Like Patanjali, Bhartrhari also emphasizes ‘Cosmic Consciousness’ (samvit) as the essence of the reality which enables the inner consciousness of the soul to understand it, in the form of word and language.
According to Bhartrhari, “The speech (or word) exists within and outside all living beings in the form of consciousness (Caitanya). Sabda is another form of ‘caitanya’ or consciousness.
For Bhartrhari and other grammarians, Sabdas are the sole guide to the objects. All classes of things depend on sabda, Vaidik or secular; and all the disciplines of knowledge depend on Vyakarana (grammar). Without grammar, the truth cannot be apprehended.
In a nut shell, GRAMMAR is the gateway and royal road to liberation.

The name of Raja Bhartrihari (or Bhartri) is widely known in India, as the name of the king who has renounced his throne, to become an ascetic. The dramatic story of his renunciation traditionally was one of the favorite themes of the ballads sung by the wondering minstrels and performed by the folk theaters all over India.
Prior to his renunciation, he was the king of the Malva Kingdom with its capital in Avantikā (modern Ujjain). He had younger brother Vikramaditya (Chandragupta second), who ruled after he renounced his trone since 1076 till 1126? However, there were two kings known as Vikramāditya in the Indian history, which were separated from each other by the period of one thousand years, one was legendary king Vikramāditya, by whom the Vikram Samwat (the calendar established from the time of his reign) was stared, and other known as Chandragupta second.

We have established there were 2 Vikramaditya who were separated by about a thousand years which is unkown to Captain Ajit Vadakayil and his false history narrative.
Another thing is unknown to him is that Guru Nanak Dev Ji meeting Barthari twice once in Ujjain in around 1511 on his second journey and another time in Punjab at later time on his 5th journey.
Barthari Yogi's name is mentioned in Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji 5 times. In my opinion he is the most neglected person by Sikhs as he is not revered as much as even though his name appears in Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji 5 times.
From Girnar hill Guru Nanak Dev Ji travelled through Ahmedabad to Ujjain. Famous King Bikramajit
was the ruler of this place. His brother
Bharthari Hari had renounced the throne and home and became an ascetic. His cave
in Ujjain is famous even today. Guru Ji went and
sat near the tree. The Hindu pilgrims of
all traditions came to pay obeisance at the cave of Bharthari Hari. Near this place
resided Bharthari yogi. At the
time Guru Nanak Dev Ji was performing kirtan (singing
hymns). The yogi was highly impressed. He asked Guru Ji as to how
many yogis who come over here would achieve salvation? In reply,
Guru Ji recited the following hymn recorded on
page 223 of Shri Guru Granth Sahib:-
“Those who live a spiritual lifestyle - they alone are true. What
can the false know about the secrets of liberation? Those who contemplate the
Way are Yogis. They conquer the five thieves, and enshrine the True Lord in the
heart. Those who enshrine the True Lord deep within, Realize the value of the
Way of Yoga. The sun and the moon are one and the same for them, as are
household and wilderness. The karma of their daily practice is to praise the
Lord. They beg for the alms of
the one and only Shabad. They remain awake and aware in spiritual wisdom and
meditation, and the true way of life. They remain absorbed in the fear of God;
they never leave it. Who can estimate their value? They remain lovingly absorbed
in the Lord. The Lord unites them with Himself, dispelling their doubts. By
Guru's Grace, the supreme status is obtained. In the Guru's service is
reflection upon the Shabad. Subduing ego, practice pure actions. Chanting,
meditation, austere self-discipline and the reading of the Puraanas, Says
Nanak, are contained in surrender to the Unlimited Lord.”
After listening to this
hymn, many misgivings in Bharthari yogi’s mind got cleared. He discussed many subjects
with Guru Ji and thus got enlightened about the significance of meditating on the holy word.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji stayed with
Bharthari yogi for some time. One day
Bharthari yogi asked Guru Ji, “We live among
the trees and woods. We are constantly in fear. There are wild animals who can attack. What kind of protection
can we offer you. We are
afraid that we have not been able to look after
and serve you well. You do not eat much
either, we cannot provide you food” On
hearing this, Guru Ji recited the following hymn recorded on page
223-224 of Shri Guru Granth Sahib:-
“To
practice forgiveness is the true fast, good conduct and contentment. Disease
does not afflict me, nor does the pain of death. I am liberated, and absorbed
into God, who has no form or feature. What fear does the Yogi have? The Lord is
among the trees and the plants, within the household and outside as well. The
Yogis meditate on the Fearless, Immaculate Lord. Night and day, they remain
awake and aware, embracing love for the True Lord. Those Yogis are pleasing to
my mind. The trap of death is burnt by the Fire of God. Old age, death and
pride are conquered. They swim across, and save their ancestors as well. Those
who remain immersed in the Fear of God become fearless. They become just like
the One they serve. The Name makes a man pure and fearless. It makes the master less become the master of all. I am a
sacrifice to him. Such a
person is not reincarnated again; he sings the Glories of God. Inwardly and
outwardly, he knows the One Lord; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, he
realizes himself. He bears the Banner and Insignia of the True Shabad in the
Lord's Court. He does not come or go in reincarnation, and his hopes are
subdued. Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, his heart-lotus blossoms forth.
Whoever is seen, is driven by hope and despair, by sexual desire, anger,
corruption, hunger and thirst. O Nanak, those detached recluses who meet the
Lord are so very rare.”
Meaning one who has a fear of God
does not fear anything else.
A Gurdwara known as 'Gurdwara Guru Nanak Ghat' commemorating Guru Nanak's visit. It is on the bank (Ghat) of southern bank of Shipra River opposite the famous Mahakal mandir and close to Datt Akhara.
Second time after discourse with the Yogi’s at
fair of Achal Batala,
Guru Nanak Dev Ji went further in to Punjab to preach his message. Guru Ji went to Takhtapura in
the Moga
district. The place is known as Nanaksar
Sahib. Guru Nanak Dev ji had
discoursed with a few siddhayogis who
lived on a nearby mound. At that time Raja Bharthari (Raja
of Ujjain) was
also living here, serving the sidhs. If
you remember, Guru Ji had met him in Gujrat earlier. He was told that he had to marry the Rajkumari of Junagarh, and
for that he had only eight peher's left
(24 hours). And if
Raja failed to reach there, she will die. Raja Bharthari requested
sidhs to
help him reaching there, but sidhs
refused because they were not able to do so in such a short time. Then on
Raja's request Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji took
him
to Junagarh
in
one peher (3 hrs) and
got him married with Rajkumari. Also Guru Ji brought
him back here and advised him to stay there. Guru Ji recited the following hymn recorded on page 412 of Shri Guru Granth Sahib:-
"Inwardly and outwardly, there is none other than Him. Whatever pleases Him, comes to pass. Listen, O Bharthari Yogi - Nanak speaks after deliberation; The Immaculate Name is my only Support."
A Gurdwara Sahib is present in Takhtupura which commemorates the incident. There is place of Bharthari too there. The Oldest Manuscript called Bhai Bala Janamsakhi also mentioned the said incident in detail.
Other places where Barthar Yogi is mentioned is on:
page 360 of Shri Guru Granth Sahib:
"My arm-rest is to see the Lord's Light in all, although their forms and colors are so numerous. Says Nanak, listen, O Bharthari Yogi: love only the Supreme Lord God."
"Imbued with the Lord's Praises, one is forever a Bairaagee, a renunciate, and one's life is not lost in the gamble. Says Nanak, listen, O Bharthari Yogi: drink in the intoxicating nectar of the Lord."
page 953 of Shri Guru Granth Sahib:
"He alone is a Bairaagi, who turns himself toward God. In the Tenth Gate, the sky of the mind, he erects his pillar. Night and day, he remains in deep inner meditation. Such a Bairaagi is just like the True Lord. Says Bhart'har, God is the embodiment of Truth; The supreme essence of reality has no shape or form."
page 1390 of Shri Guru Granth Sahib:
"Bali the king, dwelling in the seventh underworld, sings His Praises. Bhart'har, abiding forever with Gorakh, his guru, sings His Praises. Doorbaasaa, King Puro and Angra sing the Praises of Guru Nanak. Says KAL the poet, the Sublime Praises of Guru Nanak intuitively permeate each and every heart."
