Dear Freinds

 

In the Siva Purana Vidyesvara Samhita Translated by Shastri 1973

there is a mention starting in the verse 5

 

Siva Said

 

O Mahesani formerly I had been performing penance for thousands of

divine years. Although I had controlled it rigorously my mind was in

flutter. Out of sport I being self possessed just opened my eyes O

Goddess from a desire of helping the world. Drops of tears fell from

my beautiful half closed eyes. From those tear drops there cropped up

the Rudraksha plants

 

They became immobile. In order to belss the devotees they were given

to the four Varnas devoted to the worship of Visnu

 

Rudraksa Grown in Gauda land became great favourites of Siva. They

were grown in Mathura, Lanka, Ayodhya, Malaya, Sahya mountain, Kasi

and other places. They are competent to brewad asunder the clustered

sins unberarable to the other as the sacred texts have declared

 

 

 

Does anyone know the meaning of Gauda Land and where Gauda land is

located because this was mentioned first

 

Thanks and Take Care

Barpeta has been a place of great religious importance. Known by

various names like Tatikuchi, Porabhita, Mathura, Vrindavan,

Choukhutisthan, Nabaratna-Sabha, Icchakuchi,Pushpak Vimana, Kampur

and Barpeta. It was Koch King Naranarayan who founded Barnagar

(Sorbhog) The present District formed an integral part of the Koch-

Hajo and the Ahom Kingdom till British Administration took over.

>From the ancient period Barpeta witnessed the rule of the Varmans

(380-654) the Salasthamas (655-985) the Palas (985-1260) the Kamatas

(1260-1509)& the Koches from 1509. During the Kamata & Koch rule

major historical development took place. During this period large

number of local feudatory-chiefs who are primarily land lords

called 'Bhuyans' ruled the region. Number of villages constituted

a 'Chakla' placed under a Bhuyan was patronised by the Kamatas.

These Bhuyans arrived from eastern part of India like Kanauj, Gauda

and Bengal who in passage of time became general Assamese caste and

accepted the Vaishnava faith under influence of Shrimanta Sankardeva.

The Northen Saraswat

 

As the powerful Kshatriya kingdoms rose, a few Saraswats migrated to

Indraprastha, Mathura, and Prayag, Kashi and other places. But as

Kshatriyas fell with the rise of Buddhism, a few Saraswats migrated

to Rajputana and Sind married local girls and formed separate

communities. They then went to Gadipur or Kannauj and on to the

Gangetic valley, or the Gauda, and were known as the Gauda and then

to Mithila and were called Maithila, and thence to Utkal or Orissa,

where they called themselves Utkal Gauda Brahman. In Punjab they

called themselves as Punjabi Saraswat Brahmin.
