But Lord Shiva was busy in his meditation so, did not care at the word of Raavan. Enraged much at this attitude of Lord Shiva, Raavan uprooted the mountain Kailash with his twenty hands. When Mata Parvati watched this action of Raavan, she became raged. But Lord Shiva noticed this scenerio in his meditation and he pressed down the mountain with his right feet toe. At the pressing of little side of toe, Ravana hand was crushed by the weight of the mountain. Raavan immediately accepted his fault before Lord Shiva and began to sing Stotram in praise of Lord Shiva. At the Stuti of Raavan, Lord Shiva was pleased and pardoned the fault of his Bhakta. Raavan sang the song from Sama Veda and this great stotra composed by him is called Raavan Stotram also.Product Code-ART_6175_35667
