According to mythology, once Brahmaji and Vishnuji praised Lord Shankar. Lord Shankar was pleased and asked Brahmaji and Vishnu to ask for a bride. Brahmaji asked for a boon that you became my son. Lord Shiva told Brahma Ji that ‘I will fulfill your wish when you will not get success in creation and you will be angry, then I will arise from the same anger. Then I will be called the eleventh Rudra ‘. Then Lord Shiva asked Vishnu to ask for a boon, so Lord Vishnu only sought devotion as a boon. Shiva was very happy with this and he considered him half his body. Since then, they are worshiped in ‘Harihar’ form.
