Legend
In the kingdom of demigods lived a gardener who every morning cut the most beautiful flowers on the pond and brought them to his king so that he could present them to the supreme god. That gardener had a charming wife, whom he was madly in love with.One day, as usual, after cutting the flowers, the gardener decided to look home and spend a short time with his wife. But he forgot himself in her embrace and did not fulfill his duties. When the king, not seeing the flowers at the appointed time, found out why the gardener did not fulfill his duties, he cursed him to become a man and to become ill with white leprosy.At that very moment, the unfortunate man descended to the earth into a dense forest. He was tormented by hunger and thirst, he was tormented by the pain of a terrible disease, but he continued to worship the supreme deity. Due to the fact that he did not abandon his service, his mind remained pure.Fortunately, in the forest he met a holy sage. Having told the sage what had happened to him, he asked for advice on how he could get rid of his curse. In response, he heard a story about the glory of Yogini Ekadashi and how to observe it correctly. After the fast was observed according to all the rules, the gardener regained his divine essence and was able to return to his wife.
