being smashing by Virupaksa stormy weapons...In the Nepal Vaism beleive Virupaksa wants to kill and smashing Lord Shiva

emblemst though ...without restraint.. until Lord Shiva seeking escape in terror and enormously in

endangered thus Buddha come to save Lord Shiva under a conceal of his holy crown..All and all as a

result of  cause and effect of Lord Shiva enrage penance of the duped obeisance Virupaksa  of being
