According to a chapter of Malhari Mahatmya of the Brahmanda Purana, Martanda Bhairava manifested to destroy two demon brothers Malla and Mani who created havoc in heaven. The Saptarishis approached Lord Shiva for protection who absorbed the powers of the Sun into him and took the Bhairava form, Goddess Parvati also joined Lord Shiva as Adishakti Kali or Martanda Bhairavi or Mhalsa. There are scripts which describe that Ganga, who is also Lord Shiva’s wife joined the battle as Bhanai. Nandi transformed into a white horse and the trident of Lord Shiva became a sharp sword. He led an army of gods, illuminating like the sun, three-eyed, with a crescent moon on his forehead.
