The priest conducting the ceremony told the king that he needed to find the animal, or perform a human sacrifice to avert the misfortune resulting from the situation.As the moment of breaking the fast was drawing near, the mighty sage Durvasa arrived, and was received with all honours by Ambarisha.As the auspicious moment approached when the king had to break his fast to fulfill the vow of the vrata, Durvasa did not turn up.On the advice of his priests, the king broke his fast by taking a little water, and waited for the arrival of sage Durvasa to offer him food.Because Ambarisha was a great devotee, the Sudarshana Chakra intervened, destroyed the asura, and started chasing Durvasa himself.
