It seems like you're sharing a story about Gayasura, a demon from ancient times who was a devoted follower of Lord Maha Vishnu. According to the story, Gayasura's devotion was so strong that Lord Vishnu granted him the boon of attaining mukthi (liberation) immediately. As a test of Gayasura's capabilities, a Yagna (ritual sacrifice) was conducted for seven days on his pious body.

During the Yagna, Lord Vishnu placed a lotus flower on a stone and pressed it with his foot. Gayasura, in his eagerness to serve Vishnu, offered himself by laying down beneath the stone. Lord Vishnu then pressed the lotus flower with such force that Gayasura's body gave up its life.

This story highlights themes of devotion, sacrifice, and divine acceptance. Gayasura's unwavering devotion to Lord Vishnu ultimately led to his liberation, albeit through a test of sacrifice.
