Long ago, in a satyuga, there lived a Dharmik king named Indradyumna. He was a devout Bhakt of Shri Vishnu and spent much of his time in meditation and prayer.
His unwavering focus on his devotion made him neglect worldly interactions.
One day, while the king was deeply absorbed in meditation, the Sage Agastya visited his court.

One day, while the king was deeply absorbed in meditation, the Sage Agastya visited his court.
The king, lost in his prayers, failed to notice or greet the sage. Feeling insulted by the apparent disregard, Sage Agastya grew angry and cursed him:
O King, your pride in your devotion has made you unmindful of others. In your next life, you shall become an elephant, unaware of your spiritual wisdom!”
Indradyumna, instead of arguing humbly accepted the curse, trusting that it was part of the divine will.

Indradyumna, instead of arguing humbly accepted the curse, trusting that it was part of the divine will.
In his next birth, King Indradyumna was reborn as Gajendra, a magnificent elephant.
He became the leader of a large herd and lived on the beautiful Trikuta Mountain.
Gajendra ruled the forest with strength and grace, leading his herd to abundant food and water.

Gajendra ruled the forest with strength and grace, leading his herd to abundant food and water.
Yet, deep within, he retained an unexplained sense of devotion and connection to the divine.
One scorching day, Gajendra led his herd to a crystal-clear lake nestled amidst the mountains.
The lake, surrounded by lotuses and shaded by tall trees, provided a refreshing retreat.

As Gajendra waded into the water, enjoying its coolness, a lurking danger awaited him.
Suddenly, a ferocious crocodile clamped onto Gajendra’s leg with its powerful jaws.
The crocodile, once a celestial Gandharva cursed to live as a reptile, was bound to this form until his liberation.

Gajendra roared in pain and struggled to free himself. His immense strength allowed him to put up a fierce fight, but the crocodile, being a creature of water, had the advantage.
The battle between the two raged on for a thousand celestial years. As Gajendra grew weaker, he looked toward his herd for help, but they, unable to save him, gradually retreated into the forest.

Alone and exhausted, Gajendra realized that no amount of physical strength or worldly support could save him. In that moment of despair, memories from his past life stirred within him.
Drawing upon his innate devotion, Gajendra plucked a lotus flower from the lake, raised it high in his trunk, and called out to the Shri Hari

O Lord of all creation, You are my only refuge! You are the protector of the universe, the destroyer of ignorance, and the giver of liberation. Save me from this peril!”
His prayer was not addressed to any specific form of devta but to the eternal, all-encompassing divine presence of Bhagwan Vishnu

Gajendra’s heartfelt plea echoed through the heavens, reaching the abode of Shri Vishnu. Moved by the sincerity of his devotee, Shri Vishnu immediately mounted Garuda, and descended to the lake.
As soon as Gajendra saw Shri Vishnu, he surrendered completely, offering the lotus flower in his trunk.

The Shri Vishnu, in His infinite compassion, leapt from Garuda and with His Sudarshana Chakra, severed the crocodile’s head, liberating it from its curse.
The crocodile, now freed, regained its celestial form and ascended to the heavens.

Shri Vishnu turned to Gajendra and spoke with great kindness:
“O noble soul, your unwavering devotion has pleased me. You are now free from the cycles of birth and death. Come, join me in my eternal abode.”
Gajendra regaining his divine essence as King Indradyumna. Together, they ascended to Vaikuntha, the eternal realm of Shri Vishnu.
