BHADRAKALI DID NOTSTEPPED ON GOD SHIVA
TO PACIFY THE ANGER ->READ THIS->
There is a popular legend among many about Goddess BhadraKali, that after slaying the demon Daruka Devi becoming drunk on the blood of her victims and started destructive dance. As it would lead in to the destruction of the entire Universe , all beings prayed to Mahadev for help. To pacify Devis fury and save the world from an imminent danger Lord Shiva lies down in the way of BhadraKali s path . Fail to see MahaDev lying among the corpses the Devi stepped up on Lord Shivas chest . Immediately realizing Mahadev lies beneath her feet, her anger subdued . This has depicted in many pictures also . But the truth is that no such story can be found not only in the BhadraKali s legend but also not in Markandeya Purana. There is not even a narration in the Markandeya Purana which says that Lord Shiva welcomed his daughter by getting up from his seat then how could it possible that he lay on her path. BhadraKali is worshipped as the KulaDevatha(Goddess of the clan ) , as ParaDevatha (Goddessof the family) and as a temple deity by many others. So the story of Kali stepping up on the chest of lord Shiva must be some whimsical tale created by many who do not like Devis worship.There are various versions of story how goddessanger is pacified. The real version is like this. Devi ,who started from Kailas on top of the Vetala (ghost ) along with the Bhoota Ganas for theslaying of Demon Daruka, after winning the battle was returning towards the Kailas in highest fury . Understanding this fact through the divine vision Lord Shiva thought of pacifying the wrath of BhadraKali by invoking the motherly love in
her. To attain this he asked Lord Ganesh and NandiKesha to take the form of new born babies by Ashtavidhya and lie on the way of Kali.
This can be known from the verse 55 of Markandeya Purana , Bhadrothpathy. It says like this Lord Shiva told Nandi and Ganesh , u both take the forms of new born babies and lie down on the outside of the Gopura( Entrance to the temple). By seeing you both in the form of babies Bhadra will forget her fury.Thereafter to the Devas assembled there LordShiva uttered in this way My dearest Devas and reverent Sages do go to the inner side of the Gopura and start chanting Devi praising hymns.
Thus Lord Shiva employed Ganesh, Nandi, Bhootha Ganas, Deva and Sages to stand at the four entrances of the Mount Kailas as they were unaware through which way Devi will enter.
After slaying of the Demon Daruka Bhardra Kali reached the northern side of the Kailas with enormous Fury. Up on reaching the entrance she saw two lovely babies playing at the entrance of the Gopura. The innocence of the babies smile and play made Devi to forget her anger. She picked up those babies in her four arms and started fondling them. This is the same way in which now the -Thooka Vrathakaar-of the Kerala Bhadra Kali temple now carrying the babies during the rituals. This is how the anger of the Devi has been pacified .
