पुरा एकस्मिन् वृक्षे एका चटका प्रतिवसति स्म। कालेन तस्याः सन्ततिः जाता। एकदा कश्चित् प्रमत्तः गजः तस्य वृक्षस्य अधः आगत्य तस्य शाखां शुण्डेन अत्रोटयत्। चटकायाः नीडं भुवि अपतत्। तेन अण्डानि विशीर्णानि। अथ सा चटका व्यलपत्। तस्याः विलापं श्रुत्वा 'भद्रे, किमर्थ काष्ठकूटः नाम खगः दुःखेन ताम् अपृच्छत् विलपसि ?' इति ।

Question 3:
मेघालय - यानी बादलों का धर । तीन पर्वतयी अंचलों में बँटा हुआ है मेघालय - खासी, गारो और जयंतिया पर्वत । हर अंचल की अपनी अलग संस्कृति है। हर कहीं पारिवारिक व्यवस्था मातृसत्तात्मक है। तमाम दुकानों पर स्त्रियाँ सौदा बेचती और बेहिचक बतियाती दिखाई देती हैं। शायद कमोबेश यह स्थिति पूर्वोत्तर के अन्य राज्यों में भी है, भले ही वहाँ मातृसत्तात्मक परिवार व्यवस्था न हो। भारत में जहाँ भी जाइए, लोग सब जगह एक-से ही हैं। हाँ, बोली, पहनावे, नाक-नक्श में थोड़ा अंतर है। यह स्वाभाविक ही है। भौगोलिक स्थितियाँ ही ऐसा अंतर कर देती हैं। यहाँ के रंगारंग नृत्यों का अपना सौंदर्य है। नृत्य और उत्सव के जरिए शांति और संपन्नता की कामना की जाती है, अच्छी फसल के लिए ईश्वर को धन्यवाद दिया जाता है। उत्तर, दक्षिण और पूर्व भारत के उत्सवों में भी तो यही भावना निहित है । खासियों के नोंगक्रेम नृत्य को देखने के बाद माँसमाई गाँव की गुफाओं की ओर प्रस्थान किया।
मातृसत्तात्मक परिवार व्यवस्था से क्या तात्पर्य है?
