According to Hindu Purana, ‘Sosti’ is the wife of Devasenapati Kartika and she is called the “Goddess of Fertility” and “ The Household Goddess”. In the ‘Brambhabeibertapurana’ there is a story about a king named Preyabrata, who had not any children. Once Rishi Kashyap advised him for a ‘Putreyesti Yogga’ but his queen gave birth to a dead child. At the time of cremation a goddess suddenly appeared to the bereaved king. She gave life back to his dead child, but she returned to heaven along with the live child. Then the King started worship to the goddess. And one day he got his child back from the pleased Goddess.
At present the great tree helplessly tolerating local hobnobbers every day. As usual every year at the time of adoration all blind women will gather for their intentions, but no one will ask her “How are you Maa Sosti?”
