Indra Dev's request

Overview

Lord Vishnu and Maa Lakshmi in disguise tell the tale of the birth of Lord Karthikeya to Garud. The Devtas are elated after the reunion of Maa Parvati and Mahadev. Indra dev imagines the consequences of the birth of Mahadev and Parvati's child. The devatas request Mahadev that the child they want should only have 'ansh' of Mahadev and not of Maa Parvati. Mahadev grants the wish to the devatas but Maa Parvati curses the Devatas about the same.
