Kabiraj Haracharan Sen (18 August 1844 - 19 June 1917) was born in Bangladesh. He was born in a village named Bidga, in Bikrampur, Dhaka. He was the last surviving disciple of Gangadgar Sen Roy in Baharampur, Murshidabad.[1]
Early Life
[edit]Kabiraj Haracharan Sen was born on 18 August 1844 in Bangladesh. He was born in a village named Bidga, in Bikrampur, Dhaka. His father's name was Abhoychandra Sen. He got married to 10 year old Nityatara Devi, daughter of Bisweswar Dasgupta. They had five sons and two daughters together.[1]
Nityatara Devi was born in Bharakar in Bikrampur, Dhaka. Their residence was famously known as Daroga Bari or residence of police inspector. One of the most famous personality from this family was Indian freedom fighter Chittaranjan Das, popularly called as Desbandhu.[2] Another famous personality was Pradosh Dasgupta, famous Bengali scluptor.
Education
[edit]He was trained in Sanskrit and Ayurved under the guidance of Gangadhar Sen Roy, doctor of Shri Ramkrishna Paramhangsa. He was also known as Rishi Gangadhar due to his excellence in this field. He was also the author of various famous books at that time named Lokalokpurushiyo, Durgabodhkabyo etc. He received title Kaviraj in recognition of his magnanimous work in ayurved. Later he travelled to Syedabad in Murshidabad and got appointed as the chief doctor of Maharani Swarnamoyee.[3] He brought his disciple, young Haracharan, with him to Murshidabad.
Career
[edit]From the diary of Hiranbala Sen, his grand-daughter, famous Indian freedom fighter in Bikrampur,[4] it was known that in Cossimbazar Raj, Maharani Swarnamoyee while on throne, tried to remove Manindra Sen from being the heir of the estate. At that time, young Manindra Nandi was orphan after losing both his parents in childhood. There was a major conflict within the royal family regarding the next heir to the throne. With the help and wisdom of Kabiraj Haracharan Sen, eventually Maharaja Sir Manindra Chandra Nandi became the new heir to the throne in 1897 after the death of Maharani Swarnamoyee.
It was also known from sources that maharaja used to have Haracharan by his side while chairing the daily courtroom proceedings and used to take regular advise on various matters. Thus he became a prominent face in that age of Bengali zamindari royal families.
He was once summoned by the Pakur estate, Maheshpur Raj in Jharkhand, India. He treated the king and queen of Pakur for their ongoing subfertility. After having a child they gifted gold bangles to Haranath's wife. Thus his fame as a doctor spread in different parts of Bengal.
He was a supporter of using both western and Indian ayurvedic medical expertise side by side to achieve the best outcome in medical field. For example in 1881, it was found that he used to treat venereal diseases and sexually transmitted infections with both western as well as Ayurvedic prescriptions.[5]
Death
