Champal Dey, the clever daughter of the best Abhad Seth of Patan, skillfully protected her father's property!
- Whoever is in destiny stays there, no one can rob from destiny!
- Eye oyster, distance pearl-Acharya Shri Vatsalyadeep Suriji
You have to be clever when it comes to eating.
At one time there was an era of Solanki kings in Gujarat. King Bhimdev rules in Patan. It is said that King Bhimdev was a very naive king. Many people used to stir up trouble in the kingdom by listening to him.
A Seth named Abhad Vasa lives in Patan city. Extremely rich, kind-hearted. A Mehtaji works there. It doesn't matter when Seth is present in the shop, but when he is not present, Mehtaji messes up the accounts. Stealing money.
Abhad Seth found out about this and fired him.
Mehta's own cunning was caught and he did not regret it. His mind was deceitful. It happened that I should take revenge on Abhad Seth.
He reached the royal court.
Mehta whispered to King Bhimdev.
Said, 'Abhad Seth has immense wealth. It does not give to anyone or does not help Raj. Seth's wealth means Raj's wealth. You should grab it. '
This came to the mind of King Bhimdev. He asked Mehta the trick. Mehta showed maneuver. The king and his maid sent a plate full of meat to Seth's house.
Abhad Seth sitting to worship God. Seth's child widowed daughter Champal De stood at the door. The maid told him that the king had sent a prasad as there was a festival in the palace now.
If Champal Dey opens the plate, there is meat in it!
Champal De was clever. She was also polite. He set aside the plate of offerings and returned with the maid a plate full of gold coins. The maid also gave an excellent gift.
When Abhad Seth got up from worship, Champal Dey said, 'Father, the plate that came from there to the king today is a sign of bad luck. If the king sends us meat, it will not happen, so this is definitely the work of the expelled Mehta. The king will seize our property, so we have to go now. '
Seth got worried. He asked his daughter, 'Son, what are we going to do?'
Seth knew that his daughter was unfortunate that she was a child widow. But it is also the best intelligence. Champade says, 'Father has provoked the king to devour wealth. Now we have to turn the king in the right direction to protect the wealth. '
Champal Dey showed the way to his father.
In the morning, Seth Raj reached the court in a chariot with a turban on his head. Took a precious gift for the king. I handed over the list of all my property and wealth to the king and requested that he protect my property!
The king was astonished.
It was to King Bhimdev that Abhad Seth would be shocked to see the strange plate he had sent. He will treat Raj as he pleases, his property will be looted!
King Bhimdev was honored for Abhad Seth.
The king said to Abhad Seth, "You are a humane citizen of the king." No one in this kingdom is worried about protecting their property. I am defending the entire kingdom. Don't worry.
He called that Mehtaji and the king knocked. Criticizing Mehta at the palace, he said, "Those who know how to earn money also know how to save their money. You did not recognize Seth. The fall at their feet and the apology became what it became. Stop being jealous now. '
Mehta fell at the feet of Abhad Seth and apologized.
King Bhimdev did not take anything from Seth's property. His wealth survived because of his intelligent daughter like Champal Dey. This made Seth very happy. Champal De was religious. Abhad Sethe increased his fame by doing many charitable deeds in the hands of his daughter.
There are many such stories in Jain history.
Update:
Ta. An article about Manivijayaji Dada, published on 7-9-2071, contains a conditional omission. It mentions about Shri Ratnasagarji Maharaj. They were not from Khartar Gachch but from Sagar Gachch and there are not 50 but 1000 disciples of Manivijayji Maharaj today. Thanks for pointing out thousands of readers about this.
