every morning and started his day only after doing evening meditation and worship. Along with luck behind the success of his life, the grace of the top saints and his deep faith and faith in divine power were also the main reasons.
