SUCHINDRAM

The Goddesses replied that they would even worship that lady if she could perform such a miracle. With that promise from the God dresses, Narada appeared before Anasuya and requested her to fry the gram-shaped iron pieces. When Anasuya was slightly upset at the impossibility of doing so,she remembered the Padatirtha of her husband and at once she felt confident that she could do it. Thereupon she brought the sacred water and sprinkling it on the iron pieces, she uttered the name of her husband.

Instantly the iron was fried. Narada took leave of Anasuya, placed the fried iron grams before the Goddesses, and requested them to taste them. The Goddesses found them soft and sweet find thus Narada brought home to them that it was unwise to consider themselves supreme though they were the proud devis of the Trinity.
