Life  Consciousness in Plants , Trees

Botany History in Smriti, Purana etc. 3
BOTANY History of Indian Subcontinent –71

 At early stage of History, the Indian researchers knew that there was life in plants or trees. Mahabharata and other classics stated various time.
  Manusmriti a Hindu law or Hindi constitutional book or Human purpose book of its time, states that there is life in plants or trees.
 The 49 Shloka of first Discourse / book /chapter of Manusmriti states –
तमसा बहुरूपेण वेष्टिता:  कर्महेतुना I
अन्तस्संज्ञा भवन्त्येते सुखदु: खसमन्विता II (MS 1.49, Translation by Gnagadhar Jha , 1920, Published by Calcutta University)
The mewing of above Shloka is as under (Gangadhar Jha ) –
All these (vegetables) are invested manifold darkness (inertia)., the results of their  acts; and possessing inner consciousness ,they are affected by pleasure and pain )
It is clear that there was concept before Manu created Manusmriti, there was clear concept of plants being living organism and having consciousness

  खमण एक विशेष गाँव है जो भौगोलिक हिसाब से डबरालस्यूं में है किन्तु राजनैतिक सीमारेखा अनुसार मल्ला ढांगू में है।  चक्रधर कुकरेती (कुकरेती वंशावली प्रसिद्ध ) खमण डाबरालों द्वारा दान में कुकरेतियों  को दिया गया था तो खमण को मल्ला ढांगू याने कुकरेती गाँव माना जाता रहा है। गुरु राम राय दरबार , देहरादून के  महंत  स्व इंदिरेश चरण दास (श्रीधर कुकरेती ) की जन्म स्थली भी खमण ही है।

सम्प्रति जांदरदन कुकरेती के डंड्यळ  पर चर्चा हो रही है।  खमण में कुछ इस मकान को 'तिबारी' कह कर भट्याते हैं तो कुछ  डंड्यळ '.  जनार्दन कुकरेती  का यह  तिबारी / डंड्यळ वाला मकान तिभित्या मकान याने दुखंड (एक कमरा अंदर व एक बहार की और ) मकान है व पहली मंजिल पर  दो कमरों के मध्य दीवार न रख बाहर काष्ठ स्तम्भ लगाकर तिबारी रूप दे दिया गया है।
चार सम्भव वाले इस तिबारी में केवल ज्यामितीय काष्ठ  कला दृष्टिगोचर होते हैं।  यहाँ तक की स्तम्भ शीर्ष पट्टिका भी आयताकार व अलकंरण विहीन है।  निष्कर्ष निकाला जा सकता है कि पहली मंजिल पर बरामदा /डंड्यळ  निर्माण हेतु ही काष्ठ स्तम्भ प्रयोग हुए हैं और स्थानीय काष्ठ कलाकारों ने ही स्तम्भ बिठाये होंगे। 
ढांगू , उदयपुर , डबराल स्यूं में कला या अलंकरण बिहीन तिबारियों का होना सामन्य बात थी क्योंकि बरामदा को आकार देने हेतु स्तम्भ बिठाये जाते थे व पहली मंजिल का बरामदा बैठक /conferences / या शादी वविवाह में पौणो /मेहमानों  को ठहराने हेतु काम आता था।  जनार्दन कुकरेती की यह तिबारी /डंड्यळ  भी बैठक   थी  विशेषतः जब जनार्दन कुकरेती ग्राम प्रधान थे।

History of King Bhavani Shah of Tehri Riyasat – 6
History of Tehri Kingdom (Tehri and Uttarkashi Garhwal) from 1815 –1948- 154

 Kumaon Commissioner Hennery Ramsey was getting notices/letters regularly from both sides - Bhavani Singh and Sher Singh after death of Sudarshan Shah. Ramsey was getting tussle incidents reports from other sources too.  Assistant Commissioners had been informing regularly too.  Henry sent reports to his higher authorities.  They had apprehension that there might be civil war between two groups.
     Henry passed an order that till the official took decision, Tahsildar of Tehri Court Jiva Nand would manage the Kingdom administration. Henry informed the decision to both the groups in Tehri.  (1)
      Tehri court employees and elites came to know that suddnenly Khavasans of Sher Singh and Bhavani Singh disappeared from Tehri.  Jiva Nand Tahsildar reached to treasury with the order letter of Ramsey.  Jiva Nand found that the treasury was totally empty.
 Treasury theft was connected by disappearances of Khavasans of both Sher Singh and Bhavani Singh.  Bhavani Singh informed Ramsey on 13th August 1859 that Jiva Nand found empty treasury and Khavasans   also disappeared (2)

आत्मस्त्रीधनगुह्यानां गोप्ता बन्धुस्तु मित्रवत्त I
धनदस्तु कुबेरःस्याद्यम: स्याच्च सुदंडकृत् II  (shukraneeti 1.80)
 Translation –
   As the kindred does not open the secrets about body wife, wealth, and other secrets of friends to outsiders. Same way, the King should have the same characters. The king should offer monetary help (as Kuber) to his subjects and should punish if they do crime.
The CEO should never open tell the top secrets of organization to outsides at any costs .

उनियालों की बसाहत  कारण अमाल्डू  डबरालस्यूं  का  महत्वपूर्ण गांव है।  अशोक उनियाल ने सूचना दी कि अमाल्डू में तिपुर/दो मंजिला  मकानों का रिवाज रहा है और वह  भी राजराजेश्वरी देवलगढ़ दरबार की तर्ज पर।  सम्प्रति भी एक तिपुर  के पहली मंजिल पर बिठी तिबारी की विवेचना ही है।  अमाल्डू  डबरालस्यूं  में   जगदीश प्रसाद  उनियाल की यह तिबारी  कई मायनों में विशेष तिबारी कहलायी जायेगी। सबसे  पहलि  विशषता है कि दक्षिण गढ़वाल में    तिपुर  (दो मंजिला ) मकान में बहुत कम तिबारी देखने को मिलती हैं , अब तक के  सर्वेक्षण में तो नहीं मिली है।   जगदीश प्रसाद  उनियाल की तिबारी की अहम विशेषता तिबारी कटान  व तोरण (मंडल , arch , मेहराब  अर्ध गोल मुरिन्ड )  तिपत्ती   रूप।  स्तम्भ व मेहराब मिलन के थांत पर कहीं भी छिलपट्टी /ब्रैकेट  नहीं है।
  चार स्तम्भों वाली तिबारी भी आम तिबारियों जैसे ही तीन मोरी /द्वार , खोळी  वाली तिबारी है। तिबारी पहली मंजिल के  पाषाण छज्जे  पर ही आधारित है।   दक्षिण गढ़वाल या गढ़वाल की अन्य तिबारियों भांति इस तिबारी के स्तम्भ में  आधार पर कुम्भी , फिर  डीला /round wooden  bracket , फिर उर्घ्वगामी पदम् दल , फिर शाफ़्ट  की मोटाई कम होना व  फिर डीला , उर्घ्वगामी कमल दल व फिर तोरण का अर्ध मंडल जो दूसरे  स्तम्भ के अर्ध तोरण से मिल पूरा तोरण बनता है।  दक्षिण गढ़वाल की अधिकतर तिबारियों में उर्घ्वगामी कमल दल के बाद जब शाफ़्ट कम मोटा जाता होता है तो स्तम्भ गोलाई लिए होता है किन्तु  जगदीश प्रसाद  उनियाल की तिबारी में स्तम्भ के शाफ़्ट गोलाई में न हो चौकोर हैं जो एक विशेषता है। शाफ़्ट के ऊपर डीले भी गोल नहीं अपितु चौकोर ही हैं।  यद्यपि तोरण तिपत्ती  आयकर का है किन्तु दीखनेमे कच अलग ही लगता है। 
 तोरण के बाम व दायं  पट्टिकाओं में में अष्टदल पुष्प अंकित है व वानस्पतिक अलंकरण है।  टॉर्न के ऊपर शीर्ष (मुरिन्ड ) आयताकार पट्टिका की है।  ज्यामितीय व प्राकृतिक कला /अलंकरण का नयनाभिरामी नमूना है।  मानवीय अलंकरण इस तिबारी में नहीं हुए हैं।
  निष्कर्ष में कहा जा सकता है कि अमाल्डू  म ेजगदीश प्रसाद  उनियाल के  तिपुर मकान की तिबारी कई दृष्टि से दक्षिण गढ़वाल की तिबारियों से भिन्न भी है व विशेष विशेष्ता लिए है।

    Tahsildar Jivanand administrated Tehri Kingdom for three months. Kumaon commissionaire Commissioner Henry Ramsey reached Tehri I first week of October 1859. (1)
    Ramsey reached with  a few solders to Tehri(2). Ramsey and his assistants persuaded Sher Singh for withdrawing his claim on the Tehri Crown. Ramsey offered Sher Singh for Jagir of  Jaunpur (10000 rupees annual income from tax) . A few Syanas , Padhan  of Jaunpur were favouring Sher Singh along with a section of  citizens.  Khaneti group was with Sher Singh. Sher Singh refused the offers o F Ramsey and insisted on taking Crown.   Ramsey took Sher Singh to Dehradun showing him that they were going for hunting. British army arrested Sher Singh in Dehradun. Referring Raturi, Dabral states that British administration sent a Gorkha army led by Gnagaram to Tehri. By that there was  no armed tussle   between the two groups n Tehri.

Flora mentioned in Yajnavalkyas Smriti

Applied Botany in Smriti and Purana
Botany History in Smriti, Purana etc. 4
BOTANY History of Indian Subcontinent –72

 Yajnavalkya Smriti is one of important Hindu Dharma Shastra books.  Manu Smriti was more famous in North India but Yajnavalkya Smriti was famous in South and West.
Scholars state that Yajnavalkya Smriti was created after Manu Smriti. Patrick states that most likely dates of Gupta period roughly 3rd and 5th century. (100. The author is not same Yajnavalkya that is discussed much in Upnishadas or Vedanta but the creator is named after  Yajnavalkya as respect .
Yajnavalkya Smriti has three books (Adhyaya) –Achara, Vyavahara and Prayschita.
 Since, Yajnavalkya Smriti is about code of conducts it is  less possibility that Yajnavalkya deals with plants and animals. 
 As expected , there is least mentions of  flora in Yajnavalkya Smriti.
 In 302 Stanza of Yajnavalkya Smriti mentions nine plants /trees as fuel /sacrificial plants  of nine Planets (Navagraha).
अक: पलाश: खदिर अपामागोंअथ पिप्पल: I
उदंबर: शमी द्वां  कशास्च समिधि: क्रमात II (Yajnavalkya Smriti 302 )
The nine Planet fuels /plants are in Yajnavalkya Smriti –
Arka fuel tree for  Ravi Sun 
Palsa  for Soma or Moon
Khadir for Mangal or Marsh
Apamarga for Budha or Mercury
Pippla for Vrihaspati or Jupitor
Udumbar for Shukra or Venus
Shami for Shani or Saturn
Durva for Rahu
