I think by acceptance, he will assure the devatas and narad et al, be calm dudes, i will marry her eventually, but only when u r thoroughly harassed by taaki and I have had my revenge ( of making parvati do ghor tapasya and run from mountain to mountain the same way she made me do as sati)

BUT, no matter what puran they follow or create, I want to see shivji dressed as a hunter coming to parvati and dissing himself and testing her. Thats the most romantic part of kumarsamvabam.

I thought he comes as an ascetic? pretty sure that 's what the Kumarasambhava says. Was just re-reading it a few days ago!

But others have mentioned hunter too...wonder if there's another version? I have always heard/read Brahmin ascetic..

*edited*

yup just double-checked. See Kumarasambhavam Canto 5 verse 30.

i just read the translation so yeah there can be error coz in popular versions of bengal shiva comes as kirat.

You know more so you might be able to tell me if i am wrong or right but isnt kirat also used for the aghori type sages as well? because i have read that shiva comes as kirat to test parvati. Now commonly kirat is used for hunter, but knowing the limitations of translation😕 : Correct me please

I don't know about kirat guyz. But I had heard that he comes as an old brahmin and tests parvati. Even ONS had shown an old brahmin. And ONS was highly based on texts, less creativity.
