Salailen heard their prayer and told the goddess Imoinu to help the couple.
When Konthoujambi was pregnant with a three month old fetus, Salailen instructed her that her child will be His wife in the future.
The couple named their daughter Chingphulon Konthousu (later known as Tampha).
One day, while Tampha was out in an open field with her friends, a strong wind blew.
To please her, Salailen promised her that the people of her native place would attain immortality and be safe from all diseases.
Up in heaven, Tampha saw the smoke rising from her native place.
Tampha told her mother of the conditions with which she was leaving heaven to meet them on earth.
Inside the shades, she served out delicious food for Tampha.
Poor Tampha was compelled to eat what her mother had so lovingly prepared for her.
As Tampha started eating, Salailen proclaimed from heaven that she could not come back to his abode.
[2][5] In an ancient Meitei language text Konthoucham Nongkalol, there is an account of how a mortal earthly lady Chingphulon Konthousu (birth name of goddess Konthoujam Tampha) turned into an immortal divine heavenly lady after her marriage with Salailen, the ruler of heaven.
In the text, in an episode of the story during which Konthoujam Tampha went down to earth and met her parents, her mother told her the following: O daughter of mine, none of your parents or brothers ever dies.
The watchful dog of your Lord Soraren kept amidst us was fatally bitten by a snake.
Now your younger brothers and sisters too will be able to have a look at you.By saying so, her mother gently and persistently persuade her (Konthoujam Tampha) to take dinner prepared by them (her family members).
