According to the legend, once Goddess Parvati expressed her desire to play Chausar in front of Mahadev. Bholenath accepted the proposal of Devi. The game of backgammon began.

Parvati ji gets worried seeing this. When Kartikeya came to know these things, he reached to take back all the things from Mother Parvati, but the goddess refused to give the things according to the rules of the game, then the game started between Goddess Parvati and Kartikeya, in which the mother lost. Kartikeya went back with all the belongings of Shankarji. The goddess was troubled by the separation from her husband, then after hearing the grief of the mother, Ganesha himself reached Bholenath to play the game.

Ganpati ji also defeated father Shiva in the game of backgammon. When Ganapati told the news of the happiness of his victory to his mother, she told him to bring his father back to Kailash. Ganapati ji tried again but Shiva did not agree and this time Ravana, a devotee of Bholenath, scared away Ganesha’s vehicle Mushak in the form of a cat. Shiva said that if Parvati ji would agree to play the game again, he would return.

Parvati ji accepted Mahadev’s proposal. Since Shankar had lost everything, Parvati asked him what he had to lose in the game. On this Naradji handed over his veena to Shiva. The special thing is that in this game, Lord Vishnu had assumed the form of dice by the wish of Bholeshankar. Now Bholenath started winning every time in the game.
Mother Parvati cursed Bholenath in anger
Ganpati ji understood the trick of Mahadev and Vishnu ji, when he told the whole story to the mother, she became very angry. At the same time Ravana tried to convince the mother. But his anger did not subside and in anger he cursed Bholenath that he would always have the burden of the Ganga’s stream on his head. At the same time, Ravana was also cursed for supporting Shiva in this game that one day only Lord Vishnu would end him.
