hey everybody,
as we all know vedavati was the false sita( chaaya sita ) who was the cause for ravan's death. Lord vishnu had promised to marry her in the kaliyuga when he would take the incarnation of lord balaji. During the commencement of kaliyuga , all the sages were performing a yaga. They later faced a dilemma regarding which God to offer the sacrifice to out of the trinity ( brahma , vishnu , shiva). At this, narad suggests that they send sage brigu to test each one of the trinity. First sage brigu goes to brahmalok where lord brahma does not notice brigu's presence as he is lost in the melody of godess saraswati's veena. Brigu goes away feeling unwelcome. Then he reaches kailash parvat where lord shiva and parvati are performing ananda tandava. There also nobody takes notice of him and he moves away from there giving a curse to lord shiva saying tht he would only be worshipped in the form of a ling( shiv ling) . Then he finally reaches vaikunthlok where lord vishnu is reclining on the seshnag. Lord vishnu does not open his eyes. An enraged brigu kicks lord vishnu on his chest ( the place where godess lakshmi resides) . Lord vishnu wakes up and instead of getting angry calmly smiles at brigu and tells him tht his feet would be paining as he had to take the pains of kicking him and thus starts pressing the feet of brigu. At this brigu is very pleased and gets the answer as to whom the great yaga should be dedicated to.
After all these happennings godess lakshmi gets angry and says tht her lord had let brigu kick him at the place where she resided. She was even more enraged at the fact tht he pressed his feet instead of punishing him and thus she leaves vaikunth lok. Since godess lakshmi - godess of wealth had left, the lord also became lacklustre and was devoid of all the luxuries. He then came down to the earth roaming about as he could not live without godess lakshmi. A lady by the name - vakula adopted him as her own son and took care of him. She named him Srinivasa . He lived the life of a hunter. One day he passed thorugh a garden where he heard voices of ladies. There he saw padmavati - the princess of tht land. He fell in love with her and wanted to marry her. Padmavati was vedavati incarnate. After narad recommending srinivasa as an eligible suitor , both padmavati and srinivasa were married. Meanwhile godess lakshmi after finishing her penance came to know of the marriage and reached the abode of srinivasa and questioned the lord about padmavati and his marriage. Then the lord reminded godess lakshmi of the ramavtar were vedavati had helped him to destroy ravan and about his promise. From then onwards in tirupathi lord balaji is worshipped with godess padmavati by his side.
