Narada Jayanti Story
Narada Jayanti is often related to a legend following the birth of Narada. In his previous birth, Narada was a Gandharva (heavenly being) who was cursed to transform into an earthling. Thus, he was born to a maid who worked in the household of Vedic scholarly saints, who devoted their day in the devotion of Lord Vishnu. Narada often partook Prasad from them and he along with his mother served the saints to the extent of winning spiritual favors through their grace and compassion.Narada, who attentively heard their discourses got inspired to be a passionate devotee of Lord Vishnu. But after his mother’s death, he was heart broken and retreated towards the forest and started meditating with prayers he had learnt from the saints. Lord Vishnu was appeased with his devotion and appeared before him. But the Lord told him that he would only like to see him in his Divine form after his death. Thus, it became the dormant desire of a young Narada to be with the Lord.He continued with his austerities in earthly form until his death, after which he received his spiritual form, the form we know about him today.
