महारथ आपकी जय हो

English

Then taking leave of the goddess Brahma vanished. The goddess visited her parents Mena, Himavat. She bowed to them and alleviated the pangs of her parents due to her absence. The goddess then proceeded to Mandara talking to her friends about the trees in the penance-grove who had been her loving companions. "They are shedding tears due to their grief at separation, by their scattering flowers, they are crying in distress by the chirping sound of birds seated on their boughs." The goddess was impatient to see her lord. She kept the tiger ahead thinking him as son born of herself, out of affection. With the brilliant lustre of her body she illuminated the quarters. Thus Gauri reached Mandara where lord Siva was staying — the lord who is the creator, protector and annihilator of the worlds.
