According to mythology, the ancestors of Maheshwari Samaj belonged to the Kshatriya dynasty. Once while hunting, he was cursed by the sages. Then on this day Lord Shiva freed them from the curse and protected their ancestors. Along with this, he was told to take the path of non-violence by leaving violence. Mahadev also gave his name to this society by his grace. This is the reason why this community is known by the name 'Maheshwari'. Thus, Mahesh Navami is considered to be one of the biggest festivals of the Maheshwari Community.
