Daksha curses God

शिवेन दक्षविरोधो नाम षड्विन्शोऽध्याय
 
Shiva Daksha opposition Chapter 26
 
दक्ष उवाच |
 
Daksha said (to the assembly)
 
रुद्रो ह्ययं यज्ञ बहिष्कृतो मे वर्णेष्वतीतोऽथ विवर्णरूप |
देवैर्न भागं लभतां सहैव स्मशानवासी कुलजन्महीनः || 18 ||
 
Resident of crematoria, without any family or birth, this Rudra, beyond any caste (varna), in a form free of colour, is rejected by me from this sacrifice, and will not get a part unlike other Devas.
 
This curse is worthless but invites a heavy counter-curse.
