She vowed that she would always reincarnate as Shiva’s wife. In the following rebirths, Goddess Parvati performed severe and harsh penance spanning prolonged periods to obtain Lord Shiva as her husband, and pleased with her devotion, Lord Shiva took her as his wife during all of Goddess reincarnations.
