اهڙو ڳوٺ جتي انسانن کي زنده باه ۾ ساڙيو ويندو آهي
ڀارت جو اھڙو ڳوٺ جتي انسانن کي زنده باھ ۾ ساڙيو ويندو آھي ، وجھ ٻڌي شايد توھان کي به غصو ايندو.
دنيا ۾ ٿيندڙ عجيب و غريب رسمن جي باري ۾ ته توھان ٻڌندا ئي رهندا هوندا پر ڀارتي رياست جھاڙ کنڊ ۾ بيمارين کان بچاءُ ۽ خوش قسمتيءَ کي حاصل ڪرڻ لاءِ ماڻھن کي باھ جي شعلن تي ساڙڻ جي رسم واقعي حيرت انگيز۽ نا قابل يقين آھي.
ان رياست جي آمهون سامهون جي ڳوٺن ۾ ھر سال يارھن ڏينھن جو ميلو لڳايو ويندو آھي، جنھن ۾ سڀني کان خاص تقريب اها آهي ته هن تقريب دوران انسانن کي زنده باھ جي مٿان لٽڪايو ويندو آھي. ان تقريب ۾ ڏھن کان پنجھٺ ورھين جا ماڻھو شرڪت ڪري سگھن ٿا. ان تقريب دوران ماڻهن جي پيرن کي ھڪ ڪاٺي سان ٻڌو ويندو آھي ۽ آھستي آھستي باھ جي شعلن جي ويجھو آندو ويندو آھي.
ان دوران ھڪ ھندو پنڊت منتر پڙھندو باھ ۾ تيل وجھندو ويندو آھي ته جينئن شعلا وڌيڪ ڀڙڪڻ لڳي.
مين آن لائن مئگزين جي مطابق تقريب ۾ شامل سورھن ساله ارون نائيڪ ٻڌايو ته ھي رسم نه صرف باھ تي جھولڻ واري ماڻھوءَ کي ھر بيماري ۽ تڪليفن کان پاڪ ڪري ٿي ڇڏي پر ڳوٺ جي خوش قسمتي ۽ خوشحالي جو سبب به بڻجي ٿي.
رياست جھاڙ کنڊ جا ڳوٺاڻا ان کي قدرتي آفتن مثلاۡ زلزلو، خشڪ سالي ۽ وبائي بيمارين کان نجات جو ذريعو سمجھن ٿا.
رسم ۾ شرڪت ڪرڻ وارن جو عقيدو آھي ته ديوتا شيو ۽ ديوي پاروتي انھن جي حفاظت ڪن ٿا ۽ انھن کي باھ جي شعلن کان نقصان نه ٿو پھچي.
ان رسم کي مقامي زبان ۾ چتيا منڊا پوجا چيو ويندو آھي. ان جي شموليت جي لاءِ اوڀر۽ ڏکڻ ڀارت جا پري پري کان ماڻھو ايندا آھن.
مقامي ماڻھن جومڃڻ آھي ته ھي رسم ھزارين سالن کان جاري آھي ۽ ماضيءَ ۾ ماڻهن جي جسم ۾ هڪ ڪنڊو هڻي انهن کي باه جي مٿان لٽڪايو ويندو هيو پر هاڻي ان مقصد لاءِ ڪاٺيءَ جو ستون استعمال ڪيو ويندو آهي. ان ستون سان ماڻهن کي ٻڌي باه جي سامهون ڪيو ويندو آهي.
