Descent of Ramdev Ji and the Beginning of Miracles

King Ajmal Ji was a benevolent ruler who cherished his people as his own children, but he fell into deep anguish because he had no heir. Despite possessing all wealth and power, he felt an emptiness in his heart and could not hide his longing for a child.

Furthermore, the Pokhran region was plagued by the unrest of the evil spirit Bhairav and a severe famine, which devastated the lives of the people. After the famine was resolved, farmers, on their way to work in the fields, saw the king's face and returned, considering it an ill omen, which further deepened the king's despair.

Ajmal Ji returned to the palace and, before the idol of Lord Dwarkadheesh, tearfully poured out his suffering. He wondered if his childlessness was a divine punishment, what sin he had committed, and was engulfed in despair.

Following the advice of a court lady, Ajmal Ji sought Yogiraj, a devotee of Maa Kali who possessed great power but was full of arrogance, to have a child.

Yogiraj mocked Ajmal Ji's belief in Lord Dwarkadheesh, insulting him by saying, "Don't you boast so much about Dwarkadheesh? Go and pray to him for a son." Enraged by this insult, the king decided to go directly to Lord Dwarkadheesh.

Upon arriving in Dwarka, Ajmal Ji expressed his suffering before the idol of Lord Dwarkadheesh, but when there was no response, he erupted in intense anger. He cried out, "O Dwarkadheesh, what wrong have I committed that you inflict all this suffering upon me?"

The king threw the laddus he had brought as offerings at the idol's head, complaining to the priest that the deity had become mute, expressing his deep disappointment in the god.

To drive Ajmal Ji away, the priest lied that Dwarkadheesh lived under the sea. The priest said, "Dwarkadheesh lives at the bottom of the ocean."

Believing the words, Ajmal Ji jumped into the sea without hesitation and succeeded in meeting the deity. In the sea, he witnessed a wound on the deity's forehead caused by the laddu he had thrown.

Lord Dwarkadheesh said that he would take on Ajmal Ji's suffering of childlessness and the suffering of the people. The deity revealed, "I will descend into your home as the greatest god and a young son to remove the suffering of your people and the stigma of childlessness myself."

The deity foretold that as a sign of his reincarnation, kumkum footprints would appear in King Ajmal's courtyard, and water would turn into milk.

On the third day of the month of Bhadrapada, as promised by the deity, a star fell from the night sky, and the foretold miracle became reality. Kumkum footprints were clearly imprinted in the palace courtyard, and the water in the well turned into milk.

With these mysterious signs, Ramdev Ji descended and was born as the son of King Ajmal and his wife. Ramdev Ji grew up healthy under the boundless love and care of his parents.

At the age of five, Ramdev Ji saw someone riding a horse on the road and begged to ride one himself. The tailor, embezzling expensive cloth, hastily made a horse from old scraps of clothing and presented it to Ramdev Ji.

Ramdev Ji was delighted to see the cloth horse and mounted it. At that moment, it is said that "as soon as Ramdev Ji rode the horse, the cloth horse flew up into the sky." This was Ramdev Ji's first mysterious miracle.
