Why do you celebrate greenery?

There is a legend that once Lord Shiva told Goddess Parvati about her past lives. Shiv Ji told Goddess that you took a total of 108 births to get me as your husband. Where in the 108th birth you took birth to the home of the Himalayas. You always used to be immersed in my devotion to get me, you just survived on leaves after sacrificing food and water. Shiva Ji further told Goddess Parvati that I became very happy with your hard penance and devotion and then I accepted you as a wife. On the day of Hariyali Teej Lord Shiva told this story to Goddess Parvati. Married and bachelor girls celebrate this festival.
