Sakat Chauth Vrat Katha

Once Ganesha, in child form, set out to roam the earth with some rice and a spoonful of milk. He was roaming around the earth asking everyone to make his kheer but no one paid attention to his words. Then a poor old lady heard his voice and agreed to make his kheer. When the old lady agreed, Ganeshji asked her to make kheer in the biggest vessel of the house. Considering Ganesh ji to be a child's play, the old lady placed the biggest pot in the house on the stove.

When Lord Ganesha put a handful of rice and milk in the pot, it was completely filled. Ganeshji said to the old lady that Amma, when the kheer is ready, call me. After this, the daughter-in-law of the old lady's son secretly stole a bowl of kheer from that pan and kept the other bowl hidden. After the kheer was ready, the old lady called out to Lord Ganesha. After this Ganesh ji reached there and said that I have already eaten the kheer. The old lady asked, when did you eat when you went out? Ganesh ji said when your daughter-in-law ate. When the old lady came to know about this, she apologized to Lord Ganesha.

After this, the old lady asked Ganesh ji what to do with the remaining kheer, then Ganesh ji said that distribute it in the city and bury whatever is left in the ground of his house. Saying this, Ganesh ji left from there. The next day when the old woman woke up, she saw that her hut had turned into a palace and the kheer pots were filled with gold and jewels. By the grace of Lord Ganesha, the poor old lady's house was filled with wealth.
