Hari (Lord Vishnu) goes visiting Hara (Lord Shiva). Noticing him from a distance, Hara (who usually moves naked) covers himself with piece of elephant skin hurriedly and uses a snake passing by for a belt and comes out to greet Hari. But seeing Garuda the vulture vehicle of Hari, the horrified snake runs away; cover falls down leaving Hara all bare! May such Hara bless you all!
