"I want a house Swami. I want to live in a lovely mansion, attended by Yoginis and playing with our children. Please grant me this wish" said Parvathi.
Shiva laughed. "Shakthi, who are you speaking to? Have you forgotten that you are talking to me, who is extolled as the yogi of yogis, who has achieved supreme control over his senses and who sees no difference between the luxurious and the mundane."
"I fully understand Swami, but it is you who does not understand my intentions for the goodness of this world. I want a house and I want it now." said Shakthi with a hint of finality.
Shiva realized the thought behind Shakthi's request and finally he gave his assent. Waving his hands in front of him he said, "Vishwakarma, I am in need of your help". Lo, before him stood the Devaloka Architect, with a chisel in one hand and a hammer in the other. He bowed to the divine couple and awaited his instructions.
"Vishwakarma, build me the best palace ever seen in this world so that Uma can have her desire satisfied." intoned Shiva.
In an instant Vishwakarma flew southwards and chose a beautiful spot on the island of Lanka. There he raised a magnificent structure, gleaming with gold and gems, cooled with water fountains and filled with the smell of many divine flowers in the garden, a palace that qualified to be the residence of the Mother of the three worlds.
Parvathi was extremely pleased with the outcome and wanted to perform the Griha Pravesha of this beautiful palace with the help of the best of the Brahmanas. Shiva and Shakthi came down to Lanka to find a suitable brahmana for the Grihapravesha. It was then that the distant but powerful chant of "Om Namah Shivaya" reached their ears. Following the divine sound they came to a place where they beheld a ten-headed man, performing austere tapasya invoking Shiva. Shiva smiled at Shakthi and then spoke out.
Realising that Ravana was the son of the great saint Vishravas and very well versed on all the four Vedas, Parvathi was suddenly sure that he would be the right brahmana to perform the Grihapravesha to her house. Ravana gladly accepted the invitation and set a date for the auspicious entry into the palace. (Ravana is believed to have been an authority in Astrology too and is said to have authored a separate book on Astrology titled Ravana Samhita)
On the prescribed date, Ravana performed the ceremony with much grandeur and splendor, with the correct usage of all the mantras and shlokas. Shiva and Parvathi entered their mansion and added further sanctity to the spot. Parvathi was extremely pleased with Ravana's prowess in the Vedas and offered him any boon that he wanted as dakshina for performing the ceremonies.
Shiva, however laughed silently besides Parvathi. "It is not proper for a Brahmana to ask what he wants for dakshina. He should be pleased with what the Yajamana or Yajamani gives him. However, as Shakthi herself offered you the boon, you may ask whatever you please."
Tum Se Tum Tak
