what can i do so that my spiritual can grow? i know how to pray, jaap but are there also other ways to feel the energy of god/ shiv?
i do believe in fasting for ur istadev.

As per best of my knowledge, this differs from person to person. Standard rules are same like meditation, prayer. It is same like starting a relation, which grows with time, some times it takes various births. For some their conscious efforts takes them ahead, where as for some unconsciously spirituality becomes a way of life. This depends on our karmas but there are very limited ways to know our karma's account. Best is surrender to God, ask them only to guide you & you will find the correct path.
I like Sati's story because we got 51 Shakti-peethas, where different part of her body fell. If you visit any one of them, you can feel a high energy field over there. Which indicates Shakti is active over there.

She was married to the demon-king jalandhar. Due to her piety and devotion to Vishnu(narayana), her husband became invincible. Even god Shiva,the destroyer in the Hindu Trinitycould not defeat Jalandhar and fight goes between god shiva and demon jalandhar went for many years, So Shiva(supreme god) requested Vishnu - the preserver in the Trinity. - to find a solution. Vishnu disguised himself as Jalandhar and violated Vrinda. Her chastity destroyed, Jalandhar was killed by Shiva. Vrinda cursed Vishnu to become black in colour and he would be separated from his wife. Thus, he was transformed into the blackshaligram shilasand in his Ramaavatar, his wife Sitawas kidnapped by a demon-king and thus separated from him. Vrinda then burnt herself on her husband's funeral pyre or immolated herself due to the shame. The gods or Vishnu transferred her soul to a plant, henceforth which was called as Tulsi. As per a blessing by Vishnu to marry Vrinda in her next birth, Vishnu in form of Shaligram - married Tulsi on Prabodhini Ekadashi. To commemorate this event, theceremony of tulasi bivah/vivah/marraige ceremony is performed.</

Wasnt tulsi, radha, rukmini also an incarnation of goddess lakshmi ? ? and plz tell me that vishnu doesnt violate anyone !? As both a shiv and vishnu bakht i find it shocking

Yeah humans have become quite intolerable in the 4th yuga. During the satya yuga humans could see the gods the most often as it was a golden age. The Dharma bull, which symbolises morality, stood on all four legs during satya period. Later in the Treta Yuga it would become three, and two in the later Dvapara Yuga. Currently, in the immoral age of Kali, it stands on one leg. its really impossible for anyone being to see god during this yuga, let alone humans

Was Lord Shiva aware of the fact that Sati was actually the Shakti and that He was destined to marry Her one day? If so then why was He trying to avoid this fact esp Sati? Why?

One question from my side...
which scriptures mention the story of Shiva and Sati/Parvati?
is there any book like the Ramayan which actually has a proper scripture of what happened!?

In Devi purana by Ved Vyas,which has 4500 shlokas, it is mentioned about Goddess Jagadamba, Sati, Parvati, Ganga, Mahakali, 51 Shakti peethas & briefly about Ram, Krishna
Devi Bhagavat, Shiv mahapurana too has this story along with other puranas but every puran tells the story from their main deity's pov.
This show's entire story in a single book is not there, because other character's stories are found from different other sources. Mainly all significant characters & myths connected with Shivji & Sati is shown in the show, so it has to be a good compilation of many stories. We wil have to know them from different sources only.

I believe that Devi Bhagvatam has that as well, although I'd have to dig to find out where, given that the chapters are rather unmarked

2.Since Shivji was a trikal darshi...He must have seen His future..from that couldnt He know about the role of devi Sati in His life?

well..as far as i know...Radha is Krishna's shakti..she herself is the krishna...both are one soul two bodies! that is the reason in brindavan there is a temple where Radha donning krishna's attire is worshipped ..cause a story goes like this...once Radha out of fun wore Krishna's attire..everyone who saw Radha mistook her for Krishna...😊
And devi Rukmani is an avatar of Goddess Lakshmi.

Some also believe that wives of Krishna are only the reflections of Radha..they are the various moods of Radha..and Lord feels Radha's presence through them.

It is believed that Radha took birth just to show the world that devotion towards Lord is above everything..it is the eternal love. just like Hanuman to Lord Rama.

And.Vishnu violating??didnt get your question..sorry..could you please repeat again in details as of what exactly you want to know?😊

By Violating-it means that VishnuJi took form of Vrindas husband Jalandhar,and stayed with Vrinda for about a year...in those times a woman staying with another man-not her husband was regarded to be impure,hence by ruining her purity he manged to finsh jalandhar,so that is how he violated her!
