Kumbhalgarh prashasti

EditedUdaipur: Contrary to the popular belief which holds famous Gagron fort in Jhalawar as a water fort, a famous stone inscription of 15th century describes it as a hill fort. However, the recent revelation comes from a more than 500-year-old stone inscription 'Kumbhalgarh Prashasti' installed during the reign of Maharana Kumbha at Kumbhalgarh fort. In the fourth inscription, Gagron fort has been referred as 'Gangrat' that Kumbha had won during one of his military expeditions along with Bundi," claims Sri Krishna Jugnu, author of many books on the history of Rajasthan. "Kumbalgarh Prashasti was built by Maharana Kumbha on November 3, 1460 AD. Gagron is one among six iconic forts in the state featuring in Unesco's World Heritage Sites.Many writers describe it as a water fort due to its location on a summit at the confluence of Aamjad, Kali Sindh & Ahu Rivers and as its three sides are surrounded by water.

Maharana Kumbha was one of the famous rulers of Mewar. He was born in1417. He ascended the throne of Mewar in 1433. There are different sources that tell us about his life and achievement. We can get information about him through Prashasthis which were composed by his court poet. Famous Prashastis - Kumbhalgarh Prashasti, Rankapur Prashasti, Kirti Stambh etc. We can also get information about him "Eklinga Mahtamaya". Eklinga Mahatamaya tells us that he was well versed in Vedas, Smritis, and Upanishads.

The name "Adbhut-ji" seems to be a local name for the three-faced aspect of Shiva; both the temples contain a three-faced idol of Shiva. One theory identifies Samadhishvara temple as the Tri-bhuvana Narayana or Bhoja-svamin temple referred to in historical records.
