शिवाजी महाराजांनी संत रामदासांना दिलेली सनद; शिवकालीन अस्सल मोर्तब
प्रथमच समोर
छत्रपती शिवाजी महाराजांनी रामदास स्वामींना १६७८ मध्ये पाठवलेली एक सनद नुकतीच प्रकाशात आली आहे. या सनदेत महाराजांनी काही गावे इनाम म्हणून दिल्याचा उल्लेख आहे. या सनदेच्या हस्तलिखिताच्या इतरांनी तयार केलेल्या नक्कल प्रती यापूर्वीही उपलब्ध होत्या. मात्र लंडनच्या ब्रिटिश संग्रहालयात या अस्सल दस्तावेजाची छायांकित प्रत सापडली आहे. यामुळे शिवाजी महाराजांच्या काळातील शिक्का पहिल्यांदाच समोर आला आहे.
छत्रपती शिवाजी महाराजांनी रामदास स्वामींना पाठवलेली एक सनद नुकतीच समोर आली आहे. इतिहास संशोधक संकेत कुलकर्णी यांना या सनदेची ‘फोटोझिंकोग्राफ’ अर्थात त्याकाळची झेरॉक्स प्रत लंडनच्या ब्रिटिश संग्रहालयात सापडली आहे. १५ सप्टेंबर १६७८ रोजी लिहिलेल्या या सनदेत शिवाजी महाराजांनी समर्थ रामदास स्वामींना काही गावे इनाम म्हणून दिल्याचे नमूद आहे. महाराष्ट्रात आजवर सापडलेल्या नकलांवर जे शेरे दिले आहेत, त्याबरहुकूम ही प्रत असल्याचे सिद्ध होत आहे. या सनदेवर छत्रपती शिवाजी महाराजांच्या ‘मर्यादेयं विराजते’ अशी अक्षरे असलेल्या एकूण ११ मोर्तबा असून एक मोर्तब पत्राच्या मुख्य बाजूवर असून उरलेल्या १० मोर्तबा पत्राच्या मागील बाजूस आहेत. या पत्रातील हस्ताक्षर हे शिवकालीन प्रसिद्ध बाळाजी आवजी चिटणीसांच्या हस्ताक्षराशी मिळतेजुळते असल्याचेही बोलले जाते. ही सनद बदलापूरचे इतिहास संशोधक कौस्तुभ कस्तुरे यांनी उजेडात आणली आहे. २३ डिसेंबर २०१७ रोजी पुण्याच्या ‘भारत इतिहास संशोधक मंडळा’च्या पाक्षिक सभेत कौस्तुभ कस्तुरे आणि शिवराम कार्लेकर यांनी पहिल्यांदाच या सनदेचे वाचन आणि नव्याने सापडलेल्या मूळ पत्राचे चित्र प्रकाशित केले.
यापूर्वी १९०६ मध्ये पहिल्यांदा या आशयाचे पत्र प्रकाशित झाले होते. ते देवनागरी भाषेत नक्कल केलेले होते. त्या काळात ब्रिटिशांच्या दस्तावेजावरून घेतलेल्या अनेक कागदपत्रांच्या नकला या हस्तलिखित होत्या. या पद्धतीत महाराजांचा शिक्का हा फुलांच्या पाकळ्यांप्रमाणे रेखाटला जात होता. त्याबाबत ठोस पुरावे नसल्याने फक्त मोर्तब वा शिक्का असा असेल असे तर्क लावले जात होते. मात्र तब्बल १११ वर्षांनंतर या सनदेच्या माध्यमातून समोर आलेले हे मोर्तब पूर्णत: वेगळे असून त्यावर ‘मर्यादेयं विराजते’ असा स्पष्ट उल्लेख आहे. शिवाजी महाराजांच्या काळातील अशा प्रकारचा ठळक पुरावा पहिल्यांदाच समोर आल्याची माहिती कौस्तुभ कस्तुरे यांनी दिली. यापूर्वी कोणत्याही संशोधकाने अस्सल मोर्तब पाहिला नव्हता, असा दावाही कस्तुरे यांनी केला आहे. तसेच फोटोझिंकोग्राफ ही दस्तऐवज सुरक्षित करण्याची प्रक्रियाही महत्त्वाची असून त्याद्वारे सुरक्षित केला गेलेला हा दस्तऐवजही त्यामुळेच अस्सल असल्याचे सिद्ध होते, असेही कस्तुरे यांनी सांगितले.
सनदेतील मोडी लिपितील उल्लेख
‘श्रीसद्गुरुवर्य श्रीसकळतीर्थरूप श्रीकैवल्यधाम श्रीमहाराज श्रीस्वामी स्वामींचे सेवेसी चरणरज सिवाजीराजे चरणावरी मस्तक ठेऊनु विज्ञापना जे’ अशा मायन्याने हे पत्र सुरू झाले आहे. पुढे शिवाजी महाराजांनी स्वत:च्या शब्दांत पूर्वी समर्थानी त्यांना काय उपदेश केला त्याबद्दल थोडक्यात लिहिले आहे. त्यामुळे रामदास स्वामी हे शिवाजी महाराजांना किती वंदनीय होते हे स्पष्ट होते.
This Sanad starts with the mayana for Ramdasswami -” श्रीसद्गुरूवीर्य , सकळ तीर्थरूप , श्री कैवल्य धाम , श्री महाराज , श्रीस्वामी , यांचे सेवेशी चरणरंज,, “ which suggests their गुरु शिष्य relationship . It also suggests long standing relationship in between Ramdas and shivaji in the same letter , Shivaji Raje mentioned the advise rendered by Ramdas to shivaji to follow “Kshatradharma ‘ and “Rajdharma ‘ . Along with this there is specific mention by Shivaji that Shivaji Maharaj according entire State at the footsteps of Ramdas. Such charter is a glaring symbol of the intimate relationship that existed in between Samarth Ramdas and Shivaji Raje

A charter sent by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj to Ramdas Swami in
1678 has recently come to light. In this charter it is mentioned that Maharaj
gave some villages as reward. Copies of the manuscript of this charter made by
others were already available. However, a photocopy of the original document
has been found in the British Museum in London. Due to this, the seal of
Shivaji Maharaj's time has come to the fore for the first time
A charter sent by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj to Ramdas Swami
has recently come to light. Historian Sanket Kulkarni has found a 'photogenicograph'
of the charter at the British Museum in London
In this charter written on 15th September 1678, it is mentioned
that Shivaji Maharaj gave some villages to Samarth Ramdas Swami as a reward.
The remarks made on the copies found to date in Maharashtra are proving to be a
copy.
The remarks made on the copies found to date in Maharashtra are
proving to be a copy. There are a total of 11 Mortabas with the letters
'Myradayam Virajate' of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj on this charter.
The handwriting of this letter is said to be similar to the
handwriting of Chitnis instead of the famous Balaji of Shiva period. This
charter has been brought to light by Kaustubh Kasture, a historian of Badlapur.
Kaustubh Kasture and Shivram Karlekar read the charter for the first time and
published a picture of the newly discovered original letter at the fortnightly
meeting of the Bharat Itihas Sanshodhak Mandal in Pune on 23rd December 2017.
The first such letter was published in 1906. It was copied in
Devanagari language. These manuscripts were copies of many documents taken from
British documents at that time. In this method, the seal of the Maharaja was
drawn like the petals of a flower.
As there was no concrete evidence, it was argued that it would
be just a seal. However, after 111 years, the status quo that has come to the
fore through this charter is completely different and it is clearly mentioned
that 'limits exist'. Kaustubh Kasture informed that this is the first time such
a strong evidence has come to light in the time of Shivaji Maharaj. Kasture has
also claimed that no researcher has seen the original mortab beforeKasture also
claimed that no researcher had seen the real mortab before. "The process
of securing a photojincograph document is also important and the document that
is secured by it proves to be authentic," Kasture said.
Mention in Modi script in the charter
The letter begins with the words, Later, Shivaji Maharaj in his
own words has written briefly about what Samarthani preached to him earlier.
Therefore, it was clear how much Ramdas Swami was revered by Shivaji Maharaj.
besides that Shivray was guided on several spiritual and political matters by the Sant which is proved by both contemporary records as well as official letters. The Chafal Sansthan received Shivray’s Sanad and the letter written in this regard is an apt reminder of the place that the Sant had in Maharaj’s life and heart. see his letter given below that how much respect he is giving to samarth ramdas
count the fact
that there were several exchanges between Maharaj and Swami which shows
guidance was sought and given on political and spiritual matters.However, there
has been a concerted effort from the ‘secular’ brigade to whitewash history.
Just like ‘liberal’ historians glorify Islamic invaders, they either secularize
or totally ignore (when they can’t de-saffronize them) Hindu kings as per their
agenda/propaganda. Politicians like Pawar deny the Guru-Shishya relationship
for their casteist and minority appeasing
The great poet-saint of Maharashtra Swami Samarth Ramdas too sang the praises of Shivaji and called him the greatest protector of the Hindu religion.
“He can be glorified as successful, famous, blessed, valorous, meritorious and an icon of morality. There has been none like him, a knower of Dharma, who has protected Hindu Dharma in Maharashtra.”
