Birth story of Narad Muni

According to mythology, in his previous birth Narad was a Gandharva named ‘Upabarhan’. He was very proud of his appearance. Once in heaven Apsaras and Gandharvas were worshiping Brahma ji with songs and dances, then Upabarhan came there with women and got engrossed in Rasleela. Brahma ji got angry seeing this and cursed Upabarhan that his next birth would be in ‘Shudra vagina’.

Narada Muni was a Gandharva in his previous birth.

Due to the curse of Brahma ji, ‘Upabarhan’ was born in the house of ‘Shudra Dasi’. ‘Upabarhan’ started being engrossed in the devotion of God. It is said that one day he was sitting under a tree in meditation, when suddenly he saw a glimpse of God, who immediately disappeared. Upabarhan’s faith in God became deeper. One day there was a voice in the sky that – O child, you will not be able to see me in this birth, but in the next birth you will be my councilor, after this ‘Upabarhan’ did a great penance of Lord Vishnu, as a result of which the son of Brahma ji became human. Narad ji incarnated in form.
