A story is being told behind the mother coming to Mangadu and weighing him. Once in Kailasa, Umadevi came behind Shiva and closed both his eyes with her two hands. In just a moment, all the worlds went dark and trembled. Then Shiva did not want to hurt Umadevi to remove her hands. At the same time, all living beings should be protected.

Immediately Lord Shiva formed an eye in his forehead, opened that eye and gave light to all the worlds. As a result, all the worlds became conscious again.

Even though Umadevi closed her eyes playfully and thus all the living beings in Sakaloka were suffering, Lord Shiva wanted to search for Umadevi too and put all the worlds in distress, so he took her birth in Bhuloka and said that after doing penance for him in a dense forest, she can return to Kailasa. According to Swami Anathi, Ishwari who reached Bhuloka performed intense penance under a mango tree, kindling fire from the panchabhutas and chanting Shivapanchakshari mantra. Thus Ammavaru, who was in yoga meditation, kept intensifying her penance day by day, thinking of Lord Shiva.
