FolkloreThe popular myth is that Lord Vishnu once appears
before a devout Hindu disguised as a mendicant to test the devotee on a
Thursday. Some believe it was Lord Vrihaspati. At first the devotee
neglects his duties towards the holy man and denies him alms and is
lethargic but later when he realizes his mistake, he observes a ritual
fast on Thursdays and appeases the gods.
