The great goddess Kali was dancing so furiously that she threatened to
control the whole universe. The gods begged Shiva for help to
overcome the goddess's power. Shiva challenged Kali, to a dance
competition and demanded that they meet in a palace made of gold where
all the gods could see the competition. At first the dance competition
is an even match, with perhaps Kali showing the most versatility.
Shiva, then, drops his earring to the dance floor, reaches down with
his hand and places it on the floor and standing on one hand jumps
around the earring on one hand and each time he jumps off the floor he
claps his hands together. Then he does a head stand with the earring
in the center of his head and spins around. He whirls around so fast
that his robe opens like a flower completely exposing his private
parts. Kali is dazzled by Shiva's performance and realizes that she
cannot or will not expose herself in a similar fashion. She then does
obeisance to Shiva and admits defeat. Shiva then pushes himself off
the floor puts on the earring and springs to his feet.
Then he gives Kali a look and says, "You got served bitch."
