Story of Rani Sati Dadi

The story of Rani Sati Dadi Maa starts from the time of Mahabharata. Narayani's wish of being married to Abhimanyu and her desire to be Sati in her next life. As granted by Lord Krishna, in her next life she was born as the daughter of Gursamal in the village of Dokwa in Rajasthan. She was named Narayani. Similarly, Abhimanyu took birth in Hissar as the son of Jaliram and named Tandhan. Tandhan and Narayani got married and were leading a peaceful life. Abhimanyu was in possession of a beautiful horse which was being eyed by the son of the king of Hissar from quite some time. Tandhan refused to hand over his precious horse to the king's son. The king's son then decides to forcefully acquire the horse and thus challenges Tandhan for combat. However, Tandhan fights the battle bravely and kills the King's son instead. The enraged king thus kills Tandhan in front of Narayani in the battle. Narayani symbolic to female bravery and power fight with the king and kills him. She then commanded Ranaji (the caretaker of the horse) to make immediate arrangements for her to be set ablaze along with her husband's cremation. Ranaji playing a vital role in fulfilling her wish to be Sati with her husband is then blessed by Narayani that his name will be taken and worshipped along with her name and since then she is known as Rani Sati.
