committed herself to fire due to disgrace shown by her father Daksha to Shiva, Lord Shiva became

extremely sad. He renounced his worldly duties and went into deep meditation. Meanwhile, the daughter

of the mountains, Parvati started meditating to acquire Shiva as her husband. Moreover, since

Shiva was least interested in the affairs of the world complications which made all the gods concerned and afraid. The gods then sought the help of X to

bring Shiva back to his original self. As planned X shot his arrow on Shiva while he was in meditation. This made Shiva extremely angry and

he opened his third eye - reducing X burned to ashes. ID X.
