Glories of Indira Ekadashi

In the initial part of the harikatha, Srila Gurudev narrates about the appearance of the first Ekadashi which is named as Utpanna Ekadashi. Then he sings the glories of Indira Ekadashi and emphasizes on the point that even if a person worships the Supreme Lord with the desire of acquiring material object, if he has taken shelter of a pure devotee then the Supreme Lord will not deprive him from the real benefits of His worship. He gives the example of King Indrasen and Dhruva Maharaj to substantiate the above statement. Then he narrates the glories of Ambarish Maharaj’s devotion to the Lord.
