In Dwapar Yuga, there was a kingdom named Mahishmati, whose reins were in the hands of King Mahajit. King Mahajit was full of wealth, prosperity and property but he was always worried due to being childless. The king tried many ways to get a son, but all his efforts were futile. King Mahajit was moving towards old age. The king took good care of all the creatures along with his subjects. He was always sad about why he was childless despite making efforts.
The king was deprived of the happiness of having children
One day the king called all the sages, saints and scholars of his kingdom and asked them about the ways to have children. Listening to the king, everyone said, ‘O king, in your previous life, you did not allow a cow to drink water from your pond on Ekadashi. Due to which the cow cursed you to not have children, that is why you are deprived of the happiness of having children.
Putrada Ekadashi fast fills the empty lap
Lomesh Rishi said that if King Mahajit observes fast and night vigil on Putrada Ekadashi of Shukla Paksha of Shravan month, he will get a son, soon the house will be filled with the laughter of a child. Also, all the troubles of the king will be destroyed. The king observed fast and worship of Sawan Putrada Ekadashi according to the rules, due to the effect of this virtue, the queen conceived and after nine months gave birth to a very bright son.
