Salutations to Lord Daksha!
Salutations.
Salutations, Father!
May you have a long life.
May you always succeed.
[music playing]
Gods, Sages, Demons, Priests
all creatures on this planet
bow their head to me.
They bow in veneration.
But, he...
This vagabond who lives amidst ghosts and spirits
is sitting as if
he's the wisest man on this planet.
[music playing]
Why isn't he bowing down to me?
Calm down, Lord Daksha.
Lord, he's in deep meditation.
I hope he doesn't get distracted.
Sage!
Someone who can't respect the Lord of creatures
what value does his meditation hold?
How does his concentration matter?
[music playing]
He lives in a cemetery and dares to sit shamelessly in front of me.
There is only one reason behind it.
He is not virtuous.
[music playing]
'He, who is the essence of the scriptures'
'This is so humiliating for him.'
'The one who created the universe.'
'Lord Daksha is being so rude to him.'
'If Lord Shiva wakes up from his meditation'
'the consequences will be bad.'
[music playing]
'Lord Daksha is so foolish.'
'He is insulting my Lord.'
'I feel like putting an end to his ego right away.'
He reeks of ego and satiety.
[music playing]
That's why as the Lord of creatures
and guardian of virtues
I will have to punish him for this arrogance.
[music playing]
What are you saying?
While talking about Lord Shiva
you should've refrained from using such crude words.
You should've thought
about what's right and wrong.
No, Father.
Such disrespect to the circle can't be pardoned.
That ash-smeared vagabond has not
insulted me but the order.
I will follow my duty now.
Shiva!
I will curse you.
Till eternity
you will be excluded from all rituals.
In any ritual conducted by gods
you won't get your part.
[thundering]
Lord Shiva
got cursed to be excluded from all rituals.
Yes, Mushak. Anger makes people impulsive.
Like, when someone is upset
they get reluctant to participate in something good.
Like the priest's wife was reluctant to listen to the story.
But the positivity in auspicious tasks
attracts people to it.
What happened next?
[music playing]
Sister.
Come in.
[music playing]
'My wife is here to listen to the story.'
'She never meets strangers.'
[music playing]
Because of that curse did Lord Shiva
behead Daksha?
[music playing]
Lord, is that why Shiva
beheaded Daksha?
No, Mushak. Lord Shiva is an eternal yogi.
Whether anybody insults him or appreciates him
it doesn't matter to him.
If anything matters
then it is the love and dedication of his devotees.
Everybody present there
protested against Daksha's curse.
Daksha.
Are you aware of whom you're cursing?
He is Lord Shiva.
He is the other half of Shakti.
Your curse
derives its power from him.
[music playing]
Daksha, anger gives birth to foolishness.
And you
haven't cursed Lord Shiva.
You've done worse.
[music playing]
Foolish Daksh!
The one whose name completes any ritual.
The one whose name can make everything immaculate.
How dare you exclude him from the rituals?
[music playing]
He creates and preserves the universe.
Everything amalgamates with him.
From participating in rituals
you have dared to exclude him.
[music playing]
What kind of Lord are you?
You are unaware of Lord Shiva's glory.
You're mouthy.
Useless animal!
You're just like your Lord.
[music playing]
You're all uncouth.
Today, I
will punish you for your arrogance.
From today, all of you
will be excluded from the scriptures.
[thundering]
Because of this, you will
always be unsuccessful in all your efforts.
This is my curse!
[thundering]
Revenge does not resonate Lord Shiva.
He is beyond appreciation and insults.
But those who are devoted to Lord Shiva
can't bear his humiliation.
In anger, Daksha
insulted Lord Shiva's favourite devotee
and vehicle, Nandi.
You're so arrogant despite being Lord Brahma's son.
You have proven, Daksha
that your wisdom is nothing compared to Lord Shiva.
[music playing]
Listen to me, arrogant Daksha.
Today, you will
and all those present here
who didn't stop Lord Shiva from being humiliated.
All of you
by me, Shiva devotee, Nandi
will be cursed.
All of you
will lose your knowledge of the scriptures.
[thundering]
[music playing]
Forever
you will be trapped in pleasures.
You will consider heaven to be the supreme place.
Anger, pleasure and addiction will trap you
and reduce you to a beggar.
[music playing]
You all will be trapped in this for eternity.
You will suffer in hell for this.
[music playing]
Arrogant Daksha!
The mouth that
cursed my Lord Shiva
will not remain one day.
[thundering]
A goat's head will replace it.
This is a devotee's curse.
[music playing]
[laughs]
A cock's crow
doesn't cause sunrise.
For someone who doesn't follow his duties
how will his curse come true?
[music playing]
Nandi was insulted again.
Lord Shiva must've
punished Daksha for sure.
Hmm.
I've never witnessed such devotion
or heard of it.
You're great, Nandi.
By the grace of Goddess.
[conch blows]
You're right, Sir.
I wish to be
so devoted to my Lord.
[music playing]
Tell me more.
Nandi's rising anger
woke up Lord Shiva.
Lord Shiva couldn't bear his devotee's humiliation.
He came out of his meditative state.
The consequence of this arrogance shown by Daksha
was feared by everyone present there.
'What will Lord Shiva do?'
'Daksha shouldn't have disturbed Lord Shiva.'
[music playing]
'What will Lord Shiva do now?'
'I hope it's not disastrous.'
[music playing]
[thundering]
[bangs]
[music playing]
You're angry with me
because I didn't bow down to you.
[music playing]
But I didn't know
whom to bow down to?
[music playing]
Your golden crown
fine silk clothes
the body adorned with jewels
or the soul within.
Don't be disrespectful, Shiva.
The body and soul are not separate.
But your body, clothes, and jewels
are mortal, Daksha.
The body is reduced to ashes after being burnt.
But the soul within the body
takes up a new form.
[music playing]
So, tell me.
Whom should I bow down to?
Oh.
You're trying to confuse me with the body-soul duality.
You're arguing with me.
But, I will answer it.
[music playing]
You should've bowed down to my soul, Shiva.
[music playing]
But the soul is a part of
every atom of this creation.
The soul within you
is within Lord Brahma
within me
and within Nandi too.
[music playing]
What does this mean?
We're not separate.
[music playing]
I'm a part of you.
You're a part of me.
There is no duality.
We are all one.
So, Daksha
shall I bow down to you or myself?
[song playing]
'What a brilliant discourse by Lord Shiva!'
'In this state, Daksha can't comprehend this.'
[song playing]
Did you understand?
Who do you think you've cursed, you fool?
Nandi!
[music playing]
You're not acting any different.
You are also
looking at all of us as separate entities.
In the present order of things
I'm your Lord
and you're my devotee.
Beyond this body
within Daksha, me
and you, there is no difference.
[song playing]
How could you forget, Nandi
that I'm the ritual
and I'm the consequence of it.
[music playing]
I am every part of the ritual.
I'm the soul of the ritual.
I'm the participant and the host.
[music playing]
I'm excluded from the ritual.
Then why are we referring to different entities?
[music playing]
The truth is that
in everything
I'm there.
[music playing]
Forgive me, Lord.
Forgive me.
I made a mistake.
Realisation tidies the heart.
[song playing]
In anger, one doesn't realise.
In anger, Lord Shiva's wise words
seemed rude to Daksha.
In his heart
hatred rooted itself deeply.
I will surely avenge this, pretentious vagabond.
