To prevent this, he used to offer coconut fruits to Mata Ji, but once he forgot to offers and consequently his 6 out of 7 ships wrecked in the sea. Koilaya, they had to recite their coconut in the sea. So that their travels could be settled down. Once Kutch’s businessman Jagadusha got his goods filled with goods in seven ships, he started to roam the trade, but he forgot to come to.


The merchant was very sad with this incident and came Harisiddhi Mata temple and prayed to her and requested the Maa to help him get his wrecked ships back. He always  requested Maa that from now no ships of any merchants should burn and wreck.

The mother said to test Jagadu, “If you resign coyote to her at every step, I would need come down. Jagadu consent the Mataji’s condition and sacrificed one animal at every step, but when the last four steps were left, he was left with no animal to sacrifice, then Jagadusha sacrificed his son, two wives and sacrificed himself at the last step. Ultimately, Mataji was pleased with his devotion and resurrected Jagadu, his son, both wives.
