The Story of Dhanna Bhakt and Lord Krishana

Dhanna Bhakt was the devotee of Lord Krishana. He was born at 1415 in Dhuan Village in Tonk District in Rajasthan. He was born of simple farmer family. They earn their living by ploughing the fields and sowing the grains.

His family respected the saints by serving the food with sharing house and lodging. Although he belonged to poor family yet he was a good host. As the saints came to his his house and in the morning he saw a saint was performing his daily routine by taking bath and also after taking bath worshiping the Shaligram the idol of Shri Krishana by bathing and sticking the Sandal and decorating with flowers and offering Bhog.At that time his age was at about five years.

He asked Shaligram from the Pandit and explained his wish for worshipping. The Pandit thought that he didn't know about worshipping and cast by Jatt couldn't do anything. By insistence of Dhanna Jatt the Pandit took the stone and had given it to Dhanna Bhakt as a Shaligram. Dhanna Bhakt brought it in his house and began to worship .

He thought that Lord Krishana actually would come and he would feed him with his own hands the bhog of the Roti of Bajra and the Sag of Sarson. But Shri Krishana didn't come for taking Bhog. He felt depressed and tried again and again. It was his firm belief that Shri Krishana would must come.

Six days were passed without eating food and drinking water. At last Shri Krishana had to appear from that stone that was given by Pandit. He fed the food to Shri Krishana with his own hands and Shri Krishana also fed him with his own hands. Pandit was surprised at this astonishing event. Because he had given only simple stone by picking on the earth. He was compelled to think how this astonishing event has happened. Since that time Shri Krishana remained with Dhanna Bhakt. Shri Krishana always helped in every situation.

Once the seeds were laying in his field for sowing. Some saints were came into his field as they were hungry he distributed all the seeds of grain.Now the field left without sowing seeds.

Jagirdaar asked for Levy and there was an astonishing event happened. There was a crop of gourds. Shri Krishana had already sown the seeds of Karma., that were converted into gourds. These gourds were full of diamonds and precious stones. Dhanna Bhakt gave two gourds to Jagirdaar. He opened them and astonishing at these gourds. He impressed at this incident and he made Moti Talab with those gourds. After partition of countries this talab is converted into Moti Nagar Dam.
