Sati gives three promises to Lord Shiva. First that she will obey him, second that she will not tell a lie and third that she will not hide anything from him. Lord Shiva certifies the mantras written by Rishi Atharva and names them “Atharva Veda”. Lord Brahma's sons come and protest against Lord Shiva. They challenge Shiva to prove his ability to certify a creation as Veda.
