रुद्रसंहिता — सतीखण्डअथ प्रथमोऽध्यायः
Nārada, praising Brahmā's knowledge, asks him to tell the tale of Rudra's own incarnation, his marriage, and how Satī died and was reborn as Pārvatī. Sūta notes that Brahmā, pleased, replied. Brahmā tells, in brief: his own past infatuation with his daughter Sandhyā and Rudra's rebuke of it; his jealous scheming against Śiva afterwards, which even Viṣṇu's counsel could not end; his causing, through Śakti, his son Dakṣa's wife Asiknī to bear a daughter — Somā, or Umā — who wins Rudra as her husband through hard tapas; Dakṣa's later rivalry with and contempt for Śiva, itself worked by Śiva's own māyā; Dakṣa's sacrifice, to which Rudra, and pointedly his own daughter Satī, are not invited; Satī's uninvited attendance, her disgrace before the assembly, and her giving up her body in anger; Rudra's unbearable rage, the birth of Vīrabhadra from his own plucked-out jaṭā, and the destruction of the sacrifice and beheading of Dakṣa; the gods' lament that no happiness is possible while Rudra is angered, their praise, Rudra's relenting, Dakṣa's revival, and the sacrifice redone with Rudra specially honoured; the flame born of Satī's body becoming the goddess Jvālāmukhī, worshipped still; and finally Satī's rebirth as Pārvatī, daughter of Himālaya, who through hard tapas of her own wins Śiva again as her husband. This chapter opens the Satī-khaṇḍa of the Rudra Saṃhitā. नारद जी ब्रह्मा जी के ज्ञान की प्रशंसा करते हुए उनसे रुद्र के अवतार, उनके विवाह तथा सती के देहत्याग और पार्वतीरूप में पुनर्जन्म की कथा सुनाने का अनुरोध करते हैं। सूत जी बताते हैं कि ब्रह्मा जी प्रसन्नचित्त होकर उत्तर देने लगे। ब्रह्मा जी संक्षेप में बताते हैं — अपनी पुत्री संध्या के प्रति अपने पूर्वकालीन मोह और रुद्र द्वारा उसकी भर्त्सना; तत्पश्चात् शिव के विरुद्ध अपनी ईर्ष्यायुक्त युक्तियाँ, जिन्हें विष्णु का समझाना भी नहीं रोक सका; शक्ति की आराधना द्वारा अपने पुत्र दक्ष की पत्नी असिक्नी से एक कन्या — सोमा अथवा उमा — को उत्पन्न कराना, जो कठिन तपस्या से रुद्र को पति रूप में प्राप्त करती हैं; तत्पश्चात् दक्ष की रुद्र से स्पर्धा तथा शिव की अवमानना, जो स्वयं शिव की माया से ही उत्पन्न हुई थी; दक्षका यज्ञ, जिसमें रुद्र को और स्वयं उनकी पुत्री सती को भी विशेष रूप से आमन्त्रित नहीं किया जाता; सती का अनाहूत जाना, वहाँ अपमानित होना, तथा क्रोधवश अपने शरीर का त्याग करना; रुद्र का असह्य क्रोध, अपनी उखाड़ी हुई जटा से वीरभद्र की उत्पत्ति, तथा यज्ञका ध्वंस एवं दक्षका वध; देवताओं का यह विलाप कि रुद्र के रुष्ट रहते सुख सम्भव नहीं, उनकी स्तुति, रुद्र का प्रसन्न होना, दक्ष का पुनर्जीवन, तथा रुद्र के विशेष सम्मान सहित यज्ञ का पुनः सम्पन्न होना; सती के शरीर से उत्पन्न ज्वाला का ज्वालामुखी देवी के रूप में आजतक पूजित होना; और अन्त में सती का हिमालयकी पुत्री पार्वतीके रूप में पुनर्जन्म, जो अपनी कठोर तपस्या से पुनः शिव को पति रूप में प्राप्त करती हैं। यही अध्याय रुद्रसंहिताके सतीखण्डका आरम्भ करता है।

शिवतत्त्व को दिखानेवाले भगवान् विष्णु द्वारा समझाये जाने पर भी मोहित मैं अपनी ईर्ष्या और हठ को नहीं छोड़ सका।
Though enlightened by Rameśa, who revealed the truth of Śiva to me, I, deluded, did not abandon that envy and obstinacy.

Having married her, he came to his own mountain, with her who bore his children, and, self-controlled though much bewildered by love, with a form all his own, sported freely.

तदनन्तर किसी निजी इच्छा के कारण रुद्र की दक्ष से स्पर्धा हो गयी। उस समय शिव की माया से दक्ष अत्यन्त मूढ़ तथा अहंकार से युक्त हो गया।
Then, of his own will, a rivalry arose between Rudra and Dakṣa — Dakṣa, greatly deluded by that māyā, most arrogant, exceedingly foolish.

उसी प्रभाव से महान् अहंकारी, मूढ़बुद्धि और अत्यन्त विमोहित हुआ वह दक्ष उन महाशान्त तथा निर्विकार भगवान् हर की निन्दा करने लगा।
By that influence, Dakṣa, greatly proud, utterly deluded in mind, exceedingly bewildered, reviled Hara, the most tranquil, the unchanging.

इस प्रकार क्रोध से भरे हुए उसने रुद्र को नहीं बुलाया, और विधि से मोहित होकर उसने अपनी पुत्री सती को भी वहाँ आमन्त्रित नहीं किया।
Being thus, filled with anger, he did not invite Rudra; and, deluded by fate, he did not invite there his own daughter, named Satī, either.

और वहाँ रुद्र के भाग को न पाकर तथा अपमान पाकर, उसने वहाँ उपस्थित सबकी निन्दा करके अपने शरीर का त्याग कर दिया।
And, seeing that Rudra had no share there, and having received disrespect, she reviled them all, and then gave up her body.
