              Parushuram Thapliyal was born on 10th April 1927 in village Gangoli Sain, Khatsyun of Pauri Garhwal. Parushuram is grandson of the elder brother of great Himalayan stage playwright Bhavani Datt Thapliyal.
In 1978-79 , Parshuram Thapliyal published 'Garhwali Ramcharitmanas' based on the 'Ramcharit Manas by Tulsidas.
      Parahuram used the same pattern of Tulsidas in illustrating Ramcharit Manas in Garhwali as Doha (Couplets), chaupaya (quatrain) etc. Parshuram Thapliyal translated poems of Ramcharit Manas very effectively
   Garhwali language historian and critic Abodhbandhu Bahguna appreciated his work.

अफुंमु  पैसा नीं

हाय पैसा ! हाय पैसा / अर यकुलि रै जांद वो
काख पर रंदा अपछाण जख

Kuki's Cookies
              God Men are not Good Men
-       
          Cookie Cooker (Comedy): Bhishma Kukreti

          Gone are the days when God man used to be god man too. These days, people are telling me that God men are not Good men. Recent case is of Zakir Naik.
          In every sect, there are God Men and all God Men are not Good Men. Chandraswami was called God Man but he was never been a Good Man. Historians are still searching the reasons for people or politicians tagging him as a God Man. Perhaps being a Tantrik, politicians or people made him God Man. In real sense Chandraswami was a power broker. But for that matter every selfish priest seems be a power broke between the man and God.
       God Man Rampal was also not a Good Man. There was a story about another God Man taking money for killing (Supari) a billionaire businessman that that so called God Man could buy an Ashram in Haridwar. Is not an irony that for getting a tag of God Man of Hardwar that person was ready for killing a human being?
   Rampal was a God Man and he is now in jail.
     Asharam Bapu got fame that he was a God Man but now, the bad man is in jail. There were millions of followers of Asharam Bapu. He proved that he was a Bad Man.
         In Hindu Purans, there are stories about many God Men becoming not Good Men in later stage. Hiranyakashyap, Ravan, Bhashmasur etc. were Good Men. They did Tapas and got blessing. After getting blessing from Ishwaras, those God Men became demons. Absolute power makes a person corrupt and same makes a God Man to Bad Man. Asharam Bapu never needed to become bad man. However, he got impression that now, he was God and Asharam started becoming Bad Man. Hiranyakashyap, Ravan, Bhashmasur also got impression that they had become GOD and no God can harm them even they would do bad activities for human beings. It is really difficult for devotee as Hiranyakashyap or Ravan to resist challenging the God after gaining the absolute power from the same God.
  The chemical reaction between pride and greed make a God man to not a Good Man. Pride and greed for a God Man is nothing but a nuclear bomb that destroys the inner human being in a God Man. The huge followers and facilities for exploiting followers make the God Man a demon.
        There are thousands of God Men who are God Men and Good Men too.  Swami Shivanand of Rishikesh and Swami Shradhand Nand of Gurukul Kangri were God Men and Good Men too. However, God Men but a Good Men too don't get publicity as Zakir Naik is getting publicity more than he deserves. Soullessness, human less value but mesmerizing speaking power of a God Man makes him Bad Man.
     Many God Men were Good Men but his immediate disciples or family members were not Good Men. After the death of Sadguru Mahraj and Satya Sai Baba, their disciples showed that they were never Good Men. Greed of making family members in charge of Ashram is nothing but a God man becoming bad man.
        The easiest act for a human being is to become a God Man. The more difficult act for any human being is to be remained Good Man even after becoming the God Man. However, the most difficult act for a human being is to remain a good human being for life. I would like to be first the Good Human being rather than God Man and then becoming a Bad Man.

History of British Rule/Administration over Kumaun and Garhwal (1815-1947) -10
            History of Uttarakhand (Garhwal, Kumaon and Haridwar) -848

                              By: Bhishma Kukreti (History Student)
  Apart from land tax on people of Garhwal, there were other various taxes on the citizens in Trail period.
  The miscellaneous tax in Garhwal under Gurkha rule in 1811 was as under (Atkinson)
Tax /Kar -----------------------------Gurkha rupees
Salami or presentation ------------------ 1147
Mijhari /Dom Kar of Leather Tanning on Scheduled Caste – 454
Tandkar , Weaving tax --------------------- 1283
Soniya fagun /festivals tax--------------------1495
Tambakhan, Copper mines/mint--------------2401
Addhani-Daftari , record keeping tax  ------------1495
Sayar , Import –Export duty ---------------------- 10900
Kuirsal / catechu tax--------------------------- 170
Kath-Bans , tax on bamboo and wood ------------ 600
Chungi , miscellaneous tax------------------ 200
Asmani-Farmani , Punishment tax ------------ 2000
  There were other taxes as taxes on hemp and hemp produces, opium, soaps, tobacco. There were taxes on mint, river crossing , slavery sales and purchase etc.
  Trail administration decided for banning on slavery and kept the tax structure the same as of Gurkha rule barring slavery tax, the order was passed on 2nd June 1815. However, later on British administration abolished Asmani and Farmani tax too. Trail stopped 'Dom kar' or tax on leather tanning (Atkinson page 289).
                     Tax on Food Articles
    There is interesting matter on taxation on food articles in Gurkha regime time. There was tax on export and import on food articles. However, officials of Gurkha administration exempted tax on a few people for food article taxes. The tax exemption resulted in loss for exchequer and complexities for Tax collector in Octori post.  There were a few Brahmins those were exempted for tax on food articles import and exports. The Gurkha officials exempted half the amount for certain Brahmins (2).  Trail wrote that he was against exemption of import and export taxes on food articles for a few Brahmins and he informed that he was stopping exemption. (3).
       There was pleas from the priests of Badrinath, Kedarnath and Kamleshwar temples that they should be exempted from food import taxes.
   However, the local administration did not abide the order of Trail and exempted taxes on Bheli, Sugar, Khand , grams, sandal  etc for Temples. (Atkinson, page 25) . The letter of Trail of 1st December shows that administrator did not abide the order of Trail.
            The tax officials were corrupt and they used to collect taxes on wood, forest produces from the businessmen  at Ghat or Octroi posts but did not submit the tax to the treasury. The state was always in loss of not getting actual revenues.  Trail advised to the administration for auctioning Octroi post on contract. The Shringar administration accepted the suggestion of Trail and started auctioning the Octroi post or toll tax posts to the contractors. The title for Wood tax was 'Kath-bans' (3).

Jeet Singh Negi: First Garhwali singer of gramophone and Akashvani
-
Critical and Chronological History of Modern Garhwali (Asian) Poetry – 44

                    Literature Historian:  Bhishma Kukreti

              " Too wheli Beera uchi nisi dandyun man ghasiyaryun ka bhesh man..." stirred so much the insight of Uttrakhand written by Jeet Singh Negi that not only common men but even the knowledgeable Uttarakhandis perceive that this famous song is folk song .
A couple of few people knew that Jeet Singh Negi created this song on the road, Agara road, Bhandup , Mumbai at around 11PM. This author is fortunate that he listened the autos-story of Jeet Singh Negi about creation of this song by Jeet Singh himself at the residence of Mrs Pushpa Dobhal and her husband Professor Radha Ballabh Dobhal, Garhwal Darshan, Mumbai. Professor Dobhal have the recorded tape told the story of creation of 'too wheli beera..." by Negi .
He was the initiator of creating Garhwali song, singing, performing cultural shows in various parts of India
I tried for searching on the net about complete biography of Jeet Singh Negi. However, my surprise that nothing much is written about this great personality of India in web-world.
This write up is to provide full honor to a legendary creative ever born in Uttarakhand.

          It is Negi's popularity that census department (jangana vibhag) of government of India (1961) in its Vol. XV, Uttar Pradesh, Part V, Gramya Survekhsan, page48, describes the popularity of song "too wheli beera..."

          Great Uttarkhandi personality Govindh Ballabh Pant was fond of the talent of Negi and he used to call Jeet Singh Negi for performing of welcoming cultural show before foreign delegates as cultural show by Negi's troop before Chinese delegate, when Pant was home minister of India.

            Inspection of Jagir Order (Sanad) by Trail
-               
       Administration of G. W. Trail in Garhwal and Kumaon -10
-
History of British Rule/Administration over Kumaun and Garhwal (1815-1947) -11
            History of Uttarakhand (Garhwal, Kumaon and Haridwar) -849
-
                              By: Bhishma Kukreti (History Student)

             Jagir or land offering by the Kingdom was common in Garhwal Kingdom and Gurkha rule in Garhwal. After British starting correcting the administration, hundreds of people started bringing the proofs (Copper scriptures, orders etc) about their Jagir (land offering from the Kingdom or Gurkha administration for reacceptance by British government.
             There were following types of Jagirs –
1-Offered at the time in War for bravery as in form of Raut
2-For exclusive skill as 'Mana –Chaunl', tantrik viadya etc
3- For compensating salary for the government employees as for Prime minister, minister or for army chief etc
4- Gunth for temples that was sued for rituals in temples
  When people showed copper inscriptions to Trail, Trail said that they should mould water containers or brad making 'tava' by those copper (Pande).
   Trail is called 'judge sab' in old records of Shrinagar about land management. In Shrinagar, Trail appointed Dujpati Dobhal as 'Kamdar' (executive) and Shivdatt as 'Munaduli' (announcer). Trail clearly instructed them that he would accept on those Jagirs for which the owners would place record or copper inscription those have red stamp from Nepal government or Gurkha administrators.  Dujpati Dobhal and Shivdatt planned for getting benefits of that instruction. Both the British representatives requested Basvanand Bahuguna the son of Lilanand Bahuguna for making drawing of red stamp on slate stone. After getting, the imprint of drawing of stamp on a blank paper through slate stone drawing, they wrote something. Shiv Datt had a friend Bairagi. Shiv Datt handed over the red stamped paper with instructions to Bairagi and sent him to Kumaon. By mistake, Shivdatt gave the blank paper with only stamp and no writing to Bairagi. Bairagi presented the papers to Trail in Almora.  By mistake, the blank paper with only red stamp 9no writing instruction) reached in the hands of Trail. Trail inquired about the facts in details. Dujpati Dobhal and Shiv Datt were found guilty.  Shrinagar administrators sent Dujpati and Shiv Datt with handcuffs to Almora.  Getting opportunity, Shiv Datt ran away from Almora to Lahore and died there (3).
        By that incident, Trail became more cautious and he inspected the 'Sanad' or offerings from old regimes very minutely. He refused the 'Sanad' offered by Nepal commanders Amar Singh Thapa or his son Ranjor Singh.
     Trail wrote to Gardner on 25th March 1816 (4)-
   " In 1811, Nepal court sent Bakhsi Dashrath Khatri and Kaji Bahadur Bhandari to Shrinagar for land management. Both the officers rejected the offerings (Sanad) offered by Garhwal Kings. Both the officers offered Jagir to a few persons. There is signature of either Dashrath or Khatri on the 'Sanad'. Nepal government declared balance land as land for army men. Therefore, after the declaration and offerings of the both officers we shall not accept other 'Sanad as authentic 'Sanad' except if there is an official noticing from Nepal court 
  The 'Sanad' presented by following persons are not accepted by Bakhsi Dashrath Khatri and Kaji Bahadur Bhandari but accepted by Ranjor Singh and Hikmat Singh Subedar whom Nepal court did not authorize for offering Jagir. Therefore, those Jagirs could not be continued (4).
    Amar Singh Thapa offered Jagir to Shiv Datt in Sambat 1869, Vrijpati, Karunanidhi , Kishna Datt and  Ramdatt in Sambat 1870.
   Offering by Ranjorsingh- Jivanand and Kamlapati in Sambat 1871,. In Sambat 1871, Ranjotsingh offered Jashodhar, Shivram, Brijpati and Chiranji those were positioned as 'daftari' Clerks or Record keepers).
Amar Singh Thapa and Ranjor Singh offered 'sanad'  with stamps to Prakash, Krishna Datt , Manglanand and Dharmadatt in Sambat 1870.  Manglanand was also offred another Jagir by both with duly stamp.
