Shakti comes back:

Many years have passed since Shiv went in Samadhi, was compeletely detached from the world.  An important part of his own world had left him, there was only Shiv, no Shakti. But how long can Shakti be separated from Shiv.  

In Shiv's absence an Asura named Taraka, became very powerful, he defeated  Devatas, won the Swarga from Indra. Devatas who were living happily in Swarga, had to take shelter in forest. Unable to bear such condition they prayed to Aadya Shakti. Hearing their desperate plea, she appeared before them. She told them not to worry, very soon she will take birth as Himavan & Mena's daughter, will get Shiv out of this state. World will change once again. Himavan was present too along with Devatas. He felt higly blessed hearing this. He asked her how should I behave, when you will be born as my daughter? Adya Shakti replied, this will be my Purna-avatar, the main aim is to unite with Shiv, this time forever. Do not ever forget that. Himavan said I'll always respect & fulfill all your wishes, will never object or stop you from achieving your aim. Pleased with his words Adya Shakti disappeared.

Parvati was the name of this new life of Adya Shakti, as Himavan & Mena's daughter. This name was given by Narad when he came to see the new born baby. She radiated divinity. Entire kingdom was filled with her divine radiance.  Since childhood she liked to pray to Shiv, like her Parents, who were themselves Shiv-bhaktas. She had Jaya & Vijaya as her friends. All of them played together, they helped Parvati with her Shiv worship too.

Some more years passed by. For Mena  & Himavan those years were like few months, they never realized how time had passed so fast, their daughter had turned 16 now. Mena started thinking about her marriage. Parvati was very different from other girls of her age. She learned everything taught to her much faster compared to others. Himavan told her not to worry about her marriage as destiny must have planned something good for Parvati.

At that moment Narad came to meet Himavan. He reminded Himavan, what was the main aim of Parvati's birth.

One day Parvati with Jaya & Vijaya, while roaming in the mountains, found a bright radiance coming from a cave. They followed the radiance, as they went near the cave, it was difficult for Jaya & Vijaya  to bear the brightness, only Parvati was unaffected by this light. She went inside the cave. Nandi was standing at the entrance, he recognized Parvati as Himavan's daughter, was surprised why the heat, brightness of Shiv's penance had no effect on Parvati.

Inside the cave, Parvati saw Shiv in Samadhi. She kept on looking at him, was mesmarised by his calm unaffected state. Nandi requested her not to disturb Shiv. Parvati agreed but told him, she will come back again.
