Synopsis [Based On Shiv Puran]

Goddess Sati, a personification of the divine female energy, was born as a daughter of Daksha Prajapati, a son of Brahma. As Sati grew to womanhood, the idea of marrying anyone else, as proposed by her father, became abhorrent to her. Her father Daksha didn’t think much of Shiva . Despite his intense hatred for Lord Shiva, upon Lord Brahmas’ intervention, wedding was held. After the wedding of Shiva and the Divine Mother, Shiva gathered his beautiful young bride in his arms and took her to his mountain home.
Sati's father Daksha had never approved of his daughter's marriage. To Daksha, Shiva was an unorthodox hermit, who frequented cremation grounds.After Sati’s marriage, Daksha distanced himself from his daughter, and his son-in-law, Shiva.
Daksha organized a great ritual sacrifice. He invited all the members of his family, allies, gods, sages, courtiers and subjects. He consciously excluded Sati and Shiva from the list.Sati was hurt by her father's refusal to acknowledge her marriage and her husband and decided to go to the yagna.
When she arrived, her father Daksha explained that he could not sully his glorious celebration by inviting a dirty dishevelled god like Shiva who hung out in graveyards with thieves and criminals, with the sick and the hungry, who had matted hair and wore a loincloth of animal skins. Some of the guests began to laugh. Sati was hurt by the insult to her husband and was devastated.
She summoned up her strength and spoke this vow to her father, "Since you have given me this body I no longer wish to be associated with it." She sat in a meditative seat on the ground. Closing her eyes, envisioning her true Lord, Sati fell into a mystic trance. Going deep within herself she began to increase her own inner fire through yogic exercises until her body burst into flames.
Upon hearing the news of his beloved wife's death, Shiva, was first shocked and saddened, then enraged. He fell into the deepest and darkest place he could find. He tore his hair out, and fashioned from this hair the fiercest of warriors, Virabhadra Bhairav. Shiva then commanded Virabhadra to go to the yagna and destroy Daksha and all the guests. Upon Shiva's orders ,Virabhadra stormed the ceremony and killed Daksha as well as many of the guests.
Terrified and with remorse the surviving guests and other Gods begged Lord Shiva for mercy and to restore Daksha's life. Shiva arrived at Daksha's palace to see the damage that Virabhadra had done and absorbed Virabhadra back into his own form. Shiva’s anger was gone and he was filled with sorrow. This sorrow turned to compassion when he saw the bloody aftermath of Virabhadra. Shiva found Daksha's headless body and gave it the head of a goat, bringing Daksha back to life.With Daksha's pride put in check he bowed in awe and humility to Shiva Shankar. The other gods and goddesses followed his lead and honoured Shiva.
