Vedavati who became Swaha consort of Agni and then later Maya Sita and then Padmavati the consort of Lord Balaji

This is very interesting Vedavati performed austerities to become Lord Visnu wife, however Ravana touched her hair while she did austerities and she gave up her body then she played the role of Maya Sita in Lord Ramachandras pastimes, so when Ravana was about to abduct Sita ,Lord Agni took Sitadevi to his abode to protect her from Ravana and instead Maya Sita was created from Agnis wife Swaha, that was previously Vedavati.(when we offer in fire we always chant Swaha because ,Swaha was the consort of Agnideva) ,so in Skanda purana Lord Visnu Balaji states :from Skanda Purana regarding Maya Sita- Lord Visnu speaking:
"In Treta yugha, when I had incarnated as Ram, Ravan had deceitfully abducted my consort Sita. But fortunately she was not Sita but Agni's consort Swaha. Before this incident could occur,Agni had already taken Sita to Patalloka and kept his own wife 'Swaha' in her place. Indra's act had special purpose behind it--to avenge Swaha's death,who was Vedavati in her previous birth and who had committed suicide after being touched by the same demon.Actually, Agni's consort 'Swaha' was 'Vedavati' in her previous birth. So, in reality Ravan had abducted Vedavati instead of Sita. Later on, I thanked Agni and promised him that I would make Vedavati my consort in Kaliyuga. The same Vedavati has taken birth as Padmavati. You must go and convince Padmavati to become my consort.Vakulmalika went to Narayanpur and informed the king about Sri Hari's desire. Emperor Akash was extremely delighted at the prospect of having Sri Hari as his son-in-law. An auspicious day was chosen for the marriage and thus, Lord Sri Hari got Padmavati as his consort."
So in beginning of Kali yuga Lord Visnu appeared as Lord Balaji and former Vegavati aka Swaha aka Maya Sita became Padmavati and Lord Vyenkateswara or Lord Balaji as He is also known married Padmavati , but Laxmidevi had left Lord Nararyana in one form and entered into the body of Padmavati
so actually Padmavati became a second Laxmidevi and when you see Lord Balaji you always see picture of Him and Padmavati and Laxmidevi ,Kuvera gave the wealth for the wedding so there is a pastime that Lord Balaji owns Kuvera a great amount of wealth so the devotees in Kali yuga gives huge amount of donationes to Lord Balaji in Tirupati , I have personally seen how wealthy Indians bring suitcases full of money and offer it to Lord Vyenkatesvara

Lord Caitanya brought pages from the Kurma Purana to satisfie one Brahmana that it was Maya Sita Ravana kidnapped but there was much more to this pastime of Maya Sita so I have given the complete picture here, or tried to, and yes then Suparnaka became Kubja in Krsnas pastime , these are some glories of the lilas of Lord Sri Ramachandra
