History Of Narada Jayanti

Hindu mythology states that Narada Muni was cursed to be born on Earth after being a Hindu Gandharv in a former life. His father was a servant for a group of holy priests, and he was born into a humble family. The priests were quite impressed with Narada because, like his father, he served them with complete dedication and devotion. Narada's labours moved the priests, who bestowed upon him a blessing and gave him prasada from Lord Vishnu.

Narada became a devoted devotee of Lord Vishnu as a result of the priests' frequent storytelling of the Lord's exploits. Narada used to leave his home after his mother passed away and wander the forests in search of enlightenment. Narada is thought to have seen Lord Vishnu while meditating beneath a tree at one point. 

Lord Vishnu informed Narada, who was delighted, that he would not be able to assume his divine form once more until he died. Following this occurrence, Narada Muni committed his life to serving the Lord and rose to prominence as a prominent champion of Vishnu. With Lord Vishnu's favor, Narada's spiritual form was born again after his death.
