Surya putra Yamraj apni behan Yamuna ke ghar gaye — tab se bhai-behan ke sneh ka ye parv chala.
Behan ka nimantran
Yamuna baar-baar apne bhai Yamraj ko ghar bulati thin, par kaam mein vyast Yamraj nahi ja paate the. Ek din Kartik Shukla Dwitiya ko wo achanak Yamuna ke ghar pahunche.
Sneh ka satkaar
Yamuna ne bade prem se bhai ka tilak kiya, aarti utaari aur swaadisht bhojan karaya. Prasann Yamraj ne vardaan maangne ko kaha.
Vardaan
Yamuna ne maanga — "Jo bhai is din behan ke ghar jaakar tilak karaaye aur bhojan kare, use akaal mrityu ka bhay na ho." Yamraj ne "tathastu" kaha. Isliye Mathura ke Vishram Ghat par is din bhai-behan Yamuna snaan karte hain.
