Chritar Sixteen: Tale of Chhajia

Chritar Sixteen or Charitar 16, also called Tale of Chajjia, is a Charitar mentioned in Charitropakhyan, a Bani of Guru Gobind Singh. It is about a Manmat(i)Lady(prostitute), Chajjia , who played trick to have sex with a King, but King was Dharmic and knew his Dharam and he went away playing trick with her in limits of his Dharam and to save his Dharam.

Background of Charitropakhyan

Charitropakhyan is conversation between a wise adviser (minister or "manteree" ਮੰਤ੝ਰੀ s ) to Raja (king) Chitar Singh; each charitar or trick is mainly in connection with the wiles of women (plus a few connected with men) and other worldly tales of life, in order to save his handsome son Hanuvant from the false accusations of one of the younger ranis (queens). The minister tries to explain to the Raja that there can be trickery in human behaviour and that one needs to analyse the situation carefully before drawing any quick conclusions.

Guru Gobind Singh has given these "opakhyan" (already told) stories to Sikhs as a guide to upholding morality. The tales highlight human behaviour by people driven by lust, passion, desire, jealousy and/or greed and how these evil doers can utilise tricks or deception or charm or other activity to cover their tracks. The purpose of the stories is for us to learn about negative human behaviour by some people who are driven by evil intent. One needs to tread carefully in life and understand the many negative traits exist in some evil doers.

The first part of Charitropakhyan is Chandi Charitar. This is the writing of Guru Gobind Singh describing the positive charitars of Chandi (God) and asking for blessing of Almighty before the rest of this bani is narrated. The second tale, Charitar 2 is the narration of the conversation between the minister and Raja Chiter Singh. He has a long communication with his Minister on Charitropakhyan lasting for many days.

The First charitar ends with ਇਤਿ ਸ੝ਰੀ ਚਰਿਤ੝ਰ ਪਖ੝ਯਾਨੇ ਚੰਡੀ ਚਰਿਤ੝ਰੇ ਪ੝ਰਥਮ ਧ੝ਯਾਇ ਸਮਾਪਤਮ ਸਤ੝ ਸ੝ਭਮ ਸਤ੝ ॥੧॥੪੮॥ਅਫਜੂੰ॥ (iti sree charitr pakhyaanay chandee charitray pratham thhyaai samaapatam (ends)- satu subham satu ॥1॥48॥afjoon॥) which means "Here Sri Charitr-pakhyan's Chandi Charitar the first citation ends - true good and true".

All the other charitars end with ਇਤਿ ਸ੝ਰੀ ਚਰਿਤ੝ਰ ਪਖ੝ਯਾਨੇ ਤ੝ਰਿਯਾ ਚਰਿਤ੝ਰੇ ਮੰਤ੝ਰੀ ਭੂਪ ਸੰਬਾਦੇ ਦ੝ਤਿਯ ਚਰਿਤ੝ਰ ਸਮਾਪਤਮ ਸਤ੝ ਸ੝ਭਮ ਸਤ੝ ॥੨॥੭੮॥ਅਫਜੂੰ॥ (iti sree charitr pakhyaanay triyaa charitray mantree (minister) bhoop (king) sanbaathay (between) thutiy charitr samaapatam (ends) - satu subham satu ॥2॥78॥afjoon॥) which means "Here Sri Charitr-pakhyan's Triyaa Charitar between Minister and King duality trickery ends - true good and true" This itself shows that these Charitars from number 2 onwards were the discourse between King Chitra Singh and his minister.

Charitar number 2 tells us how a foolish and quick decision which a person takes with their eyes closed, without analysing the situation and not going into the fact of reality; acting foolishly according to the words of their wives, girl-friends or other loved ones can lead to serious injustice and distortion of the truth. Guru Ram Das said such person is foolish - ਜੋਰਾ ਦਾ ਆਖਿਆ ਪ੝ਰਖ ਕਮਾਵਦੇ ਸੇ ਅਪਵਿਤ ਅਮੇਧ ਖਲਾ ॥ which means "Men who dance to the order of dominant women are impure, filthy and foolish"

Overview of Charitar

It is about a King who live at banks of Satluj. A Prostitute name Chajjia also called Ladhia. When She saw the King of that place she get into her trap, but king took no care of her. She also used magic to get king attention but King haven't induldge into her.

She then attired herself as an ascetic or Jogi. King became happy. He thought that he should learn some qulaities from this Jogi. So king send his adviser to that jogi and that jogi(Chajjia) said to adviser to send king in midnight.

In Night, King reached that place, Ascetic(chajjia) said king to awake people and bring dhoop, rice, wine etc and raja did that then Jogi said that she will convert herself into Lady then male. In male form she will guide him Qualities and Mantras in female form she will do sex with King. King guided him that he can't do that.

Chajiya showed her original face and demanded sex. She said that one should fulfill sex needs of any lady if she demands it else one will go to hell. She threatened king that if he will not do he will call people. She tried to covince king , but king said he is in favour of Dharma.

When she called people, king said him not to call people. Then King played a scheme to save his dharma, he said lady to bring Cocain, Charas, Posat, Bhang(Cannabis and give it to me, let me drink it and i will do Sex with you whole night. She became happy.

When lady bring all intoxicants and prepared it, ing thought a scheme he start giving intoxicants to Ladhiya. He was acting like he will do sex with her but no when ladhiya became uncouncious. King left him there and returned to home.

Chritar - English translation

Dohira

There lived a Raja at the banks of river Satluj. Enticed by the lure of his wealth, a prostitute came over.(1)

Arril

She was called Chhajia and, to her rich patrons, she was known by the name of Ladhia. Any body who saw her felt a seductive sensation through her beauty.(2)

Dohira

She fell in love with that Raja but the Raja did not get into her trap. She commenced on her designs how to meet him.(3)
‘He is not falling in love with me, what should I do. ‘Neither he comes to my house, nor calls me over.(4)
‘I must contrive quickly,’ thinking thus she indulged in the magical charms to allure him.(5)
She was exhausted performing the charms but the Raja never turned up. Then, to tempt the Raja she devised a scheme.(6)
She put on the saffron coloured attire, disguising herself as a Jogan, the ascetic, entered the Royal Court and paid the obeisance.(7)

Arril

The Raja was contented to see an ascetic and thought he could learn a few charms from her. The Raja sent one of his attendants to learn some magical faculties.(8)

Chaupaee

The attendant walked over to her house and conveyed her the Raja’s intention. ‘Please do me a favour and enable me learn some charms.’(9)

Dohira

The Jogan opened her eyes after a period of three hours and said, ‘If you want to learn the charms then bring the Raja here.(10)
‘Past mid-night he should come to us and, with the blessings of Gorakh Nath, he will not go back disappointed.’(11)

Chaupaee

The attendant conveyed to the Raja by waking him up at Past-midnight and brought him to the Jogan. At the sight of the Raja she sighed with relief.(12)

Dohira

She told the Raja to send all the courtesans away and fetch the festival lights, flowers and vintage wines.(14)
The Raja ordered all his people to leave, and stayed alone to seek magical charms.(15)

Chaupaee

The Raja remained alone with her and she said, ‘To begin with I will show you a miracle and, thereafter, the magical charms will be taught to you.(16)

Dohira

‘I will convert a man into a woman and a woman into a man. ‘Becoming a man I will teach you charms and, then turning into a woman I will indulge in sexual play with you.’(17)
Said the Raja ‘The man who confers the charms is the father and a woman the mother.' ‘One should provide them service instead of involving in sexual plays.'(18)

Arril

‘By rendering service and bowing head in obeisance to the Guru for a long time, with great efforts, the charms are learnt. ‘You bow your head before him and to learn you perform playful actions.’(l9)

Chaupaee

Thereafter ascetic added, ‘To meet you I have disguised myself like this. ‘Now you bedeck my bed and enjoy sex with me.(20)

Dohira

‘My mind has been craving to meet you and every limb of my body is getting impassioned. ‘O my love! Come to my ravishing bed and enthral me with your company.(21)
‘But if you attempt to run away, I will get you caught by shouting “thief” and abuse you as well. ‘Therefore, my love! Forget all the apprehensions and indulge with me in fornication.(22)
‘If a woman comes to her husband tormented with the sexual desire, ‘And, if she faces disappointment, then, her husband is fit to be thrown into hell.(23)
‘If a person does not grant the benevolence of carnal fulfilment to a sex desirous woman, then, (that person), deserves to be cast off into hell.(24)

Arril

‘God gave me birth into the house of a prostitute and I disguised myself into an ascetic to meet you. ‘Now you be quick and adorn my bed. I am your maid, please don’t torment me.(25)

Dohira

‘What if you are astute? You must not be proud of your youth. ‘I am afflicted with the arrow of separation, don’t let it dissipate.(26)

Arril

‘Don’t lose this opportunity; I am in the grip (of Cupid) and drowning in the sea of passion up to the brim. ‘Don’t let me drown into the dense and dark cloudy night without sexual fulfilment.(27)
‘People come from all directions and get their mind pleasing aspirations fulfilled, then what wrong have I done? ‘You cannot narrate any as (I have done nothing wrong). ‘I am your slave, please come to my bed’.(28)
(The Raja said), ‘I had come to you to learn the charms but you are playing such a drama. ‘Why should I indulge in sex with you? ‘By doing this, I am afraid, I will go astray of my righteous path.’ (29)

Chaupaee

The concubine implied numerous ploys, performed various blandishments, and executed several magical charms, But she could not win the favour of the Raja.(30)

Arril

Then she jumped out to the courtyard and shouted, ‘thief, thief,’ To frighten the Raja. As he refused to have sex with her, she wanted to entrap him.(31)
People, hearing the call of ‘thief’, came running. But she told them that she was shouting in her dream. When they had gone away, holding Raja’s arm she said, ‘Either you have sex with me or I will get you trammelled.’(32)

Dohira

Then the Raja contemplated, ‘It will be wise for me to play some trick to get out of this place.(33)
If I run out, my honour is ruined, and if I indulge in sex, my Dharma (the righteousness path) is lost. (34)
‘Both the paths are arduous, O God, please help me.’(35)

Chaupaee

‘O my love! Listen to me. One’s birth is worthless if, after coming across a pretty woman like you, (36)
one abandons her. ‘Dishonourable would be the descent of such a person.’(37)
‘You, immediately, make the marijuana, cannabis, opium available, and joyfully serve them with your own ands.(38)
‘Yourself, you drink wine, and let me quaff cannabis to enable me to enjoy sex with you during all the four watches.’(39)

Chaupaee

Hearing this, that mindless was overwhelmed, and did not comprehend the real motive. Being too happy, she arranged all the intoxicants which were asked for.(40)

Dohira

The woman brought the marijuana, cannabis and opium, and Presented to him the thoroughly grounded cannabis along with seven times decanted wine.(41)

Arril

The Raja had determined the substance of her charm, (and planned,) ‘After enchanting her and making her to lie down in the bed. ‘Then leaving sixty gold coins, I will run away, and, thus, save my Dharma.(42)

Dohira

‘She does not understand the essence of love - as money is her only passion. ‘How can a reptile and a prostitute think in good terms of their friends?’(43)
Satisfied and pondering this way, the Raja served her wine in abundance. To run away he put her, when intoxicated with wine, in the bed.(44)
The Raja had served her the cups full of wine with his own hands and cunningly made her go to sleep.(45)

Arril

He had made her to drink cups after cups of the wine and showed extraordinary affection. When she went into deep slumber, he put sixty gold coins and took to his way.(46)
If a (strange lady) wants to make love with you, do not show her affection. One who wants to relish your (sensual) companionship, don’t relate with her. One whose mind is not intelligible enough, don’t divulge your inner thought.(47)

Dohira

Intoxicating the woman and leaving sixty gold coins, the Raja ran away. Without being noticed by anybody he returned and settled down in his own house.(48)
Arriving home, he thanked his luck for saving his Dharma this time and determined, ‘Now I will roam around different countries to spread God’s exaltations, and swore never to heed to a strange (woman).(49)

Dohira

‘The same determination is abiding in my mind and I will never attend to another’s woman.(50)(1)

Gurmat Viewpoint

King met Ladhia or Chajjia to know about Mantra so king went their to gain some knowledge or wisdom but Ladhia who was there for sex did not able to do that with king because king was strong of his dharma and he played trick in limit of dharma to save his dharma and also give money to her because She gave her a Message that to save dharma is important thing so never visit, King also learned various things.

There are Many Gurmat Morals present in this charitar:

  • One should act according to his Dharma, Dharma is most important thing, The King saved his Dharma and played Trick for saving his dharma only.
  • Never visit Brothels or prostitutes or Parayi naar, It is against view of Dharma and is also against Sikhism.
  • There is no power is Magic(Jantar, Mantar, tantra)
  • King also said that one who gives Updesh of Quality is like Guru and like Mother. (ਪ੝ਰਖ ਮੰਤ੝ਰ ਦਾਇਕ ਪਿਤਾ ਮੰਤ੝ਰ ਦਾਇਕ ਤ੝ਰਿਯ ਮਾਤ ॥ ਤਿਨ ਕੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਕੀਜਿਯੈ ਭੋਗਨ ਕੀ ਨ ਜਾਤ ॥੧੮॥). This tells that King knows Dharma and he knows how to act with guru. If he would be some Manmat(i) he would definately gone for sex.
  • The lady which can do positive for you do positive for her but a lady which is danger to Dharma then stay away from her, and don't share your things with such lady who is danger to your dharma. (ਜੋ ਤ੝ਮ ਸੌ ਹਿਤ ਕਰੇ ਨ ਤ੝ਮ ਤਿਹ ਸੌ ਕਰੋ ॥ ਜੋ ਤ੝ਮਰੇ ਰਸ ਢਰੇ ਨ ਤਿਹ ਰਸ ਤ੝ਮ ਢਰੋ ॥ ਜਾ ਕੇ ਚਿਤ ਕੀ ਬਾਤ ਆਪ੝ ਨਹਿ ਪਾਇਯੈ ॥ ਹੋ ਤਾ ਕਹ ਚਿਤ ਕੋ ਭੇਦ ਨ ਕਬਹ੝ ਜਤਾਇਯੈ ॥੪੭॥).
