==Plot==
''Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev'' is a [[action]]- mythological-drama television series based on legends featuring the Hindu God [[Shiva]], also knows as Mahadev (the great god/GOD of GODS). The show narrates the most famous of these legends, sourced from the [[Puranas]] and the work of well known mythologist [[Devdutt Pattanaik]],in an episodic fashion.
The story starts with the tale of Shiva's marriage with [[Sati (goddess)|Sati]]. Sati is a partial incarnation of the Supreme Goddess and is born as the daughter of [[Prajapati]] [[Daksha]], who is a staunch devotee of [[Vishnu]]. She is drawn towards Shiva against the will of her father. Shiva and Sati get married and start living in Kailash. Soon after Daksha organises a ''[[yajna]]'' where all the gods except for Shiva are invited. Sati is distraught as this slight, and against Shiva's wishes, journeys to her parental home to question her father. Daksha, drunk on his own power and piety insults Shiva in front of Sati. Torn with remorse on having ignored her divine husband's wishes Sati gives up her body in the fires which emanate from her own body - ''pranagni''. The grief-striken Shiva produces an ''aaveshavatar'' an incarnation of a fierce mood[[Virabhadra]], who slays Daksha. Later, on hearing the prayers of Daksha's wife he restores Daksha's life. A distraught Shiva leaves with burnt corpse of Sati and wanders around the universe. Vishnu with the use of his divine discus dismembers the body into pieces, scattering them on earth. Shiva transforms the pieces into [[Shakti Peetha]]s, embodiments of the power of the Goddess [[Adi Shakti]].
