Synopsis

Lord Shiva instructed the sages to undertake worship for the liberation of Parvati. As this was being done, Malla set out to challenge Aghora, and the Lord of the Sky was unable to prevent his departure. Mani offered prayers to Kali for Malla's triumph. Meanwhile, the sages prayed for Parvati's gentle manifestation, while Mani prayed for her in her wrathful form.
