Matheran Art Sculpture of Folk God  Godha Baba In Original look After last Year Holi  at shree marunayak ji temple Bikaner 2023

In Bikaner year 1778 Two temples Shree Marunayak Ji temple and shree Madan Gopal/ Mohan  ji Temple were completed and launched for prayer of Bikaner peoples . The temple were  founded by Vesanav sampraday community of INDIA .In the fonder team of Temple , Matheran Artist community was presented with them as a designer of temple . 

Dr. Mulchand mahatma  matheran Artist of Bikaner is ready for repair to  Sculpture of  Godha Baba Folk God  of Bikaneri Folk  2023


 

I visited to both temples in this last week and there I saw lots of wall paintings  in Matheran style by Matheri artists of Bikaner .   On a one wall of that temple I saw a painting,  in that painting  a group of temple founder was painted and there name also mentioned on their image  or in that names I read name of Matheran Artist khemchand  Matheran .

Today is 2023 / 245 years has been completed of temple Shree Marunayak temple or Shree Madan Gopal /Mohan ji temple of Bikaner. There I noticed  all wall paintings are  original and safe . Because the trusty of that temples are very caring persons and they are knowing the value of their temple or that’s historical art and design.

The Temple of shree Marunayak ji Bikaner is in mid of Bikaner city ( Mohta Chouk ) . Or in my Bikaner city - we bikaneri peoples are trust very first in folk ( we are calling to that Lok ) .  Or the temples of my Bikaner are  also exposures of Bikaneri Folk ( Lok ) . In this format the temple of shree Marunayak ji was started a folk activity for festival Holi , It was new creation of folk for bikaneri peoples or it was started before 200 years in Bikaneri folk  from shree Marunayak temple Bikaner, The folk was created to that or Bikaner is calling to that character GODHA BABA .It was a imagination of folk for create new hope about life in vision of bikaneri peoples. so it was created in form of GODHA BABA a human character like a Folk God. This Kind of Power have only folk in our Indian Culture . so salute to my culture creators. 


Matheran Artist was converted to that folk imagination in form of a sculpture ( human figure ) . so a imagination of folk was came in sculpture form and bikaneri lok was presented to that as a folk god for prayer . This sculpture of Godha Baba Folk god went out to Temple of shree Marunayak ji on festival time of Holi . seven days this folk god Godha Baba ( sculpture )  live outside to temple or its move with Gaver of Holi . Gaver is folk activity or tradition of Bikaneri holi without gaver holi is not start or holi is get final stage by this gaver  so gave is very important folk activity of Bikaneri Holi , bikaneri holi is get  last step by  Folk god Godha Baba . this Folk god Sculpture is come back at his home Temple Shree Marunayak ji  Bikaner.   


Last 200 years to this folk culture is running continue in my city Bikaner or in Holi the Character folk god Godha baba is very much important . or this character is  original design of matheran Art of Bikaner. 

Last week senior Matheran Artist  Sir  Mulchand Mahatma - according to oxford dictionary  word - Doctor – sir Mmulchand Mahatma is Doctor of Matheran  Art,  Because last 40 years to he is busy in only matheran art work in Bikanerand he is doing it very perfectly .  So I can write for him Dr. Mulchand Mahatma  Matheran Artist   S/ O  Dr.  Ram Krishan ji mahatma Artist of Bikaner was invited to me at Shree Marunayak ji temple for visit to his work of Matheran Art . I went there or I saw Dr. Mulchand mahatma was busy in repairing work on damaged sculpture of Folk God Godha Baba .  kind  your information  the trusty of Shree Marunayak temple are committed  to matheran Artist for art work of Temple Marunayak ji , It is great think so I like it , I respect to it  or lots of regards for trusty of Shree marunayak Temple Bikaner from My Deep heart . 

There Dr. Mulchand Mahatma was removing to damaged part of that paper messy sculpture (Folk god  Godha Baba ) and then he was started repairing work.  In three days he was gave a original look to that  sculpture of paper messy  (Folk God  Godha Baba ) .  His four fathers were created that and he did repaired that in format of their matheran Art . I was surprised after know  about sculpture art in  Matheran Art , I can say  the matheran Art is not limited for painting , this  matheran art have sense of sculpture art  also in matheran art format .
