There is a Village in Block Chand, Sirhira where a Matha is situated, the priests of Matha, Giri Baba JIs are living there. It's very old story more than 600-800 Years, when some of Hindu People visit at Sirhira & founded a Matha. Spiritually, there are a Shivalaya where a lot people from village visits to Temple by chanting the Shiv Mantra & pour the Jala to Shivlingam in every year of Mahashivratri & Saavan Month of Hindi Calender, a temple of Sri Narsinha Bagawan Ji, and the greatest worship place of Priest of Matha, the Samadhi Shthal is spreading on many more places like Sri Aatmaram Baba JI's Temple, Sri Bhattu Fua's Temple, Sri Marrii Maai Temple on Matha. Initially, the Matha was spreading in a lot of area, where the Samadhi Shthal of the ancestors of Giri Baba JIs are based with the fourteen living ancestors had abandoned their auspicious life with the blesses of God to be alive forever as its a conservatives values for many of old time.
And they were living by spreading the techniques of “Hinduism” into all over the country. And it is said that a lot of disciples of our “Guru Shankarachrya”, had been suggested to walk for spreading the Hindu Religions & the techniques of Hinduism into all over the country during this time, thus one of them our “Guru, Shri Vishweshwar Giri Ji Maharaj”, one of the disciples of ‘Guru Shankaracharya’ with some of his disciples walked into Village, Sirihira, and he established Matha with our “Ancestors’ Worshiping Goddess, “Sri Shitala Devi Mata Jee” and a small ‘Shiavalaya’ of God “Shiv”.
Consequently, our Matha has been established in a very small land area by “Guru, Sri Vishweshwar Giri Jee Maharaj” along with some his disciples from a particular place. One of Information is also said that our ‘Ancestors’ worshiping Goddess, “Sri Shitala Mata Jee” was in Embodiment (AVATARIT in the form of Goddess) with our “Shri Samadhi Baba Jee”, as well as “ The Shivlingam of God Shiv” was also along with them. So, they were staying in a form of Sanyasi & spreading the techniques of Hinduism around the Villages. He started to make disciples around the villages & they used to get a lot of Donations, Daan & Dakshina by making “Pooja, Kathas” of God & run the Matha. They have a lot of disciples and they were also ‘Sanyasi’. Someone says that a lot of “Nagas” were coming to our Matha, they used to stay here, because we belong to a particular “Matha & Aashram”. Another conception is that our anscestor are from a place called “Karu Kamakhya” in Aasam in North-East of India.
When our Guru Vishweshara Giri Jee maharaj consider into ‘Samadhi Sthal’ to take “Samadhi, he appointed his one of disciples “Shri Rameshwar Giri Jee Maharaj, as our Guru of Matha. However, after sometime “Shri Rameshwar Giri Baba” took Samadhi & given all the command & conduction of our Matha to our very oldest & first ancestor by blood, “Shri Buddhiram Giri Baba Jee” to rule on Matha, so that each of our generation might be able to conduct worship “Pooja & Bhakti” of our “Samadhi Sthal & Shivalaya” forever. The brothers of “Shri Buddhiram Baba Jee” also have got meditation on Samadhi Sthal & considered as Samadhisht as well as he also took Samadhi later by handing over all the system of Matha to his children and this continue till now by generation to generation at our Matha.
Earlier, the very first priest of Matha took the Samadhishths at Samadhi - Shthal, and then his pupil was the priest of Matha, and later then someone else and so on. It continues for more than of 350-400 Years, and finally, Sri Sri 1008 Budhiram Giri Baba Ji who was appointed the priest of Matha as the Mahanth of Matha, and his blood related family started to live with its spiritual, conservative values, traditional values of Matha. He had four sons, Sri Ghoorahu Giri Baba Ji, Sri Ghamandi Giri Baba Ji, Sri Samanni Giri Baba Ji & Sri Bahadur Giri Baba Ji, though, only two son (Sri Ghamandi Giri Baba Ji & Sri Bahadur Giri Baba Ji) of Sri Budhiram Giri Baba Ji had got married & their family is living at Matha as the priest of Matha. Sri Ghamandi Giri Baba Ji had four sons, Sri Ramlakhan Giri Baba Ji (Whose family is living at Matha), Sri Raja Giri Baba Ji (Whose Samadhi is based on Samadhi - Shthal), Sri Naresh GIri Baba Ji, & Sri Kulli Giri Baba Ji (He was the Mahanth of a Matha in Mudi VIllage at Chainpur),
And the son of Sri Bahadur Giri Baba Ji had four Sons also, Sri Beni Giri Baba Ji, Sri Achchibar Giri Baba Ji (He one of Son is in USA since 1972, one of his son was Mukhiya of Village, & one of son is PDS owner), Sri Jagan Giri Baba Ji & Sri Kailash Giri Baba Ji (The freedom Fighter and Agitator to Burn the English Jail during the 1920s to 1940s) were the freedom fighter of during 1920s to 1940s of the agitation of India. Now they are the priest of these temples who has contributed in their whole life in spreading the religious task, and they have constructed the Schools, temples, & Mosques, Ponds, Safe lands for playgrounds to the children, contributed lands for Public Roads, Nalas, etc.
Latterly, the four sons of “Sri Bahadur Giri Jee” – Shri Beni Giri, Shri Akshaibar Giri, Shri Jagan Giri, & Shri Kailash Giri had got embodiment in the form of a very bravest, heartiest, and generous to humanity start to rule on our Matha. All of them were full of brevity to face any difficulties, freedom fighter against the ruling government of the English during the movement of Independence. They are also known as ‘Baba Ji’ for their gracious tasks towards society. Eventually, there are a lot of people in family who are doing for their career by either agriculture or business. As per our culture many a people of family conduct worship (Pooja, & Path) on the Shivalaya, & the temple of Samdhi Baba, Shri Aatmaram Baba Ji. Some of people in the family are living with their livelihood for their family & children at their home by culture & civilizations.
During the Independence movement in 1930s-1940s they were freedom fighter & they face punishment by the English Government for freedom fighting activities for a many times, but they were the very bravest men, and never afraid of it. During the early 1950s, “Shri Akshaibar Giri, Baba Ji” inspired the people of village to make donations to build an elementary school at Sirihira, and with the result a contractor was hired to build two classrooms for the schooling of the children not only for Sirihira but also for the children surrounding the villages of Sirihira. Baba Ji was very generous for human beings; he helped the people of village for their educations, marriages of girls around the village. Later in 2000s, his son (Shri Rajendra Giri), an engineer in America provided financial assistance to build an additional classroom for the school. Baba Ji also inspired the people of village to build up the building of temple of “Sri Thakur Ji”, “Kali Devi Ji”, and another many temples of around the villages. And he contributed his own money & got many a financial assistance of villagers from the particular villages to build the temples.
They saved the playground field from particular castes, SCs & STs in village in 1970s to 1980s, so that the studying students in the school might play in the ground. He also made free the pond of our village to the villagers from a particular group of people in village, so that the villagers might use the water of the pond to their animals, for bathing, etc. They fought against the social corruptions, “Kuritiyas”, unsocial activities, so that he could build a great dynasty for us. Our ancestors were Sannyasis and Baba Ji also spent their lives in spreading techniques of Hinduism in the surrounding villages. All the four brothers under the guidance of the greatest "Shri Akshaibar Giri Ji" have accomplished a lot of Social, Educational, Political, Economical & Cultural achievement for the society & family. "Shri Jagan Giri Ji" was the first selected (Mukhiya) head of Gram Panchayat, Sirhira for many a years continually. All the four brothers were one of the unique personality in that particular society during their era. The four brothers (Sri Beni Giri Baba JI's son Sri Hira Giri, Sri Acchibar Giri Baba Ji, Sri Jagan Giri Baba Ji and Sri Kailash Giri Baba Ji) had given whole of their life to build an great example of Humanity building social harmonious actions like building a mosque in village, building some of temples, schools, |
