Anant Chaturdashi 2025: Story
There was a Brahmin named Sumant who had a daughter named Sushila, according to scripture. The sage Kaundinya was her spouse. After bringing Sushila to his house, Sage Kaundinya went to offer evening prayers by the river's edge. Sushila noticed that many women were praying and worshiping at the same time. She inquired of the women who they were praying for. The lady explained to her the significance of fasting for the day and worshiping Lord Anant. Sushila knotted a sacred thread with fourteen knots on her arm because she wanted to follow the Anant Chaturdashi fast.
The thread was tied on Sushila's arm, and Kaundinya questioned her about it. She explained to him how to worship Lord Anant. He pulled the sacred thread and threw it into the fire out of rage. After he disgraced Lord Anant, he began to lose all of his fortune. Sage later acknowledged his mistake and felt guilt for what he had done. He made the decision to undergo a rigorous penance till Lord Ananta appeared in front of him in order to forgive him for his transgressions. Despite making every effort and going through a lot of hardship, Kaundinya was unable to see the divinity.
He made the decision to end his life after realizing that all of his efforts were in futile. However, just as he was about to hang himself, Lord Vishnu intervened to save him. He then appeared before Kaundinya and counseled him to keep a fast on Anant Chaturdashi and worship Lord Anant for 14 years in order to regain his lost wealth. With the greatest sincerity, Kaundinya made a commitment and began keeping an Anant Chaturdashi fast for 14 years in a row. Devotees who fast and pray to Lord Vishnu on Anant Chaturdashi are said to be blessed with the fulfillment of their wishes.
