A Baker From Goa Summary In Hindi
यह एक पारंपरिक गोवा के गांव के ब्रेड पाव बनाने वाले का शब्द चित्र है जिसका अभी उसके समाज में महत्वपूर्ण स्थान है हमारे बुजुर्ग अपने पुरानी अच्छे पुर्तगाली तीनों की पुर्तगालियों की और उनके मशहूर पांव के टुकड़ों की प्रशंसा से चर्चा करते हुए सुनाई पड़ते हैं उन पाव टुकड़ों को खाने वाले चाहे अब न रहे हो किंतु वह बनाने वाले अभी भी वहां हैं हमारे बीच अब भी सामान मिलाने वाले सांचे में डालने वाले और टुकड़ों को पकाने वाले मौजूद हैं भट्टी की आग अब तक बुझी नहीं है पारंपरिक पाव बनाने वालों की लट्ठों कि थब थब और छनछन आहट जो कि सुबह उनके आगमन का संकेत देती थी अब भी कई स्थानों पर सुनी जा सकती है शायद पिता जीवित नहीं है किंतु बेटा अब भी परिवार की धंधे को आगे बढ़ा रहा है इन पाव बनाने वालों को आज भी गोवा में पैडर नाम से जाना जाता है।
गोवा में हमारी बचपन में पाव बनाने वाला हमारा दोस्त साथी और मार्गदर्शक होता था वह दिन में कम से कम 2 बार आया करता था एक बार सुबह जब वह अपनी बेटी टोकरी लेकर निकलता और फिर दोबारा जब शाम को वह अपनी बड़ी सी टोकरी खाली करके वापस आता उसके बांस की छन-छन आती हुई अब था अब हमें नींद से उठा देती और हम उससे मिलने और उसका सत्कार करने भागती ऐसा क्यों था क्या ऐसा पांव के टुकड़े के प्रेम के कारण था बिल्कुल नहीं पाऊं के टुकड़े तो किसी पास्किन या वास्त इन नामक घर की नौकरानी द्वारा खरीदी जाती थी हम तो जो चाहते थे वह होती थी ब्रेड रोटी बैंगल्स जो हम बहुत ध्यान पूर्वक चुनते थे कभी-कभी वह विशेष प्रकार से बनी मीठी डबल रोटी होती थी।
पाव वाला अपने विशेष बने पांच की जंग जंग आवाज के साथ दृष्टि पटल पर संगीत के साथ प्रवेश करता था एक हाथ उसकी सिर की कटोरी को सहारा दे रहा था और दूसरा बांस को फर्श पर बजा रहा था वह घर की महिला का नमस्ते से सत्कार करता और फिर अपनी टोकरी सीधे खड़े बांस पर टिका देता हम बच्चों को एक हल्की डांट के साथ एक और धकेल दिया जाता और घर के नौकर को पाव दे दे जाती लेकिन हम भी नहीं मानती थी हम एक बेंच या मुंडेर पर चढ़ जाती और टोकरी में किसी प्रकार झांकती मुझे अभी भी उन पाव की अलग सी मीठी खुशबू याद है पाव के टुकड़े बड़ों के लिए और छल्ले बच्चों के लिए उस समय हम अपने दांत मांजने और मौत होने तक की परवाह नहीं करते थे और करते भी क्यों कौन आम के पत्तों को दांतो की ब्रश बनाने के लिए तोड़ने की परेशानी मोहल्ले शेर ने कभी अपने दांत साफ नहीं किए गरम चाय आखिरकार सब कुछ अच्छी तरह से दो और साफ कर देगी।
विवाह के उपहार मीठी डबल रोटी जिसे बोल सकते हैं कि बिना अर्थहीन है उसी प्रकार कोई भी प्रति भोज याद दावत डबल रोटी के बिना अपना मजा खो देती है घर की महिला को अपनी बेटी की सगाई के अवसर पर सैंडविच बनाना जरूरी होता है कि एक और बोलिन्हास क्रिसमस और दूसरे प्रभु पर जरूरी है इस कारण एक गांव में पाव बनाने वाले की भट्टी का होना अति अनिवार्य है एक पाव बनाने वाला यह डबल रोटी बेचने वाला उन दिनों कुछ अलग ढंग की वेशभूषा धारण करते थे जिसे कब आए कहते थे वह एक ही टुकड़े की लंबी फ्रॉक होती थी जो घुटने तक लंबी होती थी अपने बचपन में हम पाव बनाने वालों को एक कमीज और ऐसी पेंट पहने हुए देखते थे जो कि पतलून की पूरी लंबाई से छोटी और लेकर से लंबी होती थी आज भी यदि कोई ऐसा निकर पहने जो कि को टर्न तक लंबा हो तो उसे कहा जाता है कि वह पेडर की तरह तैयार हुआ है।
पाव बनाने वाला अधिकांश अपने बिल माह के अंत में इकट्ठा करता था महीने का हिसाब किसी दीवार पर पेंसिल से अंकित किया जाता था पुराने दिनों में पाव बनाना लाभ का सौदा होता था पाव बनाने वाला और उसका परिवार कभी भूखा नहीं रहता था वह उसका परिवार और उसके नौकर सदैव प्रसन्न और संपन्न नजर आते थे उनका गतराया हुआ शरीर इस बात का खुला प्रमाण था आज भी किसी व्यक्ति की कटहल जैसी शारीरिक छवि की आसानी से पाव बनाने वाली से तुलना की जाती है।
