1 There is a short tale mentioned in Ganesha Purana, where Tulsi is called Vrinda in her human life.

2 Vrinda once came across Lord Ganesha, who was deeply engaged in meditation and was captivated by his beauty.

3 She requested Lord Ganesha to take her as his wife, to which he politely refused.

4 Lord Ganesha mentioned that he could only marry a match like his parents, Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva.

5 Vrinda couldn’t bare the rejection and cursed that Lord Ganesha will get married against his will.

6 Few scriptures also state that Ganesha refused because of the vow of celibacy, which was breached because of Vrinda’s curse.

7 Lord Ganesha got annoyed by this and cursed her to be married to an Asura (demon) in

near future.

8 Ganesha’s anger was only pacified, when Vrinda realized her mistake she prayed for forgiveness.

9 He cited that she will be transformed into a sacred plant (Tulsi) and will please all the Gods (except him).

10 Lord Ganesha also stated that her leaves will not be accepted while worshiping him.
