  • ऋषि संदीपन:

वन्ति निवासी संदीपन कश्यप गोत्रीय ऋषि थे। वे धनुर्विद्या के श्रेष्ठ आचार्य थे। उनके आश्रम का नाम अंकपाद था। सुदामा, बलराम और श्रीकृष्ण इसी आश्रम में शिक्षा पाते थे। संदीपन ने उन्हें वेद, उपनिषद, राजनीति, चित्रकला, गणित, गांधर्व वेद, गजशिक्षा अश्व शिक्षा आदि चौसठ कलाएं सिखाई तथा दस अंगों से युक्त धनुर्वेद का ज्ञान प्रदान किया। दीक्षान्त अर्थात् शिक्षा समापन के अवसर पर ऋषि ने कृष्ण बलराम से गुरु दक्षिणा मांगी कि वे उनके डूबे पुत्र दत्त को समुद्र से निकाल लाएं। श्रीकृष्ण ने यह कार्य कर दिखाया, जिस पर संदीपनि ने अत्यन्त प्रसन्न होकर उन्हें आशीर्वाद दिया।

सांदीपन बड़े प्रतापी ऋषि थे। वसुदेव और देवकी ने कृष्ण को बुनियादी शिक्षा के लिए संदीपन ऋषि के आश्रम में भेजा था। भगवान कृष्ण ने चौंसठ दिनों में चौंसठ विभिन्न कलाएं सीखीं। सांदीपन ऋषि के आश्रम में कृष्ण और सुदामा का मिलन हुआ था। बाद में वे अच्छे दोस्त बन गए। कृष्ण, सुदामा और बलराम ने अपनी शिक्षा पूरी की थी और ऋषि के आश्रम में एक साथ वेद-पुराण का अध्ययन किया था। फलस्वरूप भगवान कृष्ण ने गुरुमाता से संपर्क किया और उन्हें गुरु दक्षिणा देने की इच्छा व्यक्त की। इस पर गुरुमाता ने गुरु दक्षिणा के रूप में अपने पुत्र को वापस मांगा, जिसकी प्रभास क्षेत्र में पानी में डूबने से मृत्यु हो गई थी। दरअसल, शंखासुर ने सांदीपनि ऋषि के पुत्र का हरण कर लिया था, सांदीपनि ने श्रीकृष्ण से उनके पुत्र को गुरु दक्षिणा के रूप में लाने को कहा
गुरुमाता की आज्ञा का पालन करते हुए, कृष्ण ने समुद्र में मौजूद शंखासुर नामक राक्षस का पेट चीर कर एक शंख निकाला, जिसे “पांचजन्य” कहा जाता था। इसके बाद वे यमराज के पास गए और ऋषि संदीपन के पुत्र को वापस लाकर गुरुमाता को सौंप दिया। जब श्रीकृष्ण और बलराम समुद्र में पहुंचे थे तो समुद्र ने बताया कि पंचज जाति का राक्षस शंख के रूप में समुद्र में छिपा हुआ है। हो सकता है कि उसने तुम्हारे मालिक के बेटे को खा लिया हो। भगवान कृष्ण ने शंखासुर का वध किया और गुरु के पुत्र को उसके पेट में खोजा, लेकिन वह नहीं मिला। तब श्रीकृष्ण शंखासुर के शरीर का शंख लेकर यमलोक पहुंचे। गुरु के पुत्र को यमराज से वापस ले लिया गया और गुरु सांदीपनि के पास लौटा दिया गया। संदीपन की माता का नाम पूर्णमासी तथा पिता का नाम देवऋषि था। उनके चाचा का नाम देवप्रस्थ था। उनके दादा सुरंतदेव और दादी चंद्रकला थीं। सांदीपनि मुनि की पत्नी का नाम सुमुखी देवी था। पुत्र मधुमंगल था जो भगवान कृष्ण का बचपन का मित्र था। उनकी पुत्री का नाम नंदिमुखी था जो राधा और ललिता की सखी थी। उनके गुरु नारद थे। नंद महाराज देवी पूर्णमासी को सम्मान देते थे और उन्होंने वृजभूमि में बड़ी प्रतिष्ठा की कमान संभाली थी। संदीपनी मुनि मूल रूप से काशी के रहने वाले थे और अवंतीनगरी में बस गए थे।

Rishi Sandipan:
Sandipan, a resident of Avanti, was a Kashyap gotriya sage. He was a master of archery. The name of his ashram was Ankapad. Sudama, Balram and Shri Krishna used to get education in his ashram. Sandipan taught him sixty-four arts like Vedas, Upanishads, politics, painting, mathematics, Gandharva Veda, Gajshiksha, horse education etc. and gave him the knowledge of Dhanurveda consisting of ten organs. On the occasion of convocation i.e. completion of education, sage and his wife, asked Krishna & Balram for Guru Dakshina & bring their drowned son Datta, out of the sea. On the occasion of convocation i.e. completion of education, sage & his wife asked Krishna & Balram for Guru Dakshina to bring their drowned son Datta out of the sea. Shri Krishna did this work, on which Sandipani was very happy and blessed him. Sandipan was a very brilliant sage. Vasudev and Devaki had sent Krishna to the hermitage of Sandipan Rishi for basic education. Lord Krishna learnt sixty-four different arts in sixty-four days. Krishna and Sudama had met in the hermitage of Sandipan Rishi. Later they became good friends. Krishna, Sudama and Balarama had completed their teachings and had studied Veda-Purana together at the Rishi’s ashram. Consequently Lord Krishna approached Gurumata and expressed his desire to give Guru Dakshina to her. On this, Gurumata, asked for her son back as Guru Dakshina, who had died by drowning in water in Prabhas area. In fact, Shankhasur had taken away the son of Sandipani Rishi, Sandipani asked Shri Krishna to bring her son as Guru Dakshina
Obeying Gurumata’s orders, Krishna ripped open the belly of a demon named Shankhasur present in the sea and took out a conch shell, which was called “Panchjanya”. After this he went to Yamraj and brought back the son of Rishi Sandipan and handed him, over to Gurumata. When Shri Krishna and Balram had reached the sea, the sea told that the monster of Panchaj caste is hidden in the sea in the form of a conch shell. It is possible that he has eaten your master’s son. Lord Krishna killed Shankhasur and searched for the Guru’s son in his stomach, but could not find him. Then Shri Krishna reached Yamlok with the conch shell of Shankhasur’s body. Guru’s son was taken back from Yamraj and returned to Guru Sandipani. The name of Sandipan’s mother was Poornamasi and his father’s name was Devrishi. His uncle’s name was Devprastha. His grandfather was Surantdev and grandmother was Chandrakala. Sandipani Muni’s wife’s name was Sumukhi Devi. The son was Madhumangal who was a childhood friend of Lord Krishna. His daughter’s name was Nandimukhi who was the friend of Radha and Lalita. His teacher was Narad. Nand Maharaj used to give respect to Goddess Purnmasi and she commanded great reputation in Vrijbhoomi. Sandipani Muni was originally from Kashi and had resettled in Avantinagari.
