It is believed that Lord Krishna narrated the legend of this celebration to the Pandava King Yudhishthira in the Brahmanda Purana. The legend says that a saintly king called Vaikhanasa ruled the city of Champakanagar with compassion and love and revered Lord Vishnu diligently. He once dreamt that his father was being tormented in hell and was troubled by this dream. The king sought the council to find out why his father was suffering and how he could attain moksha.
When he approached the sage of the mountain, he asked the king to observe a stringent fast of Mokshada Ekadashi. His religious merit pleased the gods who opened the gates of heaven and took his father in.
