Rajputana www.RajputanaTourism.com The history of the Indian state of Rajasthan is about 5000 years old. Before that, Rajasthan was a part of several republics.

The history of Rajasthan can be classified into three parts owing to the different epochs- Ancient, Medieval and Modern. Ancient Period, up to 1200 AD

Rajput clans emerged and held their sway over different parts of Rajasthan from about 700 AD. It was a part of the Mauryan Empire. Other major republics that dominated this region include the Malavas, Arjunyas, Yaudhyas, Kushans, Saka Satraps, Gupt

as and Hunas. The Rajput clans ascendancy in Indian history was during the period from the eighth to the twelfth century AD. The Pratihars ruled Rajasthan and most of northern India during 750-1000 AD. Between 1000-1200 AD, Rajasthan witnessed the struggle for supremacy between Chalukyas, Parmars and Chauhans. Medieval Period, 1201 - 1707

Around 1200 AD a part of Rajasthan came under Muslim rulers. The principal centers of their powers were Nagaur and Ajmer. Ranthambore was also under their suzerainty. At the beginning of the 13th century AD, the most prominent and powerful state of Rajasthan was Mewar. Modern Period, 1707 - 1947

Rajasthan had never been united politically until its domination by Mughal Emperor - Akbar. Akbar created a unified province of Rajasthan. Mughal power started to decline after 1707. The political disintegration of Rajasthan was caused by the dismemberment of the Mughal Empire. The Marathas penetrated Rajasthan upon the decline of the Mughal Empire. In 1755 they occupied Ajmer. The beginning of the 19th Century was marked by the onslaught of the Pindaris.

जब-जब तेरी तलवार उठी, तो दुश्मन टोली डोल गयी।फीकी पड़ी दहाड़ शेर की, जब-जब तुने हुंकार भरी॥
था साथी तेरा घोड़ा चेतक, जिस पर तु सवारी करता था।थी तुझमे कोई खास बात, कि अकबर तुझसे डरता था॥

हर मां कि ये ख्वाहिश है, कि एक प्रताप वो भी पैदा कर...े।देख के उसकी शक्ती को, हर दुशमन उससे डरा करे॥
करता हुं नमन मै प्रताप को,जो वीरता का प्रतीक है।तु लोह-पुरुष तु मातॄ-भक्त,तु अखण्डता का प्रतीक है॥

हे प्रताप मुझे तु शक्ती दे,दुश्मन को मै भी हराऊंगा।मै हु तेरा एक अनुयायी,दुश्मन को मार भगाऊंगा॥
है धर्म हर हिन्दुस्तानी का,कि तेरे जैसा बनने का।चलना है अब तो उसी मार्ग,जो मार्ग दिखाया प्रताप ने॥

"माई ऐडा पूत जण जैडा राणा प्रताप अकबर सोतो उज के जाण सिराणे साँप"
"चार बांस चौबीस गज, अष्ट अंगुल प्रमाण,ता ऊपर सुलतान है, मत चूके चौहान"

"बलहट बँका देवड़ा, करतब बँका गौड़,हाडा बँका गाढ़ में, रण बँका राठौड़"

क्षत्रियों की छतर छायाँ में ,क्षत्राणियों का भी नाम है |
और क्षत्रियों की छायाँ में ही ,पुरा हिंदुस्तान है |
क्षत्रिय ही सत्यवादी हे,और क्षत्रिय ही राम है |
दुनिया के लिए क्षत्रिय ही,हिंदुस्तान में घनश्याम है |
हर प्राणी के लिए रहा,शिवा का कैसा बलिदान है |
सुना नही क्या,हिंदुस्तान जानता,और सभी नौजवान है |
रजशिव ने राजपूतों पर किया अहसान है |
मांस पक्षी के लिए दिया ,क्षत्रियों ने भी दान है |
राणा ने जान देदी परहित,हर राजपूतों की शान है |
प्रथ्वी की जान लेली धोखे से,यह क्षत्रियों का अपमान है |
अंग्रेजों ने हमारे साथ,किया कितना घ्रणित कम है |
लक्ष्मी सी माता को लेली,और लेली हमारी जान है |
हिन्दुओं की लाज रखाने,हमने देदी अपनी जान है |
धन्य-धन्य सबने कही पर,आज कहीं न हमारा नाम है |
भडुओं की फिल्मों में देखो,राजपूतों का नाम कितना बदनाम है |
माँ है उनकी वैश्याऔर वो करते हीरो का कम है |
हिंदुस्तान की फिल्मों में,क्यो राजपूत ही बदनाम है |
ब्रह्मण वैश्य शुद्र तीनो ने,किया कही उपकार का काम है |
यदि किया कभी कुछ है तो,उसमे राजपूतों का पुरा योगदान है |
अमरसिंघ राठौर,महाराणा प्रताप,और राव शेखा यह क्षत्रियों के नाम है ||

Mehndi or Henna is a paste that is bought in a cone shaped tube and is made into designs for men and women. It is also derived from the Sanskrit word mendhikā.The use of mehndi and turmeric is described in the earliest Hindu Vedic ritual books. It was originally used for only women's palms and never for men, but as time progressed, it is more natural for men to wear it. Haldi (staining oneself with turmeric paste) as well as mehndi are Vedic customs, intended to be a symbolic representation of the outer and the inner sun. Vedic customs are centered around the idea of "awakening the inner light". Traditional Indian designs are of representations of the sun on the palm, which, in this context, is intended to represent the hands and feet.
