Hey Gurudev, as far as I can remember, Sati did married Shiva with out her father’s approval. Her father wanted her to marry Vishnu. It was after their marriage that during a Yaga(sorry miss spelled) her father humiliated Shiva and it was then she died. And yes Devi Parvati is the re-incarnation of Sati Dev per Swastani. And hey Bathroom, since when did you started being funny bro? Aren’t you suppose to be the Sajha Police and check whose posting is wrong and cruse him/her. Can’t believe this same guy is making fun of shiva linga, when couple of month ago he was talking about emotions on Muhammad cartoon and defending Taliban on destroying old Buddha statue.
