The Who did this fast first? Explain all this in detail. Answering Brihaspati’s questions, Brahmaji said- O Brihaspate! You have asked a very good question about the desire of the interest of beings. Blessed is the person who meditates the wishing mother Durga, Mahadev, Surya and Narayana.

If a fasting person cannot fast for the whole day, then take a meal and listen to the story of Navaratri fast with ten days of bondage. Hey Jupiter! I tell you the story of someone who has done this Mahavrat before.
Brahmaji said – In ancient times there lived an orphan Brahmin named Pithaat in Manohar Nagar, he was a devotee of Mother Durga. She was born a very beautiful girl named Sumati with full virtues.
The girl started playing with her friends in her father’s house in such a way that the moon’s art grows in the Shukla Paksha. Every day when her father used to worship Durga and do her home, she would be present there by the rules. One day Sumati did not attend the worship of Bhagwati. His father was furious after seeing such inadvertence of the daughter and he said to the daughter, Ari wicked daughter!
Today you did not worship Bhagwati, so I will marry you with some leprosy or poor person.
Sumati felt sad after listening to her father and said to her father – O father! I am your girl and subject to you in every way, do as you wish. Whether from the king, from the leprosy, from the poor, with whom I want to marry, I will do it, but the same is written in my destiny, because to act is subject to man, but to give fruit is under God.
Hearing the words spoken by the girl fearlessly, that Brahmin got angry and married his daughter with a leprosy and became very angry and said to the daughter – O daughter! Enjoy the fruits of your karma, see what you do by relying on luck? Hearing such bitter words of father, Sumati started thinking in her mind – Ah!
I have a great misfortune that got me such a husband. Thinking of her sorrow in this way, the girl went to the forest with her husband and spent that night with great grief in that fearless deserted forest.
Seeing such a condition of that poor girl, Goddess Bhagwati appeared with the influence of the former virtue and said to Sumati – O Deen Brahmin!
I am happy with you, you can ask for boon whatever you want. Hearing this promise of Bhagwati Durga, the brahmini said – Who are you, tell me all that? Hearing such a statement from a Brahmin, Devi said that I am Adi Shakti Bhagwati and I am theology and Saraswati. When happy, I remove the sorrow of beings and provide them happiness. Hey Brahmin! I am pleased with the virtue of your former birth on you.
Listen to the story of your past life, listen! You were a woman of Nishad in a previous life and was very compassionate. One day your husband Nishad committed theft. Because of stealing, both of you were catch by soldiers and imprisoned in jail.
They did not even give food to you and your husband. Thus, during the days of Navratri, you neither ate or drank anything, thus Navratri fasted for nine days. Hey Brahmin! The fast that happened in those days, pleased with the effect of this fast, I give you the desired groom, ask for whatever you wish.
Thus the Brahmini heard the words of Durga, if you are happy with me then O Durga. I bow to you and please remove my husband’s leprosy. The Goddess says Offer a day’s virtue for fasting the husband’s leprosy on the fast that you had fasted in those days, your husband will cure by the effect of that virtue.
Thus the Brahmini was pleased to hear the words of the goddess and when she says such a word to Aastastu (OK) with a desire to cure her husband, then her husband’s body became devoid of leprosy due to the grace of Bhagwati Durga.
Seeing the Brahmin husband, she started praising the Goddess – O Durga! You are the mother of the world, the one who removes misfortune, the one who endures the suffering of the three worlds, the one who removes all sorrows, the patient who is sick, the one who gives a desired blessing and the one who destroys the wicked.
Hey Ambe! My father abused me without marrying a man of leprosy. Disgusted with my father in a deserted forest, you have saved me from this calamity, O Goddess. Greet you protect me.
The goddess was very please to hear such praise of that Brahmin and said to the Brahmin – O Brahmin! A very intelligent, wealthy, famous son name Tere Udalaya will be born soon. After giving such a gift, the goddess again told the Brahmin that she should ask for whatever she wants.
Sumati said that O Goddess Durga! If you are happy with me, please tell me in detail the method of fasting for Navratri.
Hearing the words of Brahmani, Mother Durga said – O Brahmini! I tell you the method of fasting to remove all sins Navratri fast – from the Pratipada of Shukla Paksha of Chaitra month to fast for nine days, if you cannot fast for a day, then take a meal.
