PRELIMS
Except Holikadahan this is another reason behind the orizin of holi. When Lord Shiva's wife Sati

extremely sad. He renounced his worldly duties and went into deep meditation. Meanwhile, the daughter
of the mountains, Parvati started meditating to acquire Shiva as her husband. Moreover, since
Shiva was least interested in the affairs of the world complications which made all the gods concerned and afraid. The gods then sought the help of X to
bring Shiva back to his original self. As planned X shot his arrow on Shiva while he was in meditation. This made Shiva extremely angry and
he opened his third eye - reducing X burned to ashes. ID X.
