Consumption of Til or sesame seeds, charity of sesame seeds or even bathing with water having some sesame seeds in it, is considered highly auspicious. You will come to know about the significance of sesame seeds or Til and the story of Shattila Ekadashi by reading ahead. So, read on and know more about Shattila Ekadasi, before observing Shattila Ekadasi Vrat in 2015.
Legend Of Shattila Ekadashi :
As per the legend of Shattila Ekadasi, once there was an old lady, who had lots of wealth and money. She used to perform a lot of charity for the poor, in form of offerings like clothes, jewelry, and other precious items. But she never offered them food or grains.
Once, Lord Krishna converted himself in the form of a poor beggar and asked that rich lady for food. On the continuous demand for food, the lady became angry and she put a ball of clay in his pot. Beggar blessed her and left.
When she entered into her house, she saw that every food item is slowly changing into clay. She was having lots of wealth and money, but all was a complete waste because she was not able to eat anything. She was getting weaker and weaker, day by day. Then, she prayed to Lord Krishna for help.
Lord Krishna came into her dreams and reminded her the incident of the beggar. He also told her that by observing the fast of Shattila Ekadasi and offering food to the poor on that day, will help her in removing all her sins.
She observed the fast of Shattila Ekadashi and offered Til and food to the poor, after which everything returned to normal.
