• The Sanskrit word “Kaam” is transliterated loosely to English by the word “Desire”. This means that Kam Dev, then, is the Hindu god that is associated with Desire that is similar to the Cupid in the western mythology. 
• In the aftermath of the demise of his former wife Sati Shiva, God Shiva was determined to stay an ascetic by denying the joys and pleasures of the life. Moreover, one demon named Tarakasura, used this knowledge to the greatest advantage.
•  He did Tapasya and begged Lord Brahma to bless with two boons. One boon ensured that no one made by Brahma will be able to kill him. The second boon ensured Tarakasura that nobody other than Shiva’s son could be able to kill him. 
• The boon gave him immortality, as Shiva until then had no any children. His decision not to remarry again and be in a state of asceticism, was to ensure there were nobody who would be able to kill Tarakasura. 
• In the spirit of his invincibility, Tarakasura wrested control over all demon races. Tarakasura became their leader unquestioned and unleashed a reign of terror across the heavens, hell and on the earth. 
• Other Gods were left helpless in the face of the power of Tarakasura. The only way to save them was make Lord Shiva to end his celibacy vow and have a baby. 
• It was extremely difficult, given the fact the fact that there is no than an ascetic of the universe that could match the devotion to which Lord Shiva engaged in his prayer. In a state of complete bounds by his solitary devotion, the Gods were enthralled by Kam Dev. 
• They begged Kam Dev to unleash his power to help Lord Shiva. An angry Kam Dev was unable to agree initially, but for benefit of everyone who was sacred and being a victim of the oppression of Tarakasura and his tyrannical king, he agreed to the responsibility. 
• The goddess Parvati was found by Kam Dev as well as her on a pilgrimage to Mount Kailash- where Lord Shiva was in deep meditation. With his artwork, Kam Dev managed to bring spring to Kailash. With a bounty of flowers, birds and bees, the landscape within Kailash became an idyllic paradise. 
• Goddess Parvati was seen merrily cruising around bowers, and Kam Dev aimed his arrow of love and launched it into Lord Shiva’s centre. The arrow struck its goal and Lord Shiva’s meditation was ended. 
• He was captivated by the beautiful surroundings as well as the beauty of Parvati However, it became apparent that spring was not real and that he was deceived. 
• Furious at the fraud, the man looked around and discovered Kam Dev hidden behind the trees in the delight garden. Kam Dev realized he had been taken in, yet was overcome with terror and was unable to react or seek forgiveness.
•  Lord Shiva’s volatile temper erupted into the sky without a trace and his ‘third ‘ eye of destruction popped open. The power that was released by this eye instantly diminished Kam Dev to dust. 
• After his anger has subsided and Goddess Parvati shares with him the details what happened, Shiva requisitions her assistance in the process of reviving Kam Dev.
•  His body has been destroyed. Kam Dev gets revived with no form, and then is referred to as the ‘Ananga Dev who is with no body. As time passes, the devotion among God Shiva and goddess Parvati grows and engulf.
