According to Shiv Puran, when there was just Sunya, and the universe was about to be Created, the Mahavishnu appeared with the god Brahma, they both were discussing regarding their powers and the administration of the universe. The conversation turned into an argument Right then, amidst the heated discussion, an inexplicable blazing pillar appeared in front of them, the stambh was seemed to penetrate deep down with the tip piercing into the skies beyond eternity. They both were Amazed by the view of this pillar, both the gods wondered about this third entity that stood there and challenging both of their supremacy.
Now their argument had stopped and they started discussing how to find out more about this new entity, concurrently a voice came from the stambh and asked them to find the end of it and whoever find the end will be considered as the superior one, after listening to this proposal, god Vishnu went down whereas god brahma went up to find stambhs end, they both returned few moments later Both tried tirelessly but couldn’t locate the top or the end. When they both gave up, both Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu felt humbled and came back to the centre of the stambh from where they started and they found Lord Shiva manifesting in front of them.
God Shiva was in his avatar , where he stated that He is the destroyer, and particularly as the destroyer of all things. The holy trinity was assembled and was ready to create this universe and the Jivan Chakra Begain.
