Hello Guys .Good Afternoon.

I hope you all know about shivaji maharaj but this blog is for who do not know about the great chatrapati shivaji maharaj.

First you know that after mughals came in india in 12th centuryafter that they ruled over india and after over 400 years one king born to fight with moghals and give some happiness of maharashtra as well as india.

Chatrapati Shivaji maharaj was born in 1630 at Shivneri fort in Pune district.his mother name is Jijau and father name is Shahajiraje bhosale who is sardar in adilshahi at vijapur which is part of karnataka region in india.

Maa jajau want to his son become a independent king and give freedom to his people.

Dadaji konddev trained shivba since his childhood. He is very humble child who is want to give justice for hindus because that time mughals attack on hindus temple and ladies also.they rape on ladies as well as child daughter.

So at the age of 12 in pune district one person rape on girl that time he was looking very angry and punished that person and killed him and giving lessons to his people that respect to ladies, do not hurt them by physically as well as mentally.

At the age of 14 he went with his friends on Rayreshwar Temple and did promise of "SWARAJYA".

First he add people into swarajya and fortunately he got some extraordinary people for his swarajya. He fight with nijamshahi after adilshahi and added some fort in swarajya like purandar fort, oanhala fort, vishalgad, pratapgad etc.

in 1657 one adilshahi sardar named "AFZALKHAN" came in maharashtra to kill shivaji maharaj.Afzal was so powerful person and intelligent as well.he is come in maharashtra via solapur and while his travelling road his people rapes on ladies,attack on temple and most important thing they attack on "TULAPUR TEMPLE" which is more importanat for hindus religion.

That time Shivaji maharaj planned some idea and he invites Afzal khan in satara on pratapgad.Afzal came with alot of soldiers but shivaji maharaj wear one extra proof jacket and hide one weapon in his hand and went there only with 2 person.one of these two person one called "JIVA MAHALA".

Finally he killed Afzal khan and announced his greatness in that area .

After afzal khan killed he continuously added other forts which is under adilshahi so adilshahi got frustrated of him and sent siddhi javhar to catch shiva .

in monsoon shivaji maharaj stayed on panhalgad in kolhapur district .siddhi came alot of soldiers and stayed almost 3 months to near by panhala gad so that shivaji maharaj did not came outside and not going anywhere.

That time another two big names came here that "BAJIPRABHU DESHPANDE " AND " SHIVAJI KASHID" WHO SACRIFICE THEIR LIFE FOR SWARAJYA.And finally shivaji maharaj came back to rajgad safely .

After that shivaji maharaj never look back .he fought very hard with moghals named aurangjeb.

He almost won all forts of moghals and outside of maharashtra also he rule so many part of india .

In 1674 he declares that he is king of maharashtra.His nature and some ethics are role model for many kings as well as today's era.

He is only one king who never interested in woman except wifes .He never disrespect any woman even his enemies.

If you know any detailed journey of shivaji maharaj go and read one book called "SHRIMAN YOGI" WRITTEN BY "Ranjeet Desai".

Thank You.
