They were married for years but did not have any sons. For years they prayed to lord shiva to get a son in reward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally one day, Shiva appeared in front of them to bless them and he asked about what wishes they wished to get fulfilled. Without&nbsp; any second thought they asked him to grant them a son as reward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shiva gave them a choice to have a son who will be&nbsp; wise and virtuous but will be alive only for 16 years or a son who lives long but without any greatness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a very difficult choice for any parent to choose a baby with so short life. But after a painful moment of thought they choose the first option, which means they will have a son who will have a meaningful life even if it is short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-red-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/chikucab.com\/tempo-traveller-varanasi.html\">Book Tempo Traveller in Vranasi for Group Travel<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_To_Worship_Markandeya_Mahadev\"><\/span><strong>Why To Worship Markandeya Mahadev?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Markandeya Mahadev<\/strong> is a deity of <strong>Immortality. <\/strong>We know him, as a fierce energy of Lord Shiva was born from his anger for saving his little devotee from <strong>Yamaraja.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shiva<\/strong> himself&nbsp; is the protecting guardian of his devotees.
