[Advaita-l] A question on a dialogue in the Madhaviya

[Sarvam Khalvidam Brahma]

Namaste Subbuji.
>From the Puranas we know that Lord Shiva performed austerities as an
ascetic for a long time, and afterwards he took Grhasthasrama with Mother
Parvati. How is this instance considered in tradition? Is it treated as an
exception to the below dharma?

------------------------------

Such a version would open the case of the Sannyasin taking up the life of a
householder. This is not permitted in Dharma, as we know, even from
Shankara's own Sutra Bhashya.
