Lord Shiva advised the deities to seek help from Vishnu, who then defeated all the demons but unfortunately, the demon Maru fled from the middle of the battle. After this Vishnu stopped fighting and went to take rest in the Badri cave. At the same time, the demon Maru came to kill Him, but this time a girl descended from Lord Vishnu, and put an end to that demon Maru. That girl told Vishnu that she was His incarnation. After this, Vishnu gave a boon to that girl and said that the devotees who have got themselves entangled in illusion, you will have to bring them again on the path of devotion and you will be known throughout the world as Ekadashi.
