Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
Vaikundha
Chathurdashi commemorates Lord Vishnu’s worship of Lord Shiva. The legend has that Lord Vishnu visited the
most sacred land on the Earth Varnasi, had a desire to worship Lord Shiva with
1001 lotus flowers. Lord Vishnu had
ablutions in Manikarnika Theertham and initiated the worship. Lord
Shiva wanted to test the profundity of Lord Vishnu’s devotion and hid one of
the flowers from the cluster. Lord
Vishnu realized the missing of one flower from the bunch and decided to resume
the worship by offering one of his lotus eyes to Lord. Lord
Vishnu plucked one of his eyes and offered to Linga in place of lotus flower. Lord Shiva was overwhelmed at the devotion
and dedication of Lord Vishnu and appeared before him. Further, Lord Shiva affirmed that Lord Vishnu
as the supreme devotee of Lord Shiva and offered him the fierce weapon
Sudharshana Chakra.
Whoever worships Lord Shiva and
Lord Vishnu on this day would be blessed with the highest of pieties.
Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
Jai Sriman Narayana !!
