Why does Shiva stays in graveyard?
Once there was a heated disussion between Shiva and Parvati in Kailasa. Parvati in rage asked Shiva to leave Kailasa as it is her house. Shiva that moment itself, came out of Kailasa. But where to go? Vainkunta is God Vishnu's place. Sathyaloka is God Brahma's place. He can't go to either of them. Now he started to think deeply.
Shiva engrossed in his own thoughts, Narada who was passing by saw him. He came near Shiva and asked him what had happened? Then Shiva explained him what had happened. As now he is not having any place to stay , he is thinking where to go.
By hearing this, Narada said Graveyard is the best place to stay as there is no one to disturb. Shiva also realised it is true that graveyard is the best place to stay. He went to graveyard and applied ash to his body and started doing meditation there. Thus, it is said that Shiva is Smashana Vaasi( resident of graveyard).
