This
site is dedicated to History & Developement
of Ang Pradesh (present Bhagalpur),
Its Language Angika,
Art & Culture, Literature, Tourism and other aspects.
The
leavening brush of Indias ancient history exerts everywhere
in Bihar. Though Bhagalpur today is a silent town, one can still
feel the past resonating here. After all, it ranked among the
six best Indian cities at one time.
Legend,
buttressed by a little hard evidence, has it that todays
Bhagalpur was the Champavati of 5th century BC. It was a period
when Indias earliest republics were evolving around the
Gangetic plains. Anga was one of these sixteen Mahajanapadas (republics),
and Champavati its capital. It was also referred to as Malini,
Champapuri, Champa Malini and Kala Malini.
Foundation
of this kingdom is attributed to a prince named Anga.The Jaina
Sutras refer to the city as adorned with gates, ramparts, palaces,
parks and gardens. The city is depicted as a veritable paradise
on earth, full of wealth, prosperity, joy and happiness. Champa
traces its origin to the neolithic age when it was lucrative enough
for the early settlers to inhabit the region. Ancient history
enumerates no less than 25 kings who ruled Anga prior to the period
of the Mahabharata. One such king was Lomapada, a contemporary
and friend of Raja Dasratha (father of Lord Rama). The last among
these kings was Karna, son of Kunti who fought the Great Mahabharata
War as the commander-in-chief of the Kaurava army.

The
Sultanganj Buddha is 2.3m high and 1m at its
widest point and weighs about 500kgs. It was cast by
the technique known as the 'lost wax' process, in which
a solid core of clay is overlaid with wax. The sculptor
models the fine details in the wax coating. The wax is
covered with a liquid layering of clay and plaster which
hardens to form a mould. When heat is applied the
wax melts and molten metal is poured in. The finished
statue is finally obtained by removing the outer
casting when cool.
The Sultanganj Buddha conveys an image of calm and
tranquillity and a spiritual detachment from the material
world . The Buddha's sangathi (monastic robe) clings so
closely to the body that it is almost invisible, but for a
series of string-like folds, giving the figure a wet-looking
appearance. The right hand is raised in abhayamudra (a
gesture of reassurance or protection) while the left hand,
with palm outward and held downwards indicates the
granting of a favour.

The temple of Angkor, the great historical lagacy of
Khmer civilization, stand majestically in Situ in north
-west Cambodia. At the heart of the Khmer empire,
Angkor Thome, for over 500 years from the ninth to
the fifteen century, the monuments constructed
by
Ang-inhabitants (People belonging to Ang Mahajanpad
of ancient India whose language was Angika.) during
1200 A.D.
belong to the classic period of Khmer art
and are unrivalled in architectural greatness. "The
temples startle with their splendour and perfection
but beyond the emotions they evoke lie complex
microcosms of the universe steeped in cosmology".
Khmer art of the period includes finely modelled
sculptures of startling beauty. "Sensuous, yet never
erotic, male and female forms stand in grandeur and
dignity offering universal appeal, past and present".
Down Rooney,
It is believed that the people from Ang
region (Angika
speaking region) of India used to visit South-East
Asian Countries for the purpose of business since
500 B.C. or before. Later on these Ang inhibitants had
started to establish colonies. In this process Combodia
(Ang-Dweep), Vietnam(Champa), Pahow-Ang, Kantoli,
Malaysia and other coloniel countries were formed and
ruled by Ang-inhabitants.
This temple is still considered as 8th wonder
and is
one of the greatest mystries to be solved.

Karna
: The Real Hero of Ang |
|
From
his very childhood Karna was called the son of charioteer.
This was disgraceful for him. In the atmosphere of inequality
then prevailing Dronacharya could not train him in the science
of Arms because he was not the prince. But Karna had inborn
genius and natrul strength. In that caste ridden age he made
parshuram teach him the science of arms and got through the
test of Brahminism.
While Arjuna
stood in the battle-feild maddened with the pride of his power
and challenged the enemy soldiers, Karna accepted his challenge.
Arjuna got frightened and to avoid battle insulted him by
calling him sutputra, even then Kunti kept quiet.
Historians,
writers of Purans and great poets have ignored Karna, who
imbued the nation with enthusiasm, strength, self - respect
and love for truth, and have established Yudhisthir as a pillar
of the nation by showering upon him epithets like Dharmaputra
(Son of Religion) and Dharmaraj (Ruler of Religion).
Yudhisthir, the hero of Mahabharata, was an illegitimate child
of Pandu. Not only this, he lacked honesty and truth. Karna
was born to Kunti, when she was Virgin. Karna dedicated his
whole life to charachter- building and on the basis of his
supreme manliness tried to become the best man in his life.
He left an everlasting impression on the minds of arrogant
persons by saying - ";You are born in the family of Gods,
but i have only my manliness."
