Chhath Puja Katha

A long year ago, there was a king named, Priyabrat and his wife Malini.They were living very happily but there was a big unhappiness in their life as they have no child.They decided to make a big Yagya by the help of Maharishi Kashyap in order to be blessed with a child.His wife became pregnant because of the effect of Yagya.But she had given birth to a dead child after nine month.King was very sad and decided to suicide.Suddenly, there came a Goddess in front of him while suicide.Goddess said that, I am a Goddess Khashti, if someone would offer puja to me with pure mind and soul, he would definately get a child.The king, priyabrat did the same and blessed with a very beautiful and cute child.Since then, people started celebrating the chhath puja.
