Parvati decides to reduce the grief of Lord Shiva. She promises to Menavati that she will marry the person whom she will choose. Lord Vishnu and Nandi persuade Lord Shiva to acknowledge Parvati as his wife but to no avail. Menavati asks Parvati to extrude the Shivling from their house to remove the devotion from her heart for Lord Shiva. But Parvati confuses her by spreading the Shivlings all over their house.
