The episode opens with Lord Shiva expressing that he finally understands the pain Devi Parvati has been going through. Meanwhile, Narad tells Lord Narayan that both Shiva and Shakti are suffering. He wonders where Lord Shiva’s reflection is taking the villagers. In response, Lord Narayan asks Narad if he has ever been married. Narad admits he hasn’t, so Lord Narayan explains that he may not understand a husband’s emotions and tells him to simply wait and watch.
Elsewhere, the villagers are confused about Lord Shiva’s whereabouts. Then, they notice Devi Parvati and recognize her presence as divine. The sacred “Om Namah Shivaya” chant plays in the background. One of the ladies realizes that Lord Shiva brought them here to help treat Devi Parvati’s wounds. But Parvati refuses any treatment, saying she doesn’t need it.
However, the lady reminds her that she is the Jagatjanani (Mother of the Universe), and asks why she wouldn’t allow them to care for her. Parvati thinks to herself that since Shiva’s reflection cannot speak, he must have brought the villagers here on purpose for her sake.
Back in the divine realm, Lord Narayan tells Narad that Shiva has fulfilled his duty as a husband. Even though there were issues between him and Parvati, Shiva still made sure she was taken care of. Narad finally understands Shiva’s silent devotion.
Meanwhile, in the Asura world, Shukracharya brings Mandan forward. Swarth questions what makes Mandan so special. Mandan boldly claims he is the most powerful there. Swarth challenges him by grabbing his neck, but Mandan casts a spell, touching Swarth’s forehead and turning him into his slave. Mandan commands Swarth to let him go, and Swarth obeys. Diti is impressed by Mandan’s magical power and says that with him, they can win without even fighting. Shukracharya then tells Mandan to release Swarth, and Mandan complies. Swarth returns to normal. Diti then says that Mandan will be the one to stop Devi Parvati’s sacred journey to the Jyotirlingas.
Back in the village, the women gently treat Parvati’s wounds while the sacred Karpur Gauram hymn plays. Parvati thanks them and tells them that her next stop is the Vaidyanath temple. She promises to pray for the villagers when she reaches there. One of the ladies says they don’t want anything in return but humbly asks her to speak to Lord Shiva on their behalf. The villagers then send her off with heartfelt blessings.
As Devi Parvati prepares to leave, an elderly woman stumbles while trying to bow to her. Parvati quickly holds her and helps her stand. Miraculously, the old woman feels healed and energized. She thanks Parvati and says she expected nothing in return. Parvati acknowledges their kindness and promises that both she and Lord Shiva will bless anyone who helps the pilgrims on this holy journey.
On the other hand, Mandan declares that he will make sure Parvati returns to Kailash and never reaches the Vaidyanath temple. Shukracharya blesses him for his mission.
Devi Parvati then arrives at a pond and learns that it contains sacred Ganga water. She steps into it, and immediately, huge waves rise in the water. The devotees nearby are shocked and wonder what’s happening. Even Devi Parvati is puzzled by the sudden surge. Watching from afar, Diti questions if this is Lord Shiva’s doing. She believes he may have unknowingly helped them in their mission.
