[sombre music plays]
Sati!
[dramatic music plays]
[sombre music plays]
Sati.
[dramatic music plays]
[sombre music plays]
'The truth is, '
'I don't like it without you, Lord Shiva!'
'Hunger, thirst, and sleep, these necessaties'
'seem baseless to me.'
'Where is Lord Shiva taking Sati?'
'Who knows what crises this universe will have to face.'
'You are a part of me, Lord Shiva.'
'I too want to be an integral part of your life.'
[dramatic music plays]
I am still confused.
When Lord Shiva helped everyone recover,
then why not Sati?
Because Goddess Sati had announced
that she no longer wished to live as the daughter of Daksha.
She had committed a crime by going to her father's house
without being invited.
She chose this punishment for her mistake.
Lord Shiva had to respect her decision.
[suspenseful music plays]
[conch playing]
Where is Lord Shiva going?
I don't have the answer to this question.
And neither does Lord Brahma,
Lord Vishnu,
or himself.
[dramatic music plays]
I fear
that even time fears
where he is headed.
What will Lord Shiva do?
[dramatic music plays]
'I have always offered.'
'But now, I want to surrender myself.
'I have already taken you for my husband, Lord Shiva.'
'Will you accept me as your wife?'
'This garland'
'will be adorned by Lord Shiva only.'
'The power of my love will bring Lord Shiva to me.'
'As long as I am here, you will never be alone, Sati.
'You are a part of me, '
'and I am a part of you.'
[dramatic music plays]
Forgive me, my dear.
I couldn't save you.
Now, it is too late.
I cannot do much even if I want to, my dear.
I am Shiva!
But today, I am as good as a corpse.
[thundering]
I am helpless!
I couldn't even resurrect the one I love.
I cannot tamper with time.
I cannot stop you from attending the 'yagna'.
What should I do, dear?
What should I do?
[thundering]
'Lord Shiva!'
'My Swami.'
'How will you manage without me?'
[dramatic music plays]
'Who will serve you now?'
[dramatic music plays]
[cracking sound]
[thundering]
[conch plays]
'The pain of separating with Goddess Sati'
'has made Lord Shiva perform the divine dance '
'for so many years as a way to express his suffering.'
[dramatic music plays]
[thundering]
'If Lord Shiva doesn't stop'
'there will be a problem.'
[thundering]
Through His divine dance.
He has expressed the pain He is going through.
He couldn't say it.
Lord Shiva who is determined and non-attached
couldn't control himself after Sati passed away.
He performed the divine dance for many years non-stop.
The end was nearing.
To stop the blasphemous he couldn't
stop himself.
But Lord Shiva's divine dance could destroy the universe.
In that case, he had to stop.
Yes, mother. How did he stop?
How did Lord Shiva's divine dance stop?
[dramatic music plays]
Lord Brahma! Lord Vishnu!
Only you can help.
Please do something.
Come up with a solution and
stop Him from dancing which will cause death and destruction.
Lord Shiva is free from attachment and illusion.
But he cannot let go of the death of Sati.
[dramatic music plays]
The pain has made him succumb to illusion.
He has forgotten
that the body can be destroyed,
but Sati has already merged with him.
We need to remind him of that.
But Lord Vishnu, it is impossible to stop Lord Shiva
without Shakti!
[dramatic music plays]
Lord Vishnu, you are our only hope.
You are the one who can come up with a solution to this problem.
[dramatic music plays]
[thundering]
[conch playing]
[dramatic music plays]
'Don't hurt yourself so much, Friend.'
[dramatic music plays]
'Forgive me.'
'I have to do this to protect this universe.'
'I have no other solution to this.'
[dramatic music plays]
[thundering]
[dramatic music plays]
Sati!
[dramatic music plays]
Sati!
[echoes]
[thundering]
Forgive me, Lord Shiva.
Your divine dance was destroying the universe.
I had to take this difficult decision
to save lives.
[dramatic music plays]
The places where the parts of Goddess Sati's body fell
will be known as The Shakti Pitha.
[dramatic music plays]
The devotees will worship Her for eternity.
They will chant her name,
look after Her,
and serve Her.
If a devotee genuinely
worships the 51 Shakti Pitha
his or her prayers
will be answered for sure.
The primordial power, Goddess Sati will bless that person herself.
[dramatic music plays]
'Our journey ends here, Lord Shiva.'
'I am bidding goodbye, by holding an image of you'
'close to me.'
'Please forgive me if you can.'
After Goddess Sati's body parts were scattered all over
his divine dance stopped.
But Lord Shiva couldn't become normal again.
He detached himself from everyone
and was in a state of deep meditative contemplation.
[dramatic music plays]
Detaching himself wasn't in the best interest of the universe.
Because Lord Shiva's and Goddess Shakti's balance
is what balances the universe.
When they were separated from each other
the universe is devoid of energy.
Crime increases.
Evil starts to emerge.
And destruction is inevitable.
This time too, Lord Shiva and Goddess Shakti's separation
was evident in no time.
The demons got a chance to take over.
And there was a powerful demon.
Tarakasura.
Just like the other demons, to gain powers he performed
a severe penance to appease Lord Brahma.
[dramatic music plays]
[chanting]
[dramatic music plays]
Your penance has been completed Tarakasura.
[dramatic music plays]
Greetings, Lord Brahma.
May you always prosper.
Tell me.
What boon do you want?
I just expect one boon from you, Lord Brahma.
That may I live in this body for eternity.
May I be immortal.
That is impossible.
What you are asking for
cannot be given
to anyone in this.
Universe.
Other than wanting to be immortal
ask for something else.
In that case, I want You to give me the boon
that I can be
slain by Lord Shiva's offspring.
It has to be His son.
[dramatic music plays]
So be it!
'Finally. My wish
has been fulfilled.'
[evil laughter]
Despite of your unwillingness,
you made me immortal, Lord Brahma!
[laughter]
Lord Shiva's wife is no more.
And Lord Shiva has detached himself from everyone
and is in a deep meditative contemplation.
[evil laughter]
How will he even bear a child like this?
And how will someone who won't take birth kill me?
[evil laughter]
