Line 62:

The process releases a number of things from the ocean. One product is the lethal poison known as ''[[Halahala]]''. This could contaminate the ocean and destroy all of creation. To save everyone Lord Shiva inhales the poison in an act of self-sacrifice but Parvati rescues him by pressing his neck to stop the poison from spreading. As a result, the color of Lord Shiva's neck turns blue. During the churning many things are obtained from the ocean which includes [[Lakshmi]], the Goddess of fortune and wealth, who is the eternal consort of Vishnu. Thus, everyone gets their wealth and fortune back. Later Vishnu takes the ''Amrita'' secretly from the Asuras and distributes it among the Devas.

The story takes some years leap after which it is shown that Kartikeya has been removed from the post of ''Senapati'' (head of the army), which pleases Indra and for the first time, after so many years, a grown-up Ashoksundari meets Kartikeya. Kartikeya also meets his parents. He enlightens Ashoksundari about meditation and she is inspired by it so much that she renounces her life to meditate, which disturbs Parvati. Parvati is later convinced by Mahadev, and reconciles to her daughter's absence.

Looking at the ill-happenings of the world, of how Ahalya is seduced by Indra, Parvati gives birth to a ''mangalkari'' son Ganesh.

Kartikeya returns to Kailasha, and is given a warm welcome by his family. Once, while sitting with Ganesh, Ganesh got into a fight with Parashuram, in which his tooth was cut, much to the horror of Parvati, Kartikeya and Ashoksundari.

Then a problem crops up of who shall be the first to be worshipped before all gods. This problem is taken to Mahadev's family, and Mahadev organises a challenge, in which the one who would take seven rounds of ''sansar'' and come to Kailash first would become the most respectful God. Ganesh takes seven rounds around his parents, when his mouse-vehicle fails to deliver, and also lights a lamp in Kailasha to prevent the world from going dark. Kartikeya comes to Kailash first; however, Mahadev declares Ganesh as the winner, for his extraordinary endurance and wisdom.
