Story of Pausha Putrada Ekadashi

Once upon a time, King Suketu ruled Bhadravathi city. His wife’s name was Shaivya. They had no offspring and were unhappy. One day, they handed over their kingdom to their minister (Mantri) and went to the forest. They thought to commit suicide. But then the King realized that there is no bigger sin than suicide. Then, they heard the voices reciting Vedas and moved in that direction. When they reached there, they met hermits (Rishi), who told them the importance of Pausha Putrada Ekadashi. After that, both of them performed the fast of this Ekadashi, as a result of which they were blessed with a child. Since then, the value of Pausha Putrada Ekadashi kept on increasing. So, those couples who are childless must perform the fast of Pausha Putrada Ekadashi devotedly to get the blessings of the God in the form of a child.
