Daksha who was overly indulged by Brahma, became blinded by arrogance due to thepredominance of Rajo Guna in his mind. He had no respect or devotion for Thee andwas unfortunately without any peace of mind. Due to this taint in his nature, hedeveloped a hatred for Lord Siva, who too is a form of Thee and projected his hatredby insulting his own daughter, Sati,
