One day, a sage came to that place in order to worship the Shiva Temple. Daily both of them used to worship the holy Shiva lingam by adorning flower garlands and also, they used to perform holy milk bath to the Shiva lingam. Nearby that cave, a small Shiva temple was located. Once there lived a hunter along with his wife at a cave in a mountain. Lord Shiva smiled at her and said, that he has appeared in a different form to her, in order to remove the worldly illusions from her mind! After seeing his divine form, Ma Mena had realised her mistake, and sought apology to her son-in-law Shiva. After knowing about this, when Rishi Narada prayed to Lord Shiva, the great Lord Shiva had shown his true form, in which, he has worn costly garments and ornaments, he look very handsome, and scented smell began to rise from his body. Ma Mena was very much shocked to see the strange appearance of Lord Shiva, and even she didn’t want the great Lord Shiva to become her son-in-law. Lord Shiva’s head contains matted hair, his body was applied with the sacred ash, his eyes look red in colour, and his body was covered with tiger’s skin.
