Once upon a time there was a king called Vijaydhar. His kingdom was Chandrapur. He was married to some young, beautiful & well cultured girls.The chief consorts Vidyadhari, Chandramukhi & others being well cultured, beautiful and young, were immensely dear to the king. But he also had one simple queen.
She was Sumati. The king wasn't biased although, but the love of the king for this queen was not visible. It was making Sumati miserable.
She was Sumati. The king wasn't biased although, but the love of the king for this queen was not visible. It was making Sumati miserable.
Sumati being miserable was deeply mulling over this issue. In the mean time a saint happened to be there. After hearing for the alms, she honoured the saint with whatever he desired for. She also requested the saint to bless her & to suggest some way out to have the love and affection of her husband. She also uttered one line from the epic Ramayana: 'Pati viyog sam koi dukh nahin'. This means there is no other misery than not being dear to the husband. Hearing like this from the queen, the saint asked her not being affectionate to any thing but to her husband. The saint further asked her not being attached to any kind of ornaments & eatables, but to keep thinking about her husband day & night. He said that it is not important being beautiful and learned to get the love of husband, but what is essential is to have true love and deep faith in him. By
saying so he finished his discourse. The queen Sumati followed the words of the saint and started behaving that way. After some time a war was started between king Vijaydhar & the Russian king. Vijaydhar emerged victorious. Russian capital was declared his capital & was handed over to one of his representatives. King Vijaydhar being happy on his victory wrote letters to his queens asking if they wanted to have anything from
Russia, because lots of beautiful varieties of clothes, ornaments and other favourites were available there in Russia. The king also promised to present, anything they would demand. Being happy with this the wives wrote about their favourites to the king. But when it came to Sumati, she happily drew a simple straight line on the paper, because she was not very learned, but had a great amount of devotion for the king.
When the reader started narrating all the letters to Vijaydhar, he got amazed seeing the letter of Sumati. At this the king asked the reader to explain the letter of Sumati.The reader told the king that Sumati had simply drew one straight line on the paper expressing that she had only wished to get him & his affection. The
king became very happy and instructed the minister to leave Russia for their own kingdom.
When Vijaydhar reached his kingdom, he presented the chief consorts with whatever they had wished for. When it came to Sumati, the king decided to be with her as this is what she had wished for. When the chief consorts came to know about this decision of the king, they regretted and requested the king to reconsider his decision. But the king tried to console them. He also told them to be satisfied with whatever they had wished for. He further told them that they did not wish for him & Sumati had wished only for him, so everybody needed to be happy with whatever they had wished for. Later Vijaydhar honoured his words and remained with Sumati. Thus whatever the devotees wish for, they are blessed with the same. If someone seeks worldly pleasure, he gets the way the chief consorts got and if someone seeks the union with the God, he gets the way Sumati got. That's why every one must try and seek the union with the God.
