SOLAH SOMVAAR vrat katha

16 Monday Fast Starts || THIRD CHAPTER ||

The queen walked and reached an oilman's house in the city. The oilman felt pity and asked the queen to stay in the house, but only then, due to the wrath of God Shiva, the oil-filled pots of oil started bursting one by one. Oilman immediately threw her out of the house, considering her to be a wretch.
The hungry-thirsty queen cursed her fate and proceeded from there. She felt very thirsty on the way. She descended the stairs to drink water in a lake (pond). As soon as she touched the water, insects and insects started swimming in it. She was in a bad condition due to thirst. To avoid the scorching sun, the queen sat under a dense tree and in a blink of an eye, all the leaves of that tree were shattered.
When the queen sat under another tree, the leaves of that tree also fell. When the queen reached the third tree, she fell down. Nearby some shepherds were grazing their cows.
