He served as a priest in the Shiva Temple, and he used to wake up early\nin the morning, finishes his routine works, and fetches water from the temple\nwell, and would start doing Abhishekham and Puja to Lord Shiva. After finishing\nPuja, he would distribute the temple Prasad to the devotees, and then only he\nused to take his food. He was well versed in Vedas and Hindu divine texts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In\ncourse of time, due to his selfless service to the god, he got more spiritual\npowers, and utilized his power to heal the diseases of the people, and invoked\nthem into the <strong>\u201cSHIVA BHAKTI PATH\u201d<\/strong>.\nAfter knowing about the greatness of Shankara, the king of Varanasi had decided\nto test his powers, and called him to his palace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The king welcomed Shankara to his palace in a grand manner, and brought his pet animal cat in front of him, and asked him to send it to SwarkaLoka, and to get some Divine flowers from the palace of Lord Indra. Shankara didn\u2019t get upset, but he chanted the mantras of Lord Shiva and applied the sacred ash on the body of the cat and wore a Rudraksha Mala to the cat, and tied a piece of written paper in the neck of the cat and in that, he mentioned the message to give the divine flowers to the cat, and thrown it into the sky. Surprisingly, the cat began to fly in the sky, and reached the Swarka Loka. There Lord Indra warmly welcomed the cat and offered a seat and read the contents of the paper, and immediately brought some divine flowers and tied it in the neck of the cat and sent it to the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the\nseeing the cat returned with divine flowers, the king was very much astonished\nand began to praise the powers of shankara, and came to know about the holiness\nof Rudraksha and sacred ash, and immediately he wore Rudraksha and applied\nsacred ash in his body, and ordered his people also to follow it, and made his\npeople to become the devotees of Lord Shiva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\nus worship the great Shiva devotee Sri Shankara and be blessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cOM SRI SHANKARARE NAMAHA\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cOM NAMAH
