recalled the history of her past Life

Jai Sri Ram,

 Devi Parvati gladly sat down beside Shiva and recalled the history of her past Life,

May Lord bless all,

veritable mine of beauty,

Jai sri Ram
Serpents and ashes servings as ornaments of the slayer of demon tripura,

with big eyes as big as of lotuses, throat dark with poison and with the crescent shining on his brow, the lord looked like a veritable mine of beauty,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

beneath the tree

Jai Sri Ram,
It is the favorite resort of Shiva, extolled by Vedas-once upon a time the Lord betook himself beneath the tree and was much gladdened at heart to see it,

Spreading his asana on the ground with his own hand-the all-merciful Shiva sat down casually,

His body fair in the hue as the jasmine, the Moon and conch shell; arms of ordinate length-a hermits covering, consisting the barks of trees-wrapped round his loins,

His feet resembling a pair of full-blown red lotus and their toe nail shedding a luster which dispelled the darkness of devotee's heart,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

How strange

Jai Sri Ram,
The Women were seized with excessive fear when they saw Shiva in frightful accouterments,

They fled in great panic, Mena was sore distressed at heart and sent for Parvati-with great affection she seated her in her laps,

Tears rushed to her eyes, to think that the creator, who made you so beautiful, should have been different enough to give you such a raving madman for a bridegroom,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

house to house

Jai sri Ram,
Boys on reaching home when their parents questioned them-they spoke as follow-their limbs still shaking with fear, what shall we say,

The sight was such as could not be described, we wonder whether it was a bridegroom's procession or the army of death,

 The Bridegroom is a maniac, riding on a bull; serpents, skulls and ashes are his ornaments, his body is smeared with ashes and adorned with serpents and skulls, has mattered hair on his head and is dreadful to look at,

He is accompanied by ghosts and evil spirits, Goblins and fairies and demons with a frightful countenance, he who survives on seeing the bridegroom's procession is a man of great luck indeed, and will witness the wedding of Uma-these words uttered by the children from house to house,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please  

capable of taking any form

Jai Sri Ram,
Himachal erected a most wonderful pavilion which beggared description, host of woods seas rivers and ponds were invited by Himachal, capable of taking any form they liked-they assume handsome figure with their fair consorts,

The splendor of city was so captivating that after a glance at it the creative skill of Brahma himself looked very small, men and women of the city were so lovely and ingenious that they enraptured the hearts even of sages,

The city in which the mother of the universe had bodied herself forth baffled all descriptions, prosperity success, wealth and happiness were always on the increase there and presented a new aspect,

When it was heard that the bridegroom was close at hand-there was commotion in the city, which added to its charm but when boys of the city have look unto the attendants on lord Shiva, phobia runs through them-bridegroom himself was indifferent to the truth of mundane beauty,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

The attendants of Shiva

Jai Sri Ram,
The attendants of Shiva began to adorn their Lord-his matted locks were formed in crown and decked with crest of serpents, he had serpents for his earrings and bracelets, smeared his person with ashes and wrapped a lion skin around his loins,

A trident and a small drum shaped like hour glass adorned his hand-Shiva rode on a bull-female divinities smile to see him they said-the world has no bride worthy of bridegroom-Brahma Vishnu and host of other gods joined the bridegroom's procession and rode on their respective vehicles,

 God Vishnu called all the guardians of the different quarters and smilingly said-every one should march separately with his own retinue, this procession is no worthy of the bridegroom, you make your self a butt of ridicule in a strange city,

The Great Lord Shiva laughed in his sleeves and noticed the humour of Lord Vishnu Never fails, Lord Call Brangi to his attendants-indeed they were different to self in appearance not favorable to the truth of Human race yet the procession was quite worthy of the bridegroom,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

damsels sangs for joy

Jai sri Ram,
Sri Parvati said to the sages that as per your statement Shiva has burnt the god of love betrays woeful lack of thought in you,

Fire possesses this inherent property that frost can never approach it, in case it does it must veritably punish,

Similar is the case with god of love and the Lord Shiva, Hearing the words of Parvati and perceiving her devotion and faith, the sages were gladdened at heart, bowing their head to her, they went to Himachal,

They related the whole episode to him and he was much grieved to hear that Shiva burnt Kama, then sages told about the boon Shiva awarded to Rati-Himachal relieved, Speedily date of wedding fixed as per Vedic precepts, all the god learns to adorn their vehicles and aerial cars of various kind-Happy and auspicious omens were visible and celestial damsels sangs for joy,

accomplish my vow,

Jai sri Ram,
Seven sages immediately approached Parvati and said, relying on advice of Narada you would heed our remonstrances then, your vow has failed now-for the great Lord Shiva has burnt the god of Love,

Parvati said-you have spoken aright by you Shiva has burnt Kama and till now , was smitten with love,

But to my mind-is eternally in rapport with infinite, unbegotten, irreproachable, passionate and without enjoyment,

Knowing him as such if i have served him lovingly, in thought words and deeds then gracious lord will accomplish my vow,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Amen

Jai Sri Ganesha,
Having burnt the Kaama, you have done well in granting a boon to Rati, O ocean of Mercy having meted out punishment good masters shower their grace as a matter of course such is their natural habit,

Parvati has practice penance the magnitude of which cannot be estimated kindly accept her Now,

Hearing the entities of Brahma and remembering the words of Lord Rama, Shiva gladly said Amen,

Considering the right moment, the seven sages arrived on the scene , Brahma immediately send then to the abode of Himachal,

May Lord bless all,

enable to feast our eyes

Jai sri Ram,
Rati weeping and wailing and mourning in various ways she approached Shiva and making loving entities in divergent forms she stood before the lord with clasped hands, seeing helpless woman, the benevolent Lord Shiva, who is so easy to placate, prophesied as follows-

Henceforth, O Rati, your husband shall be called by the name of Ananga that bodiless, he shall dominate all even without a body and hear how you will meet him again,

When Sri Krishna will descends in the line of Yadu to relieve the earth of its heavy burden, your Lord will born again as his son Pradhyumna-this prediction of mine will can never be untrue, hearing the words of Shiva rati went away,

When Brahma and other gods received all the tidings, they repaired to vaikuntha and all including Brahma and Vishnu went to Lord Shiva and severally extolled and won the heart of Lord Shiva who is by nature an ocean of compassion, Shiva said tell me what has brought you here, Brahma replied that O Lord you are inner controller of all, even than my master my devotion to you urges me to make the following submission-the heart of all the immortals is seized with a dominating impulse, they long to witness your wedding with their own eyes, O humbler of pride of Love, Devise some means whereby we may be enable to feast our eyes on this glad event,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Mind of Shiva

Jai sri Ram,
On failure cupid climbed on a mango tree and discharged five arrows which smote breast of shiva trounce now broken and Shiva awoken,

Mind of Shiva got agitated, opened eye and look around, saw cupid on the mango tree

Shiv open his third eye which makes god of love to ashes

The mystics were freed from torments while Rati wife of Kaam-Dev fainted,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

benevolence is the highest virtue,

Jai sri Ram,
Sati has born in the house of Himalaya but Shiva has renounced everything, Let us approach cupid the god of love and send him to Shiva to disturb the serenity of the mind of Shiva, they meet and express their desire but Kaama Dev Said with smile-i expect no good for myself from hostility to shambhu,

However, i shall do your work; for Vedas say benevolence is the highest virtue,

So saying god of love bowed his head to all and departed with his all associate, he thought hostility to Shiva means that yet he exhibited his power and brought the world under his sway, whatever creature existed in the world whether animate or inanimate bearing masculine and feminine appellations transgressed their bounds and were completely possessed by lust,

Even great Yogis and ascetics were completely possessed by lust, to saying nothing of low minded people, women perceive the whole world as full of men while later beheld it as full of women, nearly an hour this wonderful game of love lasted in this universe, nobody could remains self possessed---the God of love with his army of followers exhausted all his numberless stratagems; Shiva's unbroken trance, could not be disturbed,

May Lord bless all,
\
Thanks Please 

subdue the demon in battle

Jai sri Ram,
Seeing the truth of devi parvati Sages exclaimed Glory, all glory to you, O mother of the universe,

You are the Maya, while Shiva is god himself, you are parents of this whole universe, bowing their head at the feet of Devi Parvati they departed,

Sages went and dispatched Himvaan to Girija and he with many entreaties brought her home,

A demon Taraka by name flourished in those days his strength of arm, glory and majesty were great indeed, he conquered all spheres, all the gods robbed of their happiness and prosperity knowing neither age nor death, he was invincible, god fought many battles with him but fail they went to Brahma with their state, Brahma found all the gods miserable, assured them by saying that the demon shall die when there is a son From Shiva for he alone can subdue the demon in battle,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

hundred times to do so,

Jai sri Ganesha,
Seven sages saw the Gauri as if she were penance personified, they said O daughter of Himalaya, whom do you worship and for what, confide us the real secret, She said i am shy in making submission,on the words of Narada, make up my mind and now i always covet Shiva s my husband,

Hearing the words sages laughed and said, tell us who has ever listened to Naradas's advice and lived in home, he called on and admonised the sons of Dakha and they never saw their home again, it was he who ruined the home of Citraketu and Hiranyakasipu,

Men and women who listen to Narada's advice are sure to leave their home and become mendicants,guileful at heart, he bear on his person the marks of pious man; he make everyone like himself,

Relying on his words you crave for a husband who is apathetic by nature, devoid of attributes, homeless and naked, wears string of skulls around neck without a family and has serpents for his ornaments-tell us what happiness do you expect from such a husband, can women ever stay in the house of habitual recluse, even now accept our advice- we have an excellent match for you Sri hari Vishnu, parvati replied had you meet me earlier, O great sages i would have listened your advice with reverence but now i have staked my life for Shiva, who will weigh the merits and demerits, I fall at your feet it is already late, i have to continue struggle for ten millions lives-i will not disregard Narada's admonition even if Shiva himself tell me a hundred times to do so,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

send her back to home,

Jai Sri Ram,
Shiva replied that though this is hardly justified, the words of master cannot be set aside at the same time,

You are my supreme benefactor in every way-i bow to your commands,

Sri Rama said your vow has been kept -now bear in mind what i have told you, saying so he went out of sight,

That very moment the seven a sages called on Shiva, Shiva said go to parvati and put her love to test, then directing her father send her back to home,

May lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

Go and Marry Sailja

Jai sri Ram,
When Sri Rama saw the self discipline and affection of Shiva and indelible stamp of devotion on his heart, the merciful Lord who recognizes services rendered to him and is mine of beauty and amiability and embodiment of great splendor, appeared before Shiva and extolled him in many ways,

Who else than you can accomplish such a vow,

Sri Rama admonished him in many ways and told him about the Birth of Devi parvati incarnation of Sati, Lord in his infinite compassion narrated  at full length the most pious doings of Parvati,

Now, Shiva, if you have any affection for me, listen my appeal, Go and Marry Sailja-the daughter of Himalaya, grand this boon to me,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Lord Sri Hari Vishnu,

Jai sri Ram,
There have been many self possessed sages but not one of them has performed such penance as this, Now cherish in your heart this supreme this supreme utterance from heaven, knowing it to be invariably true and ever sacred,

When your father comes to call you, give up all resistance and return home at once, again when seven sages meet you, be assured of the veracity of this oracle, Uma rejoiced to hear this utterance of Brahma echoes by heaven and a thrill run to her limbs,

Ever since the Sati went and quieted her body, Shiva's mind recoiled from everything, immersed in the name of Rama,

 Embodiment of intelligence and bliss abode of happiness, Shiva is ever free from error, arrogance and desire roamed about on the earth with his heart fixed on Lord Sri Hari Vishnu,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

slayer of Tripura will soon be yours,

Jai sri Ram,
Uma went to forest and began her penance, her dedicate frame was little fit for austerities; yet she renounced all luxuries fixing her mind on the feet of her Lord,

Her devotion presented a new phase everyday and she got absorbed in penance that she lost all conscious of her body, while another hundred years she subsisted on the fruits and vegetables

For some days her only sustenance was water and the air, while for a few days she observed a rigorous fast, for three thousand years she sustain one leaves and bela, finally she gave up even dry leaves and earn the name APARNA

Seeing her body emaciated through self mortification the deep voice of Brahma resounded through the heavens-listen O daughter of mountain King-your desire is accomplish-cease all your rigorous penance; slayer of Tripura will soon be yours,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

Sage Vedasira

Jai sri Ram,
Mena ta once rose and went to Parvati uma kalyani, at the sight of Uma tears rushed to her eyes and she hugged the child,

Mother of the universe that known in the nmae of Uma thus spoke, listen mother; i relate to you a vision which i saw- a handsome and fair complextion noble brahmana gave me the following exhortation,

Recognise the truth of words of Narada and practice austerity,
Austerity is conductive to joy and put a pause to sorrow
By virtue of penance sesa beholds the earth
By virtue of penance Vishnu protects the whole universe
By virtue of penance Shiva brings bout dissolution.
Go and practice penance

Mother filled with wonder by words of her loving daughter, went to Himalaya and communicated, Sage veasera came and consoled them all they were comfort when they heard the Glory of Devi Parvati,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

Put away all anxiety

Jai Sri Ram,
Having spoken thus, the sage returned to the abode of Brahma, there finding her husband alone mother of parvati uma kalyani Sri Mena said to him, i did not follow the words of sage, if match is not there than why we proceed with, the girl better remain unmarried; for; my lord, Uma is dear to me as my own life-if we fail to secure a suitable match for Uma every one will say us dull,

Having spoken these words Mena laid herself prostrate with her head at the feet of her Lord, Himalaya replied in enduring terms sooner shall the moon emit flames of fire than the prophecy of Narada should prove untrue,

Put away all anxiety-my dear- and fix your thought on lord, he alone who has created Parvati will bring her happiness, Now if you cherish any love for your child, then go and admonish her that she should  practice austerity which may bring about her union with Shiva, there is no other way to overcome sorrow,

The words of Narada are full of reason, Shiva is house of virtues and truth of beauty, hearing the words of her consort mena felt delighted at heart,


May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

all will now turn out well,

Jai Sri Ram,
The great lord Shiva is certainly difficult to propitious but he is quickly pleased when penance is undergone, if your daughter practices austerity , Shiva can even erase the lines of fate, even though there may be many suitor in the world, there is no match to her except Shiva,

Shiva is bestower f boons,
Shiva is dispeller of agony
Shiva is an ocean of benevolence
Shiva is delight of devotees,

Without propitiating Shiva the object of desire cannot be attained  through millions of Yogic practice and Japa.

So saying fixed his thoughts on lord Sri Hari Vishnu, Narada gave blessings to Uma Kalyani and said shed all fear, O lord of mountains all will now turn out well,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

matrimony with him will prove auspicious in every way

Jai Sri Ram,
Himalaya said, tell me Holy Sir, what remedy should now be employed-Narada replied, Hear O himvaan-whatever have been decreed by fate no one can undo-not even gods, demons, human beings, Nagas and the sages yet i tell you one remedy: this may    avail if heaven helps you-Uma undoubtedly get a husband as i narrated you but whatever demerits i have shown in her brideroom exist in shiva so far as i guass,

If her marriage takes place with shiva every one will call the demerits as good virtue,
Even Sri Hari uses the serpent-god sesa as his couch and sleeps thereon-no one blames him
Even so the fire and the sun absorb moisture in all forms but no one recalls them
Water of all description, pure as well impure, flows into Ganga yet no one calls heavenly stream impure,
Even like the sun, the fire and the Ganga, the mighty incur no blame,

Holy men would never drink wine even if they came to know that had been made of water from Ganga but the same wine if poured into Ganga they take it with respect,

Shambhu is all-powerful by nature for he is no other than God himself hence matrimony with him will prove auspicious in every way,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please  

she concealed her emotions

Jai sri Ram,
Hearing the words of sage and believing them to be true, Himalaya and his wife become disconsolate while Uma FELT DELIGHTED, even Narada could not Perceive this difference, even though there outer expression was the same, their feeling was different,

The words of the celestial sage Narada could not be untrue; Uma cherished them in heart,

Love for the lotus feet of Shiva spouted in her heart-she however feel diffident in her mind, union with Shiva appeared as difficult to her,

Finding the time inopportune for its disclosure, she concealed her emotions

 May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Jai sri Ram,
Receiving news of glorious Himalaya Narada eagerly went to the house of Himachal, King received him like anything-washing the feet of Sage, he lead him to a beautiful seat, he bowed his head along with wife Himachal extolled his good luck, summoning his daughter, placed her at the sage's feet,

You know everything including the past, present and the future and have access everywhere, O good sage-tell me what is good and what is bad, about my daughter after a mature consideration, the sage smilingly replied in the following soft yet significant words-----your daughter is mine of all virtues-pretty, amiable and intelligent by nature-----she will called Uma-Umbica-kalyani-adorned with all traits-the girl shall win the unfailing love of her husband-------she shall ever remains united with her Lord------ and bring glory to her parents------she shall command the respect of this universe-he who wait upon her shall lack nothing,

BY MARE THOUGHT OF HER NAME WOMEN IN THIS WORLD SHALL BE ENABLED TO THREAD THE PATH OF FIDELITY TO THEIR LORD, which is sharp as the edge of a sword,

O Himalaya-your Daughter is endowed with auspicious marks-hear now few drawback she possesses- Devoid of merits, free from pride, without father and mother, unconcerned and free from doubts, an ascetic with matted hair and a heart devoid of longing, stark naked and with hideous accouterments-such a one shall be her Lord as i can read from the lines on her palm,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Having reasoned with her in many ways when Shiva at last perceived that Sati was not going stay, arrange few of his principal attendants as her escort and sent her away,

When Sati reached there in her father's house, no one greeted her for fear of incurring Daksha's in-pleasure, only her mother met her kindly, Sati then went to her father foe equerry unto burning subject, there was no place for Shiva in sacrifice being made by Daksha  made Devi Sati indifferent altogether, her heart burnt within her at thought of insult offered to her Lord, there are terrible agonies of various kinds in this world but the insult offered to one's own people is most painful of them all-it made Sati furious-her mother tries to pacify her in many ways but insult of Shiva was unbearable to her in any case-here heart could not pacified-sharply reproaching the whole     assembly-she spoke in angry accents______

Hear ye elders of assembly and all great sages! all of you who have reviled Shiva or heard him reviled must forthwith reap the fruits of your sin and my father too shall-slayer of demons Lord Shiva is a universal spirit, is lord of this universe and is beneficent to all- it is him that my father has vilified and this body of mine is from the sprung from the lions of Daksha-therefore installing in my heart Lord Shiva, i shall immediately quite this body, as spoke thus she burnt her body with the fire of Yoga----a plaintive cry rose from the whole assembly,


Hearing death of Sati, attendants of Shiva began to destroy the sacrifice, sage braghu tries to protect it as Shiva got all the news sent Veer Bhadra to destroy the sacrifice or yagna, requited all the gods according to their deserts Daksha meet the fate and their after the mercy of Lord Shiva that known to the whole world-while dying Devi Sati asked a boon of Sri Hari Vishnu that she might remain devoted to the feet of Shiva in all successive births and that is Why SHE WAS REBORN IN THE HOUSE OF HIMACHAL_EVER SINCE SHE INCARNATED AS UMA IN THE HOUSE OF HIMACHAL< HIMALAYA BECOMES THE ABODE OF BLESSINGS AND PROSPERITY,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

speedily rid of this body of mine,

Jai sri Ram,
The grief that preyed on Sati's mind was ever new; for she did not know when she would be able to cross the ocean of sorrow-Sati was in deep thoughts of her agony that providence has repaid me for my sins and had done only which i deserve-Now O God, it does not be-hove you that you should make me survive even after alienating me from Shiva, The anguish of her heart was beyond measure-Sati-the sane lady invoked the presence of Rama in her heart and addressed him thus-if they refer you as compassionate to the poor and if Vedas have glorified you as dispeller of sorrow------i beseech with joined palm-O Lord that i may be speedily rid of this body of mine,

 If i have any devotion to the feet of Shiva and if i am true my my vow in thought words and deeds, then O all pervading Lord, listen to me and speedily devise some plan whereby i may die and be thus rid of this unbearable    calamity  without much exertion,

Sati-the daughter of Daksha thus feel miserable her deep agony was terrible beyond words, 87000 years elapsed and Shiva emerged from his trance with chanting the name of Sri Rama, as Sati come to know went and bow her head, lord Shiva oblige her in many decent ways-meanwhile Brahma made Daksha supreme lord of all beings which encourage him to perform a yagna, never a creature born in this world whom power did not intoxicate,

Daksha invited all in his sacred yagna but his son-in-law Shiva, Sati come to know about this great yagna by her father and seek permission from Shiva to attend it, Shiva said that anomaly is that your father has sent no invitation to us, has invited all daughters but ignore us for a reason that in Brahma's court once took offence at my behavior and that is why he insults us even now, if you go there without invitation all decorum affection and honor will cast to wind-no doubt true one should call on one's friend, master, father's home without a formal invitation yet where someone nurses a grudge against you-you reap no good by going there, though tries all to convince Sati but fate had willed it wisdom would not dawn on her, the lord repeated once more that if she went her father's home uninvited he anticipate no good from it,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Conscious her gilt

Jai Sri Ram,
Conscious her gilt she could not utter a word of protest but all the while her heart smoldered like a furnace,

 Perceiving the sad look of Sati, Shiva narrated many beautiful stories in order to divert her mind,

relating various legends while on his way, the lord Shiva reached kailash and sat down under the banyan tree in yogic posture and take a long samadhi,

Sati dwelt in kailash, her mind grievously sorrowing, no body knew anything what was going in her mind, but the days hung heavy on her like so many yugas or ages,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please  

Felt disturbed

Jai Sri Ram,
Devi sati felt perturbed in her heart at the thought of what she had done

And the extend of her anxiety could neither be gauged nor described,

She realized that Lord Shiva is supremely unfathomable ocean of mercy, hence-he had not openly declare her fault,

From this attitude of Lord, she judged that the lord had abandoned her and felt disturbed in her heart,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

she had deceive Shiva

Jai sri Ram,
Devi Sati was so distressed to heard the voice of heaven unto the vow of lord Shiva

She addressed Shiva in a faltering voice-please tell me-O merciful Lord, What vow you have taken

You are embodiment of Truth and compassion to the poor, even though Sati inquired in many ways, slayer of tripura not spoken even a word,

Sati Concluded that the omniscient Lord had come to know everything and felt sorry that she had deceive Shiva

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

who else can take such a vow as Lord Shiva

Jai Sri Ram,
Sati is too chaste to be abandoned, and it is great sin to love her anymore as a wife,

The great Lord Shiva uttered not a word aloud, although there was great agony in his heart,

Then Shiva bowed his head at the feet of lord Rama and as soon as he invoked Sri Rama the idea came to his mind that he should have no connection with Sati So long as she continued to remain in that body,

Shiva resolved accordingly and heaving so resolved the stable minded lord Shiva proceeded towards his Home-who else can take such a vow as Lord Shiva was voice from heaven which troubled Devi sati,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please  

indecorous on my part to do so,

Jai Sri Ram,
Again Lord Shiva bowed to the delusive power of Sri Rama which has prompted Sati to tell lie,

What had been predominated by the will of Lord Sri Hari Vishnu must have its way,

Lord Shiva thought within self that Sati had assumed the disguised of Sita and it made him disconsolate at heart,

Lord said to himself if i continue to love Sati as hereafter, the cult of devotion will disappear and it will be indecorous on my part to do so,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please
