Mangala Gauri Katha or Story

Long ago there was a wealthy merchant named Dharampal who had a beautiful wife. But the void of not having children made them sad. By performing several poojas they received God’s grace as their son was born. However, he was cursed to die from snakebite before he reached the age of 16. Fortunately, he got married before turning 16 and was saved due to his wife’s mother who had performed rituals of Mangala Gauri Vrat. The girl’s mother was blessed with a daughter who could never be a widow. Hence, Dharampal’s son was blessed with a life of 100 years.
