There
is mention of Jat people in Deva Samhitā[2] in the form of powerful
rulers over vast plains of Central Asia. When Pārvatī asks Shiva about
the origin of Jat people, their antiquity and characters of Jat people,
Shiva tells her like this in Sanskrit shloka-15 as under:
महाबला महावीर्या, महासत्य पराक्रमाः Mahābalā mahāvīryā, Mahāsatya parākramāḥ
सर्वाग्रे क्षत्रिया जट्टा देवकल्पा दृढ़-व्रता: Sarvāgre kshatriyā jattā Devakalpā dridh-vratāḥ || 15 ||
Meaning - "They are symbol of sacrifice, bravery and industry. They
are, like gods, firm of determination and of all the kshatriyā, the Jat
people are the prime rulers of the earth."
Shiva explains Parvati about the origin of Jat people in Shloka –16 of Deva samhita as under:
श्रृष्टेरादौ महामाये वीर भद्रस्य शक्तित: Shrishterādau mahāmāye Virabhadrasya shaktitaḥ
कन्यानां दक्षस्य गर्भे जाता जट्टा महेश्वरी Kanyānām Dakshasya garbhe jātā jatta maheshwarī. || 16 ||
Meaning – "In the beginning of the universe, with the personification
of the illusionary powers of Virabhadra and Daksha's daughter gani's
womb originated the caste of Jats."
Pārvatī asks, in the shloka-17
of 'Deva Samhitā' about the origin and exploits of the Jat people, whom
none else has so far revealed, Shiva tells Parvati that:
गर्व खर्चोत्र विग्राणां देवानां च महेश्वरी Garva kharchotra vigrānam devānām cha maheshwarī
विचित्रं विस्मयं सत्वं पौराण कै साङ्गीपितं Vichitram vismayam satvam Pauran kai sāngīpitam || 17 ||
Meaning - "The history of origin of Jat people is extremely wonderful
and their antiquity glorious. The Pundits of history did not record
their annals lest it should injure and impair their false pride and of
the vipras and gods. We describe that realistic history before you."
