Thousands of years ago in India there was a king named Chandradhar who was well known as Chand Saudagar. He was a great Devotee of Bhagwan Shankara. At that time Mansa the human daughter of Bhagwan Shankara, who was well known as Nag Rani (Queen of Serpents) came to know of the fact that she was the daughter of Bhagwan Shankara who was worshipped in all the corners of the world. It came into her mind that alnog with Shankara and Parvati, she should also be worshipped in this world. She made known her disire to her father Shakara told her, that worship was done throught herart and nont by force. However if Chandradhar agreed to worship her then whole world could worship her. Hearing this she went to Chandradhar and asked him to worship her. But Chandradhar declined to bow before any one except God Shankara and Goddess Parvati Mansa was enraged at this and desitoyed all the sis anus of Chandrad- har through her snakes. But Chandradhar remained adament. Mansa grew furious, but this time employed other means. She brought round to her great miracles. The Queen also entreated her husband to worship Mansa but to no avil. Mansa tried another trick. She blessed Rani Sanka with a son, so Lakshmendra the last son fo king Chandradhar was born, who became a young blooming Rajkumar. One day the Rajkumar went for a hunting and entered the borders of the Kindgom of Raja Shashidhar. By chance Rajas daughter Behula had also gone for sight seeing on the very day in the same jungle There she got separated from her friends and a lion attacked her. Rajkumar also reached that place and threw an arrow at the lion. But the lion escaped unhurt and a snake king fell a victim to that arrow. Behula thanked the strager and went on her way Soon the sepoys of Shashidhar arrived on the spot and arrested the Rajkumar for killing the snake king and presented him in the Kings Court. But by Behulas witness the Rajkumar was set free of the charge On knowing that the Rakumar was his friends son, Shashidhar froced him to stay at his palace. Soon the romance of first sight between Behula and Lakshmendra blossomed in the marriage of both. But nature willed otherwise. At the time of the birth of Lakshmendra the Royal astrologer ahd predicted that the Rajkumar would die of snake bite on the night of marriage Chandradhar therefore got a palace made of iron by an expert Engineer Vishwa Wardhaman in which even air could not go in. Lakshmendra and Behula were sent there to pass the blissful night. But Destiny could not be changed. Under threats form Mansa Vishwa Wardhman betrayed his master and left a little hole in the palace and a serpent entering through it killed Lakshmendra. Now Sati Behula takes the corpse of her husband with herself and goes on pilgrimage woving to bring back her husband alive within six months. She under- went thousands of troubles but never allowed her pati Vrata Dharam to be married by a single blot.
