STORY OF ANANT CHATURDASHI:
In the Satyuga there was a sage named Sumantu. His daughter Sheela was extremely gentle as per her name. Sumantu Muni married that girl to Kaundinya Muni. Kaundinya Muni was returning home from her in-laws house with her wife Sheela, while on the way, some women were seen worshiping the eternal God on the banks of the river.
Knowing the importance of the eternal fast, Sheela worshiped the infinite God with those women and tied the eternal sutra. As a result, in a few days his house was full of money.
Namaste Dev Devesh Namaste Dharanidhar.
Namaste Sarvnagendra Namaste Purushottam.
नमस्ते देव देवेश नमस्ते धरणीधर।
नमस्ते सर्वनागेन्द्र नमस्ते पुरुषोत्तम।।
