Vrat Katha
Once there lived a humble and learned brahmin Sumedha with his wife Pavitra in a village named Kampilya. The couple was known for their kindness, generosity and humbleness. Though they had very little to survive, they always took proper care of those who visited their ashrama and took shelter. There were times when they had nothing to eat as they used to donate their grains and other things to people who visited them. One Sumedha thought of moving to a big city so that they could earn more money and serve people in a better manner. But his wife believed otherwise and asked Sumedha to quit the idea of relocating to a nearby city in order to earn money.
The couple continued to live in their ashrama in Kampilya. Once a great sage visited their ashrama and as usual the couple welcomed the sage with all they had. They ensured that the sage had no trouble while he lived at their place. Impressed by the couple's hospitality and generosity, the sage advised the couple to observe a fast on the ekadashi tithi of Krishna Paksha in the Adhik maas. The couples agreed to this and soon observed a fast with austerity, dedication and devotion. Pleased by their devotion and true intentions, Lord Vishnu blessed the couple with wealth, prosperity and long life. Soon, the couple's situation improved and they still continued to look after people with dedication and selfless love.
