One of our favourite stories is how the ‘Rockstar-God’ Shiva fell in love with Parvati. Having lost his wife Sati, Shiva had gone into deep meditation. Taking advantage of the situation, the Demon Tarakasura sought Brahma’s boon, with the clause that only a son of Shiva could overpower him.
Meanwhile, Parvati (Sati reborn) had been trying to get Shiva’s attention, but with little success. That’s when the Gods (led by Indra) summoned Kamdev, the Indian Cupid.
Kamdev accepted this dangerous mission (who wants to arouse Shiva’s wrath…?!) and set off!
Realizing Kamdev to be the cause for his broken meditation, Shiva in an angry avatar, reduced Kamdev to ashes. Kamdev’s consort Rati was understandably aghast at the situation, and inconsolable. So Shiva attempted to resurrect Kamdev, but only in a non-body form. And since then, LOVE has existed as a feeling!
