Chapter Eighteen·Śiva's Journey to Dakṣa's House·Verses 1–37
अथाष्टादशोऽध्यायः
Brahmā returns to Kailāsa to find Śiva, out of love for Satī, doubting again and again whether she will really be given to him. Adopting an entirely worldly manner, Śiva presses Brahmā anxiously for Dakṣa's answer, confessing that separation now torments him as it would any ordinary man, since Satī is not different from himself. Brahmā reassures him with Dakṣa's own words: the daughter was fashioned for Śiva alone, this is Dakṣa's own dearest wish, Satī herself worshipped Śiva expressly to this end, and Dakṣa asks only that Śiva come to his house at an auspicious hour to receive her as a bride. Delighted, Śiva agrees to go at once with Brahmā and Nārada, and has Brahmā summon Nārada, the mind-born sages headed by Marīci, and his own gaṇas; Viṣṇu, remembered by Śiva, arrives at once with Lakṣmī on Garuḍa. On the appointed date — the thirteenth of bright Caitra, a Sunday, under the Pūrva Phalgunī constellation — Śiva sets out in procession with the full company of gods and sages, his emblematic attributes serving as ornaments for the occasion, and, mounted on his bull, swiftly reaches Dakṣa's house. Dakṣa comes out with all his household to receive them, honours every god in turn, seats Śiva in the place of highest honour, personally worships him and then Viṣṇu, Brahmā, the brahmins, the gods and the gaṇas, and, after taking counsel with the mind-born sages, asks Brahmā to officiate the marriage rites. Brahmā agrees and conducts the whole ceremony; at the auspicious moment Dakṣa gives Satī to Śambhu, and Śiva takes her hand according to the rite of marriage. All present — Brahmā, Viṣṇu, the sages, the gods, the gaṇas — bow and offer hymns of praise, and a great festival of song and dance follows, filling everyone with supreme joy. Dakṣa, having given away his daughter, feels his life's purpose fulfilled; Śiva and Śivā are both well pleased, and, as Brahmā closes the chapter, everything becomes an abode of pure auspiciousness.ब्रह्मा जी कैलास लौटते हैं और पाते हैं कि सती के प्रेमवश शिव जी बार-बार यह संशय कर रहे हैं कि क्या उन्हें सती वास्तव में मिलेंगी। पूर्णतः लौकिक व्यवहार अपनाते हुए शिव जी व्याकुल होकर ब्रह्मा जी से दक्ष के उत्तर के विषय में पूछते हैं और स्वीकार करते हैं कि सती से अभिन्न होते हुए भी वियोग उन्हें एक सामान्य प्राणी की भाँति पीड़ित कर रहा है। ब्रह्मा जी दक्ष के ही शब्दों में उन्हें आश्वस्त करते हैं — कन्या केवल शिव जी के लिये ही रची गयी है, यही दक्ष की सबसे प्रिय इच्छा है, सती ने स्वयं इसी उद्देश्य से शिव जी की आराधना की थी, और दक्ष केवल यही चाहते हैं कि शिव जी शुभ मुहूर्त में उनके घर पधारकर कन्या को ग्रहण करें। प्रसन्न होकर शिव जी तुरन्त ब्रह्मा तथा नारद के साथ चलने को सहमत हो जाते हैं और ब्रह्मा जी से नारद, मरीचि आदि मानसपुत्र मुनियों तथा अपने गणों को बुलाने के लिये कहते हैं। शिव जी के स्मरण करते ही विष्णु भी लक्ष्मी सहित गरुड़ पर आरूढ़ होकर तुरन्त आ पहुँचते हैं। नियत तिथि — चैत्र शुक्ल त्रयोदशी, रविवार, पूर्वाफाल्गुनी नक्षत्र — को शिव जी देवताओं तथा मुनियों की पूरी मण्डली के साथ यात्रा पर निकलते हैं, उनके विशिष्ट चिह्न ही इस अवसर के लिये आभूषण बन जाते हैं, और बैल पर आरूढ़ होकर वे शीघ्र ही दक्ष के घर पहुँच जाते हैं। दक्ष अपने समस्त परिवार सहित उनका स्वागत करने आते हैं, प्रत्येक देवता का सत्कार करते हैं, शिव जी को सर्वोच्च आसन देकर स्वयं उनका तथा विष्णु, ब्रह्मा, ब्राह्मणों, देवताओं और गणों का पूजन करते हैं, और मानसपुत्र मुनियों से परामर्श करने के बाद ब्रह्मा जी से विवाह-कार्य सम्पन्न कराने का अनुरोध करते हैं। ब्रह्मा जी सहमत होकर सम्पूर्ण विधि सम्पन्न कराते हैं; शुभ मुहूर्त में दक्ष सती को शम्भु को अर्पित करते हैं, और शिव जी विवाहविधि से उनका पाणिग्रहण करते हैं। उपस्थित सभी — ब्रह्मा, विष्णु, मुनि, देवता, गण — प्रणामकर स्तुति करते हैं, तथा गायन-नृत्य सहित महान् उत्सव होता है, जिससे सभी परम आनन्द से भर जाते हैं। कन्यादान करके दक्ष अपने जीवन को कृतार्थ मानते हैं; शिव तथा शिवा दोनों प्रसन्न होते हैं, और अध्याय के अन्त में ब्रह्मा जी के अनुसार सब कुछ मंगल का धाम बन जाता है।
