3) Sudyumna again turned into woman. Once Śunaka and some other sages went to the great forest Kumāra Vana near Kailāsa to salute Śrī Parameśvara ignorant of the fact that just then Pārvatī and Parmeśvara were enjoying themselves. The sudden appearance of Śunaka and others was not relished by the divine couple, who were then naked. They therefore, pronounced the curse that anybody who entered the forest in future would be turned into a woman. (Bhāgavata).
