Ill suggest that we (Pipa Kshatriya Samaj) should stand up now as one of the Kshatriya Rajput Community and stop referring Tailor word for our community. Tailor is a profession and not a caste. . About Sri Pipa Ji, BHAGAT PIPA Ji, a prince who renounced his throne in search of spiritual solace. In the long list of the devotees of God there is a name known as Pipa. He was a king of Garh Gagron, situated at about 50 miles to the east of Kotanagar in the present-day Jhalawar district of Rajasthan State. He was born in a Chauhan rajput family in AD 1426 (1483 Samvat). According to the British historian, J.D. Cunningham, he was the ninth descendant of Raja Jaitpal. Since Pipa came of a royal family, he enjoyed all the pleasures and comforts of a royal life and his life were full of all sorts of physical enjoyments. In the true royal custom, he married a dozen beautiful maidens who lived with him in his palace as his queens. Inspite of all this, a spark of Divine love was still alive in his heart. He was a devotee of goddess, Durga, the deity in which he perceived the divine reflection. He also took time from courtly cares and pleasures of flesh to spend it in the company of the holy persons. These later persuaded him that the special efforts need to be made to realize God.
Pipa advises man to realize the ultimate Reality. For this purpose one need' not wander in forests. If that ultimate Reality (God) is in the forest, He is in the human heart as well. Therefore, it becomes easier for a person to discover Him from within. It becomes obvious therefore that man must peep into his innerself. This can be possible only through the grace of God. However, this is possible to achieve while living in this world and carrying out one's filial and social obligations.
Pipa ji said "One need not make stone images of Him and burn incense or light candles in front of them."
Not much biographical information about Pipa is available. It is, therefore, not possible to specify the place of his demise. It is, however, believed that he died in 1562 AD at the ripe old age of 136 years. There is no exaggeration in the belief that devotees of God never die with their physical death. They are immortal as they remain ever alive through their pious utterances and noble deeds in the hearts of well-wishers of humanity.
So I want to say that Pipa Ji was a born king and a Rajput prince but instead of a crown he chose spirituality and become devotee of god. He never said that his descendants will become Tailor, also tailor is a Profession and not a Caste. . So its time to stand up united and call every pipa vanshi to stop using tailor and start calling themselves as Pipa Ksharitya Rajput.
excellent photos

ReplyDeletePlease do not use darji word against the name of rajput saint Pipa ji as it doesn't look good for the maharaja Pipa ji and his society (Rajputs).
