During the creation of the world byaccording to Lord Brahma, [[AdiVishnu]] Parashakti|Adiand ShaktiLord [[Brahma]], Adi Parashakti leaves Shiva from his [[Ardhanarishvara]] form. In order to shape the universe, she takes various births to marry Shiva but fails 106 times due to which Shiva becomes an ascetic. Hence [[Lord Brahma]] suggests his mind-born son Prajapati Daksh to please Adi Shakti and request her to incarnate as his daughter.

Adi ShaktiParashakti is born the 107th time as Daksh's daughter [[Sati (Hindu goddess)|Sati]]. Meanwhile, Shiva cuts off Brahma's fifth head making Daksh hate him. Sati falls for Shiva and finally marries him, much to Daksh's dismay. Hence, Daksh humiliates Shiva in front of Sati in his yagna. Unable to tolerate her husband's insult, Sati sacrifices her life once again. An infuriated Shiva orders [[Virabhadra]] to behead Daksh. Later, he revives him at Prasuti's request and goes into deep meditation for centuries.

Adi ShaktiParashakti then incarnatesis born as [[Parvati]], the 108th time as the daughter of Himavan and his wife Menavati. She is aware of her divinity as are her parents, and grows up in Dadichi's hermitage. SinceFrom heran early age, she starts addressing Mahadev/Shiva as her husband which Menavati, as a concerned mother, dislikes strongly.

When she grows up, Parvati tries to make Mahadev realize that she is none other than his wife Sati reincarnated. But he rejects her and in the process, turns Kamadev into ashes. As a result, Kama's distraught wife, Rati curses Parvati.

Parvati then agrees to marry as per her mother, Menavati's wish. However eventually Parvati and Himavan make Menavati realise who Parvati is, after which she gives in.
