Chapter – 3

Once, the fortress of King of Varanasi is located in the Southern area of Kashi, was filled with the vibrant  Vedic chants, priestly classes were chanting Chathurveda, other than the locals of Varanasi were completely packed in the patio,  and there was a huge crowd of saints and holy men.  It was the grand opening ceremony of the shrine of Lord Shiva built by King Chethsingh, a marvelous Linga was consecrated to install in the sanctum.  King Chethsingh was already ordered his men that not to allow any individual who found suspicious or strange.  Kings of Kashi are ardent of devotees of Lord Shiva, even the Kings were welcome by the people with the greetings “ Har Har Mahadev”, they are considered as the representative of Lord Shiva and highly revered in the society.  Suddenly the King Chethsingh’s voice echoed all over the place, “ Who is the chandala/person from low rank? Who let him inside? throw him out immediately.” The crowd was alarmed; they saw Baba Kinaram was standing before the King.  Many of the king's men were moved towards Baba Kinaram, he said “ You have insulted me, you will suffer the consequence of it, never forget that you have honored the foreigners, and one day you will be treated in the same way you are treating me now.  One day these foreigners will throw you out of your fortress,” King Chethsingh slowly got out his shock.  Seeing the angry face of the King, the men were dragged Baba Kinaram from the fortress, Baba Kinaram said: “You will see, this is my curse upon you, you will be thrown out of your Kingdom, this fortress will be occupied by bats and pigeons and your clan will destroy.”  Surprisingly still this fortress remains as a mark of the curse of Baba Kinaram.

Munshi Sadanand Bhakshi entered in the fortress, he was a great devotee of Baba Kinaram, he stopped entering into the fortress, he respectfully took Baba Kinaram with him and dropped him in his hermitage.  He came back to the fortress and understood all that happened to Baba Kinaram.  Whatever happened was truly unfortunate, Baba Kinaram’s curse will not go waste, he was worried if the curse happened in real the sacred city of Kashi and its people have to suffer a lot.    Baba Kinaram is a Siddhapurusha, all the locals treat him with great respect and honor, he must have arrived with a specific objective, none of the curses of the Yogis will go waste, so it is definite that Chethsingh had to face aftereffects of it.  The next day Munshiji came to Kreekund where Baba Kinaram performs ablutions,  he begged to forgive King Chethsingh for his mistake, Babaji said “ Whatever came out of my mouth will happen certainly, I cannot take it back, he has to suffer the  evil effects of the curse, he became too haughty now, unfortunately, it is the time of his destruction”  Munshiji was alarmed and said “ Baba, what will happen to us? We wholly depend on the service to Kingdom, kindly shower your mercy upon the King,”  Babaji said “Yogi's curse never go waste, I can understand your qualms, your clan will not have any harm, make sure if you add ‘Anand’ at the end of the name successors in your clan, no harm will happen. You can leave now.”  Gradually, the curse started working on King Chethsingh, he has to run away from the Shivala fortress. The kingdom was brought  under British rule.
