Mahadev Nandi Rescued – Fractured Leg, Dallupura, Delhi
On the auspicious day of MahaShivaratri 2021, GauNandiSewa rescued a Mahadev Nandi baba from Dallupura, Delhi with a fractured leg from a hit-and-run accident. A lightweight fiberglass cast was applied.
A Mantra for Healing, on Mahadev's Own Night
Among the oldest verses in the Rigveda is one addressed directly to Tryambaka — the three-eyed one, Shiva himself:
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् ।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात् ॥
Om Tryambakam Yajāmahe Sugandhiṁ Puṣṭi-vardhanam, Urvārukamiva Bandhanān Mṛtyor Mukṣīya Mā'mṛtāt
Known as the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, it asks Shiva to loosen us from suffering the way a ripe cucumber falls freely from its vine — a verse chanted above all others for healing and protection from harm. It felt fitting, then, that the request GauNandiSewa received from Dallupura, Delhi arrived on MahaShivaratri itself, the most sacred night of the year dedicated to Mahadev — the very day his own devoted Nandi needed exactly the kind of healing this ancient mantra calls for.
A Fracture From a Hit-and-Run
The Mahadev Nandi baba had been struck in a hit-and-run accident, left with a fractured leg and no way to seek help on his own. On a night meant for devotion and vigil in Shiva's honor, he instead spent it in pain, waiting for someone to notice.
Rescued and Treated
Dr. Naresh Sharma ji's Kamdhenu ambulance rescued him from Dallupura and brought him home to GauNandiSewa. On arrival, complete treatment was given, and a lightweight fiberglass plaster cast was applied over the fractured leg — sturdy enough to hold the bone in place while being gentle enough not to burden him further as he heals.
Healing, as the Mantra Asks
He remains under GauNandiSewa's care as his leg heals inside its cast. The Mahamrityunjaya Mantra doesn't promise instant release — it asks for the same slow, natural loosening a ripe fruit undergoes falling from its vine. That's exactly the pace his recovery is taking now, one day of healing at a time, on the very night his own god is honored for making it possible.
