Aparna , a Hindu mythological character

I am not talking about the person named " Aparna " . I am writing this blog article to say where I have come across " Aparna " as a character in Hindu mythology . We all know that Sati is the wife of God Shiv . I know all will say Parvati is the wife of God Shiv . Even that is also true . Parvati is the reincarnation of Sati . Sati was the daughter of King Daksha . She has grown up by listening to the stories about God Shiv . She had decided to get married to God Shiv . But her father didn't agree with his daughter's decision . That's why Sati meditated or performed tapasya to please God Shiv . She was performing hard kind of tapasya . First she started tapasya by only eating leaves . Later she moved to the stage where she stopped eating leaves also. That time she was known by the name " Aparna " . In Sanskrit Parna means leaf . A - parna means without leaf as Sati performed tapasya by not eating even the leaf. She had pleased God Shiv . She got married to him against her father's consent . This made king Daksha to get angry . He was doing an auspicious ritual or homa . He invited each and every gods and angels . But he didn't invite God Shiv . Sati came to know of it . She wanted to participate in the ritual with her husband , God Shiv . But Shiv refused to accompany her as he was not invited and forbidden Sati also from attending . But Sati was adamant and went to attend the ritual alone . But king Daksha was furious by seeing Sati . He insulted both Sati and her husband God Shiv . Disheartened by her father's behaviour , Sati entered the fire ( set ablaze herself ). She was reincarnated as Parvati and later again married God Shiv .
