During the churning of the ocean for the nectar of immortality, a deadly poison emerged, threatening all of creation. The gods and demons, engaged in their quest for the nectar, were horrified by the poison's potential for destruction. In this dire situation, they turned to Lord Shiva for help. Shiva, in a selfless act to protect the universe, decided to consume the poison. As he swallowed the poison, his consort Parvati, realizing the imminent danger to his life, quickly intervened by holding his throat. This act prevented the poison from descending further and neutralized its lethal effects but turned Shiva's throat blue. This selfless act saved the cosmos and earned Shiva the name “Neelakunt”, the blue-throated one, symbolizing his sacrifice and the preservation of cosmic balance.
