On seeing the lustrous Maṇigrīva the lord of Yakṣas, Menā was delighted and said—‘This is Śiva, the bridegroom of Pārvatī (śivāsvāmī)’. ‘This is not Śiva, the bridegroom of Pārvatī. He is only an attendant of Śiva’ said you to Menā, the wife of the mountain. By that time the god of fire passed by. On seeing his splendour twice that of Yakṣas, she said ‘This is Śiva, the bridegroom of Pārvatī’ but you said ‘No’. [...]”.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
